six.
Characters: Claudia Hortensia & OPEN
Setting: Floor 1 (or 48, 50, 101)
Format: Brackets preferred
Summary: Returning from her dead world
Warnings: TBA
[Waking up in the Tower again is—nice. Claudia wouldn't have ever thought she would find such a thing nice, but when she opens her eyes and finds herself in the dorm room, all she feels is a dim relief. It's been days—weeks?—since she's seen another living human being, and she thinks that if she had needed to stay on that planet any longer than she had, she would have gone insane.]
[...But she doesn't really have much response other than that. On her world, she had wandered like a ghost, but now that she's here again, she doesn't feel much differently than she did there. She doesn't know what she should feel or do. So, she just does what she would normally: get breakfast.]
[Really, heading down to the cafeteria is probably the most logical decision she could make, anyway. After more than a few days in that world, she lost track of time, and she's been here long enough to know she can likely tell how long she has been gone by what's being served there. This is quicker and simpler than trying to find someone she knows, then asking.]
[The selection of food makes it immediately clear what month it must be, and numbly, she thinks she couldn't have been gone too long, in that case. With the same shell-shocked detachedness that pervades her thoughts, she takes her pancakes and moves to find a place to sit, not as alert to her surroundings as she maybe should be.]
[Around meals, she'll linger here before and after she eats, as most of the people she would like to see now will have to pass through here at some point in the day. When she isn't in the cafeteria, she can be found performing her rounds in the graveyard or skulking around Floors 50 or 101.]

no subject
[And now she has to wonder if Riki really successfully recharged the Tower.]
What did Jason tell you?

no subject
[She hesitates, looking a bit guilty.]
It was because he wanted to ask us to recharge the Tower, and keep Jason from creating any more explosions.
no subject
[Claudia pauses as well, then, studying Assassin in silence for a moment.]
And whatever "recharging" entailed, that's why you're having trouble with your powers now?
[For as cool as Claudia's tone had been as she reasoned through situation, there's a faint note of fondness to it now.]
no subject
...Yes.
[She mutters in response to Claudia's question.]
I hope it will stop...
[Before she can finish her sentence, she suddenly blinks into the void.]
