"Nothing in particular." Kiana shrugged. "Sorry . . . I'm boring sometimes."

"Heh, same here." Rhi rubbed the back of her neck. "Honestly, I could just stay here and nap for most of the day."

Jack came to stand by the less-populated fire.
-------
Annie walked back down the hall again.

Kiana shrugged. "If you want to do that, I won't mind." ~~~ Lydia, after a moment or two, joined him. Rachel hung back a bit, listening to any thoughts there might be to hear. She didn't probe, didn't intrude- she just listened, careful and quiet, searching for anyone who might not be as willing to ignore them as Jack implied.

Rhi nodded, lying on her back. "But I feel bad just falling asleep..." -------
Anna hesitated as well, setting Champ down. The dog stayed by her feet, seeming apprehensive at the new place.

"I won't be offended." Kiana shrugged. She slid one hand under her pillow, crumpling the cord into her hand, and sliding it out again. "Trust me."

Rhi closed her eyes, sighing faintly. "Hopefully today will be quiet...we've already had a near-death experience. Don't need another."

Kiana refrained from mentioning that Rhi had been the main one almost dying. She still had a point. "Won't argue with that."

"You handled yourself well with Leonard, y'know," Rhi replied. "That dive-kick was pretty sweet." ~~~~ From his perch on the East building, Ven watched with a scowl. "What are you doing, Kiana..." He muttered. "I told you..." "People don't usually listen to you, bud," said his companion. "You've got a voice that people usually forget after a while." Ven turned with a glare. "Aren't you supposed to be hiding?" "Had to stop and rest my legs." Was the reply. "We're advancing the timetable. Be ready." With that, Charlie ran off.

Kiana grinned. "Thanks." Her expression saddened a bit, though her tone remained light. "I may or may not have practiced it a lot before I ended up here . . . it's a useful trick."
((. . . What. Ven. What even.)) ((. . . I like how Ven's name makes it look like that could be either a typo or a legitimate expression.))

Rhi nodded. "Yeah...it is a good thing to know, especially in this place."
((Welcome to the Facility, trust no one.)) ((*spends five minutes looking for the 'typo'* LOL found it!))

"Don't doubt it." Kiana maneuvered her handful of cord into her pocket. "Though I hope I don't need to use it too often . . ." ((Thanks a lot. ))

Rhi opened her eyes, twisting to look up at Kiana. "I hope so, too."

Kiana sighed. "At least we should have a break now, right? Since Leonard's dealt with?"

Post by WookieeElf on Apr 7, 2016 22:26:53 GMT
"Yeah, we should. Should be quiet until...after lunch, I think?" Rhi shrugged.

Kiana huffed. "Percy and Jason are still locked up, I think. Let's be realistic here. We have at least until after dinner."

Rhi chuckled softly. "Yeah. At least."
((*headdesk* No. Ideas. Waaaaaaaaah))

"Who knows, maybe we'll get lucky." Kiana smirked. "Maybe we'll have a whole 'nother day after today with no trouble."
((Ouch . . . d'you need to brainstorm? Or take a break?))

"That would be heaven." For added effect, she threw her arms out. "A whole day...nothing to worry about..."
((I dunno. I've never really helmed the main plot of an RP before, so I'm trying to figure out what I'm doing, and keep track of everyone *sigh* I'll be alright))

"No one trying to kill you . . . or attack you . . . or annoy you . . . nothing to do at all . . ." Kiana paused. "Actually, that might get boring eventually."
((Heh. I sympathize. 'Tis tricky at times.))

Rhi laughed softly. "Yeah, it would. We're kinda used to it here."
((And I'm off to dinner. Be back later!))

((Later! Enjoy dinner!))
"And life on the outside was usually pretty tense as well . . ." Kiana sighed. "Almost makes you wonder how we'd manage to adjust if we did get to go back to a normal life. Or, normal-ish . . ." Not that Kiana had ever managed such a thing, but . . .

Rhi shrugged. "It'll definitely be different. People will still look at us the wrong way. Some might publicly hate us. But we'll get by. If we can survive this place, we can survive the world."

"True." Kiana stared up at the patch of sky visible above the walls. "After all, in the world, if it gets too much, you can always run. Escape for a while."

"Escape..." Rhi murmured. "I love that word. It...it just holds so much promise."

"You don't know the half of it," Kiana said, almost under her breath. Louder, she added, "It definitely does."

"One day, we'll escape." Rhi's voice took on a dreamy tone. "I'll get a house, maybe with Luka, and a few of our friends. You're invited, too—we can build a cool roof-bed for you."

"I thought you were going to go back to your family when you got out." Kiana looked back down at Rhi. "I like this idea, though."
|

Post by WookieeElf on Apr 8, 2016 0:19:13 GMT
Rhi paused. "Well...only if they wanted me back. But I'm not giving up on Luka, or any one of my friends. I need them, and they need me—whether they'll admit that or not is up to them."

Post by Leilani Sunblade on Apr 8, 2016 0:21:06 GMT
"That's good. That you're not giving up on them." Kiana grinned faintly. "Even if they won't admit they need you, they'd probably admit they'd miss you too much to say goodbye, at least for good."
