[ Danger! Danger, Will Robinson! The dome is under attack and whether you like it or not, all inmates need to gather at the designated safe zones! Just follow the flashing lights and try not to go deaf from the blaring sirens.

And then? Then we wait and pray that the dome glass doesn't break. ]

Caliborn → Calliope
[info]ophiuchus
2013-05-25 09:17 pm UTC (link)
[Caliborn was among ones who had to be tasered—watching the crack in the dome was too fascinating. So now he's here, which, in his not-even-remotely-humble opinion, is the most boring option available.]

[While he's awake, he can be found clutching Calliope's purple hoodie in his fist. The arts center would have been better, he thinks, so that he could have ruined her outfit. Much of his time is spent wandering around in a quasi-suspicious manner, complete with shifty eyes. Even if he's really just looking for scissors or paint, no one has to know that.]

[At some point, the cherry-blooded cherub gives up and locks himself in one of the private study rooms to take a nap. A shockingly calm take on a life-and-death situation, maybe, but it's his "sister's" turn to be awake.]

[Rubbing at the fading taser wound, Calliope assesses the situation as soon as she wakes up. The vibrations are ominous and terrifying, and although she is worried for her own sake, she's going to stay positive. The wardens brought them here to keep them safe, and so she reasons that everything will be alright. Calliope then wonders if her friends are in this building, too.]

[Half an hour after her "brother" stepped in, the lime-blooded cherub, clad in a chewed-up but largely intact purple hoodie, peeks out. Once she thinks she's alone, Calliope sets out to find her friends, or anyone who may need some moral support. Even if she's self-conscious, this is important enough for her to set it aside for a little while.]

[Making herself as useful as possible is the only way she can think of to handle this.]

[ Dirk was stuck with Caliborn, so they got shepherded to the Education Center together. When Calliope wakes up, he's sitting in one of the self-study areas, napping. ]

[Calliope peeks inside a few of the study areas, because who fully respects the privacy of others when one of your primary methods of learning about them is watching them meander around in their bedrooms??]

[She spots Dirk, and very quietly lets herself in to watch him sleep. You know, just to make sure he's handling things well, not having nightmares, that kinda thing.]

[It's not creepy, it's friendly!!!]

[ It's probably not the first time she's watched him sleep, so. Whatever.

He's pretty vigilant, though, so when he senses someone else in the room with him he stirs and lifts his head up. Puts his shades back on before he opens his eyes. ]


...oh, hey.

Hello, dear. Sorry if I woke you up; I wanted to check and see how you were doing.

[Piper was out and about, avoiding the bots as best she could while trying to herd stragglers into the Education Center. She wasn't about to get tasered, and just might freeze a couple of bots to give people a chance to get ahead of them. The tasering was really unnecessary in her book, but she could see trying to get people to safety. She wasn't going to use her powers on anyone if she didn't have to, though.]

[Sawyer looks like he's trying to find some way to throw a punch or start a fight with whatever the hell started all this, but so far no luck. He doesn't even have a gun to start firing in the direction of the crack in the dome which, to be honest, probably would have made things worse.

Since there's nothing to fight he's keepin' an eye on the people around him, making sure everyone is okay while pretending he doesn't actually care. He even stops to help a few people up after they trip, hoping no one is going to notice him being nice. Can't have that.

Anyway, there's a girl doin' the same sort of thing nearby and he nods a sort of acknowledgment at her.]
You okay, sister?

[She glanced over when she heard someone speak. She gave him a small smile and nod.]

As much as I can be, I guess.

You?

Well, I'd think it's a little bigger than that.

[But she did give him a small smile at the comment, at least.]

But here's hoping it doesn't last too long, right?

[ Aidan arrived relatively early, without needing the prompting of a taser. Not that it did much to ease his nerves — more the opposite — and with the mounting tension he can't keep himself from restlessly pacing, breathing bordering on the quick and shallow.

It's not the impending danger or possibility of death or even the fucking crack in the dome. It's the noise.

Eventually he'll retreat to a corner somewhere, crouched down with his back to the wall and his head between his knees, fingers twisting in his hair. Trembling. On the verge of snapping. ]

[The bots are "helping" in the effort to get people to the designated area, so she isn't as stretched thin as she might otherwise be in a situation like this. Which means when Tear spots a huddled up figure across the room, during one of her periodic checks into the center, there isn't a conflict of priorities and she allows herself to take the few minutes needed to walk over and see. Even in ordinary circumstances, looking like that would be a cause for concern, but in these... They're likely terrified out their mind. Or hurt]

Are you alright? [Gently, as she kneels down once close to him, avoiding contact for now just in case. She can't see his face, but the red hair-- that always makes her think of Luke at first-- points to that boy, Aidan]

[ At first he doesn't even register that he isn't alone and it isn't until her voice cuts through that he finally reacts, head jerking up and eyes wide as he stares at her. He shakes it off soon enough, swallowing sharply and struggling to keep up appearances. ]

Yeah, I'm... [ Swallows. And again. This isn't working. ] No... 'm not alright.

