[ lu bixing is running around today like a chicken with its head cut off out of sheer!!! worry!!! so it is probably just a straight up miracle that he doesn't run into ryo. actually, it's more like he manages to skid himself to a stop like three seconds before he walks into him and lifts his hands, immediately. ]

Oh, I'm sorry - Ryo, hello. [ a pause, frowning a little. :< ] Are you okay? After everything yesterday...?
engineers: (a dogs sigh is so hilarious because)

[personal profile] engineers 2023-02-10 11:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Maybe.

[ lu bixing frowns a little further, chewing the inside of his cheek. this sucks. this sucks!! ]

...You are the expert, here, though. Let me riddle you this - is it possible for someone to... for lack of a better term, double die? Would it be possible...?
engineers: (sea world)

[personal profile] engineers 2023-02-11 12:04 am (UTC)(link)
[ hm

hate that. ]


In theory. [ he repeats, a little grimly, reaching up and rubbing a hand over his face. ] Well - I guess this place's version of hell's strange, right? So, maybe it's different...?
engineers: (if she ain't wearing safety goggles)

[ the fact that you die and just go to superhell and that's the game makes me, sisi, lose it ]

Unless there's something worse, I guess. [ Superhell ] Poor Hunter... I just have to wonder why. Why would someone do that to someone else, here, of all places? We're all already dead.

True.

[ but they're already dead. why double die. he doesn't voice that, though, just sighs. ]

No, I guess not. I wonder if we'll be afforded any opportunity to find anything out, at all.
engineers: (back on my bullshit)

[personal profile] engineers 2023-02-11 02:12 pm (UTC)(link)
[ ryo your crow mouth ]

...True. What's the motive for that, though? The court of public opinion, I guess...

No... and I looked, too. You don't think that'll suddenly reappear, do you? I've heard enough talk of things getting damaged and then it resetting as if nothing happened over this week that it's hard to say.

[ fckin murdergames. ] Not to mention, it begs the question: was Hunter awake when the rest of us were asleep? Or.. was he still asleep, and did someone else harm him? Did it happen before we were all forcibly knocked out? You're right - we still don't know even close to enough.
engineers: (if you ever littered)

[personal profile] engineers 2023-02-11 04:11 pm (UTC)(link)
[ he nods... this is troubling and frustrating, to say the least. ]

Right. Either way... maybe we can gather as a group and try and talk through it, if nothing else.
engineers: (next time your boss get mad at you)

[ sh...rug... he lifts his hand in greeting? he's got a bandage on like a good boy. ]

It's fine - it doesn't really hurt. Have you eaten...? How're you feeling?
engineers: (some days it feels like yall ain't)

[personal profile] engineers 2023-02-16 11:45 pm (UTC)(link)
[ a beat ]

... That's one way to treat losing an eye. [ but, then, even the sunniest lu bixing says, tiredly, pinching his nose. ] It was annoying, wasn't it? The whole thing.

...Thank you. I don't think I said so, before.

[ you know

that's fair. he lets out a little laugh, though it's humorless, reaching up to scrub a hand over his face entirely. ]


I think there are a lot of should have's and could have's. I should've figured out that puzzle faster.

[ even if, in his professional scientific opinion, it was a shitty puzzle!!!! NO DATA!!! SUCK IT, DISEMBODIED VOICE!!!! ] And in that same regard, I probably should have realized they were both fake faster, because the whole thing was designed to be unfair. To be honest, I was scared.

[ the first part gets a soft huff of a laugh. ]

...I never have control, in situations like that. [ it's not the first time lin jingheng has been in a near death situation. its not even the tenth time. ] The fact that I got to see it and not just the aftermath is almost a luxury.

[ lin... frustrating. lu bixing makes a quiet noise, though, recognizing. ] ... That decision that you had to make, at the end - that was cruel. I'm glad it turned out the way it did.
