Vas Captio Journals

Hey everyone? I'm Beth. I know I always said I wanted to get away from home, but this is kind of ridiculous. This place is super weird. Soooo. Anyone out there want to talk? I wouldn't mind the company/distraction.




[ooc: This is teenaged!bo. She went by Beth when she was growing up. Didn't want to confuse anyone with the different name/plot journal ♥]

Ват ад?

If this is some trick you play on the new girl, Ozzie, I swear I'll hide your favorite lighter...and your head phones! Don't think I won't!

But this bed isn't too shabby...

Seriously, tho, not funny. Not funny at all.

[her handwriting is much messier than usual and slanted downward]

I know it isn't the easiest to tell time in this place, but I'm pretty damn sure the sun should be up by now.

[There is a drawing of the night sky.]

What's the experiment this week? Apparently I'm not one of the affected.

[added]
Ah. Just read. Tethered, then? I wonder what the point of that is.

-Dutch

Apparently this experiment doesn't just have a physical component.

If anyone sends a private message to Jo's journal, it also shows up in mine. I just realized.

I wish I hadn't seen any of that.

We're stuck together. In case you guys still haven't managed to figure out the experiment. That's the thing, we're stuck together and if we try to move too far apart it hurts like a motherfucking bitch.

JAKE.

I'm sorry, I just saw your page...are you okay now? I can come check on you, if you want, but I'll have to bring Sydney with me if I do. Every time we try to separate, I feel like someone's bashing my skull in with a sledgehammer.

Fuck this place.
Fuck the Management.
Fuck their experiments.
Fuck it all hard.

[Bo]
I'm sorry that I
Did I really
Please tell me that I

I'm sorry.
I take on the chores, volunteer any duties you have, will shine your boots...anything. Anything to make up for how I was.

I was obsessed. I'm sorry for what I said. I'm sorry for fighting you when you locked me up.
And did I actually lose all sense of self and say things to Marco?

I hate myself for this. I'm so sorry. I don't know how I'll make it up to you.

[Dutch]
So...awkward.

Welcome to the cabin? We need a name for this cabin

I wasn't myself. I'm sorry if I made your moving in uber-uncomfy-like

[Sirius]
Can we talk?

( filtered: kenzi, sirius, & dutch. )

Bless. Your. Heart. I owe you one like you wouldn't believe.

Poor Kenzi, though. I feel so awful for her.
-Dutch

( left outside Cabin Four this morning )

Sooo votes are in. All the votes. All the counting.

It seems people were more in favor of killing Kai, with police force/jail in the close second. Only one person voted for banishment. There was also a call for someone to build a sort of jail for any future problems.

Right...uh...who volunteers to take that on? I'm sitting this topic out now.

For jobs, people seemed interested in assigning them based on skill, and more than one person seemed interested in focusing on a few jobs at a time to get the most work done. Others suggested on focusing on getting the building secure and in better working order before we move on to bigger things. And Octavia volunteered to help with a smokehouse.

There were other things. Voting things. Arguing things. Decision-making things.

But what does any of that matter? Especially when Dutch is here. You know, since I showed up here I've been questioning whether or not I was right in returning to life. Whether or not this life is worth coming back to.

But if I'm lucky enough to not only come back, but come back for Dutch? It's all worth it.

There were flowers and balloons in the cabin when I got back. Maybe Dutch would like some for herself.

-Kenzi

Well, the dome is certainly looking very festive as of late.
-Dutch

[Bo]
I know this is probably a weird time and place for it, but I think I'd like to draw you sometime. That's not too bizarre is it?

I've never felt so healthy in my life. Thank you, Jo. Thank you, McCoy.

[There's a drawing of a cartoon figure of herself giving an oversized thumbs up.]
-Dutch

[Bo]
Should I come visit? Have your friends size me up?

[Her handwriting is a little messier than usual.]
I wouldn't be surprised if a medical professional told me I was dying. Please tell me you're doing better than I am.
-Dutch

Better put off me meeting Kenzi. I'm sick as a dog and it's not pretty.
-Dutch

[Jo]
I'm worried. I can't taste anything and my sore throat is what it was times a thousand. I think my tonsils are swollen, too.
-Dutch

Guys...is anyone else feeling...unusual? In a bad way? Sick?

-Jo

AGAINST KAI.

Feel free to use this filter, if it makes you more comfortable, but I can't in good conscience leave anyone out of this particular conversation.

Pro? This experiment didn't seem to be all that bad. I blacked out and woke up by the pharmacy. Con? I'm alone again. If anyone needs a place to stay, the library is vacant save for yours truly. Alternately, if anyone has room for one more I'd really like to avoid living on my own again. I don't snore and I'm very neat. There could even be a drawing in it for you.

[There's a cartoon smiley face with the word 'Please?' written next to it.]
-Dutch

This is a lot later than I'd have liked it to be and I'm sorry about that. My name is Felicity Smoak and I've been keeping the list of people who are here. I'd appreciate it if anybody whose name isn't on the list could check in with me that way we can keep track of people and make sure that we're looking after one another. I'm keeping track of this, and making it public so that others can do so should I not be available.

So if you could please check in I'd appreciate it.

( LIST OF PEOPLE: )

For those of you that have just arrived I'm assuming that you have some answers since I'm late to actually getting this up, but if I can help in any way please let me know. As of right now the pattern that we know is that once a week we get new arrivals and are given either a dome-wide experiment or individual experiments. So far we've had 2 weeks where there weren't individuals taken. The experiments thus far are about teamwork, trust, and working with the person that you're paired with from what I can tell. People black out as a whole while the experimentees are taken and those who are in charge here call themselves the Management. They have spoken with us via an entry of their own once. They call this an experiment and refer to themselves as scientists.

I think those are the major points, but I'll answer any questions I can. Thanks, everyone.

- Felicity

For everyone who can appreciate the male form.

Is everyone recovering from their experiments alright?
