A girl was home alone and she walked downstairs. Nothing was there, but she heard the littlest noise even though nothing was there. So she went back upstairs and climbed into bed. At 12.00 PM she woke up to find a little girl standing at the foot of her bed. The little girl slit her throat open and left her for dead. Nobody found her corpse for around 3 weeks and by then she really smelled! Send this to 3 people or else by 12PM you will see a dead girl at the foot of your bed!
how do you feel about making a trip down to the tunnels sometime soon
i wanna get a record of everything that's down there before retrospec decides to change it back up on us again and you're pretty good with technology, right?
[ Okay, so Leo knows he messed up. He feels bad about it, especially with a friend involved. But maybe dropping by isn’t the best plan, or so he’s wondering by the time he reaches Penelope’s door. It’s not like he’s ever been good at talking about sensitive stuff like… whatever happened with Pen and those flowers, but. She’s his friend and this whole thing sucks so here he is anyway.
God, he’s bad at this. Whatever, he’s knocking anyway. ]
[Honestly Leo is probably overthinking this, at least somewhat. Yeah, she'd been hurt by the flowers, but she wasn't mad at Leo because of that. He hadn't known and she was reasonable enough not to blame him for that stuff.
Either way, she appears at the door and opens it, gesturing him into her place.]
Yeah, was just working on costume stuff and running a couple of diagnostics. Come on in. I was expecting you though.
[She waves a hand around the living space, which is...pretty geeky and covered in computers and costume stuff. Nothing fancy, but definitely a home like Penelope would have.]
Got a moment for coffee? I'll buy, and I have something I need to pass to you.
It's about the Convention next month.
Can you do about 3.30pm, at the coffeeshop on campus? I'll be in the area for another meeting and it's on the way. Shouldn't take too much of your time.
[ despite what his recent appearances on the network might imply, noah gabranth is not an idiot, and once he'd dug through most of the replies, it hadn't taken him long at all to figure out just who penelope was posting on retrospec about.
he is, however, incredibly ill-equipped when it comes to personal conversations. so he'd put this off for days, trying to think of how exactly he ought to bring it up, until finally he realized that putting it off any longer would only make things worse. so. here goes. ]
Mind if we have a chat? In private
[ after a long moment of deliberation, he adds: ]
Doesn't have to be in person if that would make you feel safer.
[ and almost immediately regrets it. well. there's no taking it back now. ]
[She would never have said he was an idiot. No matter what network appearances might say to the contrary, he was intelligent. And she had been waiting for this. Her plan had been to give him until July 1st, but if he called sooner then she'd talk.]
I don't mind. I would like to talk, and I'm glad you contacted me first. Thank you.
In person. The Queensman this evening at 8. I will have a table reserved. It's private.
[And public enough that nothing can happen. Plus she can hide Freya and the Tomato there.]
ann's pretty hesitant to do this--she's pretty hesitant to do a lot of things on this bingo card, what's new--but this even more so. she has no idea who she's going to talk to, whether or not they'll just hang up on her or not...but she just has to talk to them, right? so this is fine. this will be...fine...
[There are a lot of potentially awkward places to receive a phone call. In the tub, on the toilet, while you're having some alone time with your significant other, or just busy with an MMO Raid.
Fortunately for Ann, Penelope is done none of that when she gets the phone call. She's just hanging out at home browsing stupid crap on the internet though. It's not a number she recognizes, so let's have fun?]
Mort's Mortuary, you slice 'em, we ice 'em. How can we help you today?
oh, btw, I remembered Freya mentioned once that you had a cat?
I immediately went over to your place, luckily it was barely touched by the monster attacks
poor thing was starving when I finally found him under the bed but I fed him and now he's at my apartment with a brand sparkling new automatic feeder for him and Fang
so don't worry about him! You can pick him up whenever you get back
