EIGHT + Action/Voice
Dec. 12th, 2013 12:05 am[Action - Wednesday Night]
[It's been a few days since Elizabeth was kidnapped by the Malnosso, but like most subjects Elizabeth returns looking more or less whole and unruffled.]
[She comes back looking a little different, too.]
[The first and most apparent thing is her clothing. Whereas Elizabeth used to do her errands in a long, flared skirt and modestly-fit blouse, there's a whole lot more va-va-voom to her now. She's wearing makeup, heels, and someone has very clearly discovered the wonders of the brassiere.]
[But to those who know her, the change is more drastic in her eyes and expression. As she walks through the dark trees and village, her eyes stay straight ahead and fiercely focused. Her expression is cold, closed off, business-like instead of her usual open smile. And she moves with purpose instead of a curious and slow wander, and only casts her eyes around to double check that she's going the right way. There's no confusion or hesitation, she knows exactly where she is.]
[Action - Locked to Infinite Crew]
[Eventually, she makes it through the village and arrives at her house. At first, she almost moves to knock. Fist hovering, she reminds herself, forcibly, that this is still her house. She walks in and looks around the living room for any sign of Robert or Rosalind. ...or him.]
[Suddenly, Elizabeth feels blind. This must have been what Robert and Rosalind had felt like when they had first arrived in Luceti--completely and utterly blind. If she could just see everything one more time, she would know where he had come from. But she had never known before, and so she doesn't know now. Everything told her that he was Booker DeWitt, but that name belonged to too many for her to know, truly, which one he was.]
Robert, Rosalind-- I'm home!
[Voice - Thursday morning]
I've been going back through my journal, and I realized that my kidnapping was actually filmed. So in case anyone was concerned about me, I'm back in Luceti. Not too worse-for-wear.
Eleanor-- can we talk?
[Action - Thursday]
[During the day, Elizabeth can be seen wandering around Luceti and looking at all the various buildings with some strange sense of nostalgia. She acts almost like an older woman coming back to her hometown, and marveling at how much things have changed. She never looks lost or confused, but reminiscent and sometimes sad. She visits the Library, where she stands in some aisles just running her fingers over the books. Then Good Spirits, where she hovers around the bar waiting for a certain table to be free. And in the meantime, she packs away a few drinks like it's nothing. Then she goes to the Battle Dome, where she navigates to a few of her saved simulations--mainly Paris--and just stands in them for minutes on end. She works a new one, almost casually, of dozens and dozens of lighthouses connected by miles of boardwalk. She walks along them and talks to herself, quietly, as though trying to explain something to air.]
[Action - Friday - Locked to Gai]
[It hadn't surprised Elizabeth to hear that Gai had shipped off to go fight the day after she'd left. It was who he was when she wasn't around, after all. It had probably been an awful shock to him to see the video, too. Her poor darling.]
[She wasn't worried, just anxious for him to return. And strangely well-informed of when that is... When Gai returns to his apartment, not only is the door unlocked, but there's a pair of high heeled shoes on the floor, simply stepped out of and abandoned, and a skirt and blouse tossed in the direction of the coffee table.]
