[ void void love the void here we are and jingheng is sitting somewhere, now equipped with what looks like a metal gauntlet stretching up his arm. he is just staring at a cup of donkin dunnts kind of like it personally offended him.
he will give him a small lift of the hand though. hello. ]
Hunter left pretty much immediately after the execution, but Lin Jingheng will be able to find him eventually if he's looking for him. He's tucked away in a dark, little corner somewhere in the void that isn't easy to spot at first glance — though it's likely the frantic, worried warbling that gives away his location. Flapjack is having A Time today, too.]
I'm fine, Flap. [Tersely.
He's checking out his nose using his phone's front camera and hasn't noticed Lin Jingheng quite yet. There are also a few bottles of very high content alcohol popped open next to him, pilfered from the execution bar. There sure is no hospital hell!]
[ truth be told, thank goodness for flapjack, and also for the pilfered booze. first-aid do be happening in Some Ways here in hell. regardless. jingheng's boot clicks loudly once he's close enough, and where hunter tucks himself, jingheng stands, towering.
before he crouches down, long coat billowing out briefly. ]
[ henlo. he can find him probably in his room! he's sat with a book, a harpoon gun leaned up against a wall. the door's ajar so he's allowed to stick his head in! ]
[ beep beep gonna be cruising around looking for dear hunter and will find him in the void. he's got zhanlu in tow just humming very soft music and when he approaches, he lifts a hand. ]
[Everything truly happens so much... Hunter is going to look for him a good couple hours after the execution so LJH can spend some quality time with Bixing. Wherever he finds him—]
[ hello hunter friend. jingheng is perched by a window somewhere and is smoking out a window. when he hears his voice, he puts it out quickly and turns. ]
ANYWAYS here's lin. he has zhanlu on his arm, who is currently singing a little song, and a cigarette in his mouth because what a fucking day. he is bee-lining it to wherever hunter happens to be resting after all of that. where he be. ]
[imagine if i said he was running laps after all that
But, no. He's in the dorm common room! Sitting on the couch and looking at the new scar on his neck through his phone camera. For once, Flapjack isn't using his owner as a perch, instead sitting on the back of the couch while warbling in concern. And every now and then, Hunter glances at the bird... a strange look on his face.
[Cannot believe we let Mira and Yaywon do this to us..................
Anyway, hi Jingheng. Welcome to the void where Hunter is petting Mallow like pets are the solution to all their problems. Flapjack is also here. Why are there so many animals in this game.]
[ im telling you we keep letting people do what they want and they just destroy us every fucking week.
anyways, hi, he's glad to be here in the void. he's actually holding onto popcorn after trial for no reason except maybe PRESSURE THERAPY. jingheng is not an animal person and yet here he is, wearing one, and surrounded by them. ]
Mm. On a week where people are forgetting things left and right.
[ hey there hunter! lin jingheng is making his usual rounds, and un/fortunately for hunter, he's like a permanent part of them now. it is... maybe especially unfortunate this week because he's been rather careful about avoiding these holes just for the two of them to suddenly end up tumbling into hell's own personal theatre...
[ he is just laying on one of the couches in the dorm closest to a window, smoking with a little paper ashtray balanced on his chest... hi hunter what's good. ]
[ it's borrower time! aka we're in one of the huge houses sneakin around running amok. or rather, looking for supplies that people could make use of. in general, just getting to know the place before someone decides to shed blood on someone's carpet on thursday night.
anyways. lin jingheng is looking upwards at a counter with a hum, kicking at a couple of the loosed threads and pushpins that probably belong to someone's conspiracy board or whatever.
[Cannot wait for someone to go splat on the nice carpets because they got pushed from the top of the furniture. Hunter is examining the counter as well, eyes flicking to certain spots here and there like he's already calculating the best route.]
'Course. We should take a look at everything before someone comes along and ruins it.
[The chances of murder not happening this week are zero.]
[ it's monday!!! and sometime in the afternoon and as hunter and jingheng are maybe having a hike in the forest biome there are signs of a door hidden behind some of the foliage that looks a little faker than the rest. he'll push it away with a frown and nudge open the door it reveals, sticking his head out— ]
... Hey.
[ he looks over his shoulder as he pushes the door open further— ] Ice cream?
[ he shakes his head, taking a sip of his drink. ]
Gets worse every week somehow.
[ they have more time to Bond and it's Terrible. he gazes down at his drink and there's a very quiet push of emotion, sadness and like a quiet relief when hunter sits next to him. ]
They can run into each other in the planetarium, in the room with the massive projector. Hunter is just sitting here with his knees drawn up to his chest, Flapjack softly warbling at him. But he looks up once he hears Jingheng enter the room, and just... kind of scoots over to make room for him where he's seated. Hi.]
he scoots and jingheng sits down immediately, gazing upwards for a moment at the projector slowly casting stars overhead. he gazes upwards for a long, long moment before, careful of flapjack, he... wraps his arms around hunter quietly. and just hugs him.
[Hunter is still a furry so they can be furries in the mountains. Maybe they're at the bar so Jingheng can also make tiny animals mistakes. The power is in your hands, Char.
Either way, Hunter is watching his own tail wag with a funny look on his face.]
[ hello here we are in the void for now but maybe a soft void made up of a few of the beanbag chairs shoved together into a mass and some blankets in the dorms. jingheng is just laying here staring up at the ceiling because he doesn't feel like going too far from wherever bixing is resting in their dorm at some point. when he sees hunter, he will just wave him over. ]
[ hello hunter! we are at the /throws dart, arcade, where the usual suspect lin jingheng is just shooting at one of those zombie games while a taller blonde man wearing a familiar blue core is shooting as player two. when hunter comes near, however, the blonde man turns his head and a bit of blue streaky light follows the motion, as if maybe he's some sort of semi-tangible hologram? ]
Sir, we have company. It is [ a small tilt of the head and a little dilating of his strange green eyes ] Hunter. You like this one.
[ jingheng just pauses and shuts his eyes because he just. forgot how much zhanlu Talks. he looks over his shoulder and lifts a hand. ]
There's a ping and a flash of golden light — and all of a sudden Hunter isn't standing several feet away, but right next to them with Flapjack flying after him to catch up. Hi.]
Zhanlu?! You're awake! [Literally like :o!!!! He glances at Jingheng like, are you seeing this?] He's awake!
W0, MONDAY

At least, in comparison to some of the shit he's seen this week, this isn't bad at all. Even though it leaves him with a certain kind of feeling...]
So that was the man who took care of you. [...] He seemed really nice.
