[ well. i rolled that guy has it, so if sipp is fine with that.
either way, when he awakens, owner just immediately goes to get all his stuff ready, not bothering to speak to the others. despite the bad night of sleep, and the hunger, there is so much clarity in what needs to be done. he isn't even sure how he didn't realize this sooner. ]
[ the night before, a thought had crossed his mind. it's not too late to get rid of it, the woman with a boulder-caved face had told him in a gentle whisper. he hadn't understood when she said it, but in all the pain and weariness, he'd considered maybe—maybe she meant the journal.
just a passing thought though, and a foolish one. by morning he has clarity, ignoring his headache and getting his pack with bright resolve. ]
[ guy has the journal for safekeeping now even though he can't read. but if he has to protect them from themselves, so be it. he has it in with his stuff now, after flipping through it to read it, himself ]
[ despite his nightmares and rough night, he regards them all with a small, reassuring smile ]
Are you all ready? Don't push yourselves too hard.
[ I love the direction you’ve all taken with this which is that you’re best friends again. discussing charles and arthur all the way to the end.
guy has the journal and all feel incredible jealousy clawing at the inside of your skull - but maybe it has ceased to matter. You no longer need it for your connection to the Somnovem. It, along with everything else of this mortal world (your possessions, your body, your loved ones) will not be a tether, tying you to the ground like an animal.
There’s a couple of directions available to go: First is back to the Disease Lab you’d discovered yesterday. Apart from that, exiting this area are two doorways, though you didn’t have time to study the map. You don’t know where they lead, but you do feel the tug and draw of a Threshold Crest in either direction. The past or the future, gang. ]
[yep! we're all best friends again. she smiles at guy. she wants that journal back, but she doesn't need it. and she isn't physically strong enough to win the fight that will ensue if she tries to take it from him.
it doesn't matter, anyway. the somnovem want someone intelligent in charge, they want a leader. that isn't guy and it never will be. she just needs to show them that and it's all going to be fine.]
So, what's on the agenda today? Someone might want to take a look at those laboratories. Though I might like to keep moving on ahead.
I believe Sidon had said he wanted to check those out, so perhaps we can split up? We can return here at the end of the day to regroup, if that is fine?

What is your preference?

he nods at the two of them. ]
In that case, Guy and I can go explore together.
[ and they can all regroup later, yay. ]
no subject
[ but he's fine to go with sidon! they are friends :) and sidon seemed to be dealing with something earlier ]
Sounds good to me, Sidon.
