[bird???

anyway, there's a lot of horns and he's covering his ears before he narrows his eyes in the direction of the door. kairi and sei are busy trying the door and he just shakes his head.]


Some kind of signal? [for what, he does not know.]

[ people die when they are killed. and then they leave their birds behind ]

A signal for what, though...?

[ concern :( ]

I don't know. [he leans against her a little because yeah. concern.] It's only Thursday.

[ she leans back!!! looking worried!! ]

Did we mix up the days somehow...? [ no, but she's trying, okay. she looks at her knees for a second ] I hope everyone else is okay.

Maybe...[it's said in a way like he doesn't think so, but it's better than thinking something worse.] If we're locked in our truck, hopefully the others are, too. Do you think people stuck together after everything?
starcracker: (i came across a fallen tree)

[personal profile] starcracker 2021-12-31 04:34 am (UTC)(link)
I don't know... [ hrm. ] I'm not even sure everyone would have been back in their trucks in the first place. It's late, but not that late.

[personal profile] reconnective 2021-12-31 05:02 am (UTC)(link)
[oh bad.]

You think some of the others are still inside the store and stuff? Maybe those didn't lock up.
starcracker: (dad always seemed apprehensive)

[personal profile] starcracker 2021-12-31 05:03 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe... But when stores close, they lock up everything, don't they?

[ she's thinking of rat man also. just. being in there with them ]
reconnective: (Temporary)

[personal profile] reconnective 2021-12-31 05:18 am (UTC)(link)
I think so, but it's not like we've seen anybody who actually works here. [except for maybe rat man? who the hell knows.]

...if they're locked inside the store, at least they have stuff they can use to try and fight back. [hopefully.]
starcracker: (as you head off to the war)

[personal profile] starcracker 2021-12-31 05:20 am (UTC)(link)
... Right. And there's no point worrying over them when there's nothing we can do from here. We just have to trust they'll be able to take care of themselves.

[ hrm. ]

Who do you think does the announcements for clean up? That has to be an employee, right? But... is it the rat...?
reconnective: (Conspiracy)

[personal profile] reconnective 2021-12-31 05:29 am (UTC)(link)
Right. [he says, knowing they will all worry anyway. but the question is a good distraction.]

Maybe, but where are they even making the announcements from? Unless the rat is making the announcements. [he's ignoring that there have been different voices because it's a metal rat. maybe it can use magic too. fuck if he knows.]
starcracker: (this could be the end of everything)

[personal profile] starcracker 2021-12-31 05:32 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe they were using the same PA system that Artemy used...? [ a pause ] What if there's more than one rat and that's why they have different voices?
reconnective: (Hard Times)

[personal profile] reconnective 2021-12-31 05:36 am (UTC)(link)
Rat...people? [multirat...] If all of the employees are rats and nobody's seen them, what if they're the ones killing everybody around us?

[it's now just horror hour, thanks guys.]
starcracker: (you have to forget)

[personal profile] starcracker 2021-12-31 05:39 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe. But then we're back to why it didn't attack you or Riku...

[ did they get the one non-murder rat ]
reconnective: (Swim In Silence)

[personal profile] reconnective 2021-12-31 05:43 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe because we were somewhere we weren't supposed to be and it was surprised? [that sounds stupid.] I have no idea.
starcracker: (i guess i didn't believe it until now)

[personal profile] starcracker 2021-12-31 05:48 am (UTC)(link)
I really wish we had any sort of clue...
reconnective: (Wine Red)

[personal profile] reconnective 2021-12-31 06:14 am (UTC)(link)
We'll just have to keep looking. That's what we decided, right? Once we figure out how to get out of the truck, we'll start talking to the others again and see if anyone learned anything new.
starcracker: (and if you have a minute)

[personal profile] starcracker 2021-12-31 06:15 am (UTC)(link)
Right. We'll get everyone together then, too. That's what we said.

[ none of this will happen riku died in our salad ]

[personal profile] reconnective 2021-12-31 07:41 am (UTC)(link)
It's still a good plan. We just have to make sure nothing serious happens out there tonight.

[which does not matter anymore, because everything serious happened in the actual truck.]
