and mortal men and all things

Characters: The Disciple and you!
Setting: Room 2-05 and everywhere!
Format: Starting in action, will match!
Summary: The Disciple arrives and goes investigating.
Warnings: None at the moment?

[The Disciple awakes with a start, and panic sets in as she struggles to move for those first moments of being paralyzed. The moment she's free, she springs up and out of the bed in a flurry of sheets and hair. She stares around wildly, wondering if she's been captured despite her caution. In the next few minutes, she finds the letters and reads them, and then locates the chest and changes her clothing.

She slips out of the room cautiously and down the hallway, keeping herself pressed to the wall to keep as out of view as she can. But it's a little hard to hide when there's nothing in the halls to hide behind.]

Di! [He sees you sneaking there, and he doesn't really care. He's trotting towards her, big smile on his face] You're back.

[Her shoulders tense at the voice. It can't be- His death is still so fresh in her mind, she must be hearing things. Still, she turns to look, and if her heart could stop it would.]

Sign...less? But how? [Her feet move before her mind can register his words and she rushes to close the distance.]

[benigncancer]

[He blinks at her shock, but catches her eagerly and holds her close. Did she forget...?]

Hey, hey there... it's okay. I'm still alive, and everything's fine.

[evangeleo.livejournal.com]

[She blinks back tears that threaten to fall from the relief washing over her. He's alive, he's really...]

Oh, Signless. How is this even possible? Not that I'm not thrilled, of course! But I thought- I saw-

[Aradia's making her way back to her room when she catches sight of the adult troll sneaking through the corridors. Part of her thinks it's probably a bad idea to disturb her but she also can't let a fellow troll seem so distressed and not say something, even if they're sweeps older than her.

Still, she maintains a safe distance before she speaks]

Um...excuse me. Are you all right?

[evangeleo.livejournal.com]

[Shoot, she really can't hide in these halls! She turns to regard the younger troll, a little tense.]

I suppose so. As all right as I can be after reading what I found in that respiteblock.

You are...?

[megid0-maiden.livejournal.com]

Oh, you mean the world being destroyed? Yes, that's something you never do get used to.

[First Alternia, then their Earth and now, apparently, the entirety of paradox space, at least as far as SGRUB reaches.

At the question, Aradia shrinks back a little, wary of the adult greenblood for now]

I'm sorry. My name is Aradia. I arrived here only a few days ago myself...it seemed like you might need some help and I couldn't just turn a blind eye.

[In there room Anya spends a good few moments just staring blankly at Disciple, she's never seen anything like her before and Anya's convinced her eyes are playing tricks on her. She takes out her phone and snaps a picture of Disciple, but the horns and gray skin remain]

Horns...?

[evangeleo.livejournal.com]

[That makes two of them, because the Disciple is staring at her in confusion and wonderment.]

You're pink, and have no horns. Why is that?

[brbtxting.livejournal.com]

[she shrugs]

I'm human.

[The Disciple notices Redglare and freezes accordingly. She stares across the hall at her, not moving and not speaking. What should she do? This could be dangerous.

Still, she doesn't take off just yet. Something encourages her to stay.]

[forcingrins.livejournal.com]

Your stealth maneuvers could use some work.

[entropied]

[Yup, she sticks out like a sore thumb in all that black. The Handmaid raises her eyebrows, regarding the other troll disdainfully.]

What are you doing?

[evangeleo.livejournal.com]

[It's worth a try anyway! At least shadows work to her advantage. Quit judging her right this instant. She turns to look at the other troll.]

I should think it's obvious. I'm investigating.

[entropied]

You're doing a bad job.

[cabecilla.livejournal.com]

[Ah... now this is familiar. Hey Disciple, there's a rather scuffed up lowblood watching you a little ways down the hall. After a moment, he speaks, and it's clear in his voice how quietly bemused he is: ]

That uh... won't work, you know.

[evangeleo.livejournal.com]

[She pauses in her apparently really terrible sneaking, and turns to the voice. She looks relieved to see it's not a highblood.]

So I've gathered, but I'm afraid habits die hard. Are you alright?

[cabecilla.livejournal.com]

Hmm? [...momentarily confused]

[But oh right, he was kneed in the face the other day. It's kind of terrible that he's so used to being injured, welp] Yeah I'm uh... fine. But I guess, this is a good transition for me to tell you, there's a subjugglator around.

[Shion was slowly getting used to being here, more people had come all at once, and now there were quite a lot of people here. He spotted the troll coming down the hallway, she looked like she was trying to hide though.] Is everything alright?

[evangeleo.livejournal.com]

[She turns! Oh, it's another one of those pink creatures.]

Yes, as alright as it can be learning that my world is gone. Have you been here long?

[savedbyasong.livejournal.com]

Only a few days, it was a shock to me as well.

[consumedpast.livejournal.com]

Something troubling you?

[evangeleo.livejournal.com]

The destruction of my world is certainly troubling, wouldn't you say?

[consumedpast.livejournal.com]

That would depend on how much of an attachment you had towards it once it met its end.

Though I doubt that it has truly been destroyed as we've been led to believe.
