at least robin isn't making too much of a fuss as she plucks leeches off of her and flicks them back into the swamp. she's putting her best pr face on. ]
bursts into tears, quick hand over the anime tiktok filter
[Camille is just now hauling ass out of the water, box of personal effects in tow and face twisted in displeasure. Many leeches, some stuck to her clothes but more than a few that snuck under the hem and suctioned to her shins. Fuck.
She drops the box as she makes it to shore, hands to her hips and catching her breath with her eyes skyward. What the hell is she supposed to do?]
[Wow a total reprieve from revelatory body writing! Nice!!
Camille is celebrating this with a nice lunch at the refectory, chowing down while her body is rated G for all ages. She's just sitting down with her tasteless beige slop when the door opens and a familiar face walks in.]
Camille keeps her approach quiet. She's almost loathe to step closer, like hunters happening upon curled up fawns. It's too pretty to disturb, and Robin had seemed disturbed at the trial. Less audibly than most, but there was a tragic tinge to her expression that hooked into Camille. Drew her out of hiding to go look for her.
She takes a half step to retreat and cracks a branch underfoot.]
[ there is no place that hasn't been touched by murder anymore, but robin is out here on the murder beach, looking out at the water or at the sun that will never quite set. ]
Thoroughly fucked. How about you? [She rustles her hair into some degree of order and takes a seat, pulling her sleeves over the palms of her hands.] Though I might not have a right to be.
I was only getting to know them. And now... [She sucks in a breath and shakes her head.] It's happening quick. Five, all at once.
[ robin has her PR face on right now. she is not fine and she doesn't expect to fool anyone into thinking she's fine, but she has to keep going somehow. ]
... There were pews blocking a confessional booth in one of the side rooms.
[ if she starts with business, she can keep it together. ]
[She is managing! Post swamp she has a mostly healed empty eye socket and a sexy bandage over it. She's been posting up in Tomi's old bed in the Haunted House, I think they are adopting her by force.
She may be lying down but she does smile for Robin when she comes. Downbeat but living.]
[Ah, party. Camille's ducked out near the end, sitting out somewhere with her heels off and a cigarette sending curls of smoke high on the air. She's got a drink with her too, and waves to Robin when she spots her.]
You really ripped up the dance floor in there. That part of your usual routine?
Camille approaches the barrier with no small trepidation. When she crosses, she projects a bleary numbness. The liquor helps steady her. It doesn't lift her up. It doesn't erase anything that's come before.
It doesn't make looking at Robin any easier. She'll regard whatever's waiting for her with a hollow despair.]
Camille smiles back, though her wave has an emergency cigarette propped between her fingers. She needs to settle her nerves. They're still rattling around bad.]
Stunned? A touch appalled. I really didn't know what I was expecting, but it sure wasn't going to be that.
