**5** [Video/Commentlog] Open to ~anyone~

[bffpoltergeist]

[The last thing Liz had expected when appearing in the darkened room with Sollux, was to find herself suddenly back in the middle of the walkway leading from the barracks.

She squints at the sun from her position seated on the ground, eyes very much unaccustomed to the now bright light.]

Sollux! Sollux, we're, like, out again!

[She turns around to look at the troll, smile bright and happy... only to find the troll is no longer at her side.]

Sollux?? SOLLUX??!!

[Smile vanishing altogether, she pushes to her feet, stumbling as she regains a sense of self after six days in an almost entirely blackened room. The troll is not with her, however, and nowhere in the remote surrounding area that she can see.

Horror begins to creep in. If Sollux isn't with her, where was he?? She fumbles with her journal, thankfully still on her person. In her rush to post she's not broadcasting in her typical audio-only format, so it'll be up to the viewer if they can see her or not.]

Hello?? Hello, is, like, anyone there?? Sollux?? Has anyone seen Sollux??!!

[Then, Keep, you'll be treated to a shriek as a bag lands with a thump in front of Liz, scaring the hell out of her. She is just going to stand there staring at it, muffling furbish coming from the bag as the fall wakes her furby.]

What's going on??

[Had Sollux died? Had she died?? Confusion and horror, Liz has it.

Please, feel free to come across the alarmed poltergeist or respond by journal. <3 ]

[Audio, maybe 5-10 minutes after she posts.]

Liz?! Oh, cod, I thought you were still down there. What the fuck happened? I was suddenly outside again.
Its so fucking bright.

[bffpoltergeist]

[Video] For all time and roger that!

Sollux!!

[Relief, Liz has it and it's waaaaaaaaaaay intense. She sags and actually flops back onto the snow covered ground, paying it absolutely no mind as it sinks in and begins making her clothes wet.]

Oh god... like, I feel like I'm going to puke.

[Could she even puke anymore? Who knew!! She really didn't want to find out, however. She rests her forehead against her knees, closing her eyes against the bright ass sun overhead.]

I don't know. We were, like, just inside and now.. like.. [And a rush of breath that could very well be Liz barely holding herself together, but then she's speaking again.] I, like, thought you were, like, still down there or...

[Nope, not gonna say it. Just going to put on her big girl panties and breathe a bit.]

[thii2ii22tupiid]

...I thought you were, too. I wonder if everybody else got out?

Fuck, this place is so fucking confusing, we better not go right back in there, that fucking lord better explain himself.

[bffpoltergeist]

[A shudder moves down Liz's spine at the thought.]

Oh, god, like... no. I cannot do that again.

[Could they even do that? Yeah, probably. Nope. Not dwelling.]

Um, I dunno.. I'm, like, out in the courtyard right now... No one's answered so far, but you.. Ummm.. hopefully.

[thii2ii22tupiid]

...I guess we'll find out.

[bffpoltergeist]

[Liz chews on her lower lip, nodding to herself as much as to Sollux's reply.]

Yeah... good luck. Just, like, let me know if you need any help finding anyone, okay?

[thii2ii22tupiid]

Uh, yeah, sure.

...you too.

[bffpoltergeist]

[There isn't a beat. She'd seen posts from Derek and Chloe and had affirmed Sollux was fine as he could be, but...]

Ezra... if you, like, find or talk to Ezra, please let me know.

[Her stomach tightened at the thought of anything having happened to the nixie.]

[thii2ii22tupiid]

Ezra?

*Sollux isn't sure if he knew that name or not.*

Yeah, sure, I'll let you know.

[bffpoltergeist]

Thanks, Sollux.

[Now she was goin to answer Derek, whom obviously survived this mess as well.]

[thii2ii22tupiid]

...yeah.

[sociopathicwolf]

[Audio]

[Hi, Liz, have a very relieved werewolf. Not that he sounds all that relieved, but the obvious gruff-ness in his tone and short, abrupt response is pretty much just because he really wants to check on her in person.]

Where are you?

[bffpoltergeist]

[OH THANK GOD, ANOTHER FAMILIAR VOICE!!! Derek, you might be relieved, but she's even MORE relieved! She doesn't get butt hurt at the tone or anything, because this is Derek we're talking about and, well, it was expected.]

Ummm, like... [Give her a second, Derek, there's a fucking SOMETHING talking to her from inside the bag in front of her. OHMYGAWD!! D: D: D: ]

Like, between the library and the barracks... Umm, the path is, like, kinda covered in snow, but I don't think you can, like, miss me.

[sociopathicwolf]

[True. Derek without the gruffness would probably be more cause for alarm.

Yeah, he can hear that weird thing talking, too, but for the moment, he's more worried about getting to her.]

Okay.

[He doesn't say he's coming, because, well, it should be obvious that he is.]

[bffpoltergeist]

[Liz knows that tone and she's been with Derek's 'Scooby Gang' long enough to know he's on his way. So, bein the good little poltergeist she is, she'll stay put.

While she's waiting, she nudges the sack near her feet rather dubiously.]

'May Tay do my!!'

[Perplexed and thinking the sound a bit familiar, Liz bends and begins to open the bag.

[sociopathicwolf]

[He's there in not much time at all, considering he was pretty much running the whole way. Although he did slow down to a light jog when he figured he was getting closer, because he figures tearing down the path to meet her probably isn't the best idea.

Derek hears the Furby talking before he sees her, and it's enough to slow him down further as he approaches, confused.]

The hell is that?

[He's looking her over as he asks, though, trying to make sure she's actually all right.]
