"Well, if I don't ~remember~ them, I'm not exactly missing out, am I?"

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Feb 09, 2016 9:40 pm

"It's still yours, and it's obvious that giving you some of it but not the rest is... not working, aye?"

by **Will Stanton** » Tue Feb 09, 2016 9:45 pm

"Says who?"

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Feb 09, 2016 9:57 pm

"Says the Headmistress' face you hit with an anvil."

by **Will Stanton** » Tue Feb 09, 2016 9:59 pm

"She's a robot! It didn't even slow her down, c'mon."

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Feb 09, 2016 10:03 pm

"Will, this is scaring me."

by **Will Stanton** » Tue Feb 09, 2016 10:08 pm

"Why? Why on Earth are you frightened of me?"

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Feb 09, 2016 10:12 pm

"Because of what you did, Will. Because you don't think it's wrong."

by **Will Stanton** » Tue Feb 09, 2016 10:21 pm

"Defending the innocent is never wrong, Sam."

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Feb 09, 2016 10:22 pm

"If it had been anyone else, she'd be a smear on the wall."

by **Will Stanton** » Tue Feb 09, 2016 10:24 pm

"If it had been anyone else, I wouldn't have had to use an anvil, Sam. Try to keep up."

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Feb 09, 2016 10:28 pm

"I've talked with Miriam, Will. She said she's not going to stand in the way of me unlocking the rest of the box. That was already... a tense situation with her."

"And maybe... maybe we should talk about that a bit too."

by **Will Stanton** » Tue Feb 09, 2016 10:38 pm

"So, what would YOU have had me do there, then, Sam?"

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Feb 09, 2016 10:40 pm

"Not hit the bloody headmistress so they have to cage you up in here like you're a bloody supervillain!" She snaps.

by **Will Stanton** » Tue Feb 09, 2016 10:42 pm

"So, when she comes to rip YOUR secrets out of your head, I should just smile and nod? Strap you down so you can't fight? Is that it?"

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Feb 09, 2016 10:50 pm

"Well you're not doing any good locked up like this, are you? Great bloody plan, Will!"

by **Will Stanton** » Tue Feb 09, 2016 10:52 pm

Will smashed his fist against the force-field, sending crackling energy around, and bouncing him back a few steps.

"I can take care of myself if I need to."

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Feb 09, 2016 10:55 pm

Sam winces when Will rams the force field, then looks at him with wide eyes.

"You need help, Will."

by **Will Stanton** » Tue Feb 09, 2016 10:56 pm

"You're right. So if you would just disable the forcefield..."

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Feb 09, 2016 10:57 pm

"Not... not until we talk about the box, Will."

by **Will Stanton** » Tue Feb 09, 2016 10:59 pm

"I'm not so sure I ~want~ to talk about the box."

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Feb 09, 2016 11:01 pm

"But we've talked about it before, aye? It's important."

by **Will Stanton** » Tue Feb 09, 2016 11:16 pm

"Yeah, but you seemed to be of the opinion that it was best to leave well enough alone, and now you want to pry it open."

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Feb 09, 2016 11:53 pm

"That was because of what Miriam saw in there, but that was also before you started acting like this, aye?"

by **Will Stanton** » Tue Feb 09, 2016 11:58 pm

"i haven't. Done. Anything.

WRONG!" he shouted, slamming himself against the forcefield again, and smashing his head on the back of the cell from the recoil.

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Feb 10, 2016 12:01 am

Sam winces again, and sighs.

"...you can't even see it, can you?"

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Feb 10, 2016 12:17 am

"I see someone who the headmistress has gotten to, don't I? I'm no more important than that satellite, and she wants you to reprogram me."

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Feb 10, 2016 12:18 am

"...if you don't even trust me now, then I guess there's no point."

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Feb 10, 2016 12:26 am

"How can I? You've come in here, buying the headmistress' story hook, like and sinker."

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Feb 10, 2016 12:29 am

"Will, I'm sorry."

"...you can hate me later," she mutters to herself.

"Sleep." She says, backing up the word by reaching out with her mind to try to make it so.

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Feb 10, 2016 12:39 am

"Nnnn...no..." Will said, staggering back, and throwing one hand up, as if that was going to stop anything.

He staggered back and fell against one wall of his cell, crumpling onto the floor.

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Feb 10, 2016 12:44 am

"Why does the right thing have to feel so bad?" She mumbles, before casting out her mind to enter Will's.

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Feb 10, 2016 5:36 am

In Will's mindscape, the forest had gotten nearly out of control. Thick, colorful, Loraxian trees sprouted everywhere, engulfing the formerly barren mindscape.

The forest was alive with the sounds of wild animals.

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Feb 10, 2016 5:45 am

Sam's avatar seems to flicker as she makes her way between the trees. Badb appears frequently, but only for a brief flash before being pushed back down into something more mundane. It's hard to see, but there's glimpses of other shapes as well as she navigates towards the feeling of the box.

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Feb 10, 2016 5:47 am

There were enough bearings, and things seemed familiar enough, that should could head in the general direction of the box.

She was being stalked, though. Badb could sense it, at least, and the rest of her thought it was fairly clear, as well.

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Feb 10, 2016 5:53 am

Badb comes into sharp focus for a moment.

"Don't. Even. Start.."

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Feb 10, 2016 5:56 am

"These are my woods. What brings you here, NOW?" the Warrior said, slinking out from behind a tree.

His eyes were yellow slits, his hair ran down his back, wild and out of control. "I hunt here. You're either on my side, or my prey."

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Feb 10, 2016 5:58 am

"I told you I'd be back. Why are you surprised?"

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Feb 10, 2016 5:59 am

""You stayed away long enough. I thought the other one had dragged you away.

Maybe she has."

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Feb 10, 2016 6:01 am

"I see you've made yourself at home, but I can't leave this unfinished."
