Day 221 — Morning mingle : Main shelter
[Wake up and smell the lack of coffee. You're on a bunk bed. Maybe you're a top and maybe you're a bottom. There are five other people in your room. Maybe they're friends or enemies or faces you barely recognize if at all. It doesn't matter much. You can leave this room and you don't need to come back to it.

You should get your rations though. You're probably hungry. You're definitely a little sluggish of body. What happened to that bruise you got sparing yesterday? What happened to your newly dyed hair? Mystery, mystery... Move along. Find the public bathrooms and do your business with a hundred of your closest friends.

Find the kiosk and get your rations. Careful not to let anyone steal them. You won't get more until tomorrow and the bots won't care. They aren't here to hold your hand. If you get sick or hurt and they deem it necessary they will take you to the hospital whether you wish it or not. But why dwell on such things? You're here now and you might as well enjoy it. You even get a free day today.]

(OOC: OOC info. This mingle takes place in the Main shelter over the morning hours.

[It's not a good morning.]

[Calliope was taking everything in stride. The new place, the message, the spartan accommodations. It's fine because they're alive, and safe, and all together, and that's what counts.]

[She even managed to avoid appearing ungrateful for the rations, which she isn't even sure are digestible for her because she's never even tried to eat any of it before. A first time for everything, right? At worst, maybe she can trade it away to others for those welcoming chocolates.]

[Where she loses her cool is the showers. She is standing face-to-face with a line of stalls, separated from one another by only by flimsy walls and a curtain.]

[And to a cherub with both privacy and self-esteem issues, it's not enough and not okay.]

[After staring in wide-eyed silence for a long moment, Calliope proceeds to turn and shuffle out at a high speed, regardless of who might be trying to come in or leave an the same time.]

	[Peter catches sight of Calliope as she's leaving the community showers. He wasn't terribly happy about that either, but he'd managed a quick shower without too much embarrassment. He's relieved to see that she's here, regardless of the awkwardness of the situation.] Hey. you--you made it over. In the transfer, I mean. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ophiuchus 2013-05-27 06:28 pm UTC (link)
	[Calliope is barely paying attention, and she expects Man In Brightly Colored Spider Suit out of her Peter Parker encounters.] [As a result, there's one of those awkward double-take moments where Calliope perks up, and then looks around to make sure it's not someone behind her, and then she finally looks back at Peter.] Yes- I did, fortunately. And so did you! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[He's not used to having to separate Spider-man's friends from Peter's friends. He was just relieved to see her. He scrubs a hand over his hair.] Uhm...yeah...they sort of confiscated my suit. You doing okay here? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ophiuchus 2013-05-28 12:20 am UTC (link)
	[She blinks and looks him over again, more carefully. Smiles a little as she fits his face to the voice.] Mine, too. Um. I am, thank you. It's a little... [She hesitates as she decides between the truth and The Truth.] -It's going to take some adjusting! And what about you, Mr. Spider? Are you alright? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	breakspromises 2013-05-31 12:49 am UTC (link)
	[He glances around and nods.] yeah, it is. Uhm...I'm okay. Trying to get my bearings. [He hesitates again.] Uh...could you not tell anyone you...you know...that you saw me without...without the suit. [He bites his bottom lip.] My real name...it's Peter Parker. [Because she's bound to hear it at some point.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[Her eyes widen a little bit.]

Ah! [And then she is quick to give him a bigger smile.]

Not to worry, dear. Secrecy is very important to my people, and I'm especially sensitive to that need. Your identity will be as carefully guarded as my real name.

[Which is decidedly less secretive with the way her human friends and the wardens toss it around, but it's the principle of the thing.]

	[He nods a little, a grin spreading across his face.] Thanks. [Exactly! So she understands. He hasn't gotten in trouble with the wardens as Spiderman ~~yet~~, but it's bound to happen and he knows when he does, they'll throw around 'Peter Parker' like it's nothing.] So you find everyone you need to?

	[Calliope gives him a sort of half-hearted, partially-sideways maybe nod.] Almost, yes. I haven't heard from my friend Jane, but she's just likely around here somewhere. [She refuses to entertain any other kind of thought.] What about you? Have you found your friends? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ It would probably help if he wasn't all mashed up in the head still or if he actually knew about Calliope. Unfortunately, neither of these things are helping and when he spots what he thinks is a familiar figure, he calls out accordingly: ] Hey, uh... hey you! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	redclayheroics 2013-05-30 01:54 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah, I uh... I guess you could say that. [ Well. This got a little awkward. ] I didn't know he had siblings... can't say I've seen you 'round before either. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ophiuchus 2013-05-30 02:35 pm UTC (link)
	[It is awkward, but not in ways that Aidan probably realizes. She shyly drops her gaze, but smiles a little.] The only "sibling" he has is me, even if we don't exactly get along well. Not for a lack of trying on my part, mind you! I like to lead a more, ah, private life. [One free of embarrassing posts and delinquency.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	redclayheroics 2013-05-30 04:24 pm UTC (link)
	Ah, yeah... I guess that explains it. [ Not seeing her around. ] He's, uh... quite th' handful, huh? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
