[PRP] SNAFU (fox & jeremiah)

[azuredreams]

Jeremiah was not sure whom it was but he was certain that it was someone he knew - it had never been someone he had not known, not yet - that was in need of assistance. It was still early in the morning, the sun had not quite fully risen, as he teleported to other ashdown and followed the niggling sensation that would not leave him be.

Sooner or later, with that and his own senses, he'd be able to find whomever it was that was in need of help.

This was the strangest morning Fox Blisskiss had in a long time. Everything had been fairly standard up until this moment: Wake up, get dressed for work, spend 15 minutes carrying around a clingy cat while trying to do chores, brush teeth......and that's about where her usual routine had left her before it had gotten a little weird. Namely in that she'd stepped out of her bathroom for 2 seconds...and basically the entire interior of her apartment had melted into something else.

A quick pinch of a cheek (how did that even work, she briefly wondered) confirmed that yes, she was awake. No Bento. No Spica. And her couch had definitely not been covered with mid 50's floral print. At least for a moment, Fox seemed rather calm, nudging things with her feet as she paced the room, continuing to brush her teeth. Once she had an opportunity to rinse her mouth out and set her Toothbrush aside (bye Toothbrush), Fox checked the mark on the inside of her wrist.

"So this isn't the Prison," she said quietly, as if somehow the watercolor mark would talk back to her. "Also I didn't touch you," at least not while following the required commands.

The initial thought of 'What the frick-frack is going on' didn't hit for at least 5 more minutes when she had moved to stand at the window, looking outside into a both familiar, and very different, view. If she'd had a cup of coffee, she would have taken a drink right then. Instead, she put both hands on her hips, sighed, and after a long moment just threw them both up in the air and practically shouted; "WHAT THE ******** class="quote">

It was the shouted 'WHAT THE ********' that caught his attention before he tried another spot in other ashdown. Instead he was looking up towards where he thought it came from.

Then he blinked as he registered just who it was standing at the window. "Fox?" he called out, not quite sure she would hear him but- If not, then it was probably going to be a bit strange for him to just appear right there but he'd cross that bridge when he got to it.

At the moment he was trying to process that Fox was even here.

Jeremiah wasn't the only one trying to process that Fox was there.

Maybe the apocalypse had happened overnight and she was just lucky enough to just...not have died in it. Would she just wander this landscape alone for the rest of her life and this was it. She'd be dead in two weeks and - oh, someone else was alive. Wow, she'd really gone somewhere dark perhaps a bit too immediately and the sound of her name caused her to peer out one of the windows to see if she could spot who it was from.

Mostly, the streets just looked empty.

"Hello?" she called out in turn. Maybe she was already hallucinating. Maybe someone had put something weird in her coff- oh wait, she hadn't eaten breakfast yet. "If I'm in some personal hell, can I just ask that you make sure my cat is taken care of?" Was she talking to the ruler of purgatory? Rubbing the mark on her wrist, she scowled at it further. "I didn't ask for this, you little s**t." Was Spica here? Could she interrogate her living chunk of magic?
