[ TEXT + PHOTO ]

[alterplex]

[ Brevity is a virtue of Venom's: he doesn't mince words when he throws his very concise, very curt statement up onto the network, staying pragmatic for the sake of time. It's a bit of a deviation from his standard to rely on text for communication, but he's in a bit of a bind right now. ]

Don't wander near West Leslie’s Fish Market and Creatatorium. It's one tourist trap you're gonna want to avoid.

[ He's absolutely not going to say that something fishy is going on because that pun is terrible, but it's implied. Heavily.

Actually, you know what, a picture is worth a thousand words: he sends a photo attachment approximating the area he's stumbled into, which he figures should speak for itself. A dim room with people strapped onto a bed, hooked up to suspicious-looking fluids; not exactly a vote of confidence cast in favor of this colony. ]

Try to exercise discretion.


(( OOC: this is a post to let people know about this plot right here! feel free to ask him about deets (he's still there, in this weird fishroom, texting and trying to figure out a gameplan), and feel free to drop in here to give him backup!

if you want to plot anything, go ahead and PM me or PP me at deuil as well! depending on what happens here, i'll be setting up a starter on the event log post— hit me up with anything and everything, peeps, i'm def here for all your input! ♥ ))

[Has he ever really had control?]

It's temporary in that sometimes it happens and sometimes it doesn't. I'm working on making it work for me.

[Y'know, as one does. At least he seems okay with it, right?]

[alterplex]

[ This probably isn't the right time for levity, but Venom's lips work just a fraction upwards at this incoming text. ]

You're nothing if not resourceful.

[ 'Making it work' seems to be a specialty of Liquid's. ]

[saveyourserpent]

You've got that right. Never be game over.

[Yeah, that's Liquid alright. Or, at least, he tries. He does a damn good job of not giving up, at least.]

[alterplex]

Don't enjoy yourself too much.

[ That's largely a dry admonishment, because he knows that Liquid plain won't heed him if Venom tells him to be careful and not to get in over his head— two things he has no right telling this not-kid.

There are, actually, a wealth of questions that Venom has for Liquid, but not's probably not the time for them. Not when there are sick half-fishpeople and Liquid is trying to figure out how to keep his limbs, so: ]

Drop a note if things go south.

[saveyourserpent]

You can't tell me what to do.

[Still, he has a vague idea of what he's doing, so he's not exactly worried. Mostly.]

Yeah. Thanks.

[Not that he'd want to admit it if something got screwed up.]
