[QUOTE="Sniktch, post: 1388580, member: 7704"] I had enough spare time at work to type a short update. I wanted to do more, but I've gotten stuck on an extended call and its not going to happen. I'll get the rest of this update posted in the near future, but here's the half page I had time to complete: ***** After dinner, Jimmy wandered back to his room with Jeff and his other two roommates. Talking to the latter two, he soon confirmed one of his suspicions. Wade lived alone with his mother, and Alan had been brought up in foster care as a ward of the state. Wade’s father had been military, Navy, and had disappeared when he was very young. Alan had no memories of his natural parents. He had tried to find them but without success. Curiouser and curiouser. Jimmy dwelt on this as he practiced his forms that night, continued pondering it when Jeff produced a hidden stash and passed a joint around the room, and later fell asleep in bed, still trying to make a connection between this odd fact and his current situation. The next morning an alarm ripped him from sleep. He stared blearily at the clock in the room. Six AM. Boy, these guys didn’t know a thing about teenagers. He hardly felt rested; he had been plagued by strange dreams that night, his head throbbed faintly, and his mouth was dry and tasted bitter and coppery. Jeff groaned and pulled the covers over his head, and Alan stumbled out of the bathroom, looking hollow-eyed and terrible. Wade didn’t stir at all. At least one of them had slept well. Jimmy rolled out of bed and headed towards the bathroom, stopping as he passed Alan. “Hey, man, you look terrible. You alright?” Alan grimaced, “No, I couldn’t sleep at all. Had a terrible headache. Its just now fading to where I can move without feeling like I’m gonna throw up. “You don’t look like you feel so hot, yourself.” “Sure don’t,” Jimmy agreed, “but nothing like that. Maybe it’s the air in this place or the food they’re serving.” Jimmy shrugged. “Maybe,” Alan didn’t sound convinced. “Hopefully they tell us what we’re doing here after breakfast like they said they would.” “Yeah, hopefully.” This time it was Jimmy’s turn to sound uncertain. He stepped into the bathroom and hesitated. “I wouldn’t bet on it, though,” he finished before shutting the door and turning on the shower. Next: Breakfast and beyond... [/QUOTE]
