\*Alicia had gotten settled into the society, finally accepting what had happened. Now the worry of never seeing her friends or family again set in. She was determined to find out anything she could about moving to a different timeline and how to get back. She figured it wouldn't be too hard to learn in a building full of scientists! She went looking for people she hadn't met yet, figuring out what they did and asking about other people. The young woman appeared optimistic, but she hadn't slept since she got here, and it was starting to show. She also wasn't eating, instead sitting in her room during the time of meals so people wouldn't ask her about her eating.

Today she was obviously tired and hungry, but she still tried to look happy and meet the lodgers.\*

Lizzy was happily skipping down the hall with a apple in her hand when she bumped in to Alicia. "OH! Sorry!" She called to her.

I rarely ever get a good night's sleep. I always jolt awake from the loveliest of nightmares when I try. So I just don't go to sleep at all, until I pass out. It's been two weeks since I passed out the last time!

Alicia, the tea will kick in in about twenty minutes. I suggest you find a suitable place for sleeping before then. Your present exhaustion coupled with the effects will most likely knock you out.

After a few hours browsing the library with a polite disinterest at its contents, Artemis found himself drifting around the halls of the Society in search of something to occupy his free time. He'd visited his mother with Elias only the day before, and he'd feel simply awful to leave while his brother slept. The poor man needed the rest.

He caught sight of the newcomer and a bright smile formed. "Oh, hello there!"

(( Artemis, unlike Elias, knows how to food. ))

He pokes his head in the doorway carefully before entering fully, flashing another smile. "Hmm... Got a preference?"

The wonder in his eyes is almost childlike. "May I watch you work? Cooking, baking too, it's just such a delightful pastime!"

He tilts his head, his grin softening. Though he too was distracted by the baking, there was something inside his mind that offered a small, quiet reminder that his theory had worked, and that he could slip out and she wouldn't notice. Thank God he wasn't listening too close to it.

Artemis grabs a forkful of the cake and takes a bite, before effectively downing what remains on it. "This is amazing!"

He flashes another bright smile, practically devouring his piece and setting the plate and fork down. He giggles at his almost animalistic actions, wiping his mouth with a sleeve. "I'm still with my words, you're real talented!"
