[i have been writing starters but i honestly can't tell where the hell charles would be JAN HELP ME

put charles somewhere appropriate before i make him out of character]

[riverbeans]

[help HONESTLY HE'S EXPLORING SO HE COULD BE WHEREVER*

*somewhere normal before you turn this into a shower thread or something]

[satisficing]

[DAMN MY SHOWER THREAD WITH CHARLES!!!!!!

They can be at (throws dart) the lounge!! Mostly because Viktor needs to fucking sit periodically and it gives him time to be a nerd and look through the IRIS system more, to learn it's ins and outs. The reason he looks up is because he sees motion.]

You finally got through the door, I see.

[riverbeans]

[yo. he shrugs, smiling wryly.]

Well, I got through a door. I wouldn't say it was the door, because that one's still locked.

[satisficing]

A door is a door, is it not?

[Sometimes you go through another door.......... Is it the wrong door? MAYBE...]

Perhaps it was locked for a good reason. Exploring?

[riverbeans]

Yeah, it's nice to be able to stretch my legs. You?

[satisficing]

I agree.

[DESPITE, YOU KNOW...... Having a bad leg. Back. A bad everything.]

Just browsing this... system we've been given. It has profiles on all of us, but they are written strangely.

w0, sat

[CHARLESSSSSSSSSSS

He is sitting in the lounge because he has an old man body one thread away from breaking. He needs to sit.]

Are you alright?

[riverbeans]

[viktor your old man body]

Could be better, could be worse. Think it was a pretty bad day for most people, really.

[satisficing]

[it's breaking down]

I'm not sure where you always get this level optimism, Charles, but I wish you could share it.

[riverbeans]

Is that really optimism...? But hey—

[











attempts to send (tired) positive vibes viktor's way]

[satisficing]

[wtf............ this makes him fucking laugh, but like very short and quiet, a PUFF OF AIR MAYBE HIS LAST (no)]

You don't have to waste your energy.

[riverbeans]

I've got a lot of that, at least. Relatively.

[he is very tired tonight but he is doing his best.]

But I dunno. I wouldn't say I'm optimistic—I'd like to think I'm just practical.

TRAVELER

[it's presumably not morning anymore but there was nothing better. anyway this is a very innocent message and definitely not charles trying to discreetly check if viktor is a goat right now]

[satisficing]

THE MACHINIST

Good morning, Charles.
Was this another attempt to scare me?

[riverbeans]

[anyway enough code]

i'm not allowed to wish you a good day anymore? come on, i just wanted to know how things were going. you check out strihira yet?

[satisficing]

[YOU ABANDONED IT SO QUICKLY JAN]

Not yet. I've been spending time with Sidon.
Why, have you?

[riverbeans]

[yea]

sidon, huh? say hi to him for me. and i've taken a look here and there.

if you haven't gone out yet, be prepared. it's definitely an interesting place.

[satisficing]

He says hello.
What do you mean by that exactly?

w6, mon

[satisficing]

[HELLO, CHARLES. He is on the second floor of the biome, checking out the aquarium because the bio-luminescent parts are the best.

He's watching some jellyfish bob around, but glances over when he spots Charles.]

They still haven't gone back to teasing you yet, I see.

[riverbeans]

[he smiles.]

Looks like you really are the newest target. Congratulations.

[satisficing]

Please don't congratulate me. This is the worst thing to happen.

[BEING BULLIED ALREADY BY THEM IN UNLIFE AND NOW BEING BULLIED IN THE LIFE BY THEM?]

[riverbeans]

Should I congratulate you on whatever you have going on with Lucien instead?

[satisficing]

[IMMEDIATELY BECOMES FLUSTERED]

N-No! No... You don't... have to do that.

[riverbeans]

[a little laugh]

Hey, if you're happy, then I'm happy for you.
