[Landrobe]

*On one side, Landrobe is arriving at Domino at the Island Monorail station. He gets his bearings together as he steps out.*

Where could he be...

[???]

*but meanwhile, somewhere else in the city, a young boy with long black hair slinks around in the backstreets and alleys, glasses glinting to show some very purple eyes. He rubs his head, groaning.*

Of all the ways to wake up... I trapped those people who had me and I ran off, realized it was the infirmary, panicked and got here... But now I can't remember why I was here in the first place. I should've gone and checked if any notes were around. And I have the worst headache, too... *he pats his side a bit, and then grumbles*

I don't even have my deck or my disk on me. This is the worst.

*he flicks out a phone instead, seemingly from nowhere, brushing the hair out of his line of sight*

What to do, what to do... Do I just bother making those if I want to have any fun...? Do I even want to right now? It'd be better than going back, I guess... *he starts muttering instead.*

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

*... maybe not exactly, but.*

I'm not Lucius. I'm... *he takes a moment to say the name, like he's remembering it* Eidos.

"Eidos."

Someone better call Ripley's because he doesn't fucking believe it.

"Yeah, aight, I'll bite. Why ya look like 'im?"

Do I need to actually say why I look like him?

"...Nah, I guess not. Jus' makin' sure my firs' guess wasn't wildly off target."

He leans up against something, trying to hide his pained face.

"What're ya doin' out in the city?"

*his thumb is moving around on the phone's screen as he holds it, hnm.*

Would you believe I panicked and came here instead? That's the closest to an explanation I would be willing to ever give.

"Nah, that's fair. Ya jus' met me, dun gotta spill out e'rythin'.

... Ya wanna stay out fer a lil' bit longer, kid? I'm willin' ta 'elp."

... Why do you want to help, is the question here, first.

He shrugs.

"I dunno. 'Cause I've decided I'm gonna 'elp 'owever ya'd want me ta? Mostly 'cause I've gotten kinda comfy 'ere an' it dun 'urt 'less I move."

....

Do you need a new sling.

"It'd be nice, yeah."

Fine. I'm only doing this as a favor once, since you're not trying to chase me down anymore.

*he scrolls and clicks something on the phone, seems to input a few things, and then...

Hey, there's a new sling on your arm, Cyril. It's like the old one not only got repaired, but also, you know.

Became an actual sling.*

He blinks. Looks at you.

"Thanks. Modern tech is never gonna cease ta amaze me. Ya gonna try an' 'ead back ta yer dorm tonight, then? Or explore the city?"

I'd have fixed the arm, but I don't feel like standing around for an hour altering the program. *damn, that sounds useful but time consuming.*

I'm wondering if it'd be worth it going back there. I think I might've trapped some staff in transparent boxes for a while.

"...Yeah? I'll 'eal up soon, dun worry." He waves a hand.

"Well, uh. They're prolly used ta it, at this point. Prolly jus' mild inconvenience at this point. If they ain't dead, yer gonna be good ta go."

Hnmg, they shouldn't be. I don't know what the range is for wearing off. I never bothered to check.

"'opefully yer fine. Prolly not good fer ya guys ta 'ave killed some people."

He shrugs.

"So, uh. If you're 'eadin' out I'll let Landrobe know yer fine or somethin' an' 'e can go an' lay down."

You think he's actually out looking for me? *... he looks at his phone, clicking through things.*

What day is it, anyway?

"Said 'e was. Got, uh. Distracted by a little bit o' a brawl.

...Sunday? I think?"

Sunday. *he pauses and thinks*

Oh. Right. That's why he's bothering to push himself. It's Sunday. *What the heck's so important about Sunday.*

"... Sunday a big day? Ya all get together an' 'ave dinner an' watch cat videos all day?"

Oh, no, it's--

There he is.

*there's a tired sounding voice coming from the other end of the alleyway.*

He makes the briefest face that he's going to kill the person who's interrupting him. But seems to calm down when it's Landrobe.

"Oy, was jus' 'bout ta text ya buddy. Found 'im."

Yeah, I can see that. Sorry about this.

You didn't need to go looking for me. I would've figured it out eventually.
