Night 9 - Shijima
[Alice finds herself awake for a portion of the night, just like Judy promised. There's no denying that she's a little surprised by it - somehow, she hadn't expected her to keep her word - but just as she discussed with Shijima, she creeps over to the bed where she's sleeping.
A moment later, the scalpel she took from Rhys flashes through the air before stabbing into her sharply. It's not a fatal wound, but with any luck...]
Hey, wake up!

no subject
not attack.
well, she's awake but...she feels a little drowsy still? ]
So she kept her word...
no subject
[Shijima sort of looks tired, though. And, well, that stab wound's not going to take care of itself... They'd better patch it up. Alice doesn't particularly want to bring Shijima around if she's going to leave behind a trail of blood.]
How are you feeling?
no subject
[ UGH!!!! she'll fumble for the ripped up makeshift bandages she promised to set up in case it didn't work. did alice stab her in the thigh or something she can wrap herself, important questions ]
Did you happen to see what knocks us out, or did you just wake up again...?
no subject
I just woke up. I imagine it's similar to the stuff we saw in the execution chamber, though.
[So that weird gas... Also yeah let's say she got stabbed in the thigh, that's probably for the best.]
...if you're feeling tired, you probably shouldn't come with me.
no subject
[ LIKE A WIMP. ]
How irritating...at least we know she kept her word for you, though.
no subject
[Apparently, that wasn't the case. With a sigh, Alice reaches into her pocket and fishes out a folded-up piece of paper, which she holds out to Shijima.]
Do me a favor, okay? If I'm dead tomorrow morning, take this to Leo and ask him to teach you to read music. And then whatever he says, believe him.
...and if I'm dead tomorrow morning, ask Alfendi who I told him to go after if you want to punish my killer.
no subject
[ like. she doesn't. but. ]
What if both of them are dead, as well? Or if you survive...will you tell me whatever this says in the morning?
no subject
[She glances down at the note, then sighs.]
If Alfendi, Leo, and me turn up dead tomorrow, we're in more trouble than this note will help with. But if I'm still alive, I'll tell you what it says.
no subject
[ still, she reaches out to take the note. she can secret it on her person. ]
...By the way. Did Elizabeth's partner approach you? If not, I should at least warn you about who it is so you don't kill them...
no subject
...sorry. I'll explain tomorrow.
[Then she shakes her head.]
No, but she said that she would tell whoever it is to approach me if something happened. You can tell me if you want to, though.
[But she's not sure how long she should be lingering here - how long she'll have to carry out her task before she gets put back to sleep.]
no subject
[ as in: stay safe. ]
Hm. You're one of the people she said was innocent, so it should be fine. Don't kill Jeff...not that he was a major concern.
[ also, shijima doesn't really care too much even if it isn't, rip, she's on team alice ]
That's all the advice I have to give.
no subject
[Killing him wasn't on her agenda just yet - but if it had been, that would have been enough to keep him alive for now.]
See you tomorrow, I hope. I'll put the trap up again when I come back.
no subject
the doctor and security dude are on their own. ]
I'll see you then.
[ yeah she's. probably dozing back asleep soon. goddamnit. ]
no subject
[And off she goes, after dismantling the trap.]
