Week 6
Last week had been pretty brutal, leaving scars on everyone in camp. A murder driven by paranoia-induced visions, committed by and against two of the youngest members of camp, has left everyone reeling. If this is the way murders will go, what's to happen next?
The humidity is dropping off some, but the heat is staying strong. The campers will need to find new ways to beat the heat. A delivery is due this week though, so maybe the camp's deliveryman will have some ice cream?
The WiiU and current games are all here, but there are no new games. Sorry everyone, you're stuck with what you have. Usagi and Boa are now gone from the Mii menu, but that strange faceless Mii is still there, staring as always. His grin seems to have grown though, and the Mii menu music has changed as well. The other Miis seem scared of the grinny Mii, and they are staying far away from him. Now the only selectable Mii is grin-face. How weird.
The counselors have said they need 'more time' to end this, but just how much time do they need? Can the campers really stall long enough for the counselors to finish their plan? And how does that knowledge sit with them, knowing that each delayed week means less campers will make it in the end?

[He starts to speak, looks up at Nine, insistent and immediately deflates.]
don't wanna keep making you sad.
[He's not there enough to understand why Nine pulled away from him the other night but he's not so oblivious as to not notice that Nine has been sad. And that it is, in some way, his fault.]
no subject
[ Leaning over to snag his arm. And just going to pull him over anyways. ]
It wasn't you, Tal. I failed... I failed to keep them safe. They all fell apart and turned on each other.
[ There's also the fucked up execution, but Nine is trying not to think about that. He knows that was the stone's doing... ]
no subject
But... [One hand comes up so he can chew at his cuticles, a habit he had mostly stopped since coming back but picked back up now and then, enough that most of his nail bed had been replaced entirely with stone.]
You deserve better, Nine.
no subject
Hey, only I get to decide what I deserve. [ There's a pause as he rubs the back of his head. ] But I do think you should know more about me before deciding anything. I'm not really good at sharing stuff. The kids kind of made me realize it, yo.
no subject
[Nine kisses his hand and Talcott looks like he might cry for a moment. But he can't, even if he was ready to.]
are you... really sure? [How can you want to be with someone that hurts you, Nine?]
no subject
There's a lot of things he can say, but none of it passes his lips. He just looks at him for a moment or two and then smiles ]
When we get you back, let's go on a proper date. All three of us.
[ Rubbing his thumb in circles over the top of his hand. ]
We should try to enjoy what we have before I have to go back, yo.
no subject
[He thinks about protesting the fact that he hasn't gone anywhere. But then his brain catches up with the second part and...
Here you go Nine, he's finally sitting next to you close enough for a proper cuddle.]
Do you like Ren?
no subject
Not as much as I like you, yo.
[ Which is the truth. ]
We talked today. He told me you were trying to break up.
no subject
[But he is snuggling in even as he says it. He doesn't have the heart to fight that much.]
And that isn't a denial. You do, don't you? That... that's good. That makes me feel better about all of this. If you like each other too.
no subject
[ That has to count for something, right? ]
Hoping to see if you can handle both of us at once?
[ Sorry, but he has to tease. ]
I do like him. I told him I can see why you like him.
no subject
[It's a little self deprecating but also a little funny.]
It'd be nice... to curl up with both of you. If you'd both... like that?
[Zombie brain maxes out at cuddles but Nine you know better.]
no subject
[ Though of course... ZomTal will go with cuddling. ]
Yeah, that would be nice. I can ask him what he thinks.
no subject
[The offer to ask Ren about a three way cuddle session does get a smile and a nod, though.]
no subject
[ Turning his head towards him to press a kiss against his hair. ]
no subject
[A soft smile, a flicker of something sad that Nine probably doesn't see because of that kiss.]
no subject
[ Nine shifts to wrap both of his arms around him. ]
It's why I want to make the most of what we have.
no subject
He leans back against Nine, fingers curling around his arms, snuggling back against him. The most of what they have.]
I wish you could stay here... hold me tonight...
no subject
Not going to kick me out?
maybe if he whines enough Tal will budge
[It's against the rules baby. But oh he wants to stay like this.]
no subject
How about I go back to my bunk after you fall asleep?
no subject
[Sulk pout. He knows you Nine.]
I'm not sleepy yet though... just... stay here for a little while longer, yeah?
no subject
[ Laughing quietly. ]
We can stay here for as long as you want, yo.
no subject
[Soft and needy and he tugs Nine's arms around him and it's a good fifteen minutes or so before he jerks in his arms, blinking sleepily up at Nine.]
You gotta go...mmmm not far though? [Confused combination of nudging him away and holding his hand at the same time.]
no subject
And then Tal's sudden movement has him completely awake again. ]
Huh?
[ Yawning sleepily as he nuzzles against him ]
Not far, huh? [ He can sleep on the floor again...or ]
I can push one of the bunks closer.
no subject
Mmm.. yeah. scoot closer.
[He is half asleep but yeah that works, especially because his curtains will prevent canoodles.]
