Summoned from the sunny coasts of California to the Prison. We're all mad here. Room; 0-02
In an attempt to tire herself out so she would sleep better, Riley had decided to take Jinx for a long walk in the school grounds. Well, long by his standards. It was hard to get anything really tiring from a cat since all they ever did was sleep. “Come on Jinxy,” she cooed happily, skipping ahead of the small black cat. He was so interesting to her, and not just because of his lack of fur. His reactions to new things were funny, so much so that she couldn’t wait to see him out in the snow for the first time. Riley walked blindly, not really caring for the world around her. The sun had coated everything in a golden glow and the wind as that perfect temperature, but even that didn’t drag her out of her thoughts. The Men in Black, The Owner, her homework. That was all she needed, homework that she really didn’t care for. The homework here was a joke, but it was nice that they provided you with everything you needed to complete it. Suddenly she was very aware of her surroundings and got the fright of her life when she realised she had almost walked into someone. “God, you scared me!” she breathed, leaning against the wall as the cat wondered off somewhere to play.
“Oops, I’m sorry! Oh, hey, Riley. What’s up?” Alex grinned, and mirrored Riley’s actions, leaning against the wall beside her. Alex and Astro had been on a walk, enjoying the sun and nice breeze. Like Riley, Alex hadn’t been paying attention and was just wandering around, lost in her thoughts of home. Bending down, she un-hooked Astro’s collar, letting him wander around a bit. Alex wasn’t worried, she knew he would come back. He also knew not to go too far. She smiled again as Astro ran over to Riley’s cat and started playing with him. “Well, they seem to be getting along, wouldn’t you say?”
Meh. You?
‘Cause there’ll be no sunlight
If I lose you, baby
There’ll be no clear skies
If I lose you, baby
Just like the clouds, my eyes will do the same
If you walk away
Everyday, it will rain, rain, rain

What’s everyone up to?
Hi! And not too much, just laying down. You?
Being in this prison they called Horus Ray Academy had really started to take a toll on Alex, at least as far as she could see. It had been two days since Alex had left her room last. She sat in front of her mirror, trying to hide the bags under her eyes. No matter how much concealer she put on, they just wouldn’t fade. Giving up, she threw the little bottle of concealer, spilling some out. She didn’t care though. Alex didn’t care about anything at the moment. Stomping her feet like a child, she went over to the balcony, making sure to close the door behind her so Astro didn’t get out.
Alex sighed softly, breathing in the fresh air. The sound of the waves calmed her pounding heart, and suddenly she had an overwhelming desire to just be in the water. Without taking the time to think, she bolted back into her room and slipped on her sandals. Before leaving, she made sure there was no way Astro could get out. She rushed to the beach, as soon as she paused she shed most of her clothes, leaving on her bra and underwear, and waded into the water.
“Yeah, really,” Ollie replied and nodded. “Something like that. Destruction of property results in my head being hacked off et cetera.” He chuckled and ran a hand through his mussed hair. “I quite like my head and would loathe to part with it so I’m praying that all goes smoothly.” Or semi-smoothly he added in his mind. Depending on the puppy he could either end up having the time of his life or in unimaginable pain. Ollie hoped that it’d be former rather than the latter.
Oliver shook his head and wrinkled his face in protest at Lex’s suggestions. “I am not getting a Dachshund! No fucking way. They’re too tiny; I’d end up squishing it or something. And a Beagle is a bit too high strung.” He chuckled at the idea of them taking their pets for walks together. A cat on a leash? That was something he had to see before he died. Wait… was that blush? Would it matter if she were blushing? Stop staring like an idiot, Oliver. “I wouldn’t mind getting a Westie though. West Highland Terriers are really cute, they’re small, but still active. Hopefully I can teach it not to bark or howl otherwise someone might just silence us both,” he grinned and cocked his head to the left.
Raising his eyebrows in surprise, Ollie leaned towards Alex with a serious face and said, “Nothing, and I repeat, nothing is more fun or important than Doctor Who,” and held her clear blue eyes for a few moments before smiling broadly. “But I am glad that you’re enjoying our chat. If you do tire of me, feel free to kick me out; I won’t take it personally.” Since I’ve never been good with women he added silently before taking another cookie. “So, have you had a personal history class yet?”
“I’m almost completely sure that you’ll do just fine. I mean, just by the way you talk about dogs, I can tell you love them. And I’m guessing that you’re really good with them.” Alex smiled cheeky-ly, and ran her hand through her blondes locks, pushing her bangs out of her face. “No need to worry about the discipline, it’ll go fine. And if you need help, I’m always here!”
“Oh, my gosh, I didn’t even think of a Westie. Yes, you should totally go that route. But it would be sort of hard to teach it those things, don’t you think? I mean, it’s in a dogs nature, ya know?” But, the more Alex thought about it, the easier it was to see Ollie with a Westie. Hopefully, he could get it trained fast, though. She really didn’t want to be woken up in the middle of the night by the barking.
She was quite taken aback when he leaned in close to her. “Whatever you say, Doctor Ollie.” She added in a playful wink and giggled softly. “Of course I’m enjoying our chat. In fact, we should do this more often. And don’t worry, I won’t hesitate to kick you out.” She noticed that Astro had climbed down from Ollie’s shoulder and was mewing by the door. “Oh, boy, Astro’s getting antsy. Want to take him for a walk with me?” Alex hopped off the bed and grabbed the little blue kitty leash from the bedside table. Without waiting for a reply, she picked up her gray kitten and latched the leash onto his collar.
Hi, I’m Alex. And welcome to Prison.
This is one of them.
Today’s my first day of Personal History too. What does “personal history” even mean? It’s a weird name for a class.
I have no idea. All I learned about was Poseidon. Like, what the hell?!
Oh, I’ve just had my first lesson. I was a nervous wreck, ha! But it was really interesting. Good luck!
Thanks, but it really wasn’t that bad.
