What do you feel makes one human?

[This is a serious question, Marina. And if you say 'biology' or 'a human soul', you will break her heart. Just to let you know.]

Dammit, it's hopeless! How could I have let this happen? This is the worst!

[Kid had a little run in with the raptors last night. Kid's hair got clipped on one side of his head during the fight, and not the other. Kid is now crying over the network because of this fact, even though the difference isn't noticeable to anyone who doesn't hold a magnifying glass up to his hair.]

( One who gains the eye of truth will be able to see what is hidden in the darkness. )

[Without warning, the closest Lizard swipes at Zelda with its claws. The barrier-cloak protects her from the worst of the damage, but she is still knocked to the ground. She screams and covers her face with her hands, but somehow she manages to keep holding onto the Lens of Truth. The rest of the pack now attacks, and while their bodies still disappear when Zelda uses the Lens, their blows obviously do not. The barrier starts to weaken, and Zelda realizes the danger she is in and calls out in a panicked voice.]

Link...!! [The cry is automatic, but also useless. He's no longer in the prison.] Please, someone! I need help!

((OOC: Slightly backtimed to just a little while after Faith's post. Rescue action is CLOSED to Sakamoto and later Suzaku.))

[ She smashes the communicator against the closest solid object on hand (in this case the wall of someone's house) hard enough to turn it on, but gently enough so that it doesn't break into utter pieces in her hand. Her voice comes over the line high-pitched and angry. Not surprising for a new prisoner! ]

So -- this is it huh? This is what you've decided Misato-san? This is the decision all you NERV bastards came up with? Just because my synchro rate - just because - Oh! I get it. [ She adopts a high-pitched, mocking tone. ]

We don't need the Second Children because we have the perfect, obedient, pathetic First Children and Shinji the Hero! So lucky Asuka! You don't need to break your back saving humanity now that Shinji and Ayanami are here! And I completely agree. Who the fuck wants to work with those two dweebs? You can all go get massacred by those damn Angels for all I care. Go die and do it fast you [ and here Asuka kicks the basket ] BASTARDS!

[It had been days since Miranda slept so long, but standing on her feet and dancing and all the stress of the day before had been helpful in pushing her into a deep slumber. When she does finally awaken that morning, she is drowsy and unfocus when she reaches for her communicator and puts it on to hear the morning announcements--

--Only to realize something is touching her. Something is rubbing itself against her--]

AHHH! Wh-Wh-What are you d-doing?! S-STOP!

[There is distant giggling. Loud, high-pitched, echoing giggling. And then sound of something crashing into a solid surface--hard and metalic.]

{OOC: Please do not be alarmed. It's just GIR.}

[This is the most serious voice you will ever hear ever Sakamoto speak in. His voice is lower and almost unrecognizable unless you are Japanese and can pick up his accent.]

Fellow inmates, I fear I must inform you of another great tragedy.

[There is a long dramatic pause, as if to honor someone who died.]

There appears to be no alcohol left on the premises.

[Sakura's just stepped out of the house for one second to peer outside the door.]

...I really can't see anything. Does everyone have flashlights? I should get some too for Itachi-san.

[she takes another step outside to peer outside. How long would it take for her to walk to the store? She could get a folder and some flashlights - and her train of thought is cut off with a squeak....What - what was that? She can see something. Oh God, what if it's a - ghosts weren't real - there weren't any in Marina right?! At least if there were, they'd be friendly ghosts. Like - really nice people that are see-through and not at all like the floating, creepy people that haunted youandpossessedyouandscaredyouandkill-]

.....Hoe?

[and then she feels the hand on her shoulder. insert hysterical screaming]

HOEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

Whoa! Sakura-

GO AWAYYYY!

ooc: This is what happens when Shiba creeps up on lolis everyone. Shiba is blue |D AND HE WANTS A WALKING BUDDY

...Acumen? ...Hellooooooo? LET'S MAKE BABI--

--OOOOOOO~ I CAN SEE ALLLLL OF YOU! YOU'S ALL GONNA BE LIKE ANTS!

[Giggle while GIR proceeds to mess about with certain things in his new surroundings, gleefully asking what 'this does' or 'that does' in the process.

GIR eventually decides that he rather likes the dome in nighttime, so for now all you'll be seeing is darkness. But of course breakfast time doesn't have to suffer because of this! There's a gasp because now GIR has some ideas!

Should you be worried? That is entirely up to you.]

DOLPHINS!



((ooc: Ok, guys, today's the day to meet your new Vermin Overlord! First off, you can always refer to this post for a day-to-day schedule of what's happening. This morning Orihime and Ribbons will be given special attention! GIR will be sending robots to Orihime's house to pamper her senseless and give her candy and as for Ribbons, congratulations, you will be sent a huge shipment of tacos with bacon in them.

Comment as you would any other day post and have fun~))

... Here's a question.

What do you do when you can't sleep?

[Given that it's very late, he's not likely to get answers from people who don't have the same problem, but oh well.]

[Sakamoto was not someone who didn't apologize- At least, if he knew there was a reason for it and if he could remember that he had to do it in the first place.

He hadn't meant to hurt either of the twins, but he could understand why Hikaru's brother was mad at him. Sakamoto didn't know much about Hikaru's so-called "conscience," but Hikaru was pretty short-tempered. Still, from what he had seen of them, Kaoru seemed to be the one who thought things through more, and that was part of the reason why Sakamoto had called him Hikaru's conscience in the first place.

So- The drunk decided to wander around the prison until he found the other twin, and decided to abstain from drinking until after his apology.]

