[ 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. ]

[ The crack doesn't worry him. Not even the tentacles worry him, except in the sense of whether or not he should stay down here until whatever is attached to those tentacles is finished with dinner or not. No, the only things on his mind right now is idle thoughts about if there's dry land up there and whether or not he'll reach it before the sun fries him to a crisp. ]

Hey. [ Lazy drag on that cigarette. ] Fancy seeing you here. What do you think about this lit'le surprise party, then?

	Does this happen often? Disasters, bells. Monsters? [She asks with the slightest of forming frowns.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Around here? Nah, not really... we had that bee outbreak couple of weeks back, but aside from that it's been bloody boring around here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	andproud 2013-05-27 08:50 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah, I was here for that. It was a nice welcoming present. [But she frowns.] How is being hauled up in a museum less boring? You really like... impending doom? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	chipswiththat 2013-05-27 08:56 pm UTC (link)
	Impending doom is kind of what I do. Besides, if th' dome is really coming down... I'm out of here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	andproud 2013-05-27 09:12 pm UTC (link)
	Right, water won't hurt you. Your lucky day, isn't it. [Sucks to be an air-breather.] You're fun company to be in right now. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	chipswiththat 2013-05-27 09:21 pm UTC (link)
	[ Raven. Don't make him do this. He's already running way low on his supply of niceness. ] You're not actually worried, are you? The place is crawling with goody-goody world savers. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	andproud 2013-05-27 09:41 pm UTC (link)
	Why would I be worried when the glass is cracking and we're herded into buildings like sheep. Oh, right. Because the goody-goodies'll save us. I'm so relieved. [Flat.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Some hero type will think of something brilliantly annoying in the nick of time. They always do. [ Could be more convincing, but he isn't actually hoping for that outcome. ] Could always turn you, if you really don't want to drown. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	andproud 2013-05-27 10:05 pm UTC (link)
	Oh. [Well, that's... a unique offer. It's a bit sprung on her, so she blinks for a second while letting it sink in. She's not entirely sure how she feels about it and it really doesn't sound like a decision you want to have to make in a panic, but. Oddly enough, she appreciates the offer?] Would that even work on a mutant? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	chipswiththat 2013-05-27 10:46 pm UTC (link)
	[ Shrugs. ] Who knows? Maybe it won't stick. Either way you'll end up dead, right? What's the harm? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	andproud 2013-05-27 10:53 pm UTC (link)
	[Just. This look.] I think I'll have to think on that. ... You were bitten once, right? To become a vampire. [Now she's just nosy.] Did it hurt? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	chipswiththat 2013-05-27 11:05 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah... right here. [ He runs his fingers along his neck, pulling the t-shirt to the side. There's no mark left, but he'll never forget the spot. ] Hurt like hell at first. The good kind of hurt. And after that... nothing can really describe it, the feelin' of your life runnin' out of you. It's incredible. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	andproud 2013-05-27 11:28 pm UTC (link)
	[Absently sort of touching her neck because that sounds... painful.] It sounds scary. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	chipswiththat 2013-05-28 12:21 am UTC (link)
	[ He shakes his head with a fond expression. ] Best day of my life. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	andproud 2013-05-28 12:31 am UTC (link)
	What about your life from before? Didn't you have to give that up? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	chipswiththat 2013-05-28 12:39 am UTC (link)
	[ Shrug. ] Small price to pay. [ And that's all she's getting. Nothing about William the Bloody Awful or his dear old mum or Cecily. ] What good is your immortal soul for, anyway? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	andproud 2013-05-28 12:46 am UTC (link)
	It seems like you give up a lot to gain a lot. [No more sunshine seems to hit hardest.] Did you have a choice? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	chipswiththat 2013-05-28 12:32 pm UTC (link)
	She didn't say please and thank you, if that's what you're wondering. [ So no, he didn't have a choice in the matter. ] No regrets here though. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	andproud 2013-05-28 09:22 pm UTC (link)
	[She nods.] Who was 'she'? Dru? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	chipswiththat 2013-05-28 10:31 pm UTC (link)
	That's the one. Sweet old Dru... picked me up out of mediocrity, she did. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	andproud 2013-05-28 11:54 pm UTC (link)
	[She regards him for a moment, perhaps sizing him up. But then she smiles slightly.] So you're admitting to possibly, once, having been mediocre? Weren't always a bad boy? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	chipswiththat 2013-05-30 12:34 pm UTC (link)
	[ He gives her a brief look that may just possibly confirm that no, he wasn't always a bad boy. Far from it, in fact. He shakes it off soon enough though, covering it up with a healthy dose of cocky attitude. ] C'mon, compared to this all humans are mediocre. Shouldn't you know, what with your special skills and all? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	andproud 2013-05-30 07:39 pm UTC (link)
	It's kind of funny. I always wanted to be... [like them] 'mediocre'. But I guess... I just wanted to look like them. I don't think I'd want to give up my abilities. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	chipswiththat 2013-05-30 07:58 pm UTC (link)
	That's what it comes down to, doesn't it? Special will always win. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
