DAY 6 (morning) Complex Population: 27 It's 8AM, and you wake from that deep, dreamless sleep that enforces curfew as always.

It seems that someone was busy during the night. — This post is for the second day as defined in the schedule.

So this is the other personality?

[ honestly she just figured he was in a bad mood. weird. ]

I'll go back to the apartment after this...but it's not as though any of us want to deal with the questions we'll get more than once. Ugh...what a pain this is.

[puffing]

Alfendi. I don't care if you're feeling pissy or not. Shut the hell up.

[ NICE TO MEET YOU TOO. if Bigby was in any mind to pay attention to his and Alice's petty bickering, he would definitely want to find out what the hell crawled up their ass and made them so aggressive towards one another, Nice Alfendi or no.

he pats around his bloodied pants for the slim chance that his cigarettes were on him, taking the risk of causing even more tearing in his shoulder wound while doing so. of course he didn't have his cigarettes on him. they must have spilled out at some point during the confrontation. with a deep sigh, he uses his one good arm to rub at his temples, trying his hardest to get in control of himself. ]

Either way, at least... at least he decided to just go after me. Could have very well tried killing the entire apartment if he wanted.

[ is that him showing some appreciation that they were all okay? d'aww. ]

[selfdenying]

Tell that to yourself, moron.

[He snaps, but he doesn't seem all that angry about Bigby saying that - he just narrows his eyes, peeved. He's really not feeling well enough to exert enough energy to do anything else besides throw insults back.]

Odd though, that he chose a guy like you. Ha, you didn't paint some kind of target on your back, did you, Bigby?

[OH LOOK, HE CAN REMEMBER NAMES. He's just being irritable and forgetful for the other ones, he'll catch up eventually.]

[liven]

Yes, that is lucky...perhaps he was only permitted to kill one person, and opted for the perceived biggest threat? One has to wonder why they've only been killing once nightly, after all...they could simply slit all our throats and have done with it.

[ being that. they are all asleep. ]

...Again, sloppy work. If you must kill someone in their sleep, have the decency to do it so they die on the first stroke. Still, it's good he was sloppy...it'd be annoying if you were to die.

[ that's as close to aw she cares as she's getting re: it being good he lived i guess ]

[puffing]

Tell what to myself? You came to me expecting me to tal― never fucking mind.

[ Alfendi's always been a bit of a vulnerable, easily offended guy. but this version? oh my god, just find the sword and stab him again, this time aiming a little closer to his heart like what was probably intended. ]

Thanks, I guess? [ to Shijima, who has a horrible time showing some genuine relief at Bigby not having been killed. yet. ] They were going after kids for the most part... and I don't think I painted as big a target on me as someone like Elizabeth or the lawyer. No way of telling.

[selfdenying]

You know what I meant.

[Ergh. He lets out a frustrated sigh - look, he isn't thinking right because of [SPOILERS] and ingesting fountain water....give him some slack.....]

What I find interesting is that they had to essentially use a hitman to take you out! Don't you feel honored? [He says, sarcastically.] Which means that perhaps the people who ran the show had enough strength to take out some weak kids and yet didn't have enough strength to take out a man like you, so they had to use someone else for the job.

[selfsufficiency]

Everyone else who's been targeted so far was so weak that they died. But you were strong enough to survive. ♡

[There's no small amount of admiration in Alice's voice when she makes this observation - Bigby was higher on her list of people she liked than most people in the Complex already, but this has only shot her opinion of him up even higher.

Because successfully weathering an attack and ripping someone's throat out is admirable when you're a maniac like Alice i gUESS.]

Can you think of anyone you might have made an enemy of during either of the last two trials? Well - anyone who's still alive, I mean.
