Who: Silent Bob & Cheryl Mason
What: Experimentation time
When: Sometime in the morning, most likely, but impossible to know for sure
Where: A small sealed cell with no windows or doors and water slowly dripping in
Rating: TBD (Currently probably around R for language and stripper talk)
Status: Active






Cheryl couldn't quite remember falling asleep. Last she remembered, she had been sitting vigil outside of the theater because she hadn't been able, or wanted, to fall asleep. She had just intended to watch the sun finish rising before going inside and checking on things...

...and now here she was, awake and sitting up on a small wooden bench in the middle of a space too small to even be called a room. Her breathing was sharp and panicked as she gripped the edge of the bench with white knuckled fingers and her eyes stared widely at the only other bit of furniture in the room - another bench on which laid the familiar form of Bob. She watched the prone man for a long moment, silently praying that his chest would rise and fall with regular breathing and dreading the second when she'd have to come to terms with the fact that she was alone in this cell with a dead man.

A passing moment killed that fear when it became clear that Bob was breathing slowly and steadily and Cheryl was forced to again face the fact that the fading and reassertion of reality hadn't taken from a nightmare to a better place; rather, it seemed that it had thrown her, and Bob, directly into the heart of something even less comforting.

"Fuck," Cheryl muttered under her breath. She forced her body into motion, standing from her bench and edging to the nearest wall. A slightly unsteady hand began to search the smooth surface for any hint of the flaw or clue that would lead to whatever puzzle could free them from this situation.

Bob jumped a bit as Cheryl kicked the bench. Lighting the last of four cigarettes he went in for another smoke. If he was going to be fucking crushed, he was going to go out fucking happy.

Bob didn't know what the fuck to do aside from give a disappointed nod as he didn't have a lot of fucking muscle or a bunch of fucking tools so it was all he could to to feel like a fucking waste of space. At least he had his cigs, right?

For better or fucking worse the wall hadn't moved yet, it just fucking sounded like it was. The floor wasn't fucking wet, either; so, fuck the whole idea of water coming in. The only way this would get messy is when one of them had to shit or something. That would be fucking miserable.

Flaring his nostrils as the thought occurred to him, Bob scratched his head. This fucking blew, even if he was fucking in there with Cheryl.

For fun, Bob started fucking knocking on the wall - because who the fuck knew, someone might hear him. Currently he was knocking out the beat to Jungle Love. Morris Day and the Motherfucking Time.

The waiting was the worst part. Cheryl felt that she could probably handle it if the room were suddenly filled with poisonous smoke or if some wild creature was set loose on them - but sitting in a small room with no indication of what might come...

"It's like one of those stupid stress tests," she muttered. She was speaking mostly to herself and mostly just to hear something other than the endless dripping of the water and the low grinding of the walls. Already, she had come to the conclusion that neither of them were in immediate danger - the wall against which she had been leaning hadn't moved so much as an inch and the water really wasn't anything more than an irritating white noise. "Experiment one: how long will it takes for the two subjects locked in a fucking cell to get tired of sitting around and to start to eat each other? Will the lighter come into play? Let's ask Mister Wizard!"

She snorted a laugh at herself but the strange sound of it didn't sit comfortably with her; instead of dwelling on that, she chose to merely listen to the beat which Bob was currently knocking on the walls. "Hey, you know, that's not a bad idea. Someone might hear if you keep that up, but let me know if your hands get sore and you want me to take over."

Bob wasn't fucking enjoying this. Well, actually he was sort of enjoying the time with Cheryl - but, the fact that he was fucking stuck in a room the size of the fucking bathroom at the Quick Stop was fucking annoying.

As she talked about the fucking experiment he couldn't help but fucking nod like a fucking bobblehead. The only time he ever fucking did this shit was when Jay fucking talked. This was fucking epic. She was really fucking awesome, wasn't she? God, if she ever meets Jay let's hope he doesn't fucking freak her out.

Bob continued to knock, though, his knuckles were already starting to get sore. He'd run out of Jungle Love and was currently just thud-thumping away. Fuck, how long would he have to do this for?

Shrugging he stood up, now slapping his palms on the wall like he was back at the fucking Quick Stop waiting for some fucking teenager to show up and try to score.

That was it. She couldn't take it anymore. Cheryl simply couldn't just sit in her corner and wait for some unseen door to slide open so that could just walk out and she couldn't sit around and hope that this entire stupid experiment would end as soon as she and Bob learned some obscure lesson - or offered some equally obscure bit of information. She had enough of being studied and shaped in her history; whoever was running this experiment could go fuck him or herself.

