R R I - REHABILITATION & REINTEGRATION INITIATIVE

Zach, Matt and Ru :)

Characters: Angel and Wren
Setting: Early evening, A block kitchen

Angel had eventually left the pool, but hadn’t bothered to do more than throw his pants on over his wet self and underwear, drawn by his growling stomach more than anything else. So he was puttering around the kitchen, stoked to find ingredients for pancakes even though it was evening. Nothing wrong with breakfast for dinner. It was odd, the gang member, drastically terrifying tattoo on his bare back, humming to himself and making pancakes, but it was a nice reminder of home. His mother, despite her husband’s line of business had been a pretty traditional mother.

Characters: Adam and Kyle
Setting: Their rooms / via phone, late

It was late, the sun having long set, when Kyle sat down at his computer and brought up the call app there. He stared at it for a while, his heart hammering, his palms sweaty. He had no idea of what he was doing. He was terrified, and yet... He knew part of his problem was that he didn't trust his instincts. It was being governed by his instincts, his wants, and his emotions that had led him here in the first place. Now his instincts and emotions were all over the place, trying to drag him in two directions. He had no idea what to do, as though he was going to fuck up at every turn. But everything else was falling apart anyway, so he felt like maybe he couldn't make things worse now. Not when he had screwed it all up anyway. Maybe it would even make things better. That didn't stop him from being terrified about everything else surrounding it. He knew he could go round and round like this all night, so in the end, he simply pressed call.

Characters: Naomi and Wes
Setting: courtyard

( meeting new people )

Character - Roberto Callesto. Open to anyone on B block
Setting - Just outside B block elevator.

Roberto stepped out of the elevator - at least he could see now that his blindfold was gone. Whoever removed it must have disappeared quick as he didn't see anyone. Roberto looked around, there was nothing familiar. This definitely wasn't prison - or at least not the one he'd been in for the last 12 years, then he realized he was holding a piece of paper. He didn't remember receiving the paper, but upon looking at it, it seemed to have a room number.

'39' He muttered to himself, as he began walking down the hallway to find it. As there were no other instructions, he figured that must be where he was supposed to go to. Maybe there he'd find some clue as to what was going on.

Characters: Cassandra and Jason
Setting: Gym and then the Courtyard

Characters: Adam and Charlie
Setting: Kitchen, B Block, midday

Adam was feeling better after his conversation with Hunter. Maybe Wren’s cards were right. New people, new path. The whole ‘moving on completely’ from Kyle part was harder to digest, but at least he kept from going back to his room to see what Kyle was doing. No, instead he just loitered around until he was supposed to meet Charlie for lunch. He wasn’t exactly looking forward to this, but Charlie saying it was for Wren was motivation enough. He cared about Wren enough to try.

Characters: Adam and Hunter
Setting: B Block, mid morning

( and maybe a new friend )

Characters: Angel and OPEN
Setting: midday, pool

Angel had wandered around the facility for a few hours after he woke up, just checking things out, seeing what was what. It wasn't bad, but there wasn't much to it. It was strange, no guards, no family, no nothing. In general, it seemed stupid. Why was he here? He wasn't sure what else to do with himself, so when he found the pool he just stripped down to his underwear, found a raft and floated himself out into the middle of the pool, just laying there, waiting for something to happen.

So far, there was a whole host of nothing going on.

Setting: Kyle's room
Characters: Kyle

In his head, he knew it wasn't healthy. In his head, he knew that he needed to stop this. That he needed to put down the paint brush, step away from the canvas, and enter the real world. And for more than just a dinner where he put on a mask and pretended to be just fine. He had been doing so well, but the last few days had launched one setback after another at him and he was dealing with it in one of the only ways he knew how.

Kyle had been painting all night. He had had dinner with Wren yesterday and he knew he should have said something to her. She was one of his best friends, but he hadn't wanted to break on her. So he had kept to himself everything that was bothering him. The fact that Violet's death was still haunting him. The fact that Meg had voluntarily left, and he was fighting not too take that personally (he knew it had had absolutely nothing to do with him, but in the midst of everything, the loss felt very personal). The fact that Adam didn't even want to speak to him and he had no idea what to do there. How to fix things with his best friend that he couldn't help but think could only be fixed if he stopped fighting and agreed to more. He hadn't shared any of that with Wren. Instead he had played the calm, happy, stable persona. The face he had developed in New York society. He had sat there and been charming and chatty and carefully steered her away from any subjects that might suggest he was anything but. He had told her that he and Adam had talked, both that morning and over PMs. He had told her he hoped the other man would be okay in the other block, and expressed concern over the situation. And then he had diverted the subject to something else.

When dinner was over, he had said his goodbyes, returned to his room, locked the door and started to paint. He had poured all his emotions into the canvas. He had been up until the early hours, when he had become too tired to keep his eyes open. Then he had fallen asleep on top of the covers, caught a few hours, and then started work again.

He had to stop, he knew that. And he would. Eventually. He would have to eat. Eventually. But not yet. Not now.

Mixing up another colour, Kyle picked up a fine brush. Now it was time to start on the detail.

███ D A Y ◊ T W E N T Y-T W O ◊ July 25th ◊ ◊ W E A T H E R ◊ The wind has died down entirely, and given way to a bright, warm day! Not a cloud in the sky, temperatures are in the high seventies. ◊ E V E N T S ◊ Through a small icon on the desktop, camera feeds can be accessed from people’s computers today. Block B can spy on Block A, and vice versa but cannot look at feeds from their own block. Camera feeds include: public areas, and main rooms of individual rooms and include sound. Sam is put into the block B elevator (blindfold and shackles are removed once she is in the elevator and she is not given any opportunity of talking with any guards etc). She is given a bag containing her clothes and an ID tag on a bracelet stamped with a QR code, and a paper tag that has the correct room number. She is left to find her own way to her room. ◊ C O M M U N I C A T I O N S ◊ Mazie is woken up with a normal sounding alarm in her room, and her screen blinking with a message. The message reads: Ms. Davis, Due to an error on our part, which we greatly apologize for, you have been misassigned. Your correct place is in Block A. Please report to room 12 which is your new room assignment. You have 30 minutes to reach block A. We suggest you get moving. If you do not comply with this, you will be removed from the facility with no further warning. Of course, your laptop is waiting for you in your new room - so we trust the change will not be a problem. The Administration Everyone receives the following message - the message will blink until it is read:- Good morning, You all did a good job yesterday! Please keep up the good work. We saw that not everyone got an opportunity to meet new people yesterday, but in light of the chaos, we are giving you another day. Please ensure that, if you did not manage to meet someone new yesterday, that you do so today. This is for your own benefit. Thank you, The Administration Today's daily jury is: There is no jury today. New residents receive this welcome message on their computer. The message blinks until it is read.
