EVERYONE'S TRUTH - BEGINNING

[vivariummods]

Since the second group's first Calhoun Hour, the mouse in question hasn't appeared in the warehouse for longer than 30 minutes at a time. He only arrives during the early mornings to tape a random fruit of the day (apples, oranges, and pears so far) before scurrying off with his wagon. He refuses to provide any sort of medical relief for any of the test subjects, and does nothing more but providing the bare minimum to survive. So, when Day 9 rolls around, three days since that faithful finger breaking/eye blinding experience, it's no different; Calhoun comes in, tapes up some bananas, then promptly leaves afterwards, all without a word. An hour after he leaves, though... The screen in the Greenhouse, up against the wall besides the entrance, finally comes to life for the first time. It flickers on and on, flashing brightly. At first, there's nothing but static. Soon enough, though, it stays a consistent green tint. A blinking cursor hovers at the bottom and stays there for a few seconds, before it begins to type. DO NOT DRAW ATTENTION TO YOURSELVES COME TO THE LOBBY AND GO THROUGH THE NEWLY OPENED DOOR I WILL MEET YOU THERE....... And it ends there...

[She just smiles another one of those adorably sweet smiles.]

Eheheh... It feels like it's been a long time since I got to sit in one of these!

[Priorities, Rio. They're trying to escape.]

Man, these would be great to have races down a hallway or something. We should grab this one and the other chair and totally steal them after we leave.

[ granted, probably not since it'd be a pain to take those, but hey, she can dream ]

[toybombs]

[That gives her a pause.]

...You think we could do that...?

Trying to leap back into tagging!

*Maria had been watching the two of them knock stuff over, but the thought of having chairs wasn't a bad idea.*

Do you see a sign that says we can't? Let's take as much stuff as we can.

Hello friend!

[toybombs]

But... wouldn't it get in the way? It's a little-- [Oops, still spinning. Give her a second to turn again.] --Um. Cumbersome?

Re: Hello friend!

Well, think about it. Having chairs would be useful where we're staying. We can use them to transport things and if someone's hurt, they could use it like a sort of wheel chair. *And throw it at someone if you're angry enough. Maria certainly could if pressed.*

Re: Hello friend!

[toybombs]

[Um...]

But... we're trying to leave, aren't we?

[1st_response_is_anger]

If this will actually work. *Even though she wanted to leave just as badly as anything else, would it be just as easy as they'd been lead to expect?*

[toybombs]

Eh... Y-you mean, even after all this, we might not get out...?

[GREAT, NOW SHE LOOKS LIKE SHE'S ABOUT TO CRY.]

[1st_response_is_anger]

*Aw crap. See, this is why she's not good with kids!* I'm just trying to play devil's advocate! Maybe you're right and we'll get out. I'd still like to take a chair just because.

[toybombs]

[She looks unconvinced... but she does finally nod and get off of the chair.]

If you really think it's a good idea...
