Week 4

[lockdownmods]

[ It's now Week 4 at Fayflower University. With the new week comes another memory, and a new floor to explore. That's nice, after everything, right? Right, of course it is.

However, other things have changed besides the floor access. The wall has always been a point of contention after the fiasco in week one. And then the frog, and now the investigation. However, going within three feet of the wall is oppressive now, in feeling. It feels as though you're being watched-- and targeted for something.

Be careful~]

[He chuckles, and holds his hands up in defeat.]

Will you still patch me up, Detective?

[blackcatintheruemorgue]

Only because I don't want you to bleed to death. I'd rather Waver not die over you.

[Poe just... sighs deeply.]

Seeing as you can't even walk... I'll be right back with a first aid kit.

[No nurse for you. He doesn't want you near Waver.]

[sendintheclown]

I'll wait right here for you!

[Like he has any other option.]

[blackcatintheruemorgue]

Right...

[With an air of resignation, Poe goes off to the Nurses' Office. When he returns, he has an first aid kit with him.]

... I've returned.

[Please tell him the clown is still here.]

[sendintheclown]

[The clown is still here! He waves over at Poe.]

Hello~o Doctor!

[blackcatintheruemorgue]

[Poe just sighs and kneels down to get a better look at the stab wounds. How many are there and are they going to need stitches?]

[sendintheclown]

[There's about four, and whilst Waver isn't the strongest, he sure fucking went for it, so they might just need patching up.

Not one to be comfortable with silence, Gogol breaks it.]

Do you want to know something, Detective?

[blackcatintheruemorgue]

.... I'm listening.

[It'd be less awkward then him stitching up Gogol's wounds in silence. Speaking of which... ]

I'm going to be starting on stitching your wounds now.

[He was expecting this and came prepared. He's going to start stitching up one of the stab wounds.]

[sendintheclown]

[Gogol shifts his head so he can watch as Poe gets at it.]

I lied.

[blackcatintheruemorgue]

... Am I supposed to be surprised about that?

[He's... not surprised. He could see things going either way honestly. He's just going to keep stitching as they talk.]

[sendintheclown]

[He grins a little at the response. Unexpected.]

Don’t you want to know what about?

[blackcatintheruemorgue]

I think I know what you were lying about... but I'll humor you. Go ahead. Explain. I'll be listening.

[He'll just be here stitching you up regardless.]

[sendintheclown]

Well, go on- guess!

[You're being no fun Poe.]

[blackcatintheruemorgue]

[He'd be a little more tolerant if you didn't attack his little brother figure, but you did, and he is still very mad about that.]

..... You weren't going to kill him in the end. Stab him a few times... sure... but not kill him. You're not an imbecile. There'd be nothing to gain from killing him. All you'd be doing is putting your own life at risk.

[sendintheclown]

Who’s to say?

[But, by saying that, he basically confirms it.]

So why did I do it?

[blackcatintheruemorgue]

.........What he said that time still hurt you. So.... you wanted to hurt him back.

[Or at least that's one of several theories he has.]

[sendintheclown]

Got any other ideas?

[blackcatintheruemorgue]

Oh plenty... it could be for your own amusement. It could be to teach him a lesson... Honestly... I could probably go on for a while with my various theories.

[He's got time.]

[sendintheclown]

I’ll be here for a while. Amuse me.

[blackcatintheruemorgue]

..... and here I'd thought you'd quiz me on it.

[It'd take forever to go through all his theories... so perhaps he should try and speak the clown's own language.]

Very well... you want to be amused? Then let me propose this... let's make this an game. I tell you a theory. You tell me if I'm getting closer to the truth or farther from it.

[sendintheclown]

[He’s bleeding out Poe forgive him for not having all his energy.]

Very well, let’s start!

[blackcatintheruemorgue]

Okay...

[He already said this... but it'd be a great starting place for a baseline in this little game.]

Did you do it because of what Waver said at the trial?

[sendintheclown]

[He tilts his head side to side as if in thought for a moment.]

It has something to do with it.

[blackcatintheruemorgue]

Is it because he reminded you how trapped you were here with his words?

[Another thing he said before... but still a good starting point.]

[sendintheclown]

[He tilts his hand in a vague, noncommittal motion.]

In a way.
