[Ned peeks around shiftily. He regards the camera suspiciously]

It's... quiet. Normal.

This is weird. Right? Tell me I'm not the only one who thinks this is a weird flood. I mean, usually it's full-on chaos and like, animals and babies and crying and liquor and stuff by this point.

M-maybe most of us got passed over this time?

I don't think it's weird. It's happened before.

I just - I thought it was weird when nobody knew what it was. When it looked like there might not even be a flood. Which would've been fine by me, honestly

Now... it looks like most people have figured it out.

That's it. How strange. Thank you.

... Yup. In case you hadn't heard the news: it's a truth flood.

I'm really not so fond of the idea of being forced to be honest. I mean, not that I'm a huge liar or anything! But, er. There are some things best kept to oneself, I guess.

I don't like the idea either. I generally don't lie but there are recent events I don't wish to speak of everything about.

No, it's a weird flood. I mean, the other stuff at least is up front about things. This is just. It has a potential to be. Maybe not bad, but. Definitely uncomfortable for some people.

...Uh. I'd ask you if you were all right but. I'm avoiding the whole. Questioning in general right now.

It just. Snuck up on me, is all.

Uh, yeah. I'm gonna have to agree on the 'uncomfortable' bit. I'm just. Kind of a private person, I guess. In some ways, at least, and this is just... totally going to mess with that.

I'm okay, all things considered. I hope you're doing all right.

Yeah, snuck up on everyone, seems like. And I can totally understand that, I mean. It's not like anyone would like blurting things out without thinking about it, that's just. Kind of asking for trouble, you kn- ...Ahem.

And I'm okay. ...I think.

[Ned nods a couple of times] It's definitely asking for trouble.

... 'You - ' Er. That is. I'm glad. If you want to talk, um. As you can probably guess, I'm a pretty good secret keeper.

[And then there was Murphy. Wandering along trying to avoid people she doesn't want to talk to right now while on the way back from the gym.

Except it's hard to avoid them when they are three people and telepathic. BRB ducking through this convenient door that happens to be a closet.]

[Oh, hey. There's Ned, lurking behind a mop and trying to get a cobweb off of his shoulder. He pauses, blinks at Murphy and after a moment lifts a hand.]

... Hi.

[She looks up--waaaay up--and raises a hand in reply.] Hey. Did you have plans for this closet, or can I share for a minute?

[LALALA SPAM] easy_aspie August 15 2010, 05:38:43 UTC
I did have a plan, and it's to stay here until my inmate isn't lurking in the hallway. You are - you're very welcome to it - the closet, I mean - I'm all for equal-opportunity evasion, and it's definitely big enough for two, I'm Ned, by the way, nice to meet you.

[He offers a hand; a glance down at it reveals that it's got a thick smudge of dust on it. He wipes his hands on his jeans, then offers it again]

That is the nicest curse I have ever read, mortal. I quite like it. Perhaps I shall call myself that.

Who are you?

easy_aspie August 14 2010, 20:17:45 UTC
It would be kind of an ungainly nickname, though. Er - are you... not? Mortal?

I'm Ned. N-nice to meet you?

That's, er. Not a question that you need to answer. Just. Yeah. Never mind.

No. I am a Goddess. I am Persephone.

You are you, Ned.

You seem rather sweet indeed. You are a warden, yes?

Okay, my Greek mythology's kind of rusty, but - flowers-and-sunshine, forced-to-spend-half-the-year-in-the-underworld Persephone?

Oh, um. Thank you very much. Yes, I'm a warden here. Are you a warden, too?
