Outside Room 206, Friday Noonish

[dark_slippy_thing]

Sleep was not happening. In lieu of sleep, there was cold, and unsettling, and just a whole mess of not feeling well at all. And Valentine didn't much care for it, so he had managed to drag his miserable self back to the door, pausing again to marvel at the multitude of locks that his roomie had stuck to it, and he was out in the hallway yet again.
Maybe if he went to get something to eat, he'd feel a little better.
Eating, after all, always made Valentine feel better.

{OOC: For the eerie shadowy things. I'll be heading to work in two hours, so if you figure you can play quickly, he's open for other interaction as well after that, sure.}

As Valentine moved into the hall, the shadows under the lights and along the bottom of the walls roiled slightly as if in anticipation.

[dark_slippy_thing]

Valentine was too used to roiling shadows for his own good, and he began to make his tired way down the hallway, oblivious.

The temperature in the hallway got noticeably lower as, still attracted to Valentine's strength, the shadows followed him. They coalesced into an amorphous shape just behind Valentine.

Valentine noticed the cold right away. Sudden cold was something he tended to be wary of.
He turned around to see what was causing the drop in the temperature, and he took a moment to just stare at what had formed behind him.
"I thought I had left things like you behind when I came here!"
And he was backing away. Probably far too slowly.

[fh_extras]

The shadows weren't worried how fast Valentine was backing up as another shadowy figure formed behind him. Another step back and he would have backed right into it.

[dark_slippy_thing]

One thing that the shadowy things here had that the black tentacles from back home lacked? Strategy.
So, naturally, Valentine did back right into the shadowy figure behind himself, and most certainly instantly regretted it.

The shadow encircled Valentine, cutting off all the light. The temperature dropped again, leaving just a bitter burning cold as the shadows tried to gorge on Valentine's strength and energy.

Valentine didn't like the cold, and that fact was about all that went through his mind as the shadow wrapped around him, through him, leaving his mind spinning and everything seeming so very, very heavy around him.
