Characters: John Watson, Sherlock Holmes, Mycroft Holmes, Franken Stein, Marie Mjolner, Death the Kid
Location: Building 235, and building 34...with stops in between
Date: Evening of 233; evening of 240. Potentially there will be some intermingling between as there is some travel time
Summary: Stein and Kid meet up with Marie at the aquarium. They then will double back and return to the hot water house to meet up with John, Sherlock and Mycroft for Kid's blood transfusion.
Warnings: Blood, sickness, general Norfinbury nonsense. Will change if needed.


235: A small aquarium. It has the feel of a small-town tourist attraction, the sort built to give people just stopping to get gas a reason to stay for an hour or two. There are various aquariums inside that, according to plaques beside them, once showcased various Alaskan fish, but they're all empty of fish now. Various fish names are carved into the plaques: catfish, dogfish, mousefish, and birdfish. A piece of paper stuck on the lip of the catfish-labeled tank reads, in childish text and red pen, as follows: "You have to put your own fish in the tanks. DO NOT put Birdfish, Mousefish, or Dogfish in the tank with the Catfish!" The water still runs here, and even runs hot in the sinks, though there aren't any showers or bathtubs to use. The whole atmosphere is kind of eerie, with the water casting rippling patterns on the walls, ceilings, and floors.


34: Most of this house is in ruins--to get to the door requires walking over some rubble of the ruined house, although it seems like someone has moved the worst of it, allowing easier access to the house. The intact door leads to two intact rooms, and therefore it can be used as an overnight shelter. The door opens to a master bedroom with a large mattress and a thick comforter--too thick to carry without trouble, but nice for staying overnight here. The master bedroom is attached to a functioning master bathroom; the most important thing to note here is that it has a working shower with about ten minutes of hot water every day. Some of the tiles in the shower have been shattered and broken away, revealing a metal wall beneath. One nightstand has been broken apart and burned.

impossibly late at the aquarium

[Most of their travel days have been cut short by MN poisoning. Kid can't walk as far as they need to every day, and Stein can't carry him the whole way.

It's getting late by the time Stein stumbles through the ice tunnels into the aquarium, not late enough for the lockdown alarm to have gone off but late enough that they could turn around and backtrack.

Anybody home?

[He calls, listening carefully for a response.

It's been a rough few months, and it shows. Stein's clothing is a tattered mismatch of layers, fabric piled and wrapped with no real care for aesthetic (not even stitching), and there's a strip of blanket wrapped around his head and face that leaves just his eyes showing (he doesn't have a need for glasses anymore).

He's carrying Death the Kid piggyback style, and the young god is just as bundled up against the cold as the meister is.
