[Someone hated him. He's pretty sure of that. Well, no..
Lots of people hated him, on Auldrant, that is. Here, he hadn't been here long enough to annoy anyone to the length of which would deserve this kind of punishment.
The first sensation after waking up was the soreness. Everything ached and Jade couldn't open his eyes or move yet. Sleep paralysis, how he loathed it. Until here, he'd never had the displeasure of feeling it for any amount of time. When the soreness began to go away, tingling spread from his toes all the way up to his ears as his body continued to try to wake up.
When he could finally open his eyes, he was blearily staring at the ceiling and feeling like his mouth was stuffed with cotton. Every time he began to move any limbs, he could hear popping and cracking and other variousold people noises. As he finally got himself to sit up, he hunched over and held his face, making a garbled noise. He was never sunshine and rainbows in the morning, but he was never this bad. Then again, he felt like he'd been asleep for a while; much longer than was necessary. There's a bit of a shift as Jade gets his legs over the side of the bed and sits there idly for a bit. Best to get all his faculties in order before he tries to get to a terminal.
When that's accomplished, Jade is up and going to get dressed before he goes into the hallway, shuffling for the first few steps before he gets himself back up to walking a bit better. When he's reached a terminal, he turns it on, his expression far less intense than it had been last time he'd addressed anyone.]
Is it normal in the Tower to fall asleep for three weeks?
((OOC, I'm finally back babeh))

Re: [Video]
Oh? I do hope I was more or less left alone during my slumber.
[Aside from the weird dog. Can't help that.]

[He meant more along the lines of "someone considers him enough of a problem to do something about it", but he might as well not say that out loud.]
Hey, don't look at me. I wouldn't know. Had Tear not told me, I wouldn't have even known you were here.
Re: [Video]
[He sighed.]
I take it not much has changed while I've been out.
[He hasn't noticed anything, but really, he's been in his room and shambled into the hallway. Not much of an update.]

Alright, Guy, relax.]
Not sure what I can tell you that would be of much use. There was a week or so where most of the people around here aged considerably. Asch kept talking like he'd been here for years. [Can you hear the touch of disdain in his voice? It wasn't exactly an enjoyable week.]
Re: [Video] 2/2
Odd. I heard of experiments before I fell asleep. Were you aged as well or was it just Asch and some of the other residents?
[Video]
Well, it was both Asch and Tear, on top of a good handful of others. I stayed untouched. Luke didn't look or sound like he'd been changed, either. I'm pretty sure everyone's back to normal by now.
Re: [Video]
[After all, some of this stuff was so bizarre that you simply had to take it with a grain of salt.]
If anything, it might be good to check up on some of the affected, to see if there are any lingering side effects.
[Video]
[Asch was a pretty drastic change, after all, and that was only a handful of years. He'd seen plenty of older characters around - who knows what that would do to someone.
It really was a little hard to wrap his mind around, having not been part of any of this save from an audience's perspective. Geez, this place was weird.]
If you're interested, though, then sure. It wouldn't hurt to ask around. Asch has been pretty hard to spot, but you know how he is. You could probably find someone willing enough.
Re: [Video]
[Jade adjusted the glasses on his face and shifted to look around.]
Though, I'm sure there are worse things to come, given how the Tower seems to operate.
[Video]
Not to be a pessimist or anything, but it's hard to see a point for it.
Re: [Video]

[Not like he's going to hold it against Jade or anything. The man seems to be good at avoiding conclusions that aren't based in absolute fact and off-handedly encouraging others to do likewise. Even in a place like this, it made sense.]
Re: [Video]

[He could just be flattering you, Jade.]
Re: [Video]
Flattery gets you nowhere.
[Video]
Or I could be serious and mean every word of it.
Re: [Video]
[Video]
Anyways, I'll make sure to keep my ears open. Do you need anything, Colonel?
Re: [Video]
[Video]
No promises. I'll let you know if I get lucky, though.
I hope you get reoriented soon enough. I'll see ya around!
[Maybe he'll even have tea for you~ Someday.
