[Sveta's got blood on her cheek and her hands, but she doesn't seem to notice. She's not in her room now, but rather, moving down the hallway.]

Neil...um...Neil Howie and Barron are hurt. They're...in my cabin. Level two. It shouldn't be far.

God...please hurry. Elle's there but...God...

[Filtered AWAY from her friends ( Read more... )

let's change things up, not homesick, all kinds of headaches, a murder of crows, don't want to be a bother..., where there is no darkness, hidden powers, angry sorceress

Yes, well...we cling to what we know. And what has worked in the past.

No. I have a lot of practice being stubborn.

And selfish.

I can be right there. What happened, Sveta?

[Infirmary Filter] greatlightother July 10 2011, 16:45:25 UTC

Barron stabbed him.

God...there was so much blood....I think...I think he might have punctured a lung. It went in through his ribs.

[Infirmary Filter] becauseheswill July 10 2011, 16:47:47 UTC

Alright. And Barron?

[Infirmary Filter] greatlightother July 10 2011, 16:53:12 UTC

He stabbed himself in the leg.

[Cooper's tired of waiting this out. People are dying or getting hurt - and he's already managed to shoot himself. In the foot. It's a very embarrassing story that won't be told until later. If ever. Instead of getting it seen to, it's wrapped up tight with duct tape. He can still move, at least, and once that video comes on, Cooper's on his way to the greenhouse, gun hidden in its holster.]

[Sveta had her arms wrapped around her legs as she stared at the flowers in front of her. She didn't know who, if anyone, would come. But death wasn't really something she had ever planned before. Not like this.

She ran her fingers through her hair, staring down at her communicator as she waited.]

[Spam!] fuckyoucynthia July 10 2011, 17:02:21 UTC

[He ignored the limp, detached himself from the pain and moved steadily to the greenhouse. It was almost surprisingly easy - or would have been, if he'd spared any thought for it. His attention was on Sveta, though - it wasn't that hard to find her. He was almost - almost - surprised that no one was with her.]

Sveta. [He drew his gun, keeping it half raised. It felt like he should say something, like he should mention - what? That when he looked at her right now, he could still see the little girl he'd taken out of O'Brien's room? That he didn't want to do this? It was all a waste. His hand tightened on the butt, just a little, and he lifted his arm to aim at her.]

No hard feelings.

[Spam!] greatlightother July 10 2011, 17:06:02 UTC

[She jerked, startled, and looked up to him with eyes brimming with tears. She couldn't help but be afraid as she stood up, her hands out to show she wasn't going to do any harm. She just didn't want to be sitting. She didn't want to be completely helpless.]

Please. [And she began to cry silently, staring at him with nothing but acceptance. She took a step back, more into the flowers, wanting to at least be somewhere...pretty. It was a desperate wish.]

Bloody hell. Look, that's not all humans, all right? I mean, yeah, it's a crap world, they're a crap race, but they also do good things.

private greatlightother July 10 2011, 16:59:14 UTC

I know that.

But they're just...getting worse, aren't they?

private breakmychest July 10 2011, 20:03:44 UTC

They're scared and stupid. What do you expect?

private greatlightother July 10 2011, 20:08:26 UTC

Not just now...in history. They don't get any better.

[Wanda is sitting down in Zero, bruised, battered and cried out.]

So you want to end this, but you won't end it yourself, or come down to Zero where the power dampers have a chance of ending it for you. You'd rather that everybody remember you as a martyr.

[She wipes her grubby cheeks with the back of a hand]

I'm seventeen years old. We've never met but you tried to kill me and told me I deserve it. I had to lock myself in Zero because you made my powers go crazy and start hurting people too. Because you hate me. Not the other way around.

You're the hateful one, Sveta. The crazy one. The one who has spread misery. I've never hated anyone before you did this to me.

Now get your ass down to Zero before some desperate bastard kills you.

[private] greatlightother July 10 2011, 17:20:46 UTC

I saw your suggestion before. I went there before I was here. Did it go away?

No. It's too far gone now.

I'm so sorry.

[private] scarlet_discord July 10 2011, 18:14:43 UTC

[Wanda hadn't noticed her down in Zero, but she kept having these episodes where she went away because being caged up was triggering something she didn't understand inside of her. And she just couldn't handle arguing right now. She couldn't stand the woman; was full of rage at her for cursing them all and then collapsing in a pile and refusing when people tried to get her to take it off. She wanted to scream "then go die, see if I care!" but she had used up all her spite on their first argument. At least death wouldn't be permanent. And the curse would be over soon.]

[She covered her face with her hands.]

I'm sorry too.

[private] greatlightother July 10 2011, 18:16:48 UTC

It's okay if you're not.

[Pause then...she turns it off.]
