"No, no, Mellie is fine, if that is what you go by," the voice is the ceiling replies with another sigh. He definitely sounds like he's been through this before and is more than a little put out by it.

But he doesn't want to leave his guest feeling entirely unwelcome here and so he pipes back up, "Mine is Cyrus, and yes, I'm afraid that is what's happened to you. Not to worry, though. It's quite common around here and rather easy to fix, if not a bit long-winded. You don't seem to be too alarmed, which is good, because quite a lot of our unwitting guests who find themselves in our Office immediately fly into a panic and begin to run around screaming... which frightens our Office, and that never bodes well, so if you could hold off on that, I'd greatly appreciate it."

"Now then," Cyrus continues with yet another sigh, as if trying to decide on what should be done next - which is precisely what he's doing, "what to do with you. Suppose you might be looking for refreshments, Mellie? I could direct you to the ever-popular employee lounge, if you like? Or perhaps you might like a tour of your new temporary lodging, I could show you around? Whatever you prefer."

It's difficult to tell from the sound of his voice whether or not he really, actually cares about what Mellie wants to do. He could be reading from a script or simply following what he's been trained to do in these occurrences, he could be melancholic or bored or jaded, or it could simply be the sound of his voice. At this point, it may be impossible for Mellie to tell unless she is particularly good at reading people. The fact is, Cyrus has been through this rigmarole so many times that unless something extraordinarily out of the ordinary happens, he's stuck in a rut. Guiding people around the Office is like guiding water through a canal. It only has so many ways to go.

"When Stanley came to a set of two open doors, he entered the door on his l- Wait a minute. You're not Stanley. You're- Ohhh dear, it's happened again, hasn't it? Hhhhh." A voice seemingly coming from the Office ceiling sighs, sounding quite exasperated. "This is becoming quite ridiculous, this increasingly common trend of Protagonists being yanked from their Stories and dropped into this one. Very well then. What might be your name?" @the-haunted-office

At first Mellie couldn't help feeling like she'd just wandered into a room where someone was started a new chapter in a book--not at the beginning of the book mind you. No, this was somewhere….well she couldn't tell where and then the voice addressed her of all people.

Green eyes looked upwards to the lights, feeling a tad ridiculous to speak back, but given that whomever this was addressed her first. Well, it seemed rude to not talk back! "My name is Mellie, not sure if you want the entire thing or not. I can give it if ya want, I'm not bothered by it, but we'll start there. Is that what happened to me…? I got yanked, as ya call it?"

Sometimes you could be doing everything right and thing will still go wrong. The key is to never stop doing right.

Part of Doomsday's purpose as a character when I first introduced her wasn't just to act as an antagonist and as an alternate to Thursday, she was to show who Thursday could become. That still holds true. When you look at the two of them and their personalities, you can see them in each other. Their senses of humor and their shared bitterness as well. It's more plainly seen in Doom than it is in Thursday, but that's because Doom is Thursday after she stopped giving a shit. If you look closely at both of them, though, you'll see that Doom still cares and that Thursday still hurts.

As much as she's pretending to be all right, Thursday actually isn't feeling all right. She's feeling quite miserable, but she figures if she acts like she's all right, others will leave her be. It never actually works - hell, Cyrus wasn't convinced earlier, and he only gave up hassling her because she handed over the baby - but she does it every time anyway because she doesn't like all the attention. In her experience nobody actually cares when you're sick - it's all pretense.

All the proof she needed that people don't give a shit when you're sick was given to her when Doomsday first appeared, and that was when she was dying. Literally dying, and people didn't care. People who she thought were her friends were nowhere to be seen, so it's pretty strange to have someone standing at the bottom of the ladder now when all she has is a simple cold.

With her head still up in the ceiling, looking around with her flashlight, she scoffs, feeling a little bit bitter herself over the whole ordeal, even though Antares hadn't been there for any of it. "What are you talking about? I haven't been sneezing all over the building. And I've got tissues shoved up in my nose. Would you feel better if I masked up? Is that your whole deal, then? And what's it matter if I'm sick or not? I could fall and die even if I wasn't sick, and then what's your argument? You gonna hold the ladder for me if me falling and dying is your big concern? You want me to wear, like, a harness and a bungee cord or something? What do you want from me, man?"

She lets out a huff, which just kicks up more dust and makes her cough, so she comes down out of the ceiling finally, leaving the ceiling tile open, and waves the dust out of her face. It isn't until she looks down at him standing there that she finally starts to feel bad. He isn't the one who left her for dead, and maybe he really is just trying to help.

She sighs. "All right, I'm sorry. I'm just- a bit confused about why this is such a big deal, that's all," she admits more than a bit awkwardly. "I mean- You really made porridge for me?"

"Respawn..?" Oh. So she could just do that. That explained the utter disregard for her own wellbeing. The concept of never meeting a permanent end was tragic to him but at the same time the way Thursday was seemingly taking her life for granted chafed him.

Not to mention how Thursday was straight up ignoring him telling her to come down and instead going off on a tangent about a pandemic. He had gatheded that Thursday, and others in The Office, were from some other timeline much like his own. It seemed the similarities were stronger than he thought.

"So that's how it is, huh?" He sighed and, although he knew Thursday wouldn't see it anyways, shook his head. He approaches the ladder Thursday is on, trying to peer into ceiling. "You expect others to mask up but you go around sneezing all over the building."

He backs away at a particularly strong sneeze that has the ladder shaking.

"You think you're getting anything done if all you end up doing is fall, respawn, and fall again?" Maybe she could get it fixed, he didn't know exactly if Thursday was any good with household repairs. And how long would that take?

"Fine. Maybe, you'll get better on your next 'respawn' or whatever..." He's mumbling now, but still clearly and loud enough for Thursday to hear him. "And here I even went through the trouble of making you porridge."

That last part actually came out a little more bitter than he intended.

⏳ (cyrus)

For every “⏳” I receive, my muse will openly talk about a bit of their backstory.

"A bit of my backstory? Oh, where to even start on that? Well, as some of you may know, my sister and I are not from this planet. We are actually from a planet at the other end of this galaxy, a planet known in your human language as Soatera. We left to find a cure for the Dampening mist - or rather, a way of defeating it. We... were not quite successful in our mission, not directly. You see, we mistakenly brought the mist with us to this planet in our search for a cure. Ah... Sometimes I wish we'd never left our home. We might never have caused such suffering had we stayed. We did our best to contain it here, but... well... we did our best."

The older Narrator seems distressed with explaining this part of his life. There seems to be some details he has left out, but he has at least told the overall part of what he meant to tell. Still, he is unhappy with it.

🌺  younger sibling(AM to Doomsday with AM being the younger more annoying sibling)

Hahahaha I like this! This could be really amusing. xD

Do you want to do a whole AU of this? I'd be down for that. Would AM still be an android? Does that mean Doom would be an android too? Or would they both be like adopted by Dr. Chandra or someone else? Or are they literal siblings? Thoughts on this? We could do this so many ways. Either way they'll still be on each other's nerves. Even funnier is if they have to share a room or share a bathroom at least. I remember sharing a bathroom with my younger brother growing up and it was SO ANNOYING. x)
