Back again with a friend (open)

She stepped inside, heading for the man huddled in the corner.

"Professor? Professor, are you all right?"

Rachel stayed by the door, keeping alert as she watches Rai with the Professor.

"Get out! It's not safe!"

Methuselah Posts : 42120 Join date : 2010-08-25

She threw her phone to Rachel.

"Hit redial. Tell the woman who answers what's going on here. I'm going to try to help this poor guy."

Thank God for Fortitude. She dodged books to reach for him.

"Professor, I'm going to try and get you out of here. At least, out of the line of fire."

Because... why not? She was nice to most people.

Rachel grabbed the phone, hit redial and waited for someone to answer.

The Prof had no reaction to the Tremere other than to cringe away. He'd lost all sense of what was real and what wasn't.

Julie picked up the phone after the first ring.

"Yes?"

"Hello, I am to tell you the gentleman in curled in the corner, seeming to be in hysterics with books flying around the room." Rachel replied to the caller calmly.

Methuselah Posts : 42120 Join date : 2010-08-25

That didn't stop her from (trying) to wrap herself around him, to keep him from being hit or harmed by the flying books.

"Tell her a little help would be greatly freaking appreciated."

Methuselah Posts : 5333 Join date : 2012-02-02

"And help would be appreciated." adding that to her conversation with whomever was on the other side.

Julie swore.

"I can't. Can't do a damn thing. I've tried to get on campus. It doesn't work. She's on her own."

As soon as Griselda had interposed herself between the man and the books, they stopped flying.

Methuselah Posts : 5333 Join date : 2012-02-02

"She can't help." Rachel says to Rai as the books start to fall instead of flying. "I'll call you back when we know more." with a nod to Rai.

She crouched before the professor, her face concerned.

"Professor? What happened?"

Admin Posts : 3049 Join date : 2010-10-06

He had wild eyes when he looked at her.

"Who are you?"

Methuselah Posts : 42120 Join date : 2010-08-25

She smiled at him as she reached for him.

"My name is Griselda McKenzie. I know Julie."

She didn't say that Julie was her friend -- that would be lying.

Admin Posts : 3049 Join date : 2010-10-06

He didn't want her to touch him, so he flinched away.

"Julie? Julie knows something like you? Why isn't Julie here?"

Methuselah Posts : 42120 Join date : 2010-08-25

"She says she can't be. She says she can't even come here. She asked me to check on you. Do you want to call her, find out for yourself?"

Stop panicking, I know I'm dead. Gah, mages.

Admin Posts : 3049 Join date : 2010-10-06

He was scared, though it didn't seem he was frightened of her.

"My phone doesn't work."

Methuselah Posts : 5333 Join date : 2012-02-02

"Ours does." Rachel said softly back to the man on the floor.

Methuselah Posts : 42120 Join date : 2010-08-25

She nodded at Rachel.

"She's right. My phone works. Can you tell me what happened here?"

Admin Posts : 3049 Join date : 2010-10-06

"I tried to stop it from coming. I thought I could."

Methuselah Posts : 42120 Join date : 2010-08-25

She frowned.

"Stop what from coming, Professor?"

Admin Posts : 3049 Join date : 2010-10-06

"The Carnival. I tried. I really did."

Methuselah Posts : 42120 Join date : 2010-08-25

Oh.

She sighed quietly, reaching for him again.

"Okay. Come on and lets get you out of here, if we can. Something, I think, went very wrong here."

Methuselah Posts : 5333 Join date : 2012-02-02

"Please sir come with us." with a nod at them calmly.

Admin Posts : 3049 Join date : 2010-10-06

He shook his head.

"It will follow me. I am what's wrong with this place. Wherever you take me, I'll take this with me. Best to just leave me here."
