Dungeon Residential Camps, Somewhere, Saturday

[not_a_whiner]

And then the pathways slammed shut.

Oh, not all of them. Most of them simply rearranged themselves. But whatever had connected each camp to another had been violently stripped away. They were alone now, and they were easy prey. At least the winds had settled down...

The maze had grown more erratic, however. Instead of speeding up time for all, it was now slowing it down at random in different places. Anyone caught in a sudden bubble of it would find themselves slowing down compared to the rest of the world. Awkward.

Camp Three - Main Space

[not_a_whiner]

Between some of the torches there are little alcoves, just wide enough to fit a single human being lying down.

Savannah had pushed herself as far back into one of the alcoves as she could. This whole experience had been bad enough. She couldn't remember the last time she had slept and eating hadn't really been a priority for her since...

Her mind wasn't quick enough to block out the images in her mind.

Angela was gone.

A choked sound came from her before she could stop it and she brought her fists to squeeze at her temples. They had been almost inseparable for such a long time and now she was dead.

Angela was dead and Savannah hadn't been able to save her.

She no longer cared if she ever got out of here and it was starting to do a number on her self-control, her mental state and her powers.


[[OOC: "Death/Grue'ing of Angela discussed between muns prior to plot as Ange!mun is out of contact for next few days. :D

Also, open if anyone wants to deal with the going insane witch.]]

Liara was not what one might call a social butterfly, but... well, she was hardly about to ignore a human in need if there was some small thing she could do for them.

"Would you like an apple?" she asked, squatting by Savannah's side.

It took Savannah a few minutes to realize that someone was speaking to her.

"I... I don't know if I can eat," she managed to say honestly.

Re: Camp Three - Main Space

"It is important that you consume something, to absorb nutrients," Liara said. All right, lecturing a traumatized human might not be the smartest thing to do, but this was hardly her field.

She put the apple down in front of Savannah anyhow.

Savannah wasn't so broken, yet, that she would be mean to someone being nice, so she picked up the apple.

"She's gone," she said by way of explanation.

Re: Camp Three - Main Space

"Who?" Liara asked, sitting down in front of her.

"Angela," Savannah whispered.

Re: Camp Three - Main Space

[fewer_explosions]

"Ah." Liara regarded Savannah's expression for a moment. "She was one of the older girls."

Re: Camp Three - Main Space

[walks-two-paths.livejournal.com]

Savannah nodded. "She was more than my best friend."

Re: Camp Three - Main Space

"Then I am sorry you lost your lover," Liara said quietly.

She hoped she was not drawing the wrong conclusions. Humans were sometimes vague.

"She was such a good person," Savannah whispered. "So very good."

Re: Camp Three - Main Space

[fewer_explosions]

Liara reached over to put her hand on Savannah's shoulder. She wasn't completely sure what else to do. "I'm sorry," she repeated. "But you do need to eat."

Savannah looked at the apple in her hands and then took a very small bite.
