27 - video; it's getting hot in here. (backdated a day or so)

[hungryanhorny]

 Headache... fever... random pricks.  I missing any of the symptoms?  [She tilts her head, a meaningless show of defiance.] 

Better not be thinking I'm just gonna lock the door, either. Know a whole bunch of you would like that. Slayer in a can, right? Probably can't wait to take me...

Shit. [She forces herself to breathe, eyes shutting.] Can't even trust myself to think... How many ways this place gonna go messing with my head, huh?  'Cause I gotta say, getting pretty sick of it....

Sick of this whole place actually. Sorta thing that makes me wanna smack something. Take the whole thing down a peg, you know?

It'd be nice if that worked, though, wouldn't it? Punch something, sickness goes away. Anyway, since it doesn't, why not lock your door? Extra safety could only help until this insanity dies down.

Thinking I'll keep my options open. Unless you got a better reason why I shouldn't?

[Blink. Was she flirting at him? Fuck, he needs coffee.]

Uh. Can't think of any except general avoidance of death?

[hungryanhorny]

[No. Though one shouldn't put it past her.]

Thought I'd give anything in here a chance to get out.

Why let them in to begin with? Unless you're just looking for a fight, which case, hey, more power to ya. Just seems like it'd be pointless.

[darknessb4me]

You understand that if you kill yourself and reset, it will go away?

[hungryanhorny]

Yeah. Sure everyone would like that, too. Taking B out not enough? [She's not even making sense to herself, right now. Thoughts are too fragmented.

It's like how she used to think, before...]

[darknessb4me]

What?

No wait, don't answer. I don't care.

[hungryanhorny]

You and the rest of the barge.

[darknessb4me]

We would, because if you reset you can't do damage to anyone but yourself.

[timesbureaucrat]

Oh, we always have quite a few random pricks here. Arthas, Rex, the Marquis--both of them--not to mention my good self.

[He should be taking this more seriously, and in normal circumstances would be. But Iris takes very little seriously and there's too much of her in his brain right now.]

[hungryanhorny]

Think there's a hole I'd love to shove them in, too.

Not the sorta prick I meant, though. [It's best not to ask what's going on in Faith's shambles of a brain right now.]

[timesbureaucrat]

Oh my.

Well, the ship has plenty of pricks of the other sort as well.

[hungryanhorny]

Sorta thinking the ones with needles, actually.

[timesbureaucrat]

Oh, that's far less fun.

For most people, at least.

[ichoosefight]

Faith? I need you to get down to the infirmary. Can you do that?

[hungryanhorny]

...Didn't think you cared any more, BG.

[ichoosefight]

Will you go to the infirmary, Faith?

[hungryanhorny]

Why?

You planning something? [Suspicious. She's glaring.]

[ichoosefight]

Yeah, I'm planning on keeping you alive. Please?

[je_suis_avec_toi]

I could find someone and send them to you.

[hungryanhorny]

Someone for what?

Think Steph's coming anyhow.

[je_suis_avec_toi]

There's magic to make you feel better.

[A pause.]

I know that sounds ridiculous.

[hungryanhorny]

Sounds like something B would come up with.

[je_suis_avec_toi]

It's good sense. If they can help you, won't you go get help?
