damsel in distress

[bubblegumheart]

WHO: Chrissy + Sophie
WHEN: Immediately following her network post
WHERE: The beaten up trolley car
WHAT: Rescue time!
NOTES\WARNINGS: Nothing specific atm. Will label as things arise.

[When Chrissy had made the decision to spend a couple of hours on the trolley today, she'd had no idea that things were going to go so wrong so fast. Fortunately, the only thing bruised today is her pride. Thanks to some quick thinking, she'd managed to ride out the... accident- crash?- with little fanfare.

Only now, things have calmed down as much as they're likely to, and she's more or less stranded here. With the voice in her head. Who's promised to come and get her. So things could definitely be worse.

As for the question-]

Well, the place I came here from had a skeleton man walking around. That was fairly weird.

[As it turns out, there's only so much to see when one is confined to a brutalized trolley car. Things have calmed down quite a bit, though she's not out of the woods just yet. The island is full of snakes and, while she's not particularly afraid of them, she also doesn't have any desire to deal with them today.]

Yea? I can't decide if that should make me worry or not. Do you have skeletons there too?

[Either way, Sophie shows up soon enough, and Chrissy pokes her head out the door to wave.]

Oh hi! You made it!

'Course I made it. Not gonna let my favorite, ugh, human be eaten by snakes.

(She says this with all the love in the world, for all the bite she has about it. Listen, liking Chrissy is weird, alright, she never ever had a long conversation with a human, let alone having a friendship. She does what she can.

But, okay, she gestures with her head for Chrissy to get out of her hiding spot.)

Okay, here's the plan. If I think you're in danger, I'm moving you around, alright? Don't fight it, because that's more headache for me. Second, if I need to fistfight, I'll probably do a thing that doesn't let me do telepathy, so you can't talk to me in your head and I can't move you around like a doll, so we're gonna have to coordinate orally. Three, it shuts down my emotions, so if I'm meaner, don't take it personally.

All good?

[bubblegumheart]

I appreciate that.

[Being called her favorite human, or being informed that she's not going to let her be eaten by snakes? Yes. Both, probably. The latter more than the former, admittedly, but both are nice.

And if she's being nice, the plan sounds a little overwhelming. But she also trusts Sophie to be able to get the both of them out of here safely, so it is what it is.]

Okay, that sounds pretty crazy but doable. I think we can handle it.

[We being mostly Sophie here, of course.]

All good.

(Yeah, well, it's what she has. Would this be much easier if she bought a person who can fly? Yes. Did she? No. That means she has to move snakes telekinetically, keep an eye on Chrissy, puppeteer her on occasion if needed, and last resort, she'll just princess carry Chrissy in her diamond form and just freaking go.

Sounds good, sounds solid, and she steps out of the car to look around for the least crowded path.)

Pretty shitty about the train, though. Anyone else stuck here that you know of?

[bubblegumheart]

Mmm... I think it was just me in the car that got launched.

[People had been hopping in and out of that car for a good portion of the ride, but she can't say for sure when that trickled to a stop.

Either way, it doesn't matter now. What does matter in this moment is carefully following Sophie out of the car so they can get moving.]
