At the teens talk and debate, as they theorize and wonder WTF is going on, really, a sound from the dark road that goes past the dairy bar grabs their attention. It’s the growl of a V8 — and one that Fred recognizes. Seconds later, the vehicle comes into sight, then speeds past, down the road, its red taillights fading.

It’s Belinda’s Range Rover!

OOC:
Those making the roll see that there are two figures in the vehicle. For those making it with a raise, you see an attractive blonde behind the wheel, and a handsome, dark-haired man in the front seat. She's probably in her 30s, him in his 40s.

"Didn’t you see? Looks just like her to me! Does she always drive like that?!"

"I thought she was missing?" Zach asks, looking at Freddy. "Do you think she got... taken over?"
Sep 20, 2023 12:54 am
"You've all met her at my house. I didn't get a good look at them. Could be she's with Kelly Unger's dad."

"Taken over? Ya mean like the teachers? Christ. Should we follow?"

OOC:
Forgot you all met Belinda. It's Belinda, Lily. And Fred, the vehicle (which you last saw parked at home) is coming down the road from your house.

"I guess so," Zach replies to Emily, though he does not sound certain. "Fred, maybe try calling her as well? Didn't you say she needs to pick up your sister from the hospital?" He frowns. "Though I guess she shouldn't do that if she's not herself."

Lily makes eyes at Wendy.

Call her? When she’s driving like that?…

"Maybe everything’s okay? Fred can call her and see if she’s been slugged. Otherwise, there are people stuck down in the basements that need help."

She makes another unsure face at Wendy, wondering what the right thing to say is.
Sep 20, 2023 8:55 pm
"I dunno. Yeah maybe call her Freddie. See if you can figure out if she's okay. You can ask her yes or no questions."

Shrugging, she got the idea from her TV shows but she was pretty proud of herself anyway. Anything to keep her mind off that horrible other place. Going after Belinda would take everyone's mind off the whole stinking mess unless Belinda was involved unwillingly or not. Who knew what the hell was happening anyway?

"Nah, I got Debbie home already." Freddie thumbs to Belinda in his contacts and hits dial. He waits for her to answer. "If she's come from home, then she'd know that."
OOC:
Not assuming she will, but if she does, he'll say that he's already gotten Debbie home from the hospital.

A text comes in on Fred's phone as he rings Belinda, and the boy only sees part of the message at the top of his screen before his stepmother somewhat surprisingly picks up right away.

Sarah: Freddie u there? I think B just came home? She didn't...
Belinda Solomon
"Fred! Is that you, sweetie?" Belinda's voice sounds on the other end of the line.

"Sorry I've been out of contact. I had meetings all day. Where are you?"

Nearby, Wendy is giving Lily a look back, and she shrugs... and then reddens a little when her friend's attention is on her a little too long -- which forces the freckled girl to cross her eyes and stick her tongue out at her bestie.

While Fred talks, Emily's phone buzzes as well.

Steve: hey sis
Steve: sup
Steve: bored 🥱
Steve: will you bring home a 🍕
Steve: xtra cheeeeeeese

Lily shoots her tongue out in response, while Fred takes his phone call. Her face reddens too; and she forgets, at least for a moment, what they were here to contemplate.

Then she’s conscious that everyone else is busy with themselves, minus Zach. So she asks:

"Heard from you-know-who?"
Sep 21, 2023 8:15 am
It only takes Zach a second to put together who you-know-who is referring to. He blushes very lightly. "We wrote for a bit earlier. I told him I got hurt but that I'm okay. But I didn't tell him anything about the other thing. I want him to be safe." He hesitates for a moment, then adds, "And to not think I'm some weirdo who believes in aliens."

"Might not be Ancient Aliens!" Lily says; making a pose, yet sounding dismissively matter of fact.

"Could be slug-zombies. Or… mmm…

It could be… miiiiind control magic!"
she says, gesticulating mystically towards him.

"Oooh… mind flayers. Could be that, too. If you’re worried about him thinking you’re an alien nut, I mean."
Sep 21, 2023 8:41 am
Zach can't help but snort at Lily's comments. "Shut up, you weirdo," he tells her playfully.

Them he has a thought. "You think if Belinda is back...?" he half-asks Lily before picking up his phone and trying again to call Rose.

Lily rolls her eyes and flops a hand down on the table towards Wendy.

"Kids these days. Can’t stay off their phones." she says, as everyone else busies themselves checking in with people. The hand remains in front of Wendy; an invitation.
Sep 21, 2023 3:54 pm
"Lilly, come onnn. You're being ridiculous now. Mind control. That's crazy"

But is it?

Emily's phone buzzes.

"For fuck sake, now what?" she says to nobody and looks at her phone.

Emily: hey steve. Will U fuck off!
"Anyone want a free brother? He's going cheap.
