After a bunch of failed attempts at drinking the coffee, he'd finally managed to take a decent sized drink out of it. Placing the cup down again, he found that he'd really liked the taste of it, which made almost burning his tongue all those times worth it. Finishing the drink, he reached into his pocket and toke out the amount of money needed to pay. He waited until the waitress had returned with the bill before paying and then leaving. Alex felt pretty good about himself as he left. He'd finally managed to do something other that kill time, and finally tasted coffee! Now he can cross that off his list. Since it was starting to get late, he went back to the dorms and decided to spent what was left of the day there.

Marina's eyes shifted in concentration when he mentioned the name John Quincy. "Oh. He was the one whose body we found yesterday." The loudness of her voice attracted the unwanted attention of the party guests. Ben swore that he could feel their eyes piercing into him and Marina. Lowering her voice slightly, Marina continued. "Elliot, he came to see me yesterday and I sensed something. It brought us to the Astronomy Tower, where we found Olivia passed out next to a dead body. The body of that Quincy fellow."

Ben could feel the hairs on the back of his neck stand up. John Quincy was a dead? Was that why there were police sirens yesterday? And even worse, they had found Olivia there as well. Sure, she seemed unnaturally calm most of the time, but a murderer? There was no way she could have done it. Even if she had, why would she be passed out when the body was found? Ben was pulled out of his thoughts by Marina's voice.

"You should take that email very seriously, Benjamin sweetie." Her voice then took an ominous tone. "Let me see your hand." She set down the tarot cards she had been shuffling. After a second of hesitation, Ben complied, lifting his hand toward her, palm facing upward.

​

"aaaaaand here we are kiddies, best enjoy yourself, the nights still young and if you need anything well don't hesitate to call out for dear old Darrius, I'll come running to help" Darrius said upon entering party and raised his hand in farewell as he walked away

Watching Darrius walk off Casey merely crossed his arms and raised an eyebrow "hmmm weird, never heard of a Darrius Grey in the academy before...must be a new student from Coy or something" Casey said as he turned back to Heidi and grinned "why you looking so nervous for? c'mon its a party! its supposed to be fun! lets go inside!" Casey said happily as he grabbed her hand and pulled her inside "trust me there is nothing to worry about and there is just tell me...I'll kick it's ass" Casey said

xxxxxMarina took Ben's hand in hers and trailed her pointer finger along the lines in his palm. Her finger froze as it reached the heel of his hand. There it was the same. Her brow furrowed and she frowned. "Your lifeline is the same as the rest of us," she noted aloud. "You, Elliot, Casey Heckles, his brother Altair-- from Bellhurst--, and me. They are all the same. Short. They aren't complete. It will continue to shrink as the time on the clock ticks away. Our days truly are limited Benjamin." Her voice was still low as she moved her gaze from his hand to his face.​

​

xxxxx"I suggest you reflect on this information. We are all running out of time. If you meet with that Plume fellow, let me know. I would like to hear his insight." Maybe I should look up what he has on Tumblr as well. She debated the idea briefly before returning Ben's hand to him. "I should be going now. My apologies for cutting the time short." Marina stood quickly, spilling the cards on the floor. She knelled, gathering them into a pile and scooping them up. The psychic stood, pulling on her coat and shoving the cards in her pocket before leaving.​

​

"Good night, Marina," Ben said as she left, having finished picking up the cards. Perhaps I should leave, too... he thought. He turned his gaze around the room, searching for any sign of Cherno. Unfortunately, he had no luck in finding the black-haired boy in the room. He must not have come... He let out a small sigh. He shifted his gaze to the watch on his wrist. It was getting rather late. Giving the room one last glance, he silently exited the room.​

​

When Ben arrived back in his room, he took a seat on his bed. He turned his hand so that the palm faced him. He gazed at the line Marina had traced, the life line. She said his, along with the others who had received the email, was unnaturally short. And that it was growing shorter with every day that passed. Was there really nothing they could do to prevent their deaths? Ben sighed. There would be time for discussion later. For now, he needed to sleep.​

xxxxxxxxxx Daniel returned his offer of a handshake and then the greeting moment was over. She then sighed, " Oh, " she began, " yeah, but sooner or later it's going to cause problems. The classes hardly mix without some clashes after all, each with something to prove. "

She was an interesting person, Harley could tell that much; maybe he could even go far enough to say that she could actually be a female version of himself. Maybe not. Then again, they could be similar in some ways. Harley liked small talk, but only for one reason: it was easier to tell what kind of person he was talking to; how they replied, acted towards certain things. It was a good time for him to gather information. For one: small talk came easy to Daniel - but, she didn't like it much.

