Dungeon Residential Camps, Somewhere, Friday

A strong wind tore through the hallways. Inside the camps, it was only audible: no breeze flicked into the large chambers themselves. Outside them, though, torches would flicker on and off on their own whim, exposing the dungeon's residents to errant grues.

There was something to be celebrated, though: when the maze shifted overnight, its paths crossed and connected all three camps. Time for a reunion.

[ camp one | camp two | camp three | ooc as of yesterday, everyone in camp 1 is free to assume they know about the first key and the vault. ]

Camp Three - Main Space

[personal profile] not_a_whiner 2013-04-12 08:21 am (UTC)(link)
The central chamber is dimly lit but light enough to keep out the grues. There is a torch grafted to the wall every few feet, its flames flickering but never going out. A single water fountain rests between two torches. When activated, it releases a thin stream of water. In one corner, there are bags on the floor, big enough to be worn by an adult-sized human.

Yesterday had sucked and Jaina didn't want to talk about it. At least Oprah had distracted her from dealing with having Myrkr dragged back up and thrown at her?

She was checking the charge on her blasters and then she was going back out. Hopefully before anyone could ask her if she went crazy yesterday.
newroutines: ([neu] How is that supposed to work?)

"So uh, did you go crazy yesterday?"

Sucks to be you, Jaina! Although to Mike's credit, he looked sincerely concerned.

Of course.

Jaina sighed, then looked up at him. "No. One of the rooms was filled with gremlins," she explained.
newroutines: ([neu] Kidding me right?)

This? Was the confused look of someone who was still somehow new enough to Fandom to not know what that meant. Lucky him.

"I'm sorry," he said, "but I think you're gonna have to explain a bit more. Filled with what now?"
solo_sword: (really?)

Re: Camp Three - Main Space

[personal profile] solo_sword 2013-04-12 01:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Jaina blinked. "You don't know what a gremlin is?"

SHE WAS SO JEALOUS.
newroutines: ([neu] Definitely listening.)

[personal profile] newroutines 2013-04-12 01:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Mike shrugged and held up his hands, like what could you do?

"Sorry, no."
solo_sword: (and more serious)

[personal profile] solo_sword 2013-04-12 01:46 pm (UTC)(link)
"You are so lucky," she said. "They're these little green things, they show up in Fandom a lot. They bite you, and their venom makes you hallucinate that you're something else. Like apparently Oprah."

Ugh.
newroutines: ([pos] Yeah okay I guess.)

Re: Camp Three - Main Space

[personal profile] newroutines 2013-04-12 01:53 pm (UTC)(link)
"Ohhh." Well, yes, that sounded... both bad and pretty accurate. Still, he gave her a wry smile. "Well, for what it's worth, you made a really good Oprah. Feeling better?"
solo_sword: (i kinda rule)

Re: Camp Three - Main Space

[personal profile] solo_sword 2013-04-12 02:17 pm (UTC)(link)
"Yes. Luckily it was only one bite," Jaina said. "And if I run into any more, I'm just going to start shooting."
newroutines: ([neu] Should not do that.)

Re: Camp Three - Main Space

[personal profile] newroutines 2013-04-12 02:42 pm (UTC)(link)
"That sounds like an excellent plan." No, really. They had enough trouble without gremlins. "So you're gonna head out again, huh?"
solo_sword: (resigned)

[personal profile] solo_sword 2013-04-12 02:46 pm (UTC)(link)
She nodded. "There's at least one other camp and people have gone missing," she said. "Maybe I can find them, or just bring stuff back, but sitting around here drives me nuts."
newroutines: ([neu] Lip thing.)

[personal profile] newroutines 2013-04-12 03:10 pm (UTC)(link)
"Yeah, I hear you," Mike agreed, scratching the back of his head. "It's getting ridiculous to be stuck here, anyway."
solo_sword: (conversating)

Re: Camp Three - Main Space

[personal profile] solo_sword 2013-04-12 03:30 pm (UTC)(link)
"What, you're not having fun here?" Jaina asked dryly.
newroutines: ([neu] Talky talk.)

Re: Camp Three - Main Space

[personal profile] newroutines 2013-04-12 05:03 pm (UTC)(link)
"No, ma'am." He clucked his tongue for further effect. "About ready to go home and see which jobs I got fired from for not showing up."
solo_sword: (you know...)

Re: Camp Three - Main Space

[personal profile] solo_sword 2013-04-12 05:09 pm (UTC)(link)
"I think anyplace in Fandom will write this off as extenuating circumstances," Jaina said.
newroutines: ([neu] Down to business.)

Re: Camp Three - Main Space

[personal profile] newroutines 2013-04-12 05:22 pm (UTC)(link)
"Oh, it's not Fandom I'm worried about," Mike assured her, shaking his head. "I mean, I hope my boss isn't anywhere here, but I doubt she'd fire me for this. Anyone on the mainland, however..."

He hoped this didn't affect his reputation in the field of construction.
solo_sword: (hmmm)

Re: Camp Three - Main Space

[personal profile] solo_sword 2013-04-12 05:34 pm (UTC)(link)
"If you need help convincing her, let me know," Jaina said after a pause. "If youarenot opposed to mind tricks, anyway."
newroutines: ([neu] Definitely listening.)

Re: Camp Three - Main Space

[personal profile] newroutines 2013-04-12 05:41 pm (UTC)(link)
"Uh, I think I might be." He looked curious, all the same. "You can do that?"
solo_sword: (chin lift)

Re: Camp Three - Main Space

[personal profile] solo_sword 2013-04-12 05:45 pm (UTC)(link)
She nodded. "I'm a Jedi. I tend not to do things like that unless I have to for ethical reasons, but again, extenuating circumstances."
newroutines: ([neu] Nope.)

"Think I'll be good without. But that is a pretty cool skill, though."

He was maybe starting to feel a little inferior with all these superpowered folks around. But it was okay, he had his strengths.
solo_sword: (hearing you out)

Re: Camp Three - Main Space

[personal profile] solo_sword 2013-04-12 07:27 pm (UTC)(link)
"There are better skills. Not that all of them are usable in here."

The fun thing about Jaina was that she was doing just fine without them, though.
newroutines: ([neu] If that is how you are playing it.)

Re: Camp Three - Main Space

[personal profile] newroutines 2013-04-12 08:34 pm (UTC)(link)
"Haven't seen that stopping your from coming and going all the time." Yeah, he paid attention to who came and went. That seemed like a semi-useful thing to do. "Seem to be doing just fine."

Which was a very good thing, because they needed people like that.
solo_sword: (action star pose)

"Yeah, it's just irritating," she shrugged. "Means I'll just beat up whoever's doing this even more when this is over."
