[Derek's cranky at the moment, both because of whatever the hell is going on with this thing at night, and because he hadn't been planning on making a post this month. Now he has to start over.]

Did any of you let something out that you shouldn't have? Like maybe an Exustio, or whatever the hell other people call fire demons?

[Yeah, he's blaming the people who went on that stupid revolt thing.]

[Sealed to: Kevas, Liz, Alex, Sollux, Monroe, Zeke]

You getting hit with this crap too?

[Aka check in. Not that Derek's worried or anything.]

[Sealed to Merida]

You're not doing anything stupid, are you?

You have to admit, it's one of the more creative versions of the 'ding dong ditch'.

You alright?

And stupid. It wouldn't be as annoying if it wasn't in the middle of the night. Or if I could smell who was doing this.

[There's a pause.]

You made it out okay.

So you can't smell them either? Good I was worried for a minute I might be turning human again.

[Monroe sighs. Seriously what is this place.]

So far, and I'm planning on staying away from anything that'll change that. Please tell me you're planning on doing the same?

Not yet. But that'll probably happen again, too. That's the third time for me.

[All right, well, one time it'd been some kind of winged human, but he still hadn't had any of his senses.]

Yeah. I'm not the one that went off on some stupid revolt and was gone for two months.

[That's not 'staying away,' Monroe. Except Derek can't admit he was concerned, so he's just going to sulk and be cranky.]

Three times? Dude, how do you stand it here?

[Monroe isn't looking forward to getting stuck that way again. Also enter cranky mode.]

It's not like anyone mentioned if I look around I'd disappear.

[The crankiness level descends.]

Now that I've figured that out I'm not going anywhere.

I don't have much choice.

[Derek's learned to deal with it, by now. And he's pretty sure this is where he's supposed to be.]

Doesn't always happen. Usually only if you go in the tunnels I told you about. But apparently you guys found an entirely new place.

[Have some more return crank. He's still upset at getting left behind, not that he'll ever say that.]

Not any time soon, anyway.

Good point.

[No. Derek should be learning about his own kind and how to deal for it in a safe nurturing environment. Now if only they could find one.]

Yeah, I'm thrilled about finding a new room in this place. Maybe I should move in. Every time I come up for dinner a year passes.

[Sarcasm! Also he's sorry. Or he would be if her knew.]

Not if I have anything to say about it.

Sometimes I make them.

[Look, he's actually joking! Also, yeah, that would be nice. Too bad it doesn't exist.]

Do you really want to live in whatever you found?

[He should be sorry anyway.]

I've been here over a year. It's not like I didn't try.

Really? Well it's about time you showed me.

[He tone is obviously teasing, and you can almost hear the smile in his voice.]

No not really. Though the one that looked like Mars wasn't so bad. If you ignored the Grimm Reaper hanging around.

[Heh. Grimm Reaper. And he will be.]

Over a year? Kid I'm sorry. We'll figure someway out of this alright?

I have a reputation to keep up.

[He's still joking, though he also sounds a bit cranky.]

Mars?

[Really? But then Derek frowns a bit.]

Grimm Reaper - you mean the Headsman? You ran into him?

[And he's just not going to reply to any of that last part. Monroe won't notice that, right?]

In that case I won't tell anyone.

[Yup Mini Monroe. Who just happens to be bigger than him.]

Pretty much. At least it looked like Mars, just will a little more air. And I mean a little.

[Hey, Derek thinks people come back from the dead. Monroe thinking he went to Mars is nothing.]

Well he never gave his name, but that sounds right.

[Derek can't see it but Monroe is raising an eye brow at him.]

We'll get out of here.

Good.

[Crank crank crank. And hey, it's not Derek's fault he got the better wolf genes.]

...huh. Did you see how many moons there were? Was there any plant life? Was it covered with ferric oxide dust? What was the gravity like?

[Has Derek mentioned that he's a bit of a science geek? Because he is.][Damn. Derek was hoping he'd drop it.]

I'm not worried about it all that much.

[Hey! Well Actually Monroe won't argue with that too much.

Monroe chuckles fondly. Man this kid sounds like him right now. But he answers all the questions as best he can without judging the geekieness.]

I didn't notice any moons or plant life. I'm pretty sure there weren't any plants. I don't know if it was ferric oxide but it was pretty dusty. I think there might be some of it still on my sweater, if you want to take a look. And the gravity was off. Lighter, but we weren't floating around.

[What's up Derek?]

Don't tell me you like it here.

[If only because Derek's don't come along with the whole red thing.

Apparently being a surly, cranky wolf on the outside means you secretly have to be kind of dorky about some things. It's a requirement.

Derek listens silently, not bothering to hide his eager expression. It's not like Monroe can see it, anyway. But it probably shows through his voice a bit.]

Really? I - yeah, I'd appreciate that.

[What? Nothing's up. Nothing at all.]

What I like doesn't have anything to do with it.

[That is a very good idea.

It is a requirement. Otherwise they'd just be dicks.

Monroe knows man. He gets that same excited derp sound in his voice too.]

Sure. I'll set it aside so I don't accidentally wash it.

[Monroe sees nothing.]

Alright, then what does it have to deal with?

[And Derek doesn't want to be a dick, not really. Even if it's safer for everyone involved that way.

Good. It's nice of him not to comment on that.]

Thanks. Let me know when it'll be a good time to come get it.

[Derek doesn't want to talk about it. He's going to be evasive.]

We're stuck here, aren't we?

[Monroe understands. Having friends is over rated, except that it really isn't.]

Whenever you want. I don't leave my room much.

[Fine be evasive.]

For now, but that's not going to last forever.

[Exactly. Except Derek still insists that it is.]

Yeah. Me neither.

[Evasive and cranky, that's what he's good at.]

Probably not. But for the foreseeable future.

[There are so happy being alone. Yup. Nick never leave.]

Great. Then come on by when ever. Except from six thirty to seven thirty in the morning. I'm doing Tai Chi with Nick.

[Yeah he is.]

Alright. Just don't give up hope.

[Except Monroe is really good at that, but that doesn't mean Derek should.]

[Completely happy being alone. La la la denial.]

Huh. Tai Chi, really? I've heard that's good for keeping control.

[His dad had mentioned it, he remembers, along with some other similar techniques.]

Sure.

[...yeah, Derek doesn't really ever plan on getting out of here.]

[Denial huh? That's a river right?]

It's been helping. If you want you can join us. Or I can teach you later if you don't want to get up so early.

[Well Derek's dad is smart.

They will get out of here man.]

[A huge river. It's a very comfortable one.

Derek considers that for a long moment. Actually, yeah, he would be interested. But ~~lol no playercest~~ he doesn't want to interrupt Monroe and Nick's time together, so he goes with the second option.]

Later in the day would be okay. Whenever you have time.

[Just ignore the alligators.

Monroe appreciates that.]

Sure thing man. I'll swing by later and we can get started.