Not to mention, she seemed to be waiting for Harley to do something. He didn't know what, but he was sure to keep his guard up just in case she wanted to pull a fast one on him. He then, on cute, really, gave a laugh about her 'Bell' comment; that had been a bit of a silly thing about their previous school, them being the 'Bells', ridiculous. " That, you would be right about. I think it'll be a riot hanging out with all of these kids, though. They seem so . . . uppity and easy to play with. "

He glanced ta his watch; seemed that quite a bit of time had passed and it was rather late, " It was nice meeting you, Daniel. " he began to say to her, turning on his heel, " We'll have to talk some other time. " He put his hand in his pocket and started walking off, yawing and waving back as he did. Daniel . . . Interesting name, for a girl.

[Tumblr ❀ OOTD ❀OOC: Been busy this week, but should be able to post more often soon.]​

Aileen saw familiar faces, but decided not to go up to them. Instead she took a drink and stood in the corner of the room. They looked like they were having fun and she only thought she would ruin it with her awkwardness. She wasn't exactly 'friends' with any of them, which would make it even more weird. I shouldn't have come here...

She stood in the corner for awhile longer, and then left the party. There was nothing for her to do there. Still, she was glad that she got out of room for the day. Aileen spent a lot longer at the party than she had thought she had. It was dark outside. She did not get to meet any of the Academy students at the party, but she decided to leave that for an other time, probably when classes started up again. She was in no rush. It wasn't like she needed to make friends or anything. Even if she did, there weren't enough days to spend with them. It would all be a waste of effort.

Because she was alone she walked quickly to her dorm room. It was quieter than usual outside. Perhaps everyone was at the party. Reaching her dorm, she sighed and opened the door. She walked to her room and tired, she just fell back on her bed and fell asleep.

 

Marcus jumped a little in his seat. She spoke to him but he was so absorbed in her game play that he could not even tell she was talking to him until he realised that the game wasn't doing anything. She was at the top of the board. Online. He flushed as he saw he was in the presence of pros. His head turned and he smiled shyly. He had never played this game before. He was not ready for the madness that came with an online level. He at least beat the storyline before attempting anything in a game's online mode. But she was being nice so he gave a small nod to her. She was so good that he found that he wanted to play as well.

"I'm playing blind, haha. So don't laugh too hard, okay?" He said weakly as he took the spare controller. "Does this game have multiplayer?"

 

Allison noticed that it was getting somewhat late and Quintus seemed occupied with Marcus, so she decided to to maybe talk and possibly hang out with them some other time. She looked around and saw lots of other people getting the same idea. I wonder how all of this is going to be cleared away? Is Marcus going to do it all? She was about to make her mind up about staying after and helping the poor guy, but- it had been sort of long day. Forced awkward social interaction tires a person out, and Allison was getting somewhat exhausted. The chase after Harley didn't help. Seeing as Harley was also leaving, she waved goodbye to him and went back to the dorm and did her usual bedtime routine before falling fast asleep on the bed. Some time in the future, they would have a long discussion about things, but for today she let it go on his part. He probably needed a well deserved break from even thinking about his problems, much less share about them with her.

