day 25 PRE-EVENT

[cuttingwords]

More people from home are in solitary again.

Also do you know how to clean a carpet?

Re: day 25 PRE-EVENT

[chew_toy]

I noticed as well. And I do. What happened to the carpet?

Re: day 25 PRE-EVENT

[cuttingwords]

Nothing happened to our carpet.

We spilled a milkshake in Vincent's toy destroying room.

Re: day 25 PRE-EVENT

[chew_toy]

I can come wash it out, if you like.

Re: day 25 PRE-EVENT

[cuttingwords]

That would be a bad idea.

Re: day 25 PRE-EVENT

[chew_toy]

Why?

Re: day 25 PRE-EVENT

[cuttingwords]

He's in a bad mood and we've been arguing because he's stupid.

Re: day 25 PRE-EVENT

[chew_toy]

You'll have to go to the laundry room for supplies. Shall I write out a list of instructions?

Re: day 25 PRE-EVENT

[cuttingwords]

Yes, thank you. I'm just going to pass it to Vincent anyway. I'm going home.

Have you spoken with Mister Lan or Mister Wei about their findings on the people in solitary?

Re: day 25 PRE-EVENT

[cuttingwords]

I haven't.

Re: day 25 PRE-EVENT

[chew_toy]

I recommend you do. They were able to confirm that the people there are still alive, and took a few pictures.

I'm sorry that they've ended up there.

[There is a long pause here. He starts typing and deletes a few times, before sending the least emotional response he can manage.]

I'm glad they're okay.

Re: day 25 PRE-EVENT

[chew_toy]

As am I.

We can talk in person when you get home. Or I could prepare something for you to eat.

Re: day 25 PRE-EVENT

[cuttingwords]

Food would be nice. Thanks.

Re: day 25 PRE-EVENT

[chew_toy]

You’re welcome. I’ll see you soon, Elliot.

Re: day 25 PRE-EVENT

[cuttingwords]

[thank god for dad, as usual!]

I'm back...

[Elliot comes in, waves to Reim, and then immediately flops face-down on the couch.]

Re: day 25 PRE-EVENT

[chew_toy]

Welcome home. It’ll be ready in just a minute. Shall I prepare tea as well?

Re: day 25 PRE-EVENT

[cuttingwords]

Sure.

[He's just going to be a lump in the meantime.]

Re: day 25 PRE-EVENT

[chew_toy]

Black?

Re: day 25 PRE-EVENT

[cuttingwords]

Uh-huh.

[rolls over slightly, just so he can dangle an arm off the couch]

Hey, Reim. You have siblings, don't you?

Re: day 25 PRE-EVENT

[chew_toy]

[ brief pause, ]

I do.

Re: day 25 PRE-EVENT

[cuttingwords]

Do you get along with them?

Re: day 25 PRE-EVENT

[chew_toy]

Not particularly well, no.

Re: day 25 PRE-EVENT

[cuttingwords]

Okay... Well, what do you do when they're being idiots?
