[ WEEK FOUR ]

WEEK FOUR

CURRENT POPULATION: 28 It's a rather quaint town when you get down to it. At least, that's what the Sheriff would argue. Warm and dry in the mornings and afternoons with a brisk coolness in the evenings. The perfect type of weather to just sit out on your rocking chair and observe the comings and goings. ... Of course, there's not much in the way of comings and goings when there aren't any actual people here to watch. Nevertheless, don't let that get you down! The town is your oyster and those roosters won't stop crowing until everyone's out of bed. Up and at 'em, rise and shine, it's time to make the day yours! After all, there's nothing wrong with the town today and you might just want to savor it while it lasts. This post functions as the general mingle post for the week. Wanted Posters and other small events will be posted in top levels below. If there's any questions or requests, please send a PM or shoot a PP to robowest.

Not really. That just means you walk faster.

[Or have a nervous breakdown. You know, either/or.]

[expelliarmed]

Or go insane.

[ Yeah, either/or. ]

[robitussin]

[Immediately, and maybe a bit too forceful:]

No. Not me. I'm not - I'm fine.

[It looks like he hit one of her buttons. Oops. She realizes as soon as she gives that defense that it's probably not what he meant, though.]

...Sorry.

[expelliarmed]

[ He casts a cursory glance over at her. Did he say something wrong?

He's quiet for a few moments, thoughtful, before he goes on: ]

Most people also wouldn't be able to bounce back from losing a limb like you have.

[ Or maybe "bounce back" isn't the right phrase. It's more like forging ahead when you should stop because if you stop -

He gets that, too. ]

[robitussin]

[Once he's moved off the topic of, well, insanity, she does seem to calm down slightly. She breathes in and out, shrugging a bit.]

...Don't know if I'd call it bouncing back. [She admits after a few long moments of silence.] But it's not like I had much of a choice.

[When she finally woke up last week after finding her way back from the tunnels, it was just in time to hear the list of the deceased on Friday. Percy and Xion needed her, even if it feels like part of her still hasn't come back from the mines.]

[expelliarmed]

Well, there's always a choice. You could've given up.

[ This is important for him to point out. ]

[robitussin]

I also could have not gone into the deep, dark, and obviously sketchy hole in the ground, so.

[A soft sigh.]

I get what you're trying to do, but I'm fine. Seriously.