[He had tried to contact Takami today, but received no answer. And when he queried the system and received the message that Takami was no longer among them.... Well, it had certainly dampened his mood for the day. Takami had been his friend here, someone who's company he had enjoyed and whom he found intriguing in his own right. To have him suddenly spirited away, like a ghost.... It was reminiscent of another he had cared for, though much more deeply than he had for Takami. All the same, the disappearance brought up feelings and thoughts that were hard to shove back down.

So he called the one person he knew who had a cheerful attitude no matter what - his 'fiancee' (because yes he was still indulging the other's continued insistence that was what they were) - Sakamoto. He was currently waiting beneath the trees Ammy had planted for the other, considering some petals in his hand, and looking less than pleased.]

_{[ooc: The thread between Sakamoto and Ashura is closed, though anyone is free to comment on them as they take their walk through the park. If you want to direct comments to a certain person, just note it in the subject line so we can differentiate :) ]}

Man, it really feels like it's been longer than two weeks since I've been here. Not that I mind! I've got to meet some really cool people here.

[Laughs]

And it's definitely two weeks I wouldn't have had. So!

Kinda glad that some of you kids are excited and getting ready for tomorrow. Don't really have that sort of thing back home. My hometown's really, really tiny. Seriously tiny. I think even Cloud's hometown was bigger and that's saying something.

[A pause and then:]

Ashura, how you holding up today? Feeling any better? Those looked pretty nasty, man.

[She's busy putting the finishing touches to her lunchbox, clad in an apron and everything! And if someone doesn't stop her she'll be making one for Sasuke too.]

I've just finished making lunch for school tomorrow and I have lots of extra ingredients - so if anyone would like a lunchbox I'll be happy to make one for you too! [unless you rather have the bots do it!] Oh, do you want anything particular in yours Sasuke-san?

[smilesmile! oh yeah] I can go to school right Itachi-san? I'll be really careful and I'll come home straight away, promise!

[defense force filter]

Gino-san? I'd like to ask you something if you're not busy.

[Rayflo has things to do today! Even if he's doing it all at a leisurely pace. The bitemarks have been covered up, but he's still tired. First he's going to Orihime's to pick up his gifts, then to the convenience store for some nice things for Maria--including a cute collar--and then he'll be going to the clothing store to pick out a cute dress for Alessa for her first day of classes! But he also has something else he needs to do which is why he has his communicator set on the network as he walks with Maria sitting on his shoulder.]

Hmm...seeing as we have a nice new mail service, does that mean we can send something to just about anyone?

Anyone mind admitting any letters or presents they intend to send? You don't have to say to who.~

{OOC: If you want to see Rayflo at any of these specific places or in between places, just say so in the header of the comment or be specific in your tag. Thanks!}

[Dressed and ready for her day, Yuuki walks silently along one of the many well-kept roads within the dome, her long hair trailing lightly behind her as it stirs in the smooth, light currents of the air. There's a parasol with her, but it's folded up and at her side, for the time being. Alone for once it's a rare sight. She rarely leaves the familiar property surrounding the manor unless within the company of someone else. Brown gaze wide and intent, she stares a little anxiously at her surroundings.

With her eyes casting furtively this way and that she forces herself to take a deep breath, before attempting to smooth away the troubled expression on her face. Nothing might really look out of place from a distance, or to a stranger, either. But she's obviously uncomfortable. She walks like this for a while, before a loud noise echoes off to her right. Visibly flinching, Yuuki pausing in the street. Turning toward the direction of the noise, a bot scurries past her and she quickly realizes that it is nothing more than one of the computer created robots going about their daily business. Inhaling a little shakily, her small fingers reflexively curl into her skirt, before she squeezes her eyes shut, head tilting down.]

This is just foolish.

[To those who are wandering around the asylum early morning: you will notice that there are flyers. Everywhere. Each printed paper is stapled, excessively so, to the surface it is attached to. On surfaces that do not accept the puncture of a tiny staple, like metal, they are taped. It seems a certain psychotic somebody learned how to use the printer!

Even more so, he has a plan. This 'plan' can be illustrated by looking at the poster.

( Here is the poster. )

Clever? You decide. React as necessary if you feel so. You know you want to.]

Uh-oh.

[Clink clink clink and then he picks up a cute little biology text book he found while browsing the library so he can show it to everyone! GIR can read, actually, yes! ...Though he's holding the book upside down. He flips to a page and starts to point to one he's been very interested in!]

Does anybody know where I can find one-a THEEEESE???

[And, ta-dah: a picture...of a penis.]

((ooc: s-sob. I'm so sorry.))

[Kitty is in the educational facility going over what she'll be teaching once the school starts and her class is in session. Teaching without cutting up her students. It will be novel.]

Allen, you hungry? [Is she kidding?]

[Defense Force filter]

I think we have someone for the watch list. Name, Hidan. He's a new arrival. He hasn't harmed anyone here to my knowledge, but he made off handed threads to kill everyone. Someone from his world has also warned me about him. He may be looking to obtain weaponry.

[Just kind of hanging out in the shelter with her feet propped up on the couch. Faith's amusing herself with knife play! not a kink. Because when you don't have anything to do you should totally do dangerous stuff. She flips the knife over and over and over and over and over - and yeah, she'll probably keep on doing this for a while.]

[He's been feeling kind of weird ever since he woke up, and he'd been ignoring the pain till now as he went about his day. Maybe it was from all the fighting he'd been doing recently, but his muscles ached, and more importantly... the area around his scars along his chest, tummy, and back stung as he moved, the edges tender to touch. They flared up now and then, back home, but he had Healer Talents there to ease the pain, or at least a salve. But here... ]

Excuse me, but does anyone know of anything one takes to ease pain? Particularly that from old wounds flaring up?

[And for the moment it distracted him from Sakamoto's good over the communicators earlier. Really, that man....]
