6th Howl [Text/Friday early morning]

There is a new statue in the Dead District, in the small square on the corner of 8th and Lincoln. It has the same effects as the first in the police station, except it makes me want to leave the area, not trust someone. Has anyone else been by it? Has anyone else touched it?

What interest could these people, and Thunder Corporation, have in keeping people out of that part of the city? What connection could the Thunder Corporation have with the people who want to find the "snake" and shoot kids?

And does anyone know anything about David Proud, the sculptor? I can't find anything much online. There must be some connection with him, as well, if he's making these things.


Also a note to my students:
If you don't see me around school today, don't worry, I'm fine! I just called in sick today.

Another one? Ugh, I'm tempted to go check it out, but I ain't sure I should.

[He sighs, and then continues after some hesitation:]

I... had another of those moments when I was working. And it made something pretty weird happen to me.

Oh! Yes, of course. Silly me. Hold on, I'll call you up.

[And he does.] There you are. Hi.
comparative_insanity: (Your effortlessly graceful scene)

[Phone]

[personal profile] comparative_insanity 2013-04-12 08:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, I'm- I'm really good, actually. I met... someone that I feel like I have met before. Like, instead of a thing there's this whole person? It's pretty weird.

[He sounds rather cheerful about it though. Never accuse him on brooding too much over anything for long.]

[personal profile] comparative_insanity 2013-04-12 08:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Uhm, well, I- [He laughs a bit sheepishly.] I don't actually know that much about him. He's a mechanic of some sort, I think. He's- [-really good in bed. Maybe not.]

Well, he's like us. He's got a string of numbers in his head and he feels as if he knows me too.
comparative_insanity: (I wanna wear my face like yours)

[personal profile] comparative_insanity 2013-04-12 09:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, I definitely got his number.

[That jumps out of his mouth before he can decide if he really should say it, but he just laughs lightly.]

Both of them, yes. And I told him about the network, and I think he's at least going to check it out, even if he looked at me a little bit like I was crazy. But... well, I knew about the number and the heartbeat thing, so.
comparative_insanity: (The hyacinth wild on my shoulder)

[He squirms just a little bit, not that Lyall can see it, but he still keeps his voice light and unbothered.]

I thought so! I know I took a bit of a risk just... asking him about the numbers out of the blue, but- but I just had this feeling, like I could trust him. Like I'd known him for so long. It was kind of scary.

I know what you mean. All those different creatures, the fondants, that library that I remembered when I got the book, that- that someone chopping their arm off with a sword, and now this strange craving I got when I met this person... It's all pretty durn random stuff, but it all seems to fit together somehow, you know? Like someone's giving me pieces to a puzzle one at the time.
comparative_insanity: (I've seen the future brother)

[personal profile] comparative_insanity 2013-04-13 12:05 pm (UTC)(link)
[He sighs a bit, laughing ruefully.]

No, it's okay. But it's pretty weird, because... well, it's blood.
comparative_insanity: (But you don't have the dicipline)

[personal profile] comparative_insanity 2013-04-13 09:23 pm (UTC)(link)
[Well, he did bite, but not that hard, Jesus...]

No. I just... really wanted to taste his blood for some reason? Only his. I can't explain it, I just have this nagging urge that I should.
comparative_insanity: (There is a crack in everything)

[personal profile] comparative_insanity 2013-04-14 10:34 pm (UTC)(link)
[Fay laughs, sounding a little bit embarrassed.]

No~o, not really. I ain't sure about what's right and proper in this situation, but don't you at least wait until you've had one date before asking someone if you can taste their blood? [A beat.] Besides... sampling the blood of strangers is a good way of getting HIV, right? [See, he's being safe.]
comparative_insanity: (I wondered what they meant)

[personal profile] comparative_insanity 2013-04-14 11:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh yes. Like, if I think about tasting anyone else's blood? Gross. But his... well, it's still gross, but I want to anyway. [He sighs.] I know it's really weird, doll, but so is everything else that has happened so far, right?
comparative_insanity: (It's something in between I guess)

[personal profile] comparative_insanity 2013-04-15 01:07 am (UTC)(link)
What? No, I-

[Wait, give him a moment to get over the feeling of a sudden Echo happening. And then he breathes out shakily.]

Yes, but... but not you. But the guy I just met, I've got memories of calling him Big Puppy, and... Kuro-woof. And... Kuro-min, Kuro-tan, Kuro-pon, Kuro-rinta, Kuro-puu, Kuro-chi... [There are just a bit too many names there, and he could just keep going forever, so he stops.] And neither makes sense, because his name is Youou.
comparative_insanity: (We can't help laugh at underestimations)

[personal profile] comparative_insanity 2013-04-15 01:54 am (UTC)(link)
That's Japanese? [That was news to him.] Sounds like a lot of nonsense to me. [Political correctness. He has it.] Like, I know Youou is Asian or something but... yeah.

[He hums softly, thinking.]

That's... really weird. But I guess I ain't exactly what you'd call a special snowflake, so there being someone else like me except not me ain't much of a surprise?
