#17M-RFT29.Info♱She Often Kindly Speaks To The Empty Sky Or Calls Someone's Name. Who's She Talking To?

xlabxratsx asked: does your muse like it when someone spends a lot of money on them? (@ Adriana)

Money is a... CURIOUS subject for 17M-RFT29 in that it is both a non-factor in her life, yet something that, somewhere, deep down, she still manages to RECOGNIZE and APPRECIATE the meaning behind. Though, further observations will be needed before we can confirm such a hypothesis. In all her time on the island, Adriana has only let a RARE FEW in, and FEWER STILL have shown any want, willingness or propensity to STAY. Not that anyone could blame them, given her, ahem, EXPLOSIVE TEMPERAMENT. Being around 17M-RFT29 is like being around a grenade with a random timer. A rather literal and visceral game of HOT POTATO. No one quite knows WHEN the penny will drop, but it WILL drop, and Adriana will incinerate every last flammable material she can set her eyes on. All in the name of giving warmth to Lily, that voice in her head that ETERNALLY CRAVES the fire. But we're getting off-topic. Let's digress:

So far, we have only observed a SINGLE INSTANCE of Adriana receiving a material gift from another subject: 18M-RFT34. In one survival game, 18M-RFT34 displayed a remarkable sense of empathy toward 17M-RFT29. While, yes, she REPEATEDLY referred to 17M-RFT29 as a RAVING LUNATIC, she also engaged in several (seemingly successful) attempts to converse with that little girl that no one but Adriana has ever seen. And at one point stitched together personal garments for both Adriana and Bernice. Come to think of it, 17M-RFT29 actually FAILED to recognize or appreciate Mai's gesture at the time of giving, but her demeanor certainly SHIFTED shortly thereafter. She claimed Lily wasn't so cold, and eventually thanked Mai for the garment and even invited her to talk to Lily. Again, a rarity.

Hmm... So was it the GIFT or the COMPANY Adriana treasured? Hopefully we'll get a chance to further observe her and Mai in the future. And, who knows, maybe if we could lead 17M-RFT29 to a subject such as 19M-RFT39 or 17M-RFT31, they may just be reasonable (and rich) enough to help us gather the data we need. For now, we can conclude one thing: 17M-RFT29 wants for NOTHING except for her sister. Her parents' riches FAILED to purchase Adriana's happiness in the aftermath of her sister's tragic demise. But Adriana does NOT turn away gifts given in good will. And either these gifts, or the companions offering them up, are in some way working to alleviate the ASHEN TENSION pressuring her mind to BREAK. Do with this information as you will.

(WARNING: Take care when researching this particular aspect of the subject. After 18M-RFT34's death at the hands of 15M-RFT16, 17M-RFT29 suffered a psychotic meltdown the likes we've feared ever since we let her loose on the island. Had 15M-RFT16 not swiftly exterminated her, she may have very well burned the entire island to its last cinders. These games are not ones we can play lightly.)

"I dunno? GUT INSTINCT? Maybe you're just a bitchy fashion designer. Is there anything WRONG with that?" Pause as Adriana turned, mumbling under her breath with Lily. "...But, I mean, did you not hear her? She was calling us LUNATI--... Ugh. Fine. FINE." She cleared her throat, turning her gaze back across to Mai. "Lily agrees that bitchy fashion designer MIGHT have been a little harsh. And she says she missed you a whole bunch." Another pause and a smirk had canines peaking from beneath gums. "But you CAN be a bitch and ARE a fashion designer. And Lily also thinks you should take that as you will."

       Arms folded over her stomach just beneath her chest, “Wait a sec… How the hell did you know she was talking about ME? All she said was bitchy fashion designer.”

“Complain that you’re cold again and I’ll make sure you feel heated.” (Mai @ Adriana Im sorry)

Shivering. F. FREEZING. Adriana had been FREEZING. Lily. Had. Been. FREEZING. They needed. Needed. More warmth. More heat. More FIRE. Even with the Sun blazing in the sky: It. Still. Wasn't. ENOUGH. "So cold... So... So cold..." The manic redhead rambled as she itched two rocks together over firewood, daring, begging, praying for the spark to IGNITE. "S-So..." It had been then that Mai's words fell upon her ears and all of a sudden, Adriana paused. Fingers gripped at the rocks so tight she threatened to BREAK THEM as she hunched over before throwing back her head with a PSYCHOTIC HOWL OF RAUCOUS LAUGHTER. "Ah-Hah-Hah-Hah! Right! Right! That's it, Mai! That's it! You need to make sure we feel heated." In an instant, she shoved the rocks into Mai's hands, her own bleeding. "Do it. Do it, Mai. Make sure we're NEVER COLD AGAIN." With that she clasped her own hands over Mai and began to frantically CRASH the rocks together with no rhyme or reason for the underbrush beneath their feet, nor for where any potential sparks might just have FLOWN. "Come on, Mai, we can DO IT!" Clack. Clack. Clack. "Please!" Scratch. Scratch. Scratch. "Do it!" Snick. Snick. Snick. "Do it for LILY!!" The barest hint of a spark...
