20} didn't hear the confession...walking through the procession...

[SUNDAY SPAM]

[...something isn't right.

The whole day is off, and Allison can't...function properly. In the dining hall, she gets her usual blood bag, but she finds herself skipping the apples she usually grabs along with it. The food on the line smells good, the savory aromas drawing her attention...

Before she knows what she's doing, she's grabbed a couple of croissants as well, and not unlike her first day, she takes her food on deck to eat. The blood, and the croissants, do wonders for her mood.

And that's the most difficult part of the day: her mood. As she slinks through the corridors as she trails her friends through the ship...as she checks on Isaac and Tig, she's having a harder and harder time setting her feelings aside.

Something isn't right. All day, something is wrong, and she can't...quite...put her finger on it...]


[MONDAY SPAM]

[Allison is gone.

She hasn't left the ship, but there's no sign of her anywhere. She doesn't show up for meals in the dining hall, she doesn't stalk a soul, she's completely absent, a non-presence on the ship.

Because Allison is sitting in her cabin, in the dark, on the floor in the corner of her bedroom. The stakes gifted to her by Jerry's mirror counterpart are clutched to her chest, and she's armed with every single weapon she can comfortably stash on her person: her ring daggers, her father's gun, every folding knife she can possibly conceal, her quiver propped up beside her, and her recurve bow laying beside her on the floor.

She's not afraid of an attack: the weapons are her. They keep her rooted in the present, they remind her of who she is, how she thinks, what she feels.

She doesn't eat, but her stomach growls. She doesn't go for water, but her throat burns with thirst that blood won't slake.

Eventually, she will have to leave and seek out nourishment. Eventually, she will have to face the rest of the ship. Eventually, Allison will have to face the reality of truly being an omega, because this is bigger than fighting with Lydia.

She remembers everything she did, everyone she hurt...those she killed and nearly killed.

She knows that now, after all that...she is truly, completely alone.

And she will have to leave her cabin to face that eventually...she just can't bring herself to do it just yet.]

[He offers out the square plastic storage container. Oxtail stew, rich with broth, vegetables half-stewed to nothing. Reheated a day later, but he prefers it that way himself.]

Heard you had a rough week.

[He pulls a wrapped plastic spoon out of a cargo pocket, passes that over too.]

Having your biology hijacked, it sucks. Having your brain hijacked... Is worse.

[He strolls in and makes himself at home like a particularly confident stray cat-- sizes up the available surfaces, finds one to lounge against, does so as if it was put there just for him.]

Same guy both times?

Guy named Rhade-- warrior-poet type, he'd been an inmate in the kitchen before I showed up. Gave me my first kitchen job. And I picked up some techniques and recipes from the first guy named Lecter we had here. Sans cannibalism-- he had his weird cravings but if he wasn't indulging himself he could really turn out a meal. Learned to bake from a necromancer named Ned. You pick things up, here, if you're looking to.

[He's letting her change the subject-- he'll let her steer back to where it's hurting in her own time. He's pretty sure if he pushes she'll just curl tighter around her wounds.]

Invitation to use the kitchen's still open. I got a savory crepe recipe I can swap you with.
