whichever asshole has been moving the buildings around, can you not do that? you're making my job really freaking hard.

( No one is moving any buildings. Clarice has just pretending she hasn't got the weird sickness everyone else has. But maybe right now she's definitely heading into delirious category. Thankfully, she knows enough not to try portalling right now. Sitting down, catching her breath, not panicking. Those are good ideas.

She needs to be distracted. )

and i'm pretty sure the body mod parlour people are trying to induct me into a cult. i don't even have pierced ears!

[expeditiousness]

[viatorius]

Where are you, darling?

[viatorius]

bench.
by the cyborg tattoo parlour place.

( She just needs to sit for a second, it's all good. )

i'm okay, i just got weirdly tired for a minute there.

[spellslots]

You sure about that one, cause it's no skin off my nose if you need a ride home

[viatorius]

i could probably portal back, i just need a second.

( N o. )

i'll call john, if i don't feel any better. maybe i've just overdone it with the deliveries.

( Although she'd much rather suck it up and deal with it. )

pretty sure buildings don't move
do you need a map?

[viatorius]

no.
i know where the buildings are! they're just not where they're supposed to be right now.

( Give her a second, the moon's spinning. )

[evite]

is that how you found the cult?

( she's not totally convinced this girl isn't high off her rocker right now. but she'll go with it. )

do they want to pierce your ears?

[viatorius]

maybe?
they probably think i'm one of them. my face is weird enough.

[tanker]

do you need me to come pick you up? are you getting sick?

[viatorius]

i'm fine.

( She is better than this! )

i'm pretty sure i just got lightheaded for a second.

[tanker]

just come home if you're sick, okay?

[viatorius]

i'm pretty sure you're not going to be immune to this shit, babe.

( Whoops. "Babe", and admitting she's sick. Great day. )

I don't think they're moving. Have you had any other signs of being sick?

[viatorius]

Um.

( Goddamnit, she's going to have to admit it eventually. )

I have a headache, I guess? But I figured it was just stress? Lots of people at work have been knocked out, so I've been covering.

[11calls]

You may want to head into the hospital to get checked out if you can. Just to be on the safe side?

[viatorius]

I do kinda badly with hospitals.

( Mostly because she's a mutant and back home that's not a great thing. She's avoided them pretty much forever. )

I'll drink some water, I'm sure I'm just dehydrated.

What, exactly, makes you think it's a cult?

[viatorius]

they all have the same haircut.
so it's either cult or boyband.

[godslay]

"Boyband?"

There needn't be a cult for you to enjoy a few piercings.

[viatorius]

yeah, you're probably right. i've never thought about it before.
