[ Sometimes this sort of thing just happens. Yeah. She gets it. ]
Yeah, it feels more weird to me than anything. But also kind of "oh, of course it'd be like this", because the first time I get to go outside again, it's because we've been kidnapped or become unwilling parts of an experiment or a Distortion and I can't trust any part of it anyway. If they wanted a Librarian who'd be a little more excited about all of this, they picked the wrong ones.
[ it's just gebura's luck as a citydweller, as a respected fixer. out of the pan and into the frying pan, as they say - even if said frying pain is set on the lowest setting possible since shit hasn't hit the fan yet. still! ]
I doubt the others would've liked it here. Angela, especially. Sure it's peaceful, but... It's a different kind of peaceful. The kind that raises hairs on the back of your neck even when you think there's nothing there. [ his shoulders slump with a sigh. ] Would you have wanted this kind of peace compared to the things we've seen in the City?
[ A tad flatly, her gaze roaming the view that lays stretched out before them. ]
Chesed would have at least been better at hiding how he felt about being here in a place like this, but this kind of atmosphere just makes me feel stretched in my skin.
[ he hums in agreement. there's just nothing calming here, despite their efforts in making sure no one's stalking them in the shadows. not like it doesn't happen in their city, but at least the chaos and hyperviolence are good enough distractions to fend off the feeling of paranoia.
he finishes his drink, tries tossing it at the nearest bin and succeeds. ]
The bowling alley seems like a stupid afterthought now, like they're assuring us that things can be fun here~ What a load of bull.