[/url]xxxxxDarrius lead them to a room filled with people. It had to be the party. That was certain. He excused himself as quickly as he came. She shivered slightly as his presence disappeared. "hmmm weird, never heard of a Darrius Grey in the academy before...must be a new student from Coy or something" She concentrated for a minute, trying to recall anyone that looked like that the few times she was at school. None came to mind. Heidi looked back over her shoulder, but he was gone. "why you looking so nervous for? c'mon its a party! its supposed to be fun! lets go inside!" Casey said happily as he grabbed her hand and pulled her inside"trust me there is nothing to worry about and there is just tell me...I'll kick it's ass"

xxxxxWell that was different. He dragged her inside, just like when he dragged her those other times. It was so crowded. Heidi hugged herself tightly, keeping the jacket on. The leather was cool on her bare arms. She chewed on her lip anxiously. There were a lot of people. Too many. Crowds were bad. But it could be so much fun deary. n-no. No fun. They pouted. She couldn't do this. Her fingernails raked at the skin of the jacket. It kept her arms safe, for now. She needed to leave.

xxxxxHeidi's eyes darted around the room. Harley was busy. She couldn't talk to him. Casey finally let go of her. She needed to get out. As soon as he turned away from her, she ran away. Heidi used the lack of attention to break free. To run away. Away. Where? There was no choice but to go back to Altair's room. Would he be back there? She hoped so. He still hadn't called her back. Where was he?

xxxxxxxxxx The boy in front of her seemed embarrassed for some reason, but Kallisti couldn't think of a viable reason. When he nodded, she gave him a small smile, " I'm playing blind, haha. So don't laugh too hard, okay? " he asked her in a slightly meek voice, and her smile turned to a frown. Just because she was alright at playing video games, that did not mean she was going to make fun of him because he might not be.

" Does this game have multiplayer? " he asked, and she looked at the screen - she was on the multiplayer menu, so . . . She sighed, slightly awkward at this. He didn't seem like a bad person, but . . . She bit her bottom lip, looking away from him - his competence was high, she hoped.

Taking another breath, she looked at the screen, " Yes, this is the multiplayer menu. " she told him, giving him the remote after setting up a session for him. She then went on to explain how to earn points and stay from dying, looking at the screen with intentness, " Alright, the match is starting . . . " she told him.

He actually wasn't that bad of a player, and briefly, Kallisti wondered if he had been pulling her peach earlier. Perhaps this really was his first time playing, though; he didn't really utilize hiding spots the way that they could be used to the fullest, " You are not a bad player. " she told him in praise after the third match, " Placing on a high second on your second match. "

She at the PlayStation's clock; it was getting late. She had spent most of the evening playing this game? Almost as if she were home, still . . . " I am Quintus, by the way. " she told him, " You may call me Quin, if you prefer. "

[ LEVEL NINETEEN - BGM19 - STATUS: ASLEEP - UPDATE ]​

If the game had been in his room Anthony could have gone all night, especially since he did not wish to part with it before losing all his lives at least once. However as the hours rolled on it became painfully clear that he'd wind up here alone if he had decided to stay. So once he finished the second castle, using it as a check point if there was going to be a next time the boy stood and said goodbye to the ones he had spoken to that day before leaving.

Today had been a rather decent day until the mention of John's death. Is that why Cherno didn't show? Anthony had a feeling he would find out sometime soon, though had planned on telling him himself. If he could even manage such a thing though. It would have been nice to have some fun before finding out though, but maybe fun afterwards would work better? Since it seemed to have helped him.

Well, it had been enough up until now.

Once back to his room he had just enough time to shower and eat dinner before getting a phone call from aunt Victoria. The older woman spoke as if she was still learning English, finding each word difficult to say.

"A-Anthony dear... It's your mother. She's...my sister she's..."

He did not even allow her to finish before hanging up, moving to hide under the sheets of his bed. No, he hadn't heard that. No nothing bad had happened. In fact he probably was dreaming right now, it was just some horrible nightmare.

Shaking with tears falling down his face he closed his eyes and waited for sleep to overtake him and wash away this grief. And once it was gone morning would come and reveal that it all had just been a terrible thought, one far from the truth.

Or so he had to hope.

​

After agreeing that they should talk again and parting with the boy Daniel returned to the masses. A few more slices of pizza sounded ideal but as she made her way over to the table someone's voice caught her attention.

