day 9 | jeffrey
[ so sometime during the day when jeff is alone and no one is around to spot him, he's going to get a wad of paper thrown at his head from out of nowhere. if he looks around, there really isn't much to indicate where it came from.
when jeff opens the note, it'll have rhys' handwriting on it. ]
DON'T SPEAK THIS OUT LOUD. JUDY CAN HEAR YOU.
doing a thing. trying to break open the door and get us out.
also it's rhys. this is my handwriting.
LIKELY to work but need people who won't be dicks to help
are you in or out
say something vague and weird and dumb out loud that sounds like agreement if so
BURN THIS PIECE OF PAPER WHEN YOU'RE DONE, JEFF!!!!!

He like.
Opens the note, yelps a little, crumples it up, tries to look smooth.
Opens it again.
Reads it.
Clears his throat.]
Whatever.
[Nailed it.
Wait, Jeff, what does that mean.
(He's going to try to burn it now, wish him luck.)]
no subject
but he'll take that as a yes because again, moron. fucking jeff's stupid bullshit.
later, he'll get another note. ]
WAS THAT A YES????
ASSHOLE
ps are you going to murder me if we meet in person because if you are, i'll murder you first!!
no subject
Ugh!!]
Fine!
[LEAVE HIM ALONE.]
And only if you're lying!! Dick.
[So....
there.]
no subject
Sssshhh.
[ and then jeff is having a notepad and pencil being pushed into his hands as rhys looks around antsy. he doesn't look so good, way too pale and hair in disarray. he's still wearing the blood covered clothes from the trial and the arm alice sliced open is bandaged up entirely. the same goes for under his eye and cheek and the bruises on his throat from being strangled are pretty vivid.
yet, hey, he's still alive.
he lifts his robot hand then, a virtual message displayed holographically for jeff. ]
Who do you consider a friend here? Trustworthy. Write their names down. It's not for murder, I promise.
no subject
oh it's Rhys.
He definitely was kicking and failing a bit though, and then he stares at Rhys, and then at the notepad, and his brow furrows and he fails to follow directions.
But at least he writes instead of speaking.]
What the hell, why are you here? What do you mean it's not for murder?
no subject
smacking him upside the head.
with his flesh hand!!! ]
We're doing something. Not the staff. Me + others. Helping you out because murder is dumb? [ RHYS, YOU KILLED FOUR PEOPLE. ] Anyway, I'm doing stuff and I need to know who's out there to help just in case we need it and you're irrelevant enough to know people who won't get all "wah wah but you MURDERED" and "wah wah but you're STAFF" and "wah wah but I have a ROLE".
no subject
If you kill any of these people just to be a dick I'm going to shoot you with my gun.
[Which he does not have on him because he's a genius. But after a moment of eyeing Rhys suspiciously...he sighs.]
But I guess you could've done that already knowing you so.
Alvin, Shijima, Alice.
no subject
which also means he's throwing jeff a look of disgust. ]
I am NOT killing anyone anymore. That was just what I had to do then. Now, I don't have to do it. Other priorities. ASSHOLE.
Talk to Alvin and get his opinion on the staff. Would he be willing to work with me and Luke? DON'T use specifics, just see if he cares more about the roles/game or the bigger picture.
Same for Shijima. I'd talk to her but I don't think she likes me anymore. Give her a can of peaches, I left one in Apt 2. You can tell her it's my apology.
I think Alice is okay with me but you should still get her opinion anyway.
Can you do that or are you going to fuck it up?
no subject
Don't tell me what to do. Jerk.
I'll talk to Alvin and Alice and Shijima. But I still don't get what you're trying to do here.
Also even if I fuck it up nobody can fuck it up more than you fucked it up so shut up
no subject
We found a way around the five people limit. There's no point in unlocking it if there aren't people willing to work with us to let everyone out. It'll take some time but I know it's not something that only me + the Overseer can handle.
But we can't talk about it out loud because if Judy catches wind of this, she has to start up her security measures. It's not her fault. It's just how she works.
You can understand that, right Jeff?
no subject
Well, that makes sense, he supposes.]
I still don't really know if I can trust you but.
[He hesitates--and then sighs.]
A chance is better than nothing.
I'll talk to them, okay? But I'm not promising anything.
no subject
yes, jeff is getting a hug. enjoy this bear hug from rhys. when he pulls back, he opens his mouth to speak but shakes his head and against the words come from his hand. ]
Thanks. Don't tell them as much as I've told you, can't risk it spreading too widely yet. Keep the notepad but burn the pages you use.
I have to go now but don't die, alright? Give me some time to get away and then go back to whatever you were doing.
no subject
Alice? is immediately flailing, trying to get Rhys off of him and making a startled, muffled noise.
AAAAAA.]
What are you-- what're you doing, get off...!
no subject
Phew.]
Ugh. Whatever. You've got it, okay, just go.
[He'll do his best.]
no subject
I was just hugging you, asshole! Holy shit, you're such a freak.
[ and then jeff gives him the a-okay and there's only one last baffled look before rhys ducks out of the bathroom. there will be only the sound of feet running before jeff is left alone in the bathroom.
thanks buddy!! ]
