day one

[judgejudy]

DAY 1 Complex Population: 35 ( October 3 - October 6 ) It's 8AM, and you wake from that deep, dreamless sleep that enforces curfew as always. There's breakfast avaliable in the cafeteria if you want it, as well as meals from 11AM-12PM and 7PM-8PM, but otherwise? The day is yours. Take your time to explore the complex, relax, and enjoy each others' company, as who knows what the next day has in store? Though as you explore, you may notice that there's a new door unlocked and a new place for you to spend the day. One of the locked doors on the second floor is now open, so residents can partake in the clean, modest gym if you're the kind to keep in shape. — This post is for the first day as defined in the schedule. This post is for general mingling and CR buidling, and will not include significant plot interaction. character statuses character profiles private conversations

bathroom

[puffing]

[ it is only right that Bigby has a fateful encounter with Veronica when she is repairing the one and only broken bathroom stall door. after all, he is the one who broke it. another morning, another attempt at taking a shower that doesn't culminate in further property damage. hopefully.

and at least this time he is still dressed, not given the opportunity to disrobe before noticing her putting in some work on the hinges that have already seen better days. there's the longest of sighs from him as he feels a tad bit of guilt, but for the most part, he is extremely tickled that this is occurring right before his eyes. ]

Uh, hey. You don't need to do that...

[Veronica turns her head when Bigby approaches, stopping her work momentarily. He's lucky she doesn't know about his involvement in this, or he would get quite the scolding and potential punching! But, for now, he's safe.]

I know I don't, but I want to. [She turns around, examining her handiwork.] If we're going to be stuck here, we should make sure to keep it in one piece for the time being. I'm all for property destruction, but only if it's for a good reason.

[puffing]

[ don't count him out just yet. he's half tempted to tell her the moment he had seen what she was doing. for the time being, however, he would bite his tongue on that little egg of knowledge. ]

You want to? [ he leans against the column between the shower stalls across from the one she is working to fix. ] I don't know. Seems highly plausible that it was broken for a good reason. To me, anyway.

[ it's hard to hold back a smile. ]

[onepunchgirl]

For a good reason. [She repeats flatly, not really seeing that point.] I fail to see any reason to break a bathroom stall. Either someone did it accidentally because they were pissed off about, I don't know, the water not being hot enough? Or they broke it on purpose because they're a dumbass.

[puffing]

Maybe there was a fight? [ forget that the damage was clearly made from inside the stall. he's pretending to not be involved in this, shut up. ] I don't know. I'm a big guy and I thought the water was hot enough. For a place of captivity, anyway.

[ Bigby decides that he isn't going to outright lie about his involvement in this. he's got ethics, after all! doesn't mean he can't be vague as all fuck, tho. ]

Being a dumbass seems more likely. Either way, do you usually find yourself fixing other people's fuck ups?

[onepunchgirl]

Yeah, it's kind of my job.

[Well, sort of. Scribes in the Brotherhood do normally need to fix the fuckups of either the people who managed the tech before them, or the Knights and Paladins who are too careless when handling equipment.]

Personally, I don't care if there was a fight or if they were an idiot or whatever. I just don't want us breaking things here, unless it actually serves a purpose. Like getting us out of this building.

[puffing]

[ kind of her job. huh. Bigby would like to give her shit for thinking her job would apply in a place like this, but then he would just be a hypocrite. he's already made it a habit of going around and questioning people about what they know or think they know of this place. that's kind of his job as well. ]

Well. Let's think of it this way. No one breaks anything, you would find yourself getting pretty damn bored. [ FIGHTING THE URGE TO SMILE HERE. he doesn't usually avoid outright spitting out what happened, but... definitely going to see where this one goes. ] Anyway. Need a hand or you think you got this by yourself?

[ he did quite a bit of damage to the stall. kind of proud, actually. no need for superhuman wolfy powers or nuffin'. ]

[onepunchgirl]

[She snorts.]

I guess that's true. I'd still rather we not break things just to give me something to do though. [she says, not knowing in the future what she will be a part of as of yet....] I think I'll be fine, but thanks for the chat.
