Summary: Seth and Hel have to cooperate to get out.

Seth yawned as he could feel his mind starting to wake up, though his body protested that it wanted more sleep. Seth used to sleep in the nude all the time, particularly when Astarte started to share his bed. However that changed when Meri started to get the habit of going over to the room in the middle of the night in order to "discuss ideas". This almost always fell into the pattern of Meri and her mother talking about a couple concepts, Seth tiredly giving monosyllabic answers, and Meri "accidentally" falling asleep. So to prevent possible awkwardness, Seth made it a point to at least wear a pair of boxer shorts when going to bed, even if it annoyed him to do so. Hmm, the bed didn't feel quite right...

"D'accord," she nodded, and situated herself to move across the bed when he rose.

However, when Seth went to open the door...

"Oh you have got to be kidding me!" He tried putting some of his strength into opening the door, but it stubbornly remained shut. "They locked us in, too."

She frowned slightly. "That seems somewhat over excessive. One or the other, perhaps I could understand."

He takes a few deep, settling breaths. "Okay..okay they clearly don't want us leaving until we accomplish..something."

"I would agree. But I have no idea what that something might be." She sounded apologetic, as if she was sorry she couldn't pull the answer out of thing air.

Seth looks awkwardly apologetic. "Don't worry..we'll figure something out."

[keepswhatishers.insanejournal.com]

She nodded. "I am not worried, m'sieu. I am just sorry that this is such an inconvenience." Of course, Hel had nothing to be sorry about. It was just her way to be empathetic. He was obviously displeased, and she sought to soothe as best she could.

Seth was not good at the whole "glass half-full" kind of thing, but...

"Yeah, well..it could be worse."
