[pausing a bit as she sees him! she's also changed, which means she's in a fancy white gown that is... covered in blood and a little bit torn. it's fine.]

I didn't. What did you receive?

[turbulency]

[ i see

well he will definitely look at the blood stains for a bit before meeting her gaze with a weirdly exhausted look ]

... Nothing good.

[ she might hear... fleshy writhing against the floorboards ]

[allomantic]

[takes a reflexive step away from the noise]

What is it?

[turbulency]

[ from under the bed, this lil guy (note: buff man not included) will painstakingly crawl out, turning its head toward her and, in a distorted voice, say, ma...ma...

geto looks kind of sheepish ]

It's not dangerous.

[allomantic]

[immediately reaching for a weapon, only hesitating when he says that.]

What is it?

[turbulency]

[ well, no way around it now ]

It's a curse. [ ... ] But it doesn't seem to have it's powers right now, so it's mostly just an ugly pet.

[allomantic]

Shouldn't someone kill it before it somehow gets them back?

[vin no]

[turbulency]

[ no she's valid ]

Its not particularly harmful even if it has its powers. [ he thinks. he's never seen it attack anyone. ] And it has its uses.

[ nudges it back under the bed with his foot ]

I can move it somewhere if it bothers you.

[allomantic]

It doesn't bother me as long as it isn't dangerous.

[it's at least a little creepy but she doesn't say that]

How did you get it?

[turbulency]

[ it croaks mama in its weird distorted voice but seems content to shuffle under the bed

or as content as a tortured little worm can look ]

Showed up in my box, though I would've preferred my phone or something... [ glances at her ] Did you get anything useful?

[allomantic]

[thinks about asking whether it should maybe be put out of its misery for its own good but she's suggested murder enough in this thread]

No, nothing useful.

[trying not to sound bitter and failing]

[turbulency]

[ she's valid ]

It's not exactly comforting that some of us have guns and swords, while the rest of us are left with nothing.

[allomantic]

[nodding with a frown]

I can't see the point of such a thing, unless they're trying to create some kind of division.

[turbulency]

Well. [ glancing away ] It wouldn't be hard. We're a bunch of strangers in a weird place with no resources.

Division is usually how things go.

[allomantic]

The majority of people I've spoken with seem either kind or reasonable so far, but...

[the emphasis is very much on "so far" and "seem"]

I wonder how long it'll last.

[turbulency]

Probably as long as we all have equal access to food and water.

... But hopefully we won't be here that long.

[allomantic]

Mm. There must be another way out, besides through the... fog.

[she hates u fog]

We just need to find it.

[turbulency]

Yeah, there has to be a weak point somewhere.

[ though really, maybe there isn't.

but they'll just live here in monotony, never learning or escaping, until they die. ]
