Detention, Depths of the Castle, Friday

[bigdamnprisoner.livejournal.com]

So, one of the important things to realize about detention was that the monotony of everyone's daily lives was part of the punishment. That meant that even though someone had died yesterday, the day's schedule didn't change a bit.

After all, most of your little lives just weren't that important in the grand scheme of things.

Enjoy Your Breakfast [07/27]

There was some sort of warm egg product on your plates today. Consider yourselves lucky to be eating it!

Jack was never the type to lose his appetite, and even Sookie's death didn't take it from him. He wished it had: you got to feel guilty, chomping away when everyone else was staring blankly into space.

So he ate his eggs, though even his appetite wasn't enough to really let him taste them. He might as well have been chewing on cardboard.

He probably would have chewed on cardboard.

Despite the events of yesterday Goose still managed to eat his food, he did feel bad about it though and spent most of the time picking at it as he debated on whether or not to eat but eventually he ate the contents that were on his plate.

Hanna skipped dinner last night. Not because of her paranoia. It was because the events of yesterday made her lose her appetite. So she made sure to eat breakfast this morning.

Jamie was... strangely alert today. He was even staring at his breakfast as though it was palatable.

"Marie."

And almost coherent.

Florida was far more cautious this morning than usual. She slunk along the wall till she had an absolutely clear shot at the table, then ran forward, snatched up some food, and then fled back under her cot to eat it.

Liara was a little wary of the egg, actually. She poked at it for a while; only then did she give in to hunger and started scarfing it up.

Okay, no way was April eating that. Eggs were for tossing at people's houses on Halloween, not for eating in liquidy form for breakfast.

Even though she knew she'd regret it when she got hungry later, she made a fun game of slowly flicking it toward the edge of the table. Wheeeee.

So, not to be insensitive or anything- at least not on purpose- Jaye kept looking over at what she'd privately started thinking of as the Bobsookle and wondering if maybe he wouldn't be willing to help a sister out and hand over some ice for her water?

Yeah, that was probably insensitive.

Stark hadn't eaten last night. He was tempted not to eat today as well but decided that wouldn't help anything.

He ate some, not a lot, and didn't taste what was going into his mouth. Not that there was much taste to begin with.

As a creature of blind optimism in the face of crushing circumstances, Zayne was able to get through the egg product regardless of recent tragedy and the taste of the food. It could have been worse.

Chat With Your Fellow Prisoners [07/27]

Gee, I wonder what on earth you might want to talk about.

Bobby didn't care to chat with anyone, no. He also wasn't going to let go of the body he'd been cradling in his arms since yesterday afternoon.

Re: Chat With Your Fellow Prisoners [07/27]

[cursednotbroken.livejournal.com]

"We should do something," Jack said to anyone who might be listening. His voice sounded a bit feeble, though it gained strength as he kept talking. "Either plan a memorial or figure out some way to charge the guards, I don't care, I just can't sit still today."

Re: Chat With Your Fellow Prisoners [07/27]

Jonothon wasn't speaking, today. In fact, he wasn't really doing much of anything at all.

He was sitting in silence, still as the grave, eyes narrowed toward the door that the loyalist visitors entered through. Occasionally, he'd blink. That was the only indication he gave that he wasn't just a dead man burning.

He might acknowledge you if you approach him. But he wasn't going to be actively seeking out company, today.

Re: Chat With Your Fellow Prisoners [07/27]

It was likely that if anyone cared to try to chat with Florida she would not flee, or attack. She knew enough to know the difference between fellow prisoners and their enemies.

So she'll just be under her cot if anyone's interested.

Zoe wasn't much in the mood for talking, but she was keeping an eye out for anyone who might want to talk to her, or needed someone to be pissed at, or a shoulder to sigh upon. It had been a long time since she'd felt this defeated.

Bruce was able to breathe today. Able to move but didn't really care about it at all.

In fact everything around him meant nothing. Everything that had happened to him before and after coming to Fandom meant nothing.

He was just indifferent. Damn it, Raven.

He flopped back down on his cot only for it to squeak a bit when it rubbed against the wall. He looked at the cot where it had rubbed against the wall and...

seemed slightly mystified. What had happened just now? The scrape against the wall had triggered something.

But what?

Re: Chat With Your Fellow Prisoners [07/27]

[panickedbanik.livejournal.com]

No pacing today for Stark. He was just crouching against a wall, near to and watching Bobby.

There was still whispered praying. He found the repetition comforting, sometimes. At least it was familiar. Though if you listened closely he was talking to himself as well. Or to a voice in his head. It was hard to tell the difference. Sometimes he wasn't even sure.

Dinah had been pacing the confines again, with occasional stops to talk to people.

Re: Chat With Your Fellow Prisoners [07/27]

Rinoa had skipped breakfast. She didn't actually realize she had skipped breakfast.

Her garden was black and twisted and sad. So she couldn't go there any more.

She was never going to see her puppy again, because they were going to die here like Sookie did. And her puppy was dead. Everyone was dead. She had been right on Monday. They were all dead, just in varying degrees.

And so she took her duster off and wrapped it around a small part of her bedding. And she cradled that lump in her lap and talked to it and petted it. And then picked it up and pretended it could hear her and reply.

Anyone passing close by might catch the occasional half-hearted "woof, woof bark."

Re: Chat With Your Fellow Prisoners [07/27]

Off in a corner, Zayne sat crosslegged and talking to himself. If anyone paid careful attention, they would hear a small but strangely confident voice repeating a the same thing over and over.

"There is no emotion, there is peace. There is no ignorance, there is knowledge. There is no passion, there is serenity. There is no chaos, there is harmony. There is no death, there is the Force."

It was that last point that seemed the most valuable today.

Visiting Hours [07/27]

[bigdamnprisoner.livejournal.com]

Will someone else get killed today? Will everyone break down into a group hug? Only time will tell!

Re: Visiting Hours [07/27]

[xxlstretchpants.livejournal.com]

Bruce wasn't aware of much of anything from yesterday. The emotional state that Raven had put him in from the day before was still intact and still... emotionally crippling.

Not that anyone felt differently in detention.

Enjoy Your Dinner [07/27]

[bigdamnprisoner.livejournal.com]

Okay, so maybe one thing might be slightly different today: dinner was lukewarm. You're welcome.

OOC [07/27]

[bigdamnprisoner.livejournal.com]

Re: OOC [07/27]

Omg I just want to say that I have been in semi-tears most of the day due to tacking this post.

THANKS GUYS.
