250 - Fear Itself Mingle
[ Today is a day where most would be at risk of oversleeping.The dome lies dark like in the dead of night. The sun hasn’t risen today, streetlights casting a dull yellow glow and occasionally flickering out into nothing, only to spark back to life a moment later. There is no electric flicker from the kiosk. The Wardens are still. The wardens are silent.

The dome isn’t silent. There is a rustling of leaves, a snapping of twigs. Claws, scraping against concrete. The inhuman screech of an animal in peril, an animal hunting, an animal hunted. A screech that promises sharp claws and sharper teeth and blood.

The dome isn’t still either. There is something moving, thick as a shadow, tangible as a chill down your spine. Something that doesn’t belong here, something that snuck in when no one was looking. A boogeyman under the bed. A ghost in the closet. A will o’ the wisp, blinking in and out of existence under the flickering streetlights. Whatever it is it’s moving, leaving a trail of cold, dead fear wherever it passes. Something dark. A shadow so pitch black that it blots out the very lights in your heart, dragging your fears out screaming and kicking, reducing even the strongest, toughest man to a blubbering baby.

Perhaps best to stay in bed today, Marina. ]

[ Keeping low, Aidan sprints down the side of a building before ducking into a doorway, heart hammering against his ribs. Was that a shadow moving? It's hard to tell with all this adrenaline rushing through his veins, but it seems like chancing it with the raptors would be the better thing to do... plenty of people around here, after all. It doesn't have to be a hungry lizard. ]

Hey! Someone out there? [ A hissed half-whisper. ]

	Yeah! [Bonnie doesn't shout but she isn't speaking quietly either. It's loud enough for someone close by to hear.] I'm friendly. [In other words, she isn't a raptor and she doesn't mean him any harm. Hopefully he would trust in what she was saying. Bonnie remains where she was for the time being, pressed tightly against a wall.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ Oh, he'll trust a friendly voice alright. Usually more than he should, but that is life. Still keeping low, Aidan leaves his doorpost in favor for getting closer to the source of that voice. It doesn't take too long before the light from his flashlight is close enough to illuminate her figure some. Definitely human. ] Hey... you okay? You hurt or anythin'? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	medeis 2013-12-22 10:34 pm UTC (link)
	[ She holds her hand up in front of her face to shield some of the beam from the flashlight from her eyes, trying to make out who was in front of her. The dark made it so damn difficult.] I'm okay. I'm not hurt. Managed to keep out of the way of those things. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[ Woops. He lowers the flashlight as he moves closer, instead letting it bounce off the pavement to give them both a chance to see faces instead of stars. ]

That's good... they can be damn nasty, if you don't know how to deal with 'em. [ He's lucky he's gotten through it with nothing but a few scrapes and bruises. So far. ] You want me to take you someplace safe? Like, uh... like indoors?

	medeis 2013-12-24 12:03 am UTC (link)
	[ Once she can see again, Bonnie looks at him and smiles a little. Despite the situation she's warm and friendly. ] I could deal with them if I had to. [ Even without magic. ] Not yet. I was looking out for my friends and I just want to know if they're okay. [ She shakes her head. ] They're probably inside somewhere safe, but I still worry. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	redclayheroics 2013-12-25 11:26 pm UTC (link)
	Can't you call 'em? Or, uh... or aren't they pickin' up? [ That would scare the hell out of him. He should call some people. Euphie. Yuuri. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	medeis 2013-12-26 03:12 pm UTC (link)
	Didn't think that would work because of the power outage. [ Bonnie frowns. ] Even if it did, they mightn't have their communicators on them. Have you tried contacting anyone you know? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	redclayheroics 2013-12-26 07:13 pm UTC (link)
	I've heard some people on th' network tho... sounds like it's workin' alright. [ He shakes his head. ] Nah... I mean, I live with my best friends an' aside from that... Guess I don't have that many to call anymore. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	medeis 2013-12-26 10:34 pm UTC (link)
	I live with my two best friends from home so we're practically in contact everyday. [ Just not now. ] Yeah? Did they go home? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	redclayheroics 2013-12-27 08:11 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah... [ Heavy. ] They all do, sooner or later. I'm startin' to lose count. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	medeis 2013-12-27 09:10 pm UTC (link)
	Sorry. [ Bonnie feels a pang of guilt in her chest. ] Maybe we should find somewhere a lot less open. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	redclayheroics 2013-12-28 07:13 pm UTC (link)
	's alright. Ain't nothin' no one can do 'bout it. [ He draws a breath, steadies himself before nodding. ] You're right. Let's get inside somewhere, it looks like th' lizards ain't too good with doors. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	medeis 2013-12-29 07:44 pm UTC (link)
	I'd be kind of worried if they could open doors. [Perhaps worried was an understatement.] Oh, I'm Bonnie. Forgot to introduce myself before. I blame the current circumstances for that. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	redclayheroics 2013-12-30 02:54 pm UTC (link)
	Oh! Oh right... where're my manners. [ He shoots her a smile and would offer his hand if it wasn't so full of baseball bat. ] 'm Aidan. Aidan Reilly — it's a pleasure to meet you, Bonnie! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	medeis 2013-12-31 07:00 pm UTC (link)
	Don't worry about it. Really. [ Bonnie smiles at him warmly. ] It's nice to meet you too, Aidan. Kinda wish it wasn't like this but you know. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	redclayheroics 2014-01-01 08:57 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah, in this place we just gotta be happy with what we get... never seem to turn out th' way we want it to. [ A reassuring little smile. ] You been here long? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	medeis 2014-01-03 03:14 pm UTC (link)
	About six weeks or so. Not as long as some people. [ But she's found that a lot can happen in that space of time. ] What about you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	redclayheroics 2014-01-04 10:25 pm UTC (link)
	Gotta be 'bout three and a half months now. Feels like a whole lot longer, to tell you th' truth. [ Memory shenanigans does that to a person. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	medeis 2014-01-04 11:03 pm UTC (link)
	Given what can happen here, I can understand why it would feel longer. [ Bonnie has yet to experience an upload of memories but there was time yet. ] Guess we just have to ride it out while it lasts. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	redclayheroics 2014-01-05 02:14 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah... ain't got much choice there. Ever, I guess. Ain't like we can control our fate or nothin'. [ A recent discovery for him. When he was younger, he always believed he could decide his path for himself. Not so much lately. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	medeis 2014-01-05 08:55 pm UTC (link)
	We can control the little things. Like what time we get out of bed in the morning. What coffee to drink. [She had attempted to change the fate of others back home but it was difficult.] I'm used to weird anyhow. Because of home. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	redclayheroics 2014-01-05 09:13 pm UTC (link)
	Sure... there is that. [ A little smile. Maybe it is the little things that matter. Some days, those seem hard enough. ] Yeah? What was so weird about where you're from? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	medeis 2014-01-06 08:11 pm UTC (link)
	It's still weird. [ And probably will for a while. ] Vampires exist. So do werewolves. And ghosts. Not everyone in town knows that they exist and sometimes, I think that's a good thing. What's your home like? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Huh. I'd never heard of none of that before I came here... I guess if you don't know they're around, it'd be a big surprise. [ Mildly put. ]

My home... depends on what you wanna hear about, really. 's a big universe after all. Last couple of years I lived in one of th' bigger cities on our planet, but I grew up on a farm. Oh, an' about a year before I came here- [ Wait, is it a year? It's been a year by now anyway. Time shenanigans. ] -I went off-planet with Helix. He's my boyfriend.

[ Was... maybe. ]
