QUIET MOUNDS - STEF HEART


You find yourself in a stone room that looks like some sort of medieval dungeon. There are (thankfully), no torture instruments, but there is a man strung up here. One large manacle is around his neck, chaining him stiffly to the door. His hands are free, but each foot is manacled to the matching bottom corner of the doorframe. There is a visible lock on each of the three manacles.

It's Stefen, and there's a knife in his chest. Despite that, he's alive, apparently alert, and doesn't look to be in pain, perhaps due to the lulling, sense-dulling music that seems to be coming from nowhere at all—in fact, if you were in pain before you entered, it's gone here. His wound is bleeding, but only a little, and he smiles his usual bright smile at you.

Behind him, but in front of the closed door he's bound to, you can see three double sets of strings running vertically. Where they meet the floor, they are fastened, and then each runs across the floor to the three doors on the opposite wall, then under them.

There is nothing else in this room.

((OOC: Here's how this will work! Since we're doing individual runs, rather than me putting up individual top levels for areas, just jump the post itself, and I'll run everything for you within your one thread. If you're wanting to do a run with someone else, just stay in the same thread together.))

[waving back, trying not to make too sorry a face, keeping his voice down somewhat]

Hello again.

[nods, tiptoeing over to crouch beside him, whispering back]

Are you alright...?

[personal profile] mindinthegittern 2017-08-05 06:53 am (UTC)(link)
[makes a face]

I guess I can't take you out of something that already happened. Stef, do you know how I can get through that door, there?
mindinthegittern: (002)

[personal profile] mindinthegittern 2017-08-05 06:58 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah. And I mean, I probably can't just—

[quietly creeps over and stands on the platform]

[sigh]

Figured.

What do you know about family, Stef?

[bites his lip.

...he's gonna see if he can slip the bottle out of Berte's hand without waking her.]

[whispering]

Let's see about this, then.

[placing it on the platform]
mindinthegittern: (008)

[personal profile] mindinthegittern 2017-08-05 07:23 am (UTC)(link)
I'll see you again, okay, Stef?

[waving goodbye, and then through the door he goes]
mindinthegittern: (020)

[personal profile] mindinthegittern 2017-08-05 07:35 am (UTC)(link)
[he snaps back without thinking. he's feeling a little frayed okay.]

I don't suppose it weighs about as much as a small child you're about to whisk off without explanation?
mindinthegittern: (004)

[personal profile] mindinthegittern 2017-08-05 07:57 am (UTC)(link)
Can I have that key, then, please?
mindinthegittern: (021)

[personal profile] mindinthegittern 2017-08-05 08:08 am (UTC)(link)
Well, it's a lot better than leaving him here. I recommend explaining to him that "Valdemar" isn't the name of a procurer, though.

Stef...?

[taking a look around for him]
mindinthegittern: (018)

[personal profile] mindinthegittern 2017-08-05 08:10 am (UTC)(link)
[well all right heading back to the previous room, being quiet about it]

Stef...?