It was probably fortunate that her leap into action only included beating her own hands against the wall but this was likely due to Bob; his cool head was helping Cheryl keep a leash on her own emotion and it was helping her from getting too paranoid about what might be behind all of this. If he hadn't been here, she likely would have beaten herself bloody against the walls - or tried to access things which were now but a distant memory. Really, Bob was growing in her esteem with each passing moment, even if she wasn't going to say as much.

"I wonder if those sick bastards want us to start screaming," she muttered as she continued to strike a meaningless beat against the wall. "I doubt there's even anyone to hear us - and the echoes in a small place like this'd probably be pretty brutal."

Bob's brow quirked at the mention of fucking screaming. Bob didn't fucking talk, let alone scream. Turning he decided to save his hands for a little while and started dragging the bench back and forth across the floor, it's end hitting the wall with a rather satisfying thud.

Thud. Scrape. Thud. Scrape. Thud. Scrape. Fucking hell.

Deciding to make the best of a fucked up situation with each push of the bench Bob would fucking do a different dance step. For a fucking white guy, Bob had a pretty good sense of rythym. He wished he had his fucking boom box that would make this a little fucking easier.

Stopping for a second he stared at the wall. Was there even a fucking scrape?

The idea of using the bench to beat against the wall was, admittedly, fucking genius but the fact that even that much abuse seemed to leave the wall mostly unmarred took away a bit of enthusiasm. Cheryl muttered a disappointed curse under her breath but Bob's rather impressive impromptu dance did manage to wring a grin from her.

"Pretty fly for a white guy," she snickered, nodding her approval of his wicked moves. For a moment, she rested with her back against the wall and merely flexed the sting from her fingers and palms but she soon turned her attention back to the wall.

"Debuting tonight at the first ever hell night at Heaven's Night," Cheryl moved to resume thumping out something as close to a dance beat as she could manage against the wall but, this time, she chose to use palms, knuckles, knees, and feet - scrapes and bruises be damned. "The silent man who knows just how to use his mouth - Bob Hothose!"

The fact that she was beginning to get perhaps a bit stir-crazy did occur to Cheryl but she just didn't care; all she really cared about, at this point, was either breaking down the wall with one of the damned benches or making enough noise so that someone would come along and let them out.

A breathy version of "Duuuuuh, duh, duh, duh," to the rythym of 'Pretty Fly For a White Guy' came out of Bob's lips as he continued to bang the bench against the wall. This was like fucking exercise - does this mean he'd wake up tomorrow ripped? Bob could fantasize, couldn't he?

Doing his impression of a snorkeler headed down under in response to being called a silent man who knows how to use his mouth, Bob smirked. It could be fucking worse. Really, it could be. He could be stuck in here with fucking Ryuzaki. Or, he could be fucking alone. That would fucking blow.

Doing a drumroll against the bench Bob signalled it was her turn to introduce herself. Fuck yeah.

The fact that Bob was actually playing along with her current bout of silliness amused Cheryl to no end. Not that she had really expected him to react badly, but she wouldn't have been overly surprised if he had just rolled his eyes or something; but no - there he was dancing like a fucking champ and actually doing a damn fine job of making all of this livable.

"You can't be serious," she laughed when it became clear that Bob was waiting for her to introduce herself but, hell, if he had been enough of a sport to play along then she might as well hold up her end of things.

"Also debuting tonight - the Princess of Hearts, the road to motherfucking paradise, Cherry Harrison." Figuring that she couldn't introduce herself without adding a few dance moves to the mix, she shimmied her way to a crouch then used her hip to check the second bench against the opposite wall. The sound which followed was rather satisfying, even if the lack of result was not, and so she decided to keep at it.

"You know, if we keep at this and get out of this hellhole, we might just have found the new exercise craze."

Cheryl - or Cherry as she was now introducing herself, made Bob actually laugh aloud. It wasn't often that his laugh wasn't as silent as the rest of him - but, she was making him fucking laugh.

Huffing, Bob had to sit on his bench for a minute. Another bobblehead moment as he agreed with the idea of this shit as an exercise craze - but who the fuck would volunteer to be locked in a fuckng room with no other choice than to bang themselves against the wall in order to escape?

Well, he started off sitting, but eventually pillowpants just had to lie down for a minute or two. So, feeling like he couldn't just stop the effort, Bob laid on his back, stomping his feet on the wall adjacent.