"Hey, have you seen my wallet?"

Uh-oh.

It wasn't like anyone was really drinking at this party, now that would have been a nice cover. In fact everything inside her told her not to lift people's things unless enough covers were present so the chances of being caught were low. But those impulses couldn't be controlled.

In any case that was the sign to get the hell out and thus she was gone.

When back in her room she realized her room mate had been in and appeared to be sleeping but spared little thought about being quiet when getting ready for bed. However she wasn't very loud, either. Hm...still kind of rude, especially considering how they talked last. So after dumping today's catch into a drawer she already claimed as her own she took out a wallet and grabbed some cash from it before dropping it back in. Perhaps she could use this to treat the girl - Aileen, wasn't it? - tomorrow.
But for now it was time to sleep.

Marcus was too shy to tell her that she misunderstood him when he mentioned multiplayer. He was raised in the wave of games connected to online multiplayer. But he thought by her invitation that she was going to play against him. But he understood that she was telling him that the online players and npcs were the only characters that he could assissinate. The primary function of the games were relatively simple. His kill rate was high but so was his death. He just couldn't figure out how the attackers came from no where. He laughed as he was killed again before she spoke. He didn't know you could kill someone from around a corner like that.

"I'm Marcus. I see the only way to have a one on one game is to play online, I wondered if if you'd play me sometime, you're too good to not play this at home, Quin." Pretty name for a pretty girl. As he waited on her reply, he noticed his party was shrinking now, great, people were so messy. He hoped those complainers from the tech rooms wouldn't huff about helping him clean up like he had them agree too.

xxxxxMarina walked through her bedroom door and dropped all her belongings into a pile on the floor. She stepped out of her heels and dug through a drawer for clean sleepwear. She pulled on a matching outfit and wrapped a black silk robe around her body. Marina had debated paying Dylan a visit, but given the time, it would be a few hours before he arrived home and she was tired now. Benjamin's hand had matched the rest of them.​

​

xxxxxShe thought about the contacts in the recipient bar of the email. Dylan's address was there too. He hated anything internet related, but she made him make stuff anyway. You couldn't get anywhere without an email address, even if you never checked the messages. He didn't necessarily think she was a fake, but he didn't entirely believe her abilities either. That was fine, but she had a feeling his hand would be just the same as the rest of them. Would he believe that? Marina sat on a stool, staring at her reflection in the vanity mirror. She used a wipe to remove the makeup from her face. Maybe tomorrow she would go with a more natural look. Maybe...​

​

xxxxxThe psychic loved to dress eccentrically. It was a common stigma related to followers of divination, but that was what gave her the idea to do it. Just because you were psychic or a medium, didn't automatically mean you dressed crazily. She did it because it was fun. Who doesn't like dressing up, after all?​

​

xxxxxWhen her face was clean, she stood and made her way to the bed, crawling in under the royal blue duvet. Leaving the robe on, she set her phone on the nightstand and rested her head on the pillow. She would visit him tomorrow. She needed to check on him, like the others. Marina closed her eyes, leaving the day behind her.​

xxxxxxxxxx " I'm Marcus. " he began to reply. Marcus . . . What a nice name. " I see the only way to have a one-on-one game is to play online, I wondered if you'd play me some time, you're too good to not play this at home, Quin. " Ah, so Quin it was. He thought that she was good? She did play a lot, but never really thought her skills were superb ( she never checks the official leaderboards ).

Well, he didn't seem like such a bad person, nice, even. He reminded her a little of Tyler, but not by much . . . " I would like that. " she said in return, a small smile on her face. She began to lift her black coat and shrug it on, " Whenever we have the time, we should play together. " Buttons up . . . " It was nice to meet you, Marcus. See you some other time. "

Nearly an hour later, Kallisti found herself in her bed, staring up at the ceiling. Had it really been such a productive day? She didn't know. Time went so fast, she could hardly keep up . . . She was tired.

Not too long later, she fell asleep to the sound of Kal humming.

xxxxxxxxxx He had almost forgotten to say goodbye to Alli - dammit, he should have been paying more attention . . . The night had gone on and Harley hadn't seen Heidi; he wondered if she had decided to change her mind . . . He would have to text her tomorrow, see if she still wanted help.

