You're already ill then. What is it?

[oorah]

[ fuck ]

it's like before. maybe it's in my head.

[blacksky]

Or maybe our captors were testing out whatever is causing this on you first. Let's find out.

[oorah]

how?

[blacksky]

Easy. I'll hit you when you least expect it. Trust me I will know if it's in your head or not.

[oorah]

it's just in my hands so far. i think. maybe my feet.

[ he's realizing if he can differentiate that then maybe he isn't making it up. goddamnit. ]

so you think this place is an experiment? we're rats in the maze.

[blacksky]

I have two thoughts on this after our little meeting: the first is that clearly someone fucked up. I think whoever survived the 'end of the world' that woman was hinting at when we arrived kidnapped whoever they could feasibly get to fix their fuck up. Why else would we need to unlock this place like it's a big puzzle? Or the shuffling cast of kidnappees? They are preparing us to succeed where they failed.

The second is this truly is an experiment. We are being tested because some sick bastard with a god complex likes tormenting people. That's why the people keep changing. Maybe they're getting some decent data on us. Who could say? I am leaning towards the torment because only a complete bastard would look at that cute little girl trailing behind you and think 'I bet she'd be interesting to watch while I infect these poor idiots with disease and kill a few off for fun in gruesome ways.'

The final stage of the test will have us try to save the world we see outside. I'm guessing failing means we die like I suspect the last crew did.

Either way, they'll die when I find them so it doesn't matter.

[oorah]

[ wow that is a lot of words. and it's obvious she's thought this through seriously. ]

i agree with you. it's a black site if i ever saw one.

[ and he'd seen a few. point is- ]

when we find them. all of us. [ he's gonna get his team-up if it kills him!!! which you know, it probably will. ]

[blacksky]

I'm not shutting you out, Francis. I'm a big fan of your work. We will need to lose some weight when that time comes.

[Aka they probably need to ditch Matt.]

[oorah]

[ oh right the one not down with murder. yeah they can ditch him. ]

he told me he'd make an exception once. pretty sure if anything qualifies this will.

[blacksky]

Anger is a better look on him than guilt, but we'll see what happens when we get there.

[oorah]

maybe we'll uncover a brig by then and we can waste time debating with him like the old days.

[blacksky]

Ah those were fun times. Did he ever pin you to a wall and scream in your face? He loves doing that with me. I always wondered if I was the special one or he did that with all the psychopaths in his life.

[oorah]

you're not a psychopath.

[blacksky]

You've clearly never talked to someone about me before. If I had a penny for every time someone called me that, I'd be Stark-level rich.

[oorah]

no i haven't because i don't give a fuck. and they don't know you like i do.

[blacksky]

You're right about that. I am positive they don't know the first thing about me much less as much as you do.

Do you really believe I'm not crazy?

[oorah]

i mean take it with a grain of salt OK? they say the same shit about me and you know it.

you're not crazy. i've seen crazy and you're not it.

[blacksky]

Oh I know. Other than that silly speech you gave at the trial everything you've done seemed perfectly sane to me.

Really what else could you have done in that situation? Cry and let nothing be done about it? That's the coward's way of dealing with things.

[oorah]

i was just playing up what they all wanted to see anyway. i don't have to tell you that, i think you know who i am by now too.

[blacksky]

I think I do too. I can't be too judgmental when it comes to shows, can I? My house has a lot more glass than yours.

[Sometimes she thinks that's all she does.]

[oorah]

pretty sure we're as close to equal as it gets actually.

[blacksky]

Maybe you're right. Yours I think is a little more subtle than chronically bored and slightly alcoholic rich girl.

[oorah]

chronically bored and neurotic poor boy doesn't have the same ring, i'll admit.

[blacksky]

Is the neurotic part an act though? I know the poor part isn't. Your wardrobe is pretty bad.
