Who: Kai and OPEN (Multiples okay)
When: 8 AMish
Where: Second floor lounge
For the first time since being put back in the house, Kai had slept in her own bed the previous night. She'd propped the door wide open and left her bathroom light on, but gosh darn it, it was progress and she was counting it as a win. She'd felt nervous as she dozed in her own bed the previous night before, and at several points had wanted to get up and go find a more public place to get comfortable, but she'd been determined to see it through. She had to be able to do this. She had to be okay with being alone again someday.
She was, mercifully, a pretty heavy sleeper - even without whatever their evil overlords occasionally saw fit to pump into their systems. She could at times be a wild sleeper as well; strange positions, kicking blankets aside, waking up sideways half hanging off the bed or, alternatively, so tightly wrapped in a blanket burrito she couldn't move. This morning was more of the former. She was sprawled half on her stomach, half on her side, one leg and one arm hanging off the bed, sheets untucked, comforter on the floor. Before she was truly awake, she became vaguely aware of a tickling sensation on her hand. She shifted, but it didn't stop. And again, and again. Finally she opened her eyes, just to see a couple of ants crawling around her forearm. Frowning, she blew them off, and then realized she felt something on her right leg. Slowly becoming more awake now, she sat up and raised her hand to brush it off - just in time to see a rather large centipede crawling up her thigh.
Kai liked to think she could be tough. She could kill a spider, and she'd had no problem holding snakes at the petting zoo. This? This was a whole other thing. A bullet-train with a one way ticket into Nopeville. Kai screamed bloody murder, bolting upright and trying to shake the thing off. It only managed to crawl up over her sleep short, and then Kai progressed to running around in circles. She felt it crawl up the back of her shirt, moving over the small of her back. Kai ran screaming into the lounge.
"OH MY GOD! OH JESUS NO! JESUS CHRIST! JESUS CHRIST! JESUS CHRIST! GET IT OFF GET IT OFF GET IT OOOOFFFFFF!"
