Day 222 — Mandatory activity mingle
[ It's a wonderful, stormy day here in Squall Asylum and vacation time is officially over! Your gracious overlords have worked out a light itinerary for you today and they expect you to keep it.

Get in line to pick up your food rations for the day. Eat breakfast if you have time for it, or perhaps you'd rather skip this one time and save yourself the discomfort during the two hours of exercise that follow. Jogging, jumping jacks or perhaps impromptu team sports, whatever you end up doing you bet you'll come out exercised in the end!

Should you not want to participate... well. We have ways to make you join in. Anyone reluctant to get their heart rate up will get a helpful electric prod by one of the bots until they comply. Tough cookies.

Luckily you'll get a chance to wash off that sweat (hope you're not shy, the wash room can get crowded) before it's time for the silent game for an hour, followed by lunch. The day is not over yet though! There's still time for a couple of hours of hard labor tending to the crops, doing laundry or perhaps breaking bricks in the yard. To make sure none of the inmates are broken this is also the time for mandatory physical checkups — bots will guide you to the hospital. No ifs or buts. The violation of personal privacy is for your own good, we promise.

Isn't it nice, being in prison? ]

((ooc: This mingle takes place during all of day 222. A bullet-point for of the itinerary can be found here, where we also encourage you to direct any questions. Event info is here if you need it. ))

[ he isn't ready to spill everything, but this— dropping small, teasing hints— makes him feel in control of the situation. it works for him, allowing a sense of security as well as a way to test spike.

piter chuckles softly at spike's turn of phrase, an inquisitive look etching itself across his features. ] Which special snowflakes are these? [ genuinely curious, as he's actually unsure of which individuals spike might be referring to. ]

	Oh, you know... the lit'le brats we've got runnin' about, claimin' their blood will drive even the most stoic of vampires mad with desire. [ Yes, he's talking about someone specific. There is even scoffing! ] Throwin' himself at me like a cheap tart... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[ he might have giggled. but very derisively. a manly giggle, or so he assumes. ] How vile. [ piter has been in a situation that involved a man throwing himself at him, and it wasn't his favorite encounter. ] Luckily for you, Piter is no such strumpet— but, come now. Who is it that solicits you so, and why have you not punished him for his insolence? [ don't withhold the deets, spike. now piter actually wants to know. ]

	Lit'le blue piece of shit brat called Helix... could've had my fangs in him ten times over by now, but he's not worth my time. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[ piter lets out a bark of a laugh, ignoring the fact that it hurts his already aching muscles, and shakes his head in jovial not-quite-disbelief. of course spike and tyki would both hate helix just as he does. of course. it's moments like these that make him actually quite fond of his murderbros. ]

We've met. [ another little chuckle; one of his hands balls into a fist at his side to keep it from flying to his diaphragm in a useless urge to quell the pain. ] The mutt would be more tolerable dead, but it's as you say— not worth the time.

[ It's small, but Spike has always been good at noticing the things people don't want him to notice. A failing love life, crippling self doubt, all the little weaknesses he could oh so easily exploit and this time is only different in the way he chooses not to jam a knife in the cracks and twist. ]

You ever want to have a spot of fun on his expense, try telling him that he's not as good as the superhumans we got running around here. Doesn't matter that it's true, he'll go bloody mental trying to prove you wrong either way.

	[ if he is grateful to spike for not twisting the knife— and he is— he doesn't show it. a slight grimace of a smile remains fixed on his lips, and if not for the feral way his lips part into a grin, his expression would almost seem warm and friendly. ] Perhaps I shall. [ it'll be something to look forward to, if he can manage not to die. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ C'mon Piter bb. You can pull through for hilarity like this. ] Let me know when you do. I'm not one to pass up a good laugh. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Don't I feel special. [ Dry and amused. ] I best be going. Places to go, people to see... I'm sure you understand. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ he does, of course, and with a curt nod, he turns away, watching spike go from the corner of his eye. it's almost a relief. he allows a hand to settle on his chest, fingers digging just a bit into the fabric of his shirt. he rather prefers solitude, privacy, in times like these. ] (Reply to this) (Parent)
