micronation: (sitting staring out)

Five; Action

[Sealand woke up in terror after he died, his consciousness slamming into his head before his body fully woke up, leaving him kicking fruitlessly against his blankets. He ran to the bathroom to make sure he wasn't in pieces--because he was sure something had come out of him, or something--and, once he realized he was alive again, burst into tears and refused to leave his room the entire day, ignoring food in favor of clinging to the stuffed bear he'd gotten from home after Valentine's Day, a solid reminder of home he wanted to go back to.

He woke similarly the next two days as well, although from nightmares. He couldn't sleep much at night, so he would sneak down for food then, trying to avoid everyone, terrified that he would run into those statues in the middle of the night. Eventually, listening in on the phone lines, he became aware they'd gone away. He was still afraid to stray far from his room, though.]


A; 769 Bunker Street
[Sealand hasn't really left his room for a couple days--somehow he has been acquiring food, but aside from that he is the quietest he's been since he's arrived. Still, he heard somewhere you have to go to school every three days or get droned, so he's dragging his feet down the steps this morning. He isn't bringing his backpack, he's just bringing himself.]

B; heading to school
[Sealand isn't really watching here he's going, but he's not straying from the sidewalk. This is actually unusual--normally Sealand's jumping cracks, balancing on the edge of the road, and generally running everywhere. But he just doesn't have the energy right now. He jumps every time he thinks he sees something human-shaped out of the corner of his eye, though.]

C; school
[Sealand is not his usual self. He's quiet and has placed himself in the back corners of the room when possible, spending most of his time staring out the window or drawing spirals on paper he had to borrow with pencils he had to borrow since he didn't bring anything at all.]

[Tiffany watches him jump as a drone walks by and frowns...that wasn't a good sign. So she walks over, trying to not be too quiet about it, so she wouldn't scare him.]

Hello Sealand.

[She walks next to him, trying to keep the worry from her face.

This was just like the time he'd come back from Westport....]


You didn't get sent to Westport last week did you?

[Wednesday passes him over a black card. It's handmade with small gravestones drawn on it. Yes she made you a card because you died.]

Are you feeling better now?

Burnt out, wasteland of a town. I heard those statues were sending people there last week.

[Exactly. And slightly more morbid.]

Are you still worried about the angels?

[identity profile] the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com 2011-03-13 08:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes they are.

[And this is in a very firm, I know what I'm talking about voice.]

....What happened Sealand?

[identity profile] is-childofwoe.livejournal.com 2011-03-13 08:13 pm (UTC)(link)
That isn't what I asked.

Are you still worried?

[She notes the desperate look.]

You can tell me if something has happened you know. It might help.

[identity profile] is-childofwoe.livejournal.com 2011-03-13 08:21 pm (UTC)(link)
No. I don't think they will.

[identity profile] is-childofwoe.livejournal.com 2011-03-13 08:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Good.

I met a friend of yours when we were bringing your body inside.

[identity profile] the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com 2011-03-13 08:30 pm (UTC)(link)
....They got inside you.

[She takes a deep breath and kneels down so they're at eye level.]

Sealand, I know this is hard to say.

...Did you die?

She was short with brown hair. I think she said her name was Wy.
