part 343 pieces of discounted Halloween candy

[aphanon_meme]

stock up while it's on sale! Anyway: I. can't. believe. it. I really can't. I mean, I do believe it. So I guess I can believe it. But STILL. I've been saying all month that we'd get doodles, if anything, but--AN EVENT. An event! <>A real event. With ghosts! And mysterious happenings! And Hong Kong being a butt! I can't wait to see what happens next!

Enjoy part 343!

Hmm.

[He doesn't believe that for a second.]

I'll give ya' summat for it once we're out of here.

[Though... now there's no way of telling when that will be, is there.]

[fruited_plain]

I don't need anything!

[Except a doctor. Ow. She tries moving it and it makes a funny noise so she stops.]

Guess we're stuck.

[Because if she can't open it obviously there's no other way to do it.]

[iceandheather]

Reckon someone'll come by eventually.

[But who knows how long they'll be trapped here, really.]

Can't say this kind've thing's what I had in mind today.

[fruited_plain]

Maaaan me neither!

[Huffs and struggles to her feet, still holding her shoulder.]

This sucks.

Will be slow for a bit!

[iceandheather]

[Rises, sliding his fingers along the seam of the door. Now that he's paying attention, he can feel the magic. Nasty stuff.]

... Sorry about this.

That's okay! Me too aha

[fruited_plain]

Why're you apologizing? Unless you did something to the door. Then you totally should and fix it like, right now.

[She leans her neck and tries rolling her shoulder again. Still fucking hurts. She looks around to see what else is in here.]

[iceandheather]

Weren't me. Just meant...

[In general, because he knows it hurts, and he doesn't like it-]

Never mind.

[Steps away from the door, and begins prodding along the shelves, just for something to do, not looking at her, quite.]

I did not get this notif. I'M SORRY

[fruited_plain]

Too bad MacGyver's not here to save us. I bet he could use these bits of string and paperclips to get us out of here.

[She picks up a weird piece of oddly shaped metal and puts it back, then leans against the wall.]

So what's a guy like you doing in a storage closet like this?

It's okey!

[iceandheather]

[Bites back the 'who' at the first question, because the second one distracts him.]

... Can't tell if you're askin' for serious, or if you're just teasin' me, puttin' it that way.

Dead serious. I'm glad I refreshed the first page :x

[fruited_plain]

[Oh just some guy that had a TV show once and her people still quote.]

Can't be both?

[But she is curious.]

I was AFK and figured you were the same, 's okay xD

[iceandheather]

[Raises an eyebrow. He's fine with that, but -- well, she's probably kidding.]

Came in here for summat, but damned if I can remember what it was now.

... What're you doin' in here, anyhow.

[fruited_plain]

I hadn't seen it before so I was just checking it out and doing my duty of keeping everyone safe!

[Of mothballs. Or something. She was curious!]

[iceandheather]

You were bein' nosy, you mean.

... Can't say I mind, though. Ain't so bad bein' stuck with good company.

[fruited_plain]

Yeah if I had to get stuck with someone you're like, way up there in my choices of roommates.

[She could be stuck with Turkey again. That went swell.]

There anything to sit on in here that isn't the floor?

[iceandheather]

Doesn't look like it.

[Edges closer to the back of the storage room, poking around. Nothing. But really he's just trying to distract himself to keep from getting too hung up on what she said.]

... Didn't think you thought so highly of me as all that, neither.

[fruited_plain]

Huh? Why wouldn't I?

[She stops hugging the wall to follow him about. He said she's good company so why's it surprising she'd say the same?]

I mean you're not like most people I hang out with. It's kind of a nice break, you know?

[iceandheather]

I see.

[Turns to look at her, not sure what to think of that.]

Meant it on account've -- not bein' like most of your friends, is what. But if that's what you like, 's fine by me.

[fruited_plain]

[He should think he's awesome for her liking him, that's what.]

Good!

[She gives him a big pat on the back then wonders why he's in the corner.]

There really isn't anything in here, is there?

[Looks crestfallen. Guess she'll grab a clean spot on the floor to sit.]

[iceandheather]

No. Nothin'.

[Rests against the wall again, sinking down]

Looks like 's just us here. 'Mean, 'till someone comes 'n lets us out.

[fruited_plain]

[Groans and plops down beside him, leaning against the wall too. Her shoulder still hurts but it stopped making weird noises.]

Yeah.

[Pause.]

You think anyone else will come by? We're not gonna be stuck in here forever, are we?!

[iceandheather]

'Course not. Don't be daft. If'n nobody comes by, I'll get us out, understand?

[fruited_plain]

How? You saw what happened earlier.

[Points at her shoulder. If she can't do it there's no way he can.]

[iceandheather]

There's more ways to get out than forcin' a door, y'know. Magic'd do it, I'd think.

[Unless this place can override whatever he would come up with. He doesn't want to think of that.]

[fruited_plain]

Don't tell me you believe in all that stuff too!

[DRAMATIC SIGH okay she gets some of it since the meme is weird and all but the meme's a very special place. Just don't start talking to imaginary friends, okay?]

[iceandheather]

Don't tell me you don't.

[Almost smiles]

Might have to go provin' it to you if nobody comes for us.