[Well, it's pretty clear after a moment that he's not okay at all, but his admitting it is good, in her mind. Far more likely that he'll accept any help she may be able to offer]

Can I ask why? [Sure, it's more than not to do with what's happening, but it's easier if she can get him to open up...]

I don't know what's wrong with me. [ And that's the scary part. If he was just afraid because the dome is about to come in on them, he'd be able to deal. This is something else though. ] That damn noise...

[Helix was practically attached at the hip to Aidan as they were ushered out of their home and into the Education center. He lets the boy pace and try to calm himself down, feeling as if he can't help him. What good would repeating himself do? He can't erase the memories in the boys mind. So he just watches on with mounting concern and feeling utterly useless.

He only looked away for a moment, just long enough for Aidan to disappear from sight. He's quick to go looking for him and luckily he didn't go far.

He's by his side in an instant, wrapping his arms around him while trying not to crowd him. He just wants to hold him, swallowing his frustration at himself and the situation down roughly. He feels so utterly useless. What kind of boyfriend can't comfort his lover when he needs him? He can't take the pain away.
]

Aidan. Breathe, we're okay. It'll be over soon. [He knows it's probably a lie but he doesn't know what else to say anymore. So he tries to soothe him the best he can.]

[ This time he doesn't pull away. It won't make much of a difference anyway, he can't get his heart to calm down or his breathing to even out no matter what he does. The blaring sirens and distant bang of tentacles against glass leaves him trembling, fingers curling against his scalp until you'd expect there to be blood under his nails. ]

....I can't get it to stop.

[He struggling to wrack his brain for anything, anything at all.]

I know. But I'm here, okay? You're in the dome with me not anywhere else. We're going to be okay.

[Something comes to mind but he's not so sure if it'll work or not... it's worth a shot? He knows Aidan's heartbeat always helped to soothe him, if he could just close his eyes and focus on it. He shifts slightly, straightening out his back and reaching to try and brush his fingers along aidan's face.]

Babe, do something for me? I want to see if it'll help, okay? Put your head to my chest. Focus on my heart.

[ He hesitates for a moment, not because he thinks it's a bad idea but rather that it takes that long for it to even register. When it does he nods, slowly untangling his hands from his hair in favor for wrapping his arms tightly around Helix. Eyes closed he presses his ear against the other boy's chest, listening to the beating of his heart.

Thud thud. Thud thud.

Little by little he relaxes, breathing evening out until it practically matches the rhythm of Helix's heartbeat. ]

[It isn't until she has no choice, that she is finally herded into a safe zone as well. Instead, it's been spent trying to make sure that others seek and find shelter, too. While Yuuki is immortal and can't die, she knows very well that the majority of the people here can.

For that reason she wants to do all she can to prevent that. She herself is getting ready to put up an air bubble, if needed, and the dome cracks. She's remaining incredibly busy, but now it's just to distract herself from the fact that she's been separated from Zero, and she doesn't know if he's safe or not.]

[ Roxy had been drinking at home the entire time. She slept through the morning announcement and at first figured the banging was a noisy neighbor, so she ignored it. As it became increasingly obvious that it wasn't something so mundane, Roxy just kinda peeked out the window. Construction work??? Is that what that shit sounds like? Written off again.

But then by the time the sirens start up she's kind of really fucking drunk. She actually goes outside at that, sees the crack, drops her drink and gets herded along into the education center.

And now she's sitting in a chair somewhere in the lobby, head lolled back, neck bared and slumped completely over. Man, what a shit decision drinking so much today was. She feels fucking stupid for not realizing some serious shit was going down. ]

[Calliope has been stalking the halls and rooms to try and track down her friends. She's already found Dirk, but no one else, yet; coming across Roxy is an enormous relief.]

[She hurries over.]


Roxy! There you are. I'm so glad you're alright.

[ Roxy sluggishly looks over Calliope's way when she sees her in her peripherals-- a blur of green-- and when she speaks up, she is all smiles. ]

Heeeey, Callie. I'm glad you're okay, and here. Have you run into anyone else?? I was alone most of the day, so I'm worried.

[Calliope sits down beside her, and thinks about holding her hand to comfort her, but she seems to be doing okay.]

Dirk! He's trying to get some rest in one of the study rooms.

I'm still looking for the others, but it's possible they ended up in one of the other safe zones.
