Not-Allison meets Artemis

The pleasant warmth of summer was slowly
vanishing. Cold winds were beginning to ebb at the borders of the Society, but
the cloudy skies cast little more than chilling breezes upon the building. It
wasn't an overly unpleasant day, merely drab, plain.
In this season, a person might gaze out of
their window longingly, and to the one who had observed, it was easy to notice
a regular visitor that never made it past the doors. He'd been coming and
leaving for a few days by now, and the routine was strange, if nothing else:
the man would go as far as the doorsteps, but as soon as he would bring his
hand to knock upon the doors, his confidence - and his fixed smile - would
vanish. Hastily, he would turn on his heels and make his way back down the
streets. He'd be back the next day. He always was.
And he was here now; he stared up at the
imposing building with a hopeful smile, stray curls drifting in and out of his
view. Slowly, he stepped forth, a beat passing before he gingerly applies a
knock against the door.
Hyde
without a Jekyll: *The girl looked out the
window and saw the familiar man. She sighed, closed the curtains, shutting the
world out and returned to her bed.*
(sorry! :( NA doesn't want to play right now and she's being moody! Ugh! On the
flip side I can't wait to see Arty and all of his interactions! :D ...You know
what?! Darn-it Girl you are getting up and interacting with the world! You've
been mopey and quiet for weeks move!)
*A bird comes and begins pecking and chirping at the window. The girl turns
over trying to drown out the sound. It doesn't work. She stands up and thrust
open the windows scaring the bird off.* JUST LEAVE ME ALONE WILL YOU!! *She
screams at the bird flying off.*
(evil narrator snickering)
Decipherer:  Artemis
lets out a small yelp, jumping slightly and looking frantically towards her
window. "Oh, I'm so sorry, miss!"
Hyde
without a Jekyll:  *She
looks down at Artemis.* Not you! The d@mn bird!
Decipherer:  He
visibly cringes, flashing a small frown. "Oh, uh, sorry."
Artemis adds after a moment's pause, "Um, miss, can you help me with
something?"
Hyde
without a Jekyll:  Help...lot
of good me "helping" has done recently...*She mutters under her
breath. She sighs and shouts down at the stranger.* Sure! What do you need!
Decipherer:  He smiles
hopefully and leans his head back with a yell of, "Do you know if a Mister
Elias Castellanos lives here?"
He adds slowly, "... or Doctor, perhaps?"
Hyde
without a Jekyll:  ...Elias...*She
muttered under her breath. Things the two were far from peachy but they were
slowly making their way back from hostile territory.*
What do you want with him?! *She spits back at Arty.*
Decipherer:  He
sputters out, "I'm sorry, he's my brother. It's really okay if you
don't!"
Hyde
without a Jekyll:  *The
girl mutters under her breath and slams the window shut and closes the shade.
After a few minutes the door swings open with the girl standing in the arch
way, an annoyed look on her face.*
Decipherer:  He
whips around to face her with a wide grin. "Hello there, miss!"
Hyde
without a Jekyll:  *The
girl looked tired, like she hadn't slept in days...or maybe she had slept for
days and was exhausted from it.* So Elias is your brother?
Decipherer:  He
nods eagerly. "Yep! And you are, miss?"
Hyde
without a Jekyll:  *She
glares at him.* ...It...It doesn't matter. Follow me if you want to see your
brother. *She stepped back inside allowing for Arty room to enter.*
Decipherer:  His
grin softens to a small smile, and he nods with a soft, "Thank you"
as he steps past.
Hyde
without a Jekyll:  *She
nods and begins to walk down the hall towards the infirmary.*
Decipherer:  Artemis
follows after with a hopeful glimmer in his eyes.
Hyde
without a Jekyll:  *They
walk to the infirmary and knock at the door.*
