Who: Jack Wynand and mirror!Mark Meltzer
Where: Starting in the hallway outside Jack's room, eventually moving on to the door
When: Right now, during the event, with the Bandersnatch running about
Rating: PG? Possible swearing.
Summary: Two men from opposite sides of the looking glass strike a dangerous bargain.
The Story:
Jack is venturing out. Despite the horrifying monster on the loose, he's tired of the packaged fare the closets offer, and he's confident enough in his ability to light fires and hurl furniture items at a distance that he's willing to risk a frumious encounter, just to taste something fresh.
He's well-armed, too, in case fires and telekinesis don't do the trick; he has his wrench, his handgun, and a shotgun slung across his back. He's unmasked--for now, peripheral vision takes precedence over his comfort.
He sets out with purpose, but pauses. Turns back.
He's seen something written on the mirror closest to his room: a chess grid.
It seems an odd time to expect him to play chess, what with a beast that could be upon him at any moment, so rather than make a move, he simply looks into the mirror, frowning faintly.

His next move is almost carelessly quick.

And Jack slows down, suspicious anytime m!Mark changes the pattern. He's frowning now, though it's at the board and not the man across from him.

Mark will take the opportunity to eat his sandwich. Because why not.
no subject
"Is it good?" he asks, absently, and king-side castles.
no subject
"Yes."
But now he puts the remainder aside to focus on the game.
no subject
"You can keep eating, you know."
As if to demonstrate, he takes a bite of his own sandwich, and adds with his mouth full, "We're not in a hurry."
no subject
no subject
"Better reason to finish your sandwich."

no subject
"Either way. Think better if you aren't hungry. Fight better, too."
no subject
no subject
"I don't agree."

no subject
"Can't run as fast, though."

no subject
"Why does he limp?"
no subject
He moves a piece, picks up the remaining sandwich half.
no subject
"But you limp too?"
no subject
no subject
"Does it hurt?"
no subject
But then, the mirrorside has no weather, and he's never had to deal with cold or rain during his realside visits.
no subject
"Seems strange. If I spliced up with a plasmid--would my mirror get it too?"
no subject
no subject
"But he has the same scars. And the tattoos."