Harley had seen a few interesting, and new, faces at this little get-together. The people he would be attending school with . . . In his bed, he yawned, but quietly; he didn't want to disturb the sleeping figure that was curled up into him. So she had flirted with him; big deal. In his mind, he shrugged. Her mind was less than stellar, he had figured that out soon enough, but her body was beautiful. She would be gone by the time he woke up - she seemed like that sort of girl.

He fell asleep.

 

Marcus and about five others were left. Though the party was limited he considered it a raging success. Well not really raging but enough to say Mission Complete. Marcus was elated, he drank a soda as he used large garbage bags to clean up the mess they had made. Cans in one. Plates in another, and the pizza boxes in another. It was tiring and it took them an almost two hours but they finished. Marcus had two boys go home before getting the remaining three to help with putting the tables and TVs back along with the chairs and taking the heavy holding bags. The black bags were lugged to the trash and recycling area. Then finally they could all go home. Marcus hurried and yawned along the way. His door flew open at his touch, he was too tired to care. He did take how let it was into effect and gently shut the behind him, mumbling an apology before kicking his shoes off and crawling into his blankets . Sleep took him quickly.

A flower, and then he was gone. They must have been friends, too, judging by his reaction. The outburst had made her start to cry again, and she had wanted so desperately to wrap her arms around the near-stranger and comfort him. It was out of line, though, so she resisted. With one last glance towards the door she forced herself to turn away. Each step she took to guide herself back to her dorm room felt like one upon the tips of daggers. Her soul was heavy, and as she climbed into bed, the sadness and pain seemed to marinate there. The dark energy followed her into sleep, spawning the most vivid nightmares she had ever dreamed.

xxxxxThe pizza had been good, but not very satisfying in the long run. He found himself hungry again in just a few minutes...But he deserved this for freeloading. ...Nah, he didn't really think so, he was just too lazy and comfortable to get out of bed and get something more. The rest of his day had been spent reading adult novels wrapped up in his blankets. He would use these novels for poetry, because he had very little experience of his own. Clearly everything in these novels were accurate. If he wanted to impress the ... older woman here at Brookridge, he was going to have to know a thing or two about pleasing them right? Still, he was not particularly handsome enough just to stun a woman with his looks...That seemed to be a common theme in these novels. Perhaps tomorrow he would spend the day working out? Or maybe he should just make up for his lack of brawn with his artistic abilities.​

​

Night fell and he took a deep breath, flipping Sunsets, Long Walks and a Hard Banging closed, and burying his face into his pillow to sleep. ​

​

Cherno ambled, almost like a dim bear, to his darkened room. Without a second thought, or rather -- without even wanting to let thoughts and ideas process through his very head, he took off his jacket and slumped down on his bed, slowly succumbing to the dreary clouds of a deep sleep. As he closed his eyes, he felt his world collapsing in on him, slowly, slowly, almost unnoticed, but still just there.

 

​

The party went on and Casey seemed to loose Heidi. He tried to find the Darrius guy but even he disappeared. Casey attempted to search for Altair through the crowd but even so the white haired teen was nowhere to be found. With a sigh Casey decided the whole party was a mere waste of time and returned back to his dorm. When he noticed Cherry was asleep in it he silently crept towards his own bed and fell fast asleep on it.

 

[ooc: i know it's late. feel free to still give me a strike (i won't complain), but i didn't feel right not ending my day. stupid sleep. =\]

Heidi managed to make her way back to Altair's room successfully alone. It was late. She was tired. His roommate appeared to already be in bed, so she changed quietly in the bathroom before heading to bed. They were loud in her mind, having quite an opinion on the current situation. Heidi did her best to ignore them, but it was hard. She sent Altair another message once completely hidden under the covers-- asking where he was. Then set the phone down on the nightstand before going to sleep. She closed her eyes, while wondering where he might have gone too. Sleep began to consume her within a matter of minutes after that.
