What? What is it?

[ Help?? You good? ]

[noirges]

[ he shuffles around a little bit, and from his big coat pocket he will pull out.... egg ]

I think this just... moved?

[ help him ]

[boxcar]

You carry that in your pocket?

[ What if it BREAKS, Yves!!!

But also touches his egg. ]

[noirges]

It's pretty indestructible... I tried to crack it open the first few day and it just bounced a little.

[ the egg sits there in yves' palm...

and then



twitches again ]

See?!

[boxcar]

It did.

It's... not going to hatch now, is it?

[noirges]

I... hope not? Should I stop keeping it in my pocket if it's going to hatch?

Where's your egg, Marcoh?

[ they have a murder to solve but he's been distracted momentarily ]

[boxcar]

I keep it in my room. I used to keep it with Shud but I guessed I should just keep it safer in the closet...

[noirges]

Okay... Um. Tell me later if it's... moving?

[boxcar]

You can look.

[ Yves your ocean shower. ]

[noirges]

[ he's truly probably so crusty but he's not noticing it for now

nods ]

If you're okay with it.

[ but lead the way, marcoh!! ]

[boxcar]

You can.

[ Come see his and Lucas's room... there's a nice terrarium with a frog in it. His side also has a fucking king sized bed that got foisted on him. He's gonna go to his closet and retrieve Egg, which just

since it's the same colour as his halo it's just an ominous dark splotch of near-black reds and the like. That's great. He holds it... it doesn't look so ostrich-sized in his hands. ]

[noirges]

[ despite everything, yves waves hello to frog :) ] Pardon the intrusion, Monsieur. [ a beat ] Mademoiselle?

[ what gender is frog

but then he'll just... lightly touch egg ]

[boxcar]

His name is Shud.

[ Helpfully. The frog sticks a hand on the glass like he heard.

...

It also does a slight wriggle. ]

[noirges]

Monsieur Shud.

[ a nod to the little frog - and then a little jump from yves when the egg does a lil wriggle omg ]

Oh! Look at that, Marcoh... Your soul, too.

[boxcar]

My soul...

[ It's clearly a wack ass concept to him even if he's heard it already. Me soul's an egg? A red void egg. ]

What does my soul feeling like it's going to hatch...... mean?

[ What come out? ]

[noirges]

They said the egg is an indicator of our progress... so maybe it means you're making good steps toward your... redemption?

[ he has no clue what marcoh could need to redeem himself for. he's such a good guy but ]

We can ask the angels when we see them again... along with everything else.

[boxcar]

[ Considering everything... ]

I'll try to remember to ask.

[ Other questions are more pressing right now to him, he feels. ]

[noirges]

I'll try too.

[ there's a lot to talk about. he runs a hand through his stupid ocean salty hair ]

We'll figure it out, one way or another.

[boxcar]

... Always, more questions...

[ He asks a few and then a million more come up all the time. He looks at Yves though and his crunchy hair. ]

... You smell like the sea. You should get that shower. People will be gone now.

[noirges]

Ah... you're right. I'll get out of your hair - just... one more thing?

[ and he'll gesture for marcoh to come down a lil closer... you are so tall dude ]

[boxcar]

[ Truly had to set a height that was too huge mclarge to live. ]

What is it?

[ Leans down as requested. ]

[noirges]

[ reaches up to give him a hug... he's not as damp anymore so he doesn't feel that bad about it. this isn't even affection week this is just yves ]

I'm glad you're okay. Last night was tough, right?

[ he was so tense and pacing... and he only settled down toward the end... only to have someone DEAD ]

[boxcar]

[ Oh... he puts a hand around Yves's upper back. Hug accepted. ]

I'm... not a fan of small, closed spaces. That's all.

[ His distress is not nearly as bad as CHARLIE DYING. ]

[noirges]

[ if yves could figure out a way to comfort charlie he'd do that too ]

Makes sense. [ patpats marcoh's back... ] I just wanted to make sure that at least in that one way, you're feeling better.

[ even if the rest of everything is shit right now, at least they're not trapped ]

[boxcar]

Yes. I'm alright.

[ At least in the ballpark Yves is asking about. ]

We will figure this out.
