[QUOTE="The Crimster, post: 148756, member: 2511"] The funeral attendees, including Julia, are unable to see [i]exactly[/i] what is going on with Alister. Many look puzzled and concerned, but they seem more worried about Julia. Sam puts his considerable size in the line of sight between Julia and Alister. [i]Sam, you don't see exactly what's going on over there, but from the reaction of the two guys helping out, it can't be good.[/i] The mourners begin to walk off towards their car, although some risk a look back. Sam and Randy do their best to convince them there's nothing there, and the mourners seem to believe it. The funeral is over apparently, albeit with a rather odd ending. Most will likely put it down to the poor man's nerves and the death of his professor. One man leaves the group and begins heading towards Alister. He looks to be a bookish sort, with tousled blond hair and thick glasses [i](Kristof Faulken)[/i]. He takes them off and rubs them with his tie, unsure of [i]exactly[/i] what he's seeing. As he nears, he realizes it's just what it looks like: a man covered in roaming cockroaches. He frowns and purses his lips, but doesn't seem to be too startled. Back at Alister, Alex and Dr. Silver watch as the roaches begin to slowly leave and explore the grass of the cemetery. Many are still on him, however - moving on his face, in his hair, and obviously climbing under and [b]in[/b] his shirt. Alister does not seem to notice. Rather, he continues to sob and mumble to himself. [i]Dr. Silver, you give him a once over with your trained eye. You think he is severely malnourished, with signs of possibly drug-use. The smell seems to be a combination of body odor, urine, and something else... Something that smells familiar, but you can't quite put your finger on it. It is also not a stretch for you to determine that he is most likely psychologically disturbed[/i]. "Alister? Alister? Can you hear me?" asks Dr. Silver. Alister stops sobbing, and looks up sadly into the doctor's face. "You have a diffeomorphic factor of 2.991." He sniffs, and brushes away a roach that was attempting to crawl into his mouth. "I think it's time for me to go. Time, time, time. Thirty-two point six, or thereabouts. You never can tell when it's a Jacobsthal Polynomial." He looks around, apparently getting his bearings. He seems about ready to leave. [color=red][OOC: Alex, Dr. Silver, and Kristof are near Alister. Sam and Randy are near the rapidly departing group, each of whom is going to their own separate cars.][/color] [/QUOTE]
