looking back on the track for a little green bag

[phaseshifted]

Date & Time: 12/29/13 - 1/1/13
Location: the middle of America in the past
Characters: Erika, Christopher, Flora, Angel
Summary: the dream team goes to get information
Warnings: no deaths


[So a detective, a homunculus, a fairy, and a Siren go back in time to the middle of the United States to steal secrets on genetic research and projects. What could go wrong, really?

Hope no one was expecting to see things other than fields at OKKAN AGRI.]

Transports: This mission will place you the day before the annual "Farm Works Festival", meant for students to tour and learn more about what goes on at OKKAN. The crowds should be sufficiently large to enter the facilities in, after which you are tasked to retrieve information on new genetic developments and projects to bring back to the Initiative. The festival is two days in duration, after which you will be retrieved to this time period. Please exercise caution, and good luck.

Hm, perhaps you're right. [He taps his jaw, thoughtful.] No idea. I never bother with being responsible for the things I do.

[showmeyourwreath]

And why is that?

[inhumanity]

Well . . . doesn't seem like a lot of fun, does it?

[Yup.]

[showmeyourwreath]

[omg]

Responsibility isn't supposed to be fun, Christopher, it just is.

[inhumanity]

I don't like that, so no.

[showmeyourwreath]

You can't just do as you please without considering and accepting the consequences.

[Flora do you know who youre talking 2 rn]

[inhumanity]

Of course I can.

[Come on Flora.]

[showmeyourwreath]

You shouldn't.

[inhumanity]

Don't care!

[showmeyourwreath]

[For a moment and only that, there's a spark of something. He doesn't care. How could he? But this is him, isn't it? It's knowing that she stares at him without speaking. She's not certain that pursuing this conversation will be productive, especially since she needs her focus for other things.

Besides, her track record with him is pretty abysmal, isn't it? Maybe she shouldn't bother trying, any more.]

That's going to get you in trouble.

[not that she care IT'S NOT LIKE THEY'RE FRIENDS OR ANYTHING!!!]

[inhumanity]

[Christopher smiles back. It isn't a shit-eating grin, just a normal smile. A happy declaration of someone she can't reject.]

Very often. Things are fun, that way.

[showmeyourwreath]

[She wishes it were a grin. It'd be easier.]

There is such a thing as too much, you know.

[...okay no, not even she really believes that, but the subtext is hopefully clear: you can go too far.]

[inhumanity]

Oh, I know. [He gives her a broad, self-satisfied grin.] I intend on finding that point... and surpassing it.

[showmeyourwreath]

What if it's too much for you to handle?
