Gave in and apped him at luceti;; canon is 28 Weeks Later

[fuckthemission]

 ... Wow. Way to fight the good fight and wait on your app a while longer.

Me? Naaah, I'm not complaining. It's only the wait that kills me.

hullo again!

[coal]

When will you know?

Aaaaa, hey :'D

[fuckthemission]

[O-oh. It's you. :|]

Who knows; they never tell me anything. Might as well keep me in a box until I'm denied or accepted.

c: i owe you a tag. sorry! have been busy w/ work & interviews.

[coal]

( not gonna talk about it. she's not usually that raw. and/or on drugs. gd memes. )

Which would you prefer?

No problem! I get that feeling |D

[fuckthemission]

Honestly? I'd prefer a place. Going back home's... not much of an option.

[Sad day. :C]

aksjhflk those keywords.

[coal]

( she can infer what that means. death's no stranger. )

I guess there are worse things they could do to you than graft wings onto your back. Some people would even be jealous. ( now there's a fad she can see sweeping the capitol. the thought still makes her skin crawl, though. )

LOL he's got some special ones alright

[fuckthemission]

Worse things, yeah. And they even give you your food and essentials, free of charge.

...

I think my biggest problem'll be having too much time on my hands. The reason I'd joined the army was because I was a bored kid with something to prove.

hers are just pretentious gobbledygook. V( u _ u )V

[coal]

I'm sure you'll find something to do there. ( solemn. what with the kidnappings and murders. )

Hey man, either/or tends to work! :|b

[fuckthemission]

[Much too solemn, young lady. He's too happy of a guy to let getting burned alive weight him down. Much. But he scratches his nose, thoughtful.]

They don't have a whole lot of snipers. I guess that mean's I might have a gig, if I have to. I'd be lying if I said it wasn't a piece of cake for me, after all these years.

[... solemnly added,]

As long as I'm not shooting innocent civilians instead of the bad guys.

yeah i got others to be a ridiculous dork with so it's all good

[coal]

( sniper you say? well katniss knows a little about sniping, she does. she also knows about shooting innocent civilians. )

You mean those mutts outside the hospital?

[fuckthemission]

Mutts? [He looks unsure, fingers crossed and propped on his knee.] Is that what they call 'em in your area? Those who carry the virus?

[He doesn't consider that they're different worlds, different rules, but sue him; she seemed to at least consider them something. He's venturing on a guess here.]

'Cause not even rabid dogs can top these guys.

[coal]

( her area being the entire continent? y... eahhh... )

Muttations -- creatures engineered by the government for warfare. They've used humans before but they were made in labs, or bred. It wasn't like a disease.

[fuckthemission]

[He shakes his head, quiet and serious.]

Those aren't mutations outside. Those are people. Were like you or me, once upon a time. But the moment you're bitten by another, you turn into a wild bloodthirsty monster--

[A solemn glance at her.]

--not on the outside. Just on the inside. A virus that practically melts your brain and everything you were... It only takes a few seconds once you're bit, scratched, drooled on, but after that? You ain't got a prayer.

[coal]

( sounds enough like the capitol, except they're not foolish enough to mass infect the populace, and if they were responsible for a weapon like that, it'd have some animalistic twist -- razor sharp claws to give the rage a little edge, powerful teeth like a wild dog's. somehow it sounds more frightening without. )

Were you... ( and then she realises maybe asking someone how they died would be the height of insensitivity and looks down. )

1/2

[fuckthemission]

[He finishes the question in his head, and answers quickly enough.]

No. [He shakes his head a little, a stern sharp flick, as he maneuvers his gaze away.] Nah. District 1—[He motions to himself, suddenly realizing something.] My District 1, I mean, it ended up being compromised and they issued a code red. Kill everyone, not just the infected.

[A nod.]

I couldn't do it. So... I left my post with a few civilians. And I became one of them in their eyes.

[fuckthemission]

But I died me. That's the one thing I promised myself. That if I could, I'd die with my own mind and my own will.

That's one of the few things I picked up as a young rookie, a while back; if you can go as yourself, making your own choices, that's the way to punch your ticket.

i swear i'm not stalking you...

[dedicatedbitch]

I don't think they even know what waiting means. It's all impulse decisions and instant gratification with them.

nooo never! /breathes outside window

[fuckthemission]

Well, I'm not gonna lie, I'm big on impulse decisions. [Heh.] But I never say it's the right thing to do.

/fogs it up and draws smiley faces :3

[dedicatedbitch]

Too bad your mun doesn't feel the same way, huh?

:'D

[fuckthemission]

She says she ain't getting any younger. Which is just a load of it, considering she's not even legally old enough to drink.

Talk about pushy.

[dedicatedbitch]

[ That gets a laugh. ] That's almost as bad as the "I'm bored" excuse that my mun uses whenever she decides to do something incredibly stupid.

[fuckthemission]

[Uuuurgh, he slides a hand across his face, exasperated.]

Don't say that; I don't need a reminder of how sadism is a gene in these players. I'm no masochist.

[At least, he hopes not. :^|]

[dedicatedbitch]

And, what? You think I am?

1/2

[fuckthemission]

[...]

[fuckthemission]

I dunno'. Are you?

[dedicatedbitch]

No. And you can wipe that smirk off your face. [ Even if it is oddly charming. ]
