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. ]

	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. ]

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	medeis 2014-01-07 07:04 pm UTC (link)
	From a farm to a city. Pretty big change. I haven't been to many cities myself but I'd like to. [ But enough about her. ] And space travel too. That's cool, kinda jealous now. [After that, she becomes a little more serious. ]What about Helix? Is he back home? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	redclayheroics 2014-01-07 08:46 pm UTC (link)
	Helix... [ He pauses. Clears his throat. ] He used t' be here. Disappeared just... 'bout a week ago, I guess. Don't know where people go when they disappear, but if he really is back home... He's probably in prison. Real prison, I mean. Not this. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	medeis 2014-01-08 10:30 pm UTC (link)
	Oh. I'm sorry to hear that. It's never easy when someone you care about leaves. [ She can relate to it. ] Really? I won't ask why. It isn't my place to ask, but I hope he's okay. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	redclayheroics 2014-01-08 11:42 pm UTC (link)
	[ He makes a noise of appreciation, happy she won't push it too far. If they knew each other a little better he'd explain, tell her the whole story... but not tonight. This isn't the time for it. ] Yeah... I hope so too. Ain't too sure I'm gonna get to see him again, to tell you th' truth. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	medeis 2014-01-09 07:38 pm UTC (link)
	[ Bonnie understands why he wouldn't wish to talk about it. There are things about her and her life that she wouldn't disclose to anyone just off the bat. ] There's always the smallest chance that you will. You've got to hope that it'll happen. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	redclayheroics 2014-01-09 08:00 pm UTC (link)
	[ He gives a little nod, not too convinced. ] Well... either he's gotta come back here, or I'll have to count on both of us survivin' an' findin' each other again back home. Not sure which is more likely, actually. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	are raptors okay to bring in? maybe? medeis 2014-01-10 08:04 pm UTC (link)
	Nobody can really be sure until it happens. I reall- [ A sudden noise in the distanct distracts her and Bonnie pauses, looking around.] Did you hear that? It sounded like one of those raptors. Maybe my mind is playing tricks on me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	yessss absolutely redclayheroics 2014-01-10 11:56 pm UTC (link)
	[ What are they doing, chit-chatting in all this danger? Gawd! ] Shoot... maybe we should try an' get inside, just to be safe. Those bastards are quick, once they get a whiff of ya. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	\o/ medeis 2014-01-11 05:32 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah. Yeah, we should. The sooner we find somewhere the better. [ She checks for any signs of them. ] Where's the nearest building? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	redclayheroics 2014-01-11 07:06 pm UTC (link)
	That's open..? [ He looks around, suddenly nervous. Knuckles going white around that bat. ] Few blocks down? I think. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
