CALHOUN HOUR - CHOICE





It has been two and a half days since the end of the virus takeover. The power, lights, and heating has been turned back on. All the newer areas have been sealed, BP is once again required in certain rooms, and it appears that everything is returning back to normal.

Asides from Calhoun.

Whether characters have chosen to give pieces of Calhoun to Zero, to hold onto them, or to destroy them, it does not matter. There has been no indications as to when he would ever be back, so there has been a robotic mouse void within the warehouse. Zero has refused to leave any information as to the status of rebuilding Calhoun, but they have left this one message for everyone shortly after the power restoration:

"While you may be left alone to your devices, do not trick yourselves into thinking that there is a way out of here, or that you can do as you please. I will always be watching."

It has been two days since Zero has left these parting words before entirely disappearing. When attempting to call for them, everyone will only be responded with silence. It's clear that they're still watching over the facility though, as any kind of rule breaking or suspicious activities would automatically be rewarded with an injection of Soporil β. True to their word, Zero is somehow monitoring the behaviors without saying a single word.

It is not until the morning of Day 72 does everyone hear again from them again, through the speakers throughout the warehouse.

"Good morning, Subjects. Today, you will be partaking in another experiment of mine. It has come to my knowledge that my assistant has been throwing these so-called "Calhoun Hours" every three days to keep everyone stimulated between his rooms. Don't assume that I will do anything similar of the sort. This activity has far more care and thought put into it than this camping nonsense, so let us begin."

"The rules are simple: every test subject will be paired up and placed against each other. The collective will then have to vote for one of the pair. The one with the fewest amount of votes will be subjective to a punishment of my choice. The one with the most amount of votes will continue their dull experimental lives until the next set of events."

"Any petty attempts of rebellion will be met with serious repercussions, so I would suggest that you rethink any sort of plans."

"Now, best of luck, Subjects. We will talk again soon."

"Yeah... at this point, I'd even settle for a black market surgeon. Or at least someone who could take a look at Clive's knees and tell us if he'll be okay." The next set of puzzle rooms... ha. Ha. Heiji cut out a big old pair of angry eyebrows.

Yes good clearly Calhoun would be super pleased by their alterations and not pissed at all. Heiji laughed like it was going out of style. "That's perfect! I can't wait to see his face!"

"I'm really concerned about that, it seems like he can barely move his one knee. If something's broken or dislocated..." Deep, motherhenly sigh. "He's a bit stubborn about it too, can't say I'm surprised though. How do you think he's really doing?"

At least they had stupid heart paw prints. Hershel stifled a laugh as he continued. "He probably won't be very pleased, if Zero doesn't remove them. Let's hope doing so is too much extra effort."

"He's okay enough to get around in that chair, at least. I found him sound asleep in it earlier. I carried him over to a bed, but he's still sleeping. Must be exhausted." Not that he could really blame Clive, of course. No doubt it was hard work, trying to get up and down stairs in a squeaky chair.

"Can't imagine him sittin' there with a seam ripper," said Heiji, reaching over to grab a piece so he could start sewing things on, too. "Anything else you want to stick on him?"

"I hope he can walk by the puzzle room, even if it is poorly. Things could be difficult if he can't." The last thing Clive needed was getting some bullshit trap sprung on him or having to squeaky wheel away from robots.

Hershel considered, hm. "I'm not sure, this is rather lovely." Calhoun was the prettiest princess now. "The eyebrows really bring the look together."

Heiji took Calhoun's head and lifted it up, talking in a squeaky, unflattering imitation of the robot's voice. "I'm Calhoun and I work like a hundred times more than you lazy test subjects! You're all terrible and I'm the best! Pay attention, or I'll inject you with drugs!"

He waved an arm with heart-shaped pawpads angrily while he spoke.

Heiji you shitlord, poor, precious, innocent Calhoun. Hershel, of course, covered his mouth as he laughed because that was pretty spot on. Calhoun was going to be so pissed at them. So pissed.

"You realize once he's back up and running we'll probably get drugged for this." Probably. Likely. "Absolutely worth it though, I must say."

He finished the paw prints on Calhoun's leg and held it up, proud of his ridiculous work.
detectiveofthewest: (Heiji: cheeky)

"You're going to get double drugged, Tie-Wearing Test Subject! Don't think I don't know who's responsible for altering my delicate little paws!" Yeah, there was no turning back. Shitlord life.

"Hey, those look pretty good," said Heiji, peering over at Hershel's stitching. "Better than I could do, anyway. He should really thank us for goin' to all this extra effort."
