I... I don't know! I was just having lunch! Then I was on the beach and that bastard Laurence was yelling at me!

[ just being really really unlucky will do it ]

[rippled]

... I think that is worse luck than what I have.

[ and they went on cyoa twice ]

[blink_gone]

—Ah, whatever!!

[ it's annoying/traumatic but what can you do. also he doesn't know the layout of this place but he'll point to the hospital now that he notices where they are. ]

Wait, were you coming out of there?

[rippled]

Oh. Yeah.

[ they raise their left hand. there is no hand. it is just a bandaged stump. ]

I got injured today.

[blink_gone]

[ me god. ]

What the hell. Get back in there.

[rippled]

But people can find me in there.

[ they're escaping. ]

[blink_gone]

That's the point.

[ having medical attention. ]

Where are you even trying to get to?

[rippled]

I just wanted to find a place to sit. Fuck you.

[blink_gone]

[ till does not understand curses on thursday so he is offended, again, ]

Fuck you? I was just asking!

[rippled]

Oh, that was not me.

[ this sounds insane ]

[blink_gone]

[ stares at them ]

You said it?

[rippled]

That was the effect...

[ obviously... ]

[blink_gone]

I hate it here...

[ what does that even mean...

he sighs loudly. ]

Can't you just sit out here somewhere then?

[rippled]

If I am too close to the hospital people will see me as they go by..

[blink_gone]

[ frowns for a couple seconds in thought, eventually deciding, ]

...I guess if you're not trying to go far, I'll go with you.

[ better than leaving this injured person unattended? also, he understands the urge to Escape. ]

[rippled]

Let's go to the gazebo then.

[ it is in the neighborhood so it's close by... it's a nice sitting spot. ]

[blink_gone]

Sure.

[ he doesn't know his way around, so he'll just have to follow saber. ]

What happened to your hand, anyway?

[rippled]

Oh, there are odd excursions we are sent on at random every week. They tend to be very dangerous.

[ obviously. given the injuries. ]

This was my second one though, which is unusual...

[blink_gone]

That must be what happened to Laurence too...

[ trying to get thursday context from a person who will be dead tonight ]

You're just that unlucky, huh?

[rippled]

I am normally very lucky... I do not know what happened here to me?

[blink_gone]

[ see you tomorrow francy... ]

Luck must've gone out the window to show up here at all.

[ they arrive at the katsucon gazebo for sitting, though till kinda waits to make sure they actually do so any don't plan on. bolting or something. ]
