LIVE!

[criminaljustice]

Who: some good and helpful BAD END=DEAD ENDers and other Imeejins
Where: hotel lobby
When: Day 66, evening after Plan Crazypants

[so anyway.

a Live alert goes off.

and there's Boss, setting fire to Future is Now's cursed couch. this is fine?

Boss seems to be dressed in a suit that's not quite the right fit and his Take No Prisoners t-shirt. maybe some of you even remember a certain portrait that he seems to eerily resemble?

he just smiles up at a camera and waves before going to lounge on a lobby couch near the flames. he hasn't slept much recently, so a nap is fine, right? it's fine.]

((ooc: Boss will be Sir Chilling In The Lobby while Jeva is at work. slow tags may occur until she is free from work. other Bad Enders will be helpers for other units that turn up))

[awakenerd]

Yeah. I'll get back to you soon, Doc.

[Gonna head upstairs to knock on Wild City's door. KNOCK KNOCK]

[forthetainted]

[opening the door

blinks at him]

Hey?

[awakenerd]

Hey Aries. Got a minute?

[forthetainted]

[tilts his head and doesn't invite him in]

You're here for me? Who're you?

[awakenerd]

... Phoenix. We met once before but...

[Offers his hand!]

I guess more formally I should say, nice to meet you.

[forthetainted]

[blinks]

Oh... yeah.

[totally forgot you oops. shakes his head]

Sorry. What's up?

[awakenerd]

[It's not noticeable. One moment Aries remembers Moreau as he is, and the next every current memory of the man, even the ones in imeeji, is replaced by a different man, a short fat blond with sharp green eyes and a round, jowley face and the imeeji name Professor.

It's not jarring, just a smooth adjustment of memories so this new face is entirely natural seeming. It will not affect any new memories, however, only the ones Aries currently has.

Phoenix's handshake is firm! Friendly. And he lets go after the proper brief time.]

I was just kind of checking on Wild City. Considering everything that's gone crazy I thought I'd ask how you guys were doing.

[forthetainted]

[he's not thinking about Mori at the moment, so he has no particular reaction to that.]

Hah... aren't things way worse for you guys right now...? We've been fine. No one on the team's been effected by this mess.

[awakenerd]

Bad End hasn't been effected either. But we're all kind of freaked out about it, admittedly.

Are you guys worried about catching it or do you think you're relatively safe from the whole grey thing?

[forthetainted]

We've been fine so far. And when people were talking about it, it seemed like people who weren't really... part of their unit were the ones being targeted, right?

[awakenerd]

Yeah. I'd say that's definitely one cause.

Wild City doesn't have anyone who fits that bill?

[forthetainted]

[frowns]

We'll be fine.

[awakenerd]

Sorry, not trying to be nosy about your unit.

Just, if one of you guys does get afflicted, mind letting the rest of us know? The more information everyone has the better, I think.

That said I hope you're right, we don't need more people going greyscale.

[forthetainted]

...yeah.

So I take it no one's doing any better, yet?

[awakenerd]

Only getting worse, so far. But I know we'll figure something out. There's a lot of strong, smart people here.

If you guys have ideas away any point I think we're all willing to try anything. At least I am.

[forthetainted]

...no, if I did, I'd be doing it. We're fine, but it's not like we don't have friends and allies that are impacted. But I doubt it'll go on forever without the bastards that run this place telling us something. It's just watching everyone run around for now makes good tv, right?

[awakenerd]

Hm. Hopefully. It's not really my thing but...

[He sighs and shrugs.]

Hopefully both our units stay okay through this though.

I'm going to check in with some other people, but thanks for letting me know how Wild City is doing, Aries.

[forthetainted]

Ah... sure...

See you around.

[awakenerd]

Yeah, see you later.

[A little wave as he heads back for the elevator.

Man lying is stressful! Even when you have no morals! Texting Moreau;]

Ogre: Done. Tell me how your science goes.

[cw_underage]

Moreau: Thank you! Did he seem suspicious

[awakenerd]

Phoenix: I mean he was guarded but I get the impression that's normal for him.

[cw_underage]

Moreau: That does seem right. Well, I'll speak to him and let you know how

Moreau: thorough. The effects are

[awakenerd]

Ogre: looking forward to it
