if you haven't already looked for that hair in your shit, you better look now and dump it

@doublebluff

[temujackie]

i already told her to do that this morning

[ she was #onit ]

[doped]

good
you too, mel. everyone. no chances

[temujackie]

sure, i'm on it

[ ... but she's not the one who's Into Hair so she's not that worried ]

[doped]

( how to say "what if shauna stashed it in your stuff" without sounding insane )

if you find anything, don't say anything
we'll be better off not knowing. more convincing

[diarists]

i did it! i swept the whole damn house and dumped shit in the fire.
only stuff under my bed are my journals and if anyone reads those i'll lose my shit.
burst into tears or

something.

[doped]

everyone can get fucked if they try to read your fucking journals
assholes

[diarists]

[why is that kinda...]

it's not even the ones from out there
just the ones since i got here
bunch of stuff about your birthday party and living in the woods and shit.
bad dreams.

[doped]

( shauna 😔 princess )

that ren chick will probably try to flip through the end of them
i won't let her

[diarists]

yeah?
thanks. it's
ours, yknow?



it's ours and nobody else's.

[she'd meant that much, about mari, about what happened. it extends beyond; this place, travis and lottie disappearing, the slow recovery of memory. it belongs to them.]

@lottie

[bloodspill]

no hair here. but if anyone is a wolf and reading this, know that we'll look after you.

[doped]

( screaming into hands )

we'll deal with a wolf ourselves. we're definitely not going to send you to the fucking cage

[bloodspill]

they're an important part of the wilderness, even here. it's just a different kind of choosing.

did you check your own possessions, nat?

[doped]

lottie. fuck off.

yeah, i did. because

( a little wait. then, )

it hasn't come up yet but
the fire. coming here.
it's all my fault

[bloodspill]

you first, nat. :)

( Someone is finally waking up properly. )

worried they'll find evidence of that? i can see why. we'll help you if you need a hand. knowing you, must have had a good reason.

[doped]

they already know i did that. just
no one's brought it up yet

( natalie will, of course, not fight them on that front. )

[bloodspill]

why would they bring it up?
the ones who want to leave this place will think it was a good attempt.
the ones who want to stay here will be happy it didn't work.

unless you want to be kicked for it, then we can ask the others.

@yellowjackie

[katharma]

Fuck that. They’re not gonna get away with it if they do.

And it WORKED, anyway.

[transponders]

Thanks for joining us.

I have a project I need to finish before breakfast, but I'll see you girls at the trials.
