Week 1 Wednesday

[robopriest]

[Oh, if it isn't the girl with the robotic body - Hansa pauses when he sees the familiar figure at the bridge, before approaching. Someone mentioned something about that he's been intrigued to follow up on, and so he smiles, friendly, folding his arms as he follows her gaze out to the expanse of space.]

Hey. Penny for your thoughts, little lady?

smiles............

[bisouled]

Oh...! Hello, Hansa.

[ a friendly nod! she steps over to make room for him next to her. ]

You'd be out of a penny, I'm afraid. I'm just staring into space. Literally, as a matter of fact. [ shrug, amused. ] There's no way this is real, but it looks amazing.

[robopriest]

It really is, huh? I've only seen this kind of stuff in movies.

[Would she know about movies? Oh, well.]

I'm guessing this would be your first time being in a place like this?

[bisouled]

How could you tell? [ it's a joke. ] Movies...? What's that?

[robopriest]

Haha, I'm not the one looking out the window all bright-eyed.

[A huff.]

It's like...a story told through moving pictures? Some of those stories are set in space.

[bisouled]

Moving pictures?

[ huh... she can't really picture this. ]

Never heard of anything like that, either. Pictures don't move where I'm from.

[robopriest]

Well, you're in for a treat. If they ever have any movies here, you have to go see one. It'll blow your mind.

[He's wandering into the kitchen maybe to eat something for distraction, but...]

[Oh.]

[There's water on the floor.]

[There's Fiora on the floor.]

[He blinks at this whole scene, before gesturing to the cup in her hands.]

Uh. Are you okay? What happened?

[bisouled]

Oh, Hansa... I don't know.

[ she sighs, sounding bone-tired, and sets the cup down on the floor, resting her arms over her knees. Last time this happened, she was embarrassed, but at this point, she's too exhausted to feel shame over her drinking problem. ]

Something's wrong with me. Honestly, something's wrong with this whole place.

[robopriest]

...You can say that again.

[He says, with a light groan - but he's already moving into a squat so he can look her better in the eyes.]

But seriously. What's going on with you?

[bisouled]

I mean it - I don't know. I've been having problems drinking since last week.

[ and she feels very foolish about it. ]

It's just the icing on top of everything else here.

[robopriest]

...

[Well, there can be one possibility.]

Did you forget how to drink?

[bisouled]

...

[ she did not consider this. ]

But that's so stupid - could something like that actually happen?

week 2, friday

[bisouled]

[ more people are dead - and the worst part about it is that Fiora can barely muster up the energy to be shocked about it, by this point. They knew this would happen. She knew - but, once again, she was helpless to do anything about it, as clueless as she was this time last week.

But that's not what she's here for. She looks around for Hansa for a while, but when she can't find him, she's left with one place left to check... ]

Um... Hansa? Are you in there?

[ how does one knock on a blanket fort...... she's tapping the top very lightly with one hand. ]

[robopriest]

[He pokes his head out, like a rabbit in a warren.]

...Oh, Fiora. [He's holding a pillow in his hands.] What's going on?

[He's preoccupied with fort?]

[bisouled]

[ it's such a strange picture that she can't help laughing behind her hand a little. ]

Oh, I... wanted to talk to you about something. In private. [ tilting her head. ] Is it just you?

[ are blanca and won also in there... ]

[robopriest]

Yes, its just me.

[He managed to build a separate fort away from them for the time being.]

Go ahead. I'm listening.

[bisouled]

... Well, this is a bit of a long shot, but do you know anything about repairing mechanical bodies like ours?

[ a chagrined look. ]

I'm worried about mine after that blast.

[robopriest]

Hm, quite a bit. Sometimes I'm far, far away from anyone who can fix me up, so I've learned how to do some repairs myself.

[He blinks at her - and understanding comes over through the connection. Of course. They really can't just walk over to a first aid station when they get hurt.]

Are you malfunctioning in any way?

w3 monday

[robopriest]

Hey there.

[Wherever she is, Hansa will approach, smiling in a friendly sort of way.]

Want me to check that thing out, now that the rule's gone?

[bisouled]

[ she's hanging around the inn today, fortunately! she went out exploring earlier, but now she's exhausted - much more than she thought she would be. Which is why it's a relief to see Hansa. ]

Oh, Hansa! If you have the time, sure. [ a beat; she offers a somewhat chagrined smile. ] This is a good day for it, actually. For some reason, I can't feel anything at all.

[ fiora internally: hope it's not nerve damage ]

[robopriest]

Oh? You can't feel anything?

[That's not good.]

I heard people were losing senses...and I couldn't taste my breakfast this morning. So maybe its just that?

[bisouled]

That's what I'm guessing. I guess we should be grateful we didn't lose anything terribly important.

[ she would hate to be blind or deaf while her life is apparently in danger all the time. ]

[robopriest]

We should be. The last thing we need is to be in more danger.

[And a beat.]

We might need to find some tools. I don't have any on hand, myself.

[bisouled]

Oh - sure. You think they'd have any in the Emporium?

[ it doesn't seem like that kind of store, though. ]

... Maybe the rail station.
