[open, network and action]

Trying not to repeat what everyone else has said, but this place is a nightmare. I turn around and the door I just went through disappears. I'm in a hall way, somewhere, and at least this time nothing is going on, but it's still a bit annoying to just walk and walk and get no where. Someone talk to me?

Rikki, if you're hearing this, I hope you're okay. I tried following you through that door but it just wouldn't open.



To anyone who wants to run into him though, he is literally walking down a long hall way, alone, bored, and looking for a door out of here. If you happen to open a door on his hall way, hold it open for him, yeah?

He's in black suit with the jacket off and in his hands. Dark hair is well combed and in place still, but he looks tired. Looks uncomfortable. Ben's been walking for a while. He's looking for Rikki still, or just a open damn door. Hopefully one that doesn't led to pool again. He's been there at least once.

Ben's not dead here. Not a ghost. He's physical and alive and tired. He's not felt tired in ages. Or temperature either, and he was feeling over heated right now. Worn out at least. He's sure this hall way was ramping up the heat too. But he walked, looking back once in a while, or even wandering back and checking floor and ceiling for doors as well as walls. But nothing. It was like it was doing it's best to keep him separated from others.

{ooc: open to [action] or "prose"]. Take your pick!}

I'm getting it, mate. Where are you? I got completely turned around. I found some crackers, though, so there's that?
justaddh2o: (awkward)

[personal profile] justaddh2o 2019-06-20 10:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Different how? Different good or different bad? I dunno how to get back there but I passed an elevator. D'you want to meet there? I think I could find that again...

Don't get too excited. They're stale. They'll do, though.

This is ridiculous. This place is completely ridiculous. Right, keep looking to see if you can find (or hear) an elevator. When I get to it, I'll just go in and have it going up and down. Let me know when you can hear it and I'll come out.

( She'll blast out a wall if she has to. She could burn this whole place down, and if it doesn't let them out soon, she just might. )

...oh, right... I forgot about that.

( Forgot; still didn't entirely believe beyond that she believed that Ben believes it? Does that count? )

Well, when I find you, you can have half the crackers. One less smoothie on the house when we get out of here, but, you know.
justaddh2o: (smug)

[personal profile] justaddh2o 2019-06-21 12:30 am (UTC)(link)
Why would it do that? It's either going to work or it isn't, mate. Drive us crazy maybe, not kill us. If it wanted us dead, it would've already done that, yeah?

I dunno. A handful, at least, judging by what I've seen with what little looking back I've done.

Oh, I'm not giving you any of what I've already mentally rationed for myself, America. I like you, but not that much.

Klaus has spent his time here doing a whole lot more wandering than he should, probably, especially once he and Carol ended up separated. He'd stayed with her for probably half of that first week and then he turned away for a second and a new door popped up between them. But when he opened it, thinking he'd be able to see the woman on the other side, it was just a brick wall. That was days ago and he's been stuck wandering alone since then. So far, at least, no ghosts seem to live here-- despite the incredibly creepy vibe of the house.

He tries yet another door he's come across, expecting nothing but another weird thing to exist in front of him suddenly. Except what he finds on the other side of that door isn't weird at all, it's-- "Ben?!" His eyes widen and he darts from the door down the hallway toward his brother.

It'll be fine, don't be a baby.

( She'll thank you to keep your "I told you so" to yourself later, Ben. )

Probably, but all the same...good to know we're not alone.

Yeah, you would, probably. I'm an acquired taste.

[PRIVATE TO BEN.]
I don't know if this will work, but it's worth a try.

If there are more of us, it makes me wonder what's making the rest of them freaks. We know what's wrong with us, but you know?

Rikki's a name I haven't heard yet. What's yours? I'm Jared. Nightmare is putting it lightly. So far, we have a couple of people at least complaining about being separated and the rooms and halls moving. Sharra and I were attacked by plants. Plants. Fucking nonsense. This place is fucking nonsense.

Ugh, it's hot in here. This is so crap.

( Wait for it, Rik. Just wait for it. )

Are you? A nag?

[ BEN. ]
Yeah, well you can see it, but who knows if everyone else also can. Let's hope not.

Yeah. That's probably a good idea. Or, you know, the worst idea. There's really only one way to find out which, yeah?

[personal profile] insufferablysmart 2019-06-21 01:04 am (UTC)(link)
Hey man. What is with this place and too much water? The sprinklers were on fucking full blast on us and the house locked us in that room. It's like a greenhouse or something, it was just full of plants. ...shit, I've had a door shut in my face and open to a brick wall on the other side, but Sharra and I were on the same side of it, at least...

[(unwittingly) VOICE RESPONSE;]

( Sorry about your ears, anyone who happens to be listening. Rikki isn't typically a screamer, but she's also not typically trapped in a falling elevator.

The sound of panting and a thud, then scrambling, and finally an innocent ding of the elevator before its doors close again can be heard. )


Fucking...hell...

( Audio cuts off. )

[TEXT;]

I hate this place.

I was going to say, I don't believe that for a second.

[BEN.]
I guess, yeah. Assuming any of us can find one another.

( Currently, she's blissfully unaware and thinks that humiliating spike of fear manifesting in probably the girliest scream she's ever managed to emit was a moment of private embarrassment, so...enjoy shattering her dreams. )

What was what? I'm fine.

[BEN.]
Oh, I'm sure we'll be science experiments in a minute if we don't find our way out. Maybe we already are science experiments, actually...

And exactly, that's why getting us all in one room could just as easily be the worst idea as it could be the best one.

Jesus, this place sucks. Like not just "oh this place sucks" but like a special level of hell sucks.

Yeah, well I mean it didn't hit me, but it only barely just missed. I'd like to opt out of future grabby plants, too, if I could. That would be aces.

All I got out of it was blah blah blah Hell House blah blah Eagles lyrics blah blah blah check your pockets. I don't think there was much else to it.

...shoved you back? The fuck?
