D-Derek? Alex? S-Sollux?

Sh-Shepard?

Is... is something wrong? Something... d-doesn't quite f-feel right...

[There's a pause. If you pay close attention, light, panicked breathing can be heard.]

Is everyone all right?

[Then, there's a longer, heavier pause here.]

T-Talia?

[No, she has no idea Talia's back, and awake, and projecting, but she' ( Read more... )

[Well her tone is definitely unmistakable and Alex is quick to reply.]

Chloe? What's going on?

[Concerned Alex is concerned.]

ghostly_stutter August 31 2011, 23:02:08 UTC

A-Alex!

[Hear the relief in her voice?]

I--I don't know. I-it just f-feels like... something is wrong. Do you--do you not feel it, too?

[That could mean this was a poltergeist at work. Or a demon--or undead. Maybe something else. Chloe draws her arms around herself, and shudders. Please don't be the dead.]

I--

[There's a pause, followed by harsh breathing, and suddenly Chloe is whispering and rocking on her bed, in her room, leaning close to the journal as she stares wide-eyed at her surroundings.]

C-can I... C-can I t-talk to you? H-here?

[Looks like it was time to face the music.]

allthesame2me August 31 2011, 23:22:32 UTC

[He hears the relief, yes, but that doesn't at all negate the fact that she sounded terrified and is stuttering terribly. Neither of which is going to help him feel any better about whatever's happening.]

I don't no .. [Not yet, anyway .. His brows knit together as her breathing kicks up a notch. Yeah, Chloe, this isn't calming him down at all.]

You're in your room?

[He was already heading that way, so he hoped so. He's taking the stairs two and three at a time.]

Daaaw T^T ghostly_stutter August 31 2011, 23:29:53 UTC

[Chloe's trying to fight back the panic filling her--really she is. It doesn't help that she's alone right now, and has no idea why her senses are on high alert.]

Y-y--yes.

[Her words are breathy and cut off simply from fear.]

*Sollux sounds very not-happy.*

It's nothing, try to ignore it and hope she remembers how to shut the fuck up soon.

audio ghostly_stutter August 31 2011, 23:04:24 UTC

Sh-she? Nothing?

Sollux... wh-what's going on?

Re: audio thii2ii22tupiid August 31 2011, 23:08:51 UTC

Its Talia, she probably died and came back.

*He says this rather matter-of-factly, aside from the pissy tone he can't get rid of yet.*

audio ghostly_stutter August 31 2011, 23:11:38 UTC

[Insert Chloe panicking and mentally stuttering so badly she can't say anything, just stares at the page. Said so matter of fact. Back? Died.

...So it wasn't a ghost Chloe was sensing...?]

((>.< This could be the worst possible way Kevas finds out. Ouch. If he reads this.))

[PING!]

Talia! Where!?

T^T Kevaaaas ghostly_stutter August 31 2011, 23:08:12 UTC

K-K-K-Kevas?!

[Oh, no. Please don't do this to her. Please don't make her do this to him.]

((So, next tag will have to wait for an up-date on the Jack log, I'm afraid. Chloe should find out what happened to Talia. It will be angst and perfect. Problem is, she won't know if she's contacting a ghost, or what, so... FUN. And... if you want, Chloe can explain what happens here.))

[Hi, Chloe, have a very concerned werewolf.]

Where are you?

[Audio] ghostly_stutter September 1 2011, 06:32:43 UTC

[Hee, yay!]

Derek.

[All the relief in the world is in that one name.]

I-In my room.

[And she waits, knowing he'll be there, and feels a little bit easier for that fact.]

[Audio] --> [Commentlog] sociopathicwolf September 1 2011, 07:46:25 UTC

Two seconds.

[And it really isn't much longer than that before he's outside her room. He doesn't bother knocking before he opens the door, assuming that telling her he was coming was enough of an announcement. Derek nudges the door shut behind him, looking at her with obvious worry.]

What happened?

[Commentlog] ghostly_stutter September 1 2011, 07:54:53 UTC

[Chloe jumps when he enters, head jerking toward the door, then she's rising from the bed and walking toward him, her facial expression saying everything and nothing at once.]

I--I don't know. Something's wrong, Derek.

[She stares up at him, clearly spooked.]

I--I woke up and--

Wh-what if I t-trapped spirits in their dead bodies again?

[Her demeanor crumbles. She thought she was finally getting a handle on her powers. Not they are fluctuating even more so than they used to--seemed to not work quite the same way as they used to--and she couldn't tell what was going on any more.]

Chloe! The hell is going on?

[audio] ghostly_stutter September 2 2011, 18:53:11 UTC

[A sigh of relief can be heard.]

S-so... you aren't hurt then? Or in danger?

Do you... do you feel it, too?

[audio] xenoshepherd September 6 2011, 21:36:08 UTC

I'm completely fine, but I don't know what's happening, so you need to describe what it is to me, okay?

[audio] ghostly_stutter September 7 2011, 03:17:41 UTC

[A stuttered breath of air leaves Chloe's lungs, then she inhales deeply, trying to find her center of calm.]

I--I-I don't know. What it is.

Something's wrong. I--I can feel it. B-but if you can't, then... m-maybe it's not real. Or not...

[Not about the living, in any case.]

It--it feels like someone is hurt, or in danger. Like something bad happened. S-sounds crazy, but...