Dammit he was starting to get fucking thirsty.

Cheryl wasn't about to begrudge Bob a couple minutes of rest, especially not when he'd been the one doing all of the work of bouncing benches off of the walls.

"Let me know if this gets too loud or annoying," she offered with a slight grin. "I'm not sure it's doing any good, anyway, but it's better than standing around and waiting to go crazy." Because giving the both of them stripper names and dancing with a wooden bench were both signs of complete rationality.

Speaking of rationality, she continued to hip check the unoccupied bench into the wall until she was quite sure that both of her hips would likely be badly bruised; it was then that she moved on to kicking it against the wall, even if there was still no sign of actual damage.

Bob, fat ass that he is, had managed to render himself completely spent and lying on the bench. Sitting up he pulled off his trench before laying back down again. "Fuck," he breathed as he tried to take up as much room as humanly possible for a moment.

Too loud? If Bob could make it fucking loud enough to burst his eardrums he would - at least then maybe someone would hear them.

What the fuck were the walls made out of, anyway fucking titanium or some shit? Groaning Bob tried to will himself to fucking sit up. No dice.

"Couldn't have said it better myself," Cheryl agreed with a slight snort. 'Fuck' seemed to encapsulate just about every last detail of this whole experience - both what had happened inside this room and what had happened ever since that gray Portland morning.

Knowing that dwelling on those thoughts would lead nowhere she wanted to be, Cheryl returned her attention to kicking the bench into the wall and, when she grew tired of that, she started to use her shins. She had already pretty much given up hope of being heard but going through the motions was currently preferable to sitting around and letting her thoughts get the better of her.

"You alright?" She asked, turning her head to glance at the now prone figure of Bob. "I know, that's a dumbass question considering what's going on but still..."

Sighing he sat up, taking off his hat to straighten out his hair a little and exposing what could have been a permanent ring around his head from where his hat habitually constructed his hair. Replacing his hat he scratched his chin - taking up a mock thinking mans pose.

'You alright?' she asked, and Bob just shrugged again. He didn't know what to do aside from that. He wasn't feeling particularly shitty - just tired and fucking thirtsy. Making a motion like he had a cold fucking brew he mimed his feeling to Cheryl.

Taking out the soft pack he started himself on another cig. Snoke 'em if you got 'em, Bob supposed.

"Oh, you have no fucking idea how right you are," Cheryl half-laughed at his miming of the need for a cold drink but she couldn't help but agree with his assessment; nothing could make this ideal but a cold drink, ideally something alcoholic, could make it marginally livable.

"While you're at it, let's add a double happy burger," she sighed, slumping to sit on the bench which she had just been abusing. Dangling her arms over her knees, she inclined her head to stare at the faint red of her hands. "Some of those horrible fries would be good, too - and an extra thick chocolate shake."

Another laugh but this one caught short when all the talk of food reminded her of a late afternoon run-in at the gas station. Sitting up a little, she rooted in the pocket of her hoodie and soon enough she held up a slightly unwrapped but uneaten Slim Fast Bar.

"It's no burger, but it's something I guess," Cheryl muttered and held the bar out in offering to Bob. "Want it? It's two days old and unwrapped but it should still be alright."

Waggling his brow, Bob indicated that he did know just how fucking right he was. He was so fucking right that his tongue felt like fucking sandpaper.

Pursing his lips with a continued nod of agreement as she went on to mention the fucking burger, fries, and shake. He was most impressed with the fact that she was the sort of fucking girl who actually fucking ate. Good fucking shit. Next thing he knew she'd be talking about burps and farts and then he'd know she was a transvestite.

Waving his hand to the offer of the slim fast bar he sort of shrugged, "Save it," he remarked, finding himself thinking that was what he ought to have done with the cigs. There were now only three left in the pack.

"You're probably right. I didn't even think of that," Cheryl nodded and placed the bar on the bench beside herself. Though she was beginning to feel a bit more comfortable with the food offerings in this place, she still wasn't comfortable enough to really try eating until she was on the edge of real hunger. "Who knows how long we'll be left down here? It might be a good idea to ration."

She paused a moment and then laughed outright. "Not that we have anything to ration - a slim fast bar and some cigs." Was this all a starvation scheme? If it was, then there wasn't much chance that they'd make it more than a few days.

"Too bad we don't have anything cup shaped," she mused as she turned to watch a rivulet of water slide its way down the wall. "We could try to store up some of this water - though it'd probably take years to store enough to be much use."
