boredom's been getting strong

Who: Shaun Mason and YOU.
Where: Mansion and Grounds
When: During the event
Rating: Shaun's language is always PG-13
Summary: Shaun doesn't know why everyone else is acting so weird, because he's just fine.
The Story:

There's nothing obviously different about Shaun--anyone who doesn't know him that well would probably think he's unaffected. It's not like he's making network posts with a pumpkin on his head or anything. Instead he's doing his usual stuff--editing footage at After the End Times, shooting at the range, considering how best to ambush his fellow inmates of Wonderland with glitterpaint...

People who know him well might notice a few details that are a little... off. He's not talking to himself the way he usually does, like he's responding to someone that only he can hear. His coffee consumption has doubled, completely replacing all of the Coke in his diet. He's also considerably more willing to let George out of his sight. He spends hours at a time away from her. It's almost like there's no trauma there at all.

Weird, right?

George wakes up in bed the morning the event starts, which isn't unusual. She and Shaun live together back home, in their little apartment slash office in Oakland, and they saw no reason to change things here.

More specifically, she wakes up on a day that, to her, feels like any other. She knows there's an event coming. There's a reason she's sleeping fully dressed. But it hasn't hit yet, as far as she can tell.

She leans over and presses a kiss to Shaun's cheek. They're still not public with their relationship, even here in Wonderland, since they do have a reputation to maintain. But months of not being caught have made them a lot less careful than they were back home. Acting affectionate in bed is a risk she's okay taking.

"Morning, dumbass."

They have the sweetest pet names.

"Like we're ever that lucky." A part of her will always regret not going for the Ryman Campaign job. The team that had ended up covering it had actually quit halfway through the campaign when it had gotten a little too hot for them. George was sure they'd have been better at it. She was sure Vice President Tate had secrets he wasn't sharing. Creepy guy that he was.

Not like they could do anything about it from here. She rests her head on his shoulder.

"We're gonna step outside our room and everything's going to be fire. Or zombies. But I guess that would be lucky for some of us, huh?"

"I don't mind everything you bother me to do." She glances up at him, giving him one of those barely there smiles.

"But okay, yes, it would be nice to have some uninterrupted writing time." She shakes her head, too comfortable to really come off as annoyed. "You know, after Yosemite I'd hoped you'd be at least a little zombie'd out, but no. You're just as much of an Irwin as ever."

His record scratch is enough for her to roll over and frown. "I'm joking, you realize, right? I know nothing could really zombie you out."

"On the run? What the hell do you--" she breaks off as realization dawns, then groans and flops back on the bed.

"I think we found our event."

She doesn't know what shape it is exactly, still, but clearly it's altering one of their memories, if not both. Fun. She loves when she can't trust her own mind.

"Well, we obviously have some common ground." Seeing as they're siblings and in bed together and neither of them finds this weird. "Let's find our journal. Maybe Wonderland left it alone and we can find the truth."
