Perhaps it was her paranoia... But multiple times now, Emily felt uneasy in the presence of 'The Knight'. She didn't like new Survivors who looked at her strangely. It made her feel recognized... After all, Emily was one to blend into her surroundings. No one really noticed her unless they had a reason to. And Mr. Sterling certainly kept his eyes on her for a while...or, again, perhaps it was that dreadful paranoia of hers.

Regardless of what it was, the sensation seemed to fade with time. Either that or he stopped watching her. It made her feel a bit more comfortable in her own skin, but she still kept that wariness around 'The Knight'. He seemed like a charming man, but that unsettling feeling inside...she couldn't shake it.

The box of books in her arms was quite heavy for a thin-bodied woman like herself, yet she loathed to bother anyone for help. Emily stepped into the room, well on her way to her clinic, but then that feeling washed over her again. The sensation of feeling watched... It caused her heart to pound, a reaction she knew was foolish and yet couldn't shake. So she turned her head to see who it was, eyes on her. Of course. She swallowed, and she wanted to take a step back as he approached. But her feet remained planted.

" No, " she said before she could stop herself. Emily then realized how unusual that sounded...and she didn't want more suspicions to arise about her. She swallowed. " I am...fine. "

Even now, Frederick's stern expression only shows a hint of trepidation. As he stands there, he looks remarkably composed, hands held behind his back as if nothing were wrong, and only if one were to look closely would they see the way he's a tad too stiff to be normal.

But after a moment, it seems like he even manages to squeeze that tension out by force. Right... there's no reason for him to be so anxious. Anxiety is a feeling that will only hold him back, so he can't let it control him even a little...

"I trust you understand the importance of your role here." he says, though he has no doubt that Richard does. It's more to assure himself that he speaks, and to gauge Richard's response - trust isn't something that comes easily to Frederick in general, and now is no exception to that rule.

"And this plan of yours... how confident are you in it, really? I don't mean to doubt you, but..."

@kniiightt inquired: “go ahead. kill me.” For Ithaqua

⁕| Beautiful Creatures |⁕

Oh, how tempting it was... While the hunt was thrilling, what Ithaqua really craved was to watch the life drain from his victim's eyes. That's what made a real Hunter. However, it was...frowned upon to actually kill Survivors in these matches. They were expected to send the Survivors back to the manor, not to have them bleed out within the matches. But it was so much fun...

And this "Knight" had made him angry. He put up more of a fight than Ithaqua wanted and survived for longer than he'd like. But now all of the others were gone, leaving this one last Survivor to Ithaqua's mercy. And he had none to give.

" Not quite...~ " he said as he peered down at the man below. " I believe I will let you lay here, bleeding out onto the ground... And just before death takes you, I will finally strap you into one of those chairs. Doesn't that sound thrilling~? " He cackled; at least this way he wouldn't get in trouble for 'killing' a Survivor~

@kniiightt inquired: “you still don't get it, do you?” For Ada

⁕| Beautiful Creatures |⁕

What a waste of time this conversation was... It did absolutely no good to dwell on the impossibilities of this manor and its game. But Richard was still relatively new to this manor. Of course he would still be questioning his new reality. But Ada had no patience for it.

" Of course I get it! " she finally snapped at the Knight. " I've been in this manor far longer than you have, and I've already had all of the questions you're asking! But what does it matter? There is no escape from this place, so I've stopped asking useless questions. You are no better than the rest of us, and you will certainly not be the one to figure out an escape. So let it go. "

@kniiightt inquired: "That thing doesn't look like it will help us out!" For Emily

⁕| Resident Evil |⁕

It was ill-advised for multiple Survivors to be decoding at one cipher machine, but with only a few ciphers left until they could escape, it wasn't too much of a sacrifice to work in such close proximity. This match was an easy one; the Hunter didn't seem to be very focused this time around. So, the Survivors were attempting to cipher rush.

Emily had told Richard to expect the Mechanic's robot to help them decode. So when he first mentioned seeing something approach, Emily didn't think too much of it. She just assumed the robot was finally here to help. However, at the Knight's second statement, she glanced back to see what was there.

Oh, for the love of...

" Patroller!! " Emily quickly dashed away from the cipher machine, hoping to avoid getting attacked by the tedious little thing. Of all the skills Hunters had, this one had to be the most annoying...

❛  be careful.  ❜ for Luca!

This  newcomer  certainly  was  something  else.  Asking  him  to  be  careful  in  the  midst  of  a  chasing  game,  how  amusing.  Perhaps  it  was  spoken  with  a  sarcasm  not  so  easily  picked  up  as  adrenaline  rushes  through  his  veins.  Often  a  risk  taker  than  a  cautious  individual,  his  words  are  only  met  with  a  half-smirk  right  back  to  him.

"  Good  luck  out  there,  Richie,  "  he  teases,  before  vaulting  the  door  &  dashing  off  to  the  near  cipher  machine.

❛  this day feels like it's never gonna end.  ❜ for Jose!

A glimpse of slate colored locks caught out of the corner of his eye as he finds the other inviting himself to join him as he tends to his pocket watch. A gentle cloth swiping against cool metal to make it shine time & time again. A flicker of his eye from Richard to his watch, he continues as though it was the usual.

" Then perhaps you should find something to do. " Boredom often a tortuous being, that even he isn't immune to. Amusement paints his lips in a simper, as it was not his responsibility to keep him entertained. " Perhaps let Mr. Frank spin your head on those tales he tells to anyone within earshot. "
