Who: maybe YOU?
Where: the hotel
When: Day 78, evening/night

[Sure, we've got plenty of unit posts, but what about everything that doesn't fit into one of those? Feel like making yourself a snack? Want to have an emotional outburst in the lobby?

Mingle away, folks.]

Oh. Hey, Intensity.

[tired smile]

It's good to see you.

You look worse for wear.

I'm so tired.

How are you holding up?

Well enough.

. . .

Let me walk you back to your dorm.

Oh. Sure.

King and Corona are both in our dorm tonight. Everyone's hiding in their rooms right now so you probably won't see anybody but... FYI.

[King and Corona.

Yikes. Do not want at the moment]

It's probably best I not disturb your unitmates then. We can talk until we get there.

That works. I'm also happy talking somewhere else once I drop these off.

[Shifts the pile of rations and utensils in his arms]

[Thinks about that for a while]

Perfect. Then I know just the place.

[pressing the elevator button with his elbow]

I'll just follow you, then. Something you wanna talk about?

Obviously. Or I wouldn't be here.

[He could have gotten that with FiN powers, but oh well. Opportunity missed]

[BETTER LUCK NEXT TIME]

And here I thought you just wanted my excellent and charming company.

I thought that was just a convenient bonus.

[And up up up they go]

Guess you're lucky I'm in such a great mood.

[pep! dorms are on one of the bottom floors so it takes all of five seconds before the doors open again.]

Let me put these down real quick.

Sure.

[Just gonna lean up against the wall near the elevator]

I'll wait for you to get back.

[Cobalt unlocks the door, leans inside to drop the stuff on the nearest desk, and leans back out again, letting the door click closed.]

Ok. Lead the way.

[Back to the lobby, good sir, and then out the front door.

I hope you brought a coat]

[As soon as he realizes they're heading outside, his feet begin to move slower and slower. He outright balks for half a moment on the threshold before he forces himself outside.

He didn't bring a coat, but he can deal with the cold.]

[. . .

That is---]

Cobalt?

[Catching up to keep pace with Intensity]

Yeah?

[Sheds his coat and tosses it to Cobalt. Almost the same height. (Intensity is a noodle though)]

You sure you're up for this?

[Catches it]

Where are we going?

[That didn't really answer the question]

Just up and around. Not even too far from the hotel.

[Puts on the jacket]

Then I'm probably up for it.

[Cool, because Blue Eyes is parked outside and Intensity will wait for Cobalt to mount first]

[Normally he'd be vibrating out of his skin about this but he's so emotionally exhausted that all he can muster is regular Pleased instead of Ecstatic.

It's still good, though.

He climbs on.]
