[Unfortunately for him, Alex's body couldn't hold out to the reset - he falls asleep right around 6 PM this time. He's in a white room, similar to the outlook of the Facility but it's much simpler; it's an interrogation room. He walks across the floor of the empty space, save for the table and two chairs in the middle, and settles himself against ( Read more... )

[She's not going to ask, it isn't her business, but...]

Alex, are you okay?

faultlesscon June 6 2011, 01:11:10 UTC

[It's a shaky nod, but he's much more awake by this time.]

As fine as I can be - they're just dreams. [A pause.] Did I wake you?

togana_keiri June 6 2011, 01:15:28 UTC

[She lets out a few giggles and then covers her mouth.]

Um, no. Sorry, I'm-I haven't slept in like-a long time. So, you didn't wake me. I'm not laughing at you, I'm just really...really tired.

And dreams are...dreams. Nothing more.

faultlesscon June 6 2011, 01:27:18 UTC

[He stares for a few moments.] The reset is soon - then it'll be fine for you to sleep, it should be.

Mm. [Another nod but well, he saw Maka's dream. So he needs to ask.] ... You're alright?

togana_keiri June 6 2011, 02:13:20 UTC

I'll sleep a lot when that happens. Like...a lot.

[she blinks and has to figure out what he means, and when she does she sort of tenses a little.] Yeah, I'm alright. That was just...just something dumb.

faultlesscon June 6 2011, 03:30:29 UTC

Should I wake you up next week then? [He means it as a joke, really.]

We don't have to talk about it - none of my business, but I'm just checking up on you. [...He guesses.]

togana_keiri June 6 2011, 09:02:39 UTC

Maybe some time in the middle?

Thanks Alex. That means a lot. It's still...really fresh is all.

faultlesscon June 6 2011, 09:05:03 UTC

Well if I don't hear from you then, I'll try to.

It's alright, really - I get what you mean, if it stands for anything. [A nod and the corners of his lips turn up.]

togana_keiri June 6 2011, 09:16:09 UTC

Sounds like a good idea. Thanks.

I-uh, you too? I won't pry but-you're okay?

faultlesscon June 6 2011, 11:42:42 UTC

I think so. [He tries to offer her a smile over the feed.] Once this week is over, I'll be more than fine.

togana_keiri June 7 2011, 08:31:58 UTC

You're not alone in that. Let's just hope next week is better.

faultlesscon June 8 2011, 21:01:40 UTC

Hope is a nice idea, especially in this place.

togana_keiri June 9 2011, 08:25:43 UTC

It's something we can't afford to let go of.
