[ peers around Hardy at the book ]

Is there anything useful in there?

[taking a shaky breath in and out as he reads]

They're trying to freak us out... This thing is straight out of a horror movie. I think the implication is the bodies are... people we've known. And if I'm reading these weird diagrams right, we might have been "summoned" by whatever happened in here. I think one of the circles in the book matches what's on the floor.
bluediligence: (Sorry but I'm allergic.)

[ clutches!! the crowbar!! ]

... O-Oh.

[ Okay. Cool. Cool. ]

But, it's — aren't these all just … [ Stops herself. Shakes her head. ] … I don't really understand, but … there'll be time for that later. We need to focus. So ...

Maybe we should check out that way? [ Points East. ]
1istheloneliest: squarebox @ dreamwidth ([talking] can be so cold)

[personal profile] 1istheloneliest 2022-05-28 08:14 pm (UTC)(link)
I think they're trying to confuse us, mess with our heads. Focus is the right move.

[he shakes his head and winces again, feeling less great every minute]

Agreed. It looked like there was space on the map that way that wasn't obvious.

[to the East]
bluediligence: (Got no intention of listening to that.)

[ aaaa WHAT WAIT WHAT IS THIS, she tries real hard to backpedal out of the way, but she's not fast enough ]

Fu- hhck-

[ stumbles back another step, coughing ]
1istheloneliest: squarebox @ dreamwidth ([shocked] then i'm going awol)

[he was further back and is tugging her away and trying to support her simultaneously]

A trap!?
bluediligence: (Make your mothers blush.)

[personal profile] bluediligence 2022-05-28 08:31 pm (UTC)(link)
I, I guess—

[ it's hard to talk when your lungs feel like they're on fire, augh; covers her mouth with her elbow and coughs and coughs and coughs ]

It ... it must've been ... [ leans back into his support gratefully as the coughing fit passes, her head spinning ]
1istheloneliest: malagraphic @ dreamwidth ([what] oh oh oh oh)

[personal profile] 1istheloneliest 2022-05-28 08:35 pm (UTC)(link)
[rubs her back a little]

Just focus on breathing. I'll... try to figure out where we go from here. As far as I can tell right now... there's that big suspicious button and the door we haven't gone through but it might be a dead end...

[quietly]

Oh. It feels like my hands and feet are falling asleep. That can't be good.
bluediligence: (As regular as clockwork.)

[personal profile] bluediligence 2022-05-28 08:45 pm (UTC)(link)
[ whEEZE ]

[ both a literal and figurative wheeze ]

Maybe they'll be okay if we keep moving. Like when they fall asleep normally and you've gotta move them to get the blood flowing again ... [ it's weak, but she's got nothing else ]

Let's ... maybe try the door, I guess?
1istheloneliest: squarebox @ dreamwidth ([dubious] he hates when i don't call)

[personal profile] 1istheloneliest 2022-05-28 08:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Right, you're right... We'll just keep moving with... urgency. Door it is.

[shuffling off to the West to the door]
1istheloneliest: malagraphic @ dreamwidth ([what] would you take)

[personal profile] 1istheloneliest 2022-05-28 09:11 pm (UTC)(link)
It won't budge. We must need something to open it... Any ideas? I'm trying, but my head feels like it's full of sand.
bluediligence: (Constable in leopard-skin knickers.)

[personal profile] bluediligence 2022-05-28 09:11 pm (UTC)(link)
I could try hitting it with my crowbar.
1istheloneliest: malagraphic @ dreamwidth ([reacting] would you change)

[personal profile] 1istheloneliest 2022-05-28 09:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Go for it. I'm trying to remember if there's anywhere that it looked like a key could be hiding... The pile of rags? That ledge above the trap, but how do we get there without getting gassed again...
bluediligence: (What type of friend guesses a lot?)

[personal profile] bluediligence 2022-05-28 09:17 pm (UTC)(link)
We could try the rags first ... and if they're no good, maybe I could fly to the ledge. [ Maybe. <>Maybe ]

[ but first! she lifts the crowbar, steadying herself as best she can, and smashes it down against the door with all her might ]
bluediligence: (An astronaut broke the law of gravity.)

[ the recoil from the barrier jolts her back, which means there's no way she's dodging that hail of flaming darts ]

Ow! Ow, ow!! [ SHRIEKING just a lil as she frantically tries to get them off get them out aaaaaa ]
1istheloneliest: squarebox @ dreamwidth ([stricken] while you put my ice on)

[he's too late to block all of them but he's going to throw himself over Korone to take whatever brunt he can]

Dammit!!
bluediligence: (Perhaps that's as it should be.)

[personal profile] bluediligence 2022-05-28 09:38 pm (UTC)(link)
[ cool we both get to be in pain and ON FIRE ]

[ flings!! the darts away!! and whimpers at the fresh pain, at the little beads of blood welling up amongst all the burns ]

H-Hardy-san! Hardy-san, are you okay?
1istheloneliest: malagraphic @ dreamwidth ([eyes shut] you're not the one)

[personal profile] 1istheloneliest 2022-05-28 09:41 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm OK. I can take it.

[sways and nearly passes out before straightening up and starting to pull darts out of himself]

Find the key... We gotta... find the key.
bluediligence: (The scarecrow got a promotion!)

[personal profile] bluediligence 2022-05-28 09:47 pm (UTC)(link)
[ she wants to sit down or maybe pass out, and she very nearly ends up doing both; it takes everything she has to keep her feet ]

R, Right ...

[ they have A GOAL ]

Right. Okay. Key.

[ she takes a deep breath, stifling another coughing fit ]

We can, we can do this.
