DAY TWELVE
 Complex Population: 13 You wake from that deep, dreamless sleep that enforces curfew as always. However, it's completely dark. There's only the rumbling of a generator, and it's not clear what time it actually is. Maybe you should step outside to see what's going on. ic rulebook character statuses character profiles private conversations graveyard |

...okay, everyone. We're going to have to stop standing around if we want to escape.
But like Jacky [And Rhys, but she's petty and not acknowledging that] said, if you don't want to face what's out there or if you'd just rather stay with the rest of the people who have died, dying before we leave will take you there.
I don't mind having blood on my hands, so if it's what you want, I'll kill you. But if you want to live, then let's get moving and do what we have to do. Once we leave this place we can't come back.

[Alice? knows he's pretty much deadweight with his leg as it is, but...]
After all of this work to get here, I'm pretty sure I'd rather be miserable out there than just up and die here. Whenever everyone else's ready, I'm ready.
no subject
[She glances briefly at his leg, then chuckles.]
If you don't mind a few more hits to your attractive male protagonist pride, I'll carry you until you can walk on your leg again. ♡
[He did save her life - it's only fair if she helps out now.]
no subject
I'll get back up on my feet soon as I can so I can go back to being as dashing as I'm supposed to be.
[He's mostly fond though; they're down to only a select few, and Alice has been there from the get-go. If nothing else, he's grateful to her for being a constant in this crazy nonsense.]
no subject
[Or serve as furniture for her. She's made people do it in the past... unless that was a fake memory? Who knows. She'll do it for real, though, once his leg is healed.]
I'll be looking forward to it!
no subject
[ or if she's alive or dead, but details?? ]
It's not like it will be so difficult to survive. There's always some way...humans are like cockroaches.
no subject
[Well... probably a lot of bad things. But even if the terrible things Alice remembers experiencing prior to coming here are all false, surviving this place is enough of a crash-course in survival for anyone, she thinks.]
Besides, none of us have actually seen the outside yet. If our memories have been messed with, it's possible things aren't as bad as they seem out there. Or maybe they are, but... it's better to find out for ourselves than let someone tell us what to believe, I think.
no subject
[ though tbh she still super doesn't care about anyone outside of the few people she decided she liked but as long as those people are interested in keeping the others alive she's like, obligated to help, kind of. ]
no subject
She just doesn't mind letting them live as long as it doesn't interfere with getting the people she likes out. So... Alfendi is their moral compass here? Yikes, that's scary.]
I bet we can make ourselves scarier than whatever's out there. ♡
no subject
We don't even have to try to do that...
no subject
[Whatever's waiting for them out there beware, this group of nutjobs is coming for you.]
no subject
[Says Alfendi, piping up. Alfendi has like 0.1 morals, how did this even happen, who allowed him to become the moral compass.]
We wouldn't want you two getting hurt...but really, if we have to do what we need to survive, we'll do it.
[SEE, WHO ALLOWED HIM TO BECOME THE MORAL COMPASS]
no subject
Who's extreme? I'm always the exact right amount of intense.
[n...o]
no subject
[Look, he needs to change the topic, because they didn't address any of this in the panic of everyone escaping.]
Very quickly, but we need information from Ciel. What did he tell you? We hardly know why we were here or....what we even are, after all. Did you find something else other than Judy's brain?
no subject
[Alice shrugs lightly. She was going to wait to say this until they'd made it out, but...]
First he was trying to kill me, and then Judy was trying to kill us both, so he told me just enough to give me a headache so I'd know he was telling the truth and I figured I could get the rest out of him once we were out of danger.
He said that the memories people have been getting back are fake - we've heard that already... and he called this place a "vault".
no subject
[Vaults are for keeping valuable things after all.]
So...if our memories are fake, then are we just clones? Other people? I don't know what to think anymore...
[IS PROFESSOR LAYTON NOT HIS ACTUAL DAD??????]
no subject
[She shrugs.]
I don't think we have all the information yet. But that last area should be unlocked now, right? It wasn't before.
