......... Annie?

[polter]

Mitchell!

[ with a grateful exhale, Annie quickly rushes up to Mitchell's side, her hands worrying the hem of her jumper ]

Thank goodness; I was starting to worry that I'd wound up alone in this strange city. Do you have any idea where we are?

[deathsmilesfirst]

[stares at her for a long moment before grabbing her for a hug]

Jesus. Not a fucking clue, you haven't seen George then? Nina?

[polter]

[ it's the hug that relaxes her, a deep exhale passing her lips before she grabs back on. for a while, she'd thought she'd gone mental. imagined everything. finally cracked under the pressure and just... stepped out of reality. now she's only left with countless questions she can't even begin to answer. ]

N-no, I'm afraid I haven't... well, I haven't even tried, most people around here can't seem to see me. Still don't miss the way that felt.

[deathsmilesfirst]

I'm not so sure that's a bad thing, at least while we try to figure out what's been done to us.

[polter]

Yeah, how about you try going a few days being invisible to everyone and see if it's a bad thing. I can act normal, Mitchell. I'm not going to be a danger to us figuring this out if people can see me walking about.

[ a small sigh ]

How'd it go, anyway? You left the house in kind of a hurry.

[deathsmilesfirst]

[raises his hands up in surrender]

Hold on, I mean because we don't know who we're dealing with here. If you can't be seen, nobody can try to hurt you.

I do that fairly often, Annie, you'll have to be more specific.

[polter]

'Cept the people who'd be most likely to hurt me would see me regardless, I guess.

[ sigh. debate not helping, annie thinks, so she pats mitchell's shoulder. ]

I mean most recently! You know, when you kind of dismissed the whole 'Nina's back!' announcement? You were kind of cold to George, Mitchell.

[deathsmilesfirst]

Over my... even... deader... body.

[lowers his eyes]

Right. Do you really think now's the time for a lecture on how huggable I am with George? Honestly.

[rubs his hands over his face, shaking his head]

I'm sorry, Annie. It was a rough day. Very much like the one I'm having now.

[polter]

Well, it could use addressing! Actually, you've been a bit distant and distracted with me as well. I only want to figure out what's going on with you, Mitchell, and if I should be worried.

And yeah, maybe showing up in a weird city is kind of rough, but I'm here to work with you, you know. [ she reaches up, brushing some of his hair out of his face. ]

[deathsmilesfirst]

Everything's fine. You don't need to worry about anything but us getting out of here.

I know you are, I know. [his shoulders lose their tension at her touch] We've been in worse messes than this, after all, haven't we?
