Thursday DE

[needsmoreresearch]

Obligatory personal whining because I can: oh maaannnn, my house has become a Plague House, everyone is so sick, weeehhhhhhh.

DE on a cheerier note: your characters are stuck inside for a week (at their home, or at Milliways). How does that go?

Lol, gold. :D

...You win.

This is pretty much Jim's life at the moment. I think it can safely be said that as long as Sherlock's around, he's got a distraction he's happy with.

If he's not, then...it doesn't go well.

I hope everyone in your house gets better soon! Plague houses are the worst. <3

[likeroaringlions]

ugh, thank you. my little guy keeps seeming like he's getting better and then...not.

[cottoncandypink]

I'm snowed in with the flu. I'm so annoyed about it all.


As for the actual question, I don't think any of my pups would handle it well. Though, it's probably a pretty even divide between "will just get a bit anxious and jumpy" and "will straight up murder someone from the stir crazy."

[needsmoreresearch]

Yeah, over here in Albany we got Portland's weather by mistake? I hope you're starting to kick the flu's butt, though.

[cottoncandypink]

It was apparently a very short flu. Presumably because my body didn't want to deal with both of this crap at once, so I slept about 14 hours, and now I'm fine. :D

[clayforthedevil]

aah, I hope you and the household are all Free of Plague soon!

Hm, assuming they're stuck inside a pretty decent house with no immediate fear of starvation etc?

-Joly: it depends on the company he's got with him. Good friends, or people who might become good friends? He'll be fine, for a week. Oh, he'll get a bit fretful and start speculating about what terrible contagious disease will Kill Them All, but really he'll be fine if he's in good company.

-Bahorel would be fine either way, really. He'd hate the principle of being Trapped, Caged Like An Animal, etc, but that would just be for yelling about; as long as there are books and company and lesser necessities like food, he can handle a week, no problem.

-Gringoire has wanted all his life to face bad weather and other poor traveling conditions by holing up in a cozy room and not going anywhere, instead of by having to be out in it. If he's got books and enough food for himself and Djali, this is a Vacation.

[harryhotspur]

....it goes badly

[clayforthedevil]

He's like one of those dogs who tears the couch up if he's inside for an afternoon, isn't he.

[heartbeneathastone]

actual photograph of harry percy left alone inside for one hour

[likeroaringlions]

feuilly probably leaves treat puzzles hidden around the room whenever he has to go out for a bit

[clayforthedevil]

Does Harry also get a Thundershirt

[heartbeneathastone]

feuilly just kinda DIY-ed it

[needsmoreresearch]

possibly true story: one time feuilly got a peanut butter kong for the dogs but harry found it before they did

feuilly got back to the room and harry was so happy with it he didn't have the heart to tell him

[clayforthedevil]

the mental image of Harry wrestling to get the Treat out of a dog toy may never leave me again

[notapilot]

Good at keeping themselves busy and out of trouble: Sam, Izana, Touji, Pino, and Hank.

Likely to get into trouble: Rollo (manageable as long as he has drinks to keep himself entertained), Eliot, and Selina.

Dangerous when bored: Ahsoka and Sabine. They wouldn't start fights but they might decide to do dangerously stupid things to entertain themselves.

[have_no_mercy]

I, too, have the plague.

Tess is fine, although she'll lament how much work needs to be done.

Kylo and Sikozu are usually inside - spaceships. It's when they're outside that's the unusual part.

[needsmoreresearch]

ugh this plague is a bad plague--I hope you're beating it!

[feminine_menace]

YT would be mostly fine if she were stuck in Milliways, but in her RL house for a week? She'd be climbing the walls and driving her mom batshit crazy.

If Seimei were stuck in his demesne for a week he'd find something to keep him occupied. Probably invent some new spell, or mix up incense, or do a lot of nice calligraphy.

[cassiefuckingcage]

Oh, man. Leaving Cassie inside for a week. Not, um. Not a good idea. She needs just a teensy bit more stimulation than that.

Garyn, by contrast, knows all about being locked inside a place for a long time. Knows a bit more than he'd like, really.
