Rep narrowed his eyes at the look Kostya gave Jordan, everything in him screaming at him to just push past the others and rip the man to shreds.
will not.> Tracey said.
And he had no choice but to stand back and let him, the anger ebbing away like water from a leaky bucket as he realised he would never have reached him anyway, he would only have succeeded in looking like an idiot in front of Jordan and Taym both.
Meeting Jordan's gaze, he lowered and then desummoned Tracey, seeming to collapse under the weight of his own defeat as he dropped to his knees on one of the furs piled around the place, breaking eye contact only to stare at the floor deferentially.

Jordan held Rep's gaze until Rep desummoned and sagged into an exhausted defeated slump. He waited a few more cautious moments before desummoning as well, though he stayed where he was. "Done?" he asked, almost neutrally.

Letting Stryker return to totem, America briefly wondered if they did need a priest. Maybe something in this weird-a** trove of stench had possessed the hunter, turning him into the big ol' raging man baby before her. She shot a look at Jordan and Harrison who'd probably notice such a change in character but...they didn't seem too concerned.
With a shrug, America made her way out, "Anything left gets burned tomorrow, I don't want anymore mutant bug outbreaks down here."

Rep didn't reply to Jordan, instead just kept his eyes on the floor, his only response being to flinch in irritation as America decided to make it that he would have to move every single thing within the space of twenty-four hours, despite already being on the brink of exhaustion from lack of sleep and combat.
But he couldn't risk it, couldn't risk more people coming back and harming his possessions. He'd do it, the way he always did what he had to.
He felt like he was falling apart and the only thing that was holding him together was constantly fixating on a mental point roughly a second into the future. All that mattered was what he was doing right now, if he managed to fill up the moments with enough diversion he wouldn't have to look at the complete loss of control he was going through and the way even doing things with genuine meaning, he kept pissing people off.
Focus on the now. Now had a time limit. He set the bone lamp down on a wooden crate sprinkled with bug parts and stood, shakily.
"I've been done for a while." he said hollowly, and turned to start clearing a spot where he could sort out what was salvageable from those too rotted for even him to keep.

Little did anyone know, the Hoard had carried more than just mutant flies, and a few such creatures had decided to get intimately acquainted with the room's cleaning crew. Quote: If you posted in this thread, roll 1d4 for status effect: 1-2: Mutant LiceThe itching scalp begins within an hour after this point. It's a terrible and awful itch, and it is contagious. Anyone your character comes into contact with while infected will get this status effect.Fortunately the infirmary has a cure! Have your character got to the infirmary and grab some special shampoo from Sunny, and write them a Shower Solo using it. The cure is optional, if left alone for an IC/OOC week, the lice will die on its own, the scalp trauma will cause a section of their hair to begin growing out white in colour. Medicinal Side Effect of Shampoo To use the shampoo roll 1d6. 1-2: The shampoo causes your hunter to hallucinate that they are 1 inch tall for the rest of the day. 3-4: The shampoo causes your hunter to hallucinate that they are a giant dragon for the rest of the day. 5-6: The shampoo causes your hunter to hallucinate that they are Elvish Royalty for the rest of the day. For the next week your hunter will be hungry and never satisfied. They'll experience the feeling of starvation no matter how much they eat. The infirmary will not remove the cause, as that would cause more damage to the hunter than just waiting it out. After a week, it disappears, leaving a spiral scar somewhere on your hunter's body.

Taym was long gone by the time itching set in, despite his detour back to acquire the glorious worm mutely deposit two gallons of bleach, kicking one of them over accidentally on purpose and revealing that it hadn't been capped perhaps as tightly as it could have been.

Jordan sighed. "I'm already covered in bug guts, I may as well stay. Are you going to let me help move things?" At least, if he helped, he would be sure that the new location was not in the building; anyway, Rep looked hollow-eyed with exhaustion and as strung-out and raw-edged as Jordan felt, and he might either collapse or lose his temper again if he did it all himself.
The exertion had made Jordan hungry, and he wondered briefly how he could even think of food when surrounded by the wreckage, rot, and splattered mess of dead maggots.

Rep gave Jordan another stare, his arms full of rotten pelts. He didn't want people touching his things who were repulsed by them or who might pass judgement on them while dealing with them. He didn't want to risk things being discarded as "obviously ruined" when he would still keep them either. But he couldn't say no to Jordan and risk upsetting him further, besides, no matter how he tried to convince himself otherwise, he was going to struggle very hard to move all of it alone or with just Harrison for help.
"Help if you want." he said grimly. "But don't throw anything away."
The bug viscera was probably a skin irritant, he found himself thinking with annoyance, maybe acidic too, he'd have to bleach the ******** out of everything and dry out and borax the pelts.

The point was not worth arguing. Jordan picked his way into the mess to start finding things he could carry. He felt grimy, filthy, and a little itchy, and he had no doubt that he wasn't getting a shower until everything was moved, so getting it over with was a priority at this point. "Got somewhere to move it to?" he asked.

Rep picked up another stack of pelts and set them aside, sorting them into piles, gathering up the mugs and doing the same with them.
"I do." Rep said to Jordan, but he had no intention of telling where that was with other people present. He figured it was better if Jordan didn't know the eventual resting place of the festering shitheap he loved so dearly anyway. "It won't be going back in my room, if that's what you are worried about."
