@DOCT0RMATHEWS / im very very slow but i guarantee revenges ^-^

[𝒩ila @penumbralll]

I don’t know what to do here. I. . . I don’t.”

She begins to pace, thinking. It’d be hard to get Ashley fired, since apparently Elias was. . biased toward them. But she could get them to quit, surely.

[𝒩ila @penumbralll]

Nila hesitates, then puts her phone back in her pocket with a sigh. She needs to be careful in how she approaches this, then, if she’s to actually help Nicholas and not make it all worse.

“. . okay. Should I talk to them? Ashley I mean. I don’t think they’ll listen, but frankly

would never let me work there again, and i love my job. `` 💧

[𝒩ila @penumbralll]

“I’m— I’m okay.” She waves a hand and stands up straight, inhaling deep.

She listens with wide eyes. “Shit. Are you okay? This is insane, they hurt you— and— Nich, we have to tell /someone/. They’re dangerous!”

She pulls out her phone, presumably to call the police.

When Nila gets there, she’s out of breath. Obviously she hurried as fast she could.

Once she locates Nicholas, she allows herself to relax for one moment, bending over with a hand on her knee to catch her breath.

“Nicholas! What the hell’s going on?”

[𝙉𝘪𝘤𝘩𝘰𝘭𝘢𝘴 𝙒𝘦𝘭𝘭𝘴 ☺︎ @UNFAMILlARFACE]

Anila was a very useful ally and easy to manipulate.

⠀⠀Sykil really was going to kill them, but that would be blamed on Ashley. All because he kept Nicholas’ statement... what a bother...

on the Michael thing. If Elias says it is harmless. . even valuable as an employee, then she has no reason to doubt him. He is the boss, after all.

[𝒩ila @penumbralll]

Nila goes quiet. She can’t really see /how/ it’s valuable in the slightest, as all it has done so far that she’s worked here is show up and make everyone uncomfortable.

Finally, she nods, trying to relax. She’s gotten quite stiff. “I see.”

She doesn’t want to push further

[Mr. Elias Bouchard 👁️‍🗨️ @CH1LDOFTHELIGHT]

He follows this with a dismissive wave of his other hand,⠀⠀`` I can assure you that Michael is no harm to you, it is a valuable employee. ``

[𝒩ila @penumbralll]

Nila hesitates. “Not. . exactly?” She sighs.

“I’m wondering what it is Michael actually /does/ here? Aside from be all creepy and weird.”

[Mr. Elias Bouchard 👁️‍🗨️ @CH1LDOFTHELIGHT]

been causing any trouble? ``

He's well aware of what Michael has and hasn't been doing. But he truly didn't care unless Michael was putting Jonathan at risk.

However, now Elias has a concerned look on his face, as if unaware of what it has been doing.

[𝒩ila @penumbralll]

that he doesn’t care.

[𝒩ila @penumbralll]

“Yes. Yes, thank you, Mr. Bouchard.” She nods sheepishly.

Another pause. . .

“Um. I had a run-in with. . someth— someone, named Michael.” This was the one she couldn’t understand. If Elias did have eyes on the archives, why didn’t he do something about that thing?

[Mr. Elias Bouchard 👁️‍🗨️ @CH1LDOFTHELIGHT]

Ashley take time off, nor would they if he even asked... such a stubborn child they were...

⠀⠀`` I'll have one with Nicholas too, see what I can do to sort this issue. `` He nods,⠀⠀`` I'd like it if my staff got along, after all. ``

[𝒩ila @penumbralll]

Did he not care? She shifts in her seat, picking at a piece of dead skin on her hand. Why wouldn’t he care it was running around the Institute. . .

She shouldn’t assume. In fact he’s played his role as a caring boss so well she feels bad in jumping to the conclusion

[𝒩ila @penumbralll]

She inhales through her teeth. “Every time they have to even /think/ about Nicholas it’s like they’re about to have a breakdown. It’s not normal. And it’s taking a toll on him, too. I feel really bad.”

[𝒩ila @penumbralll]

She’s not exactly sure what he means, and she tilts her head slightly. “. . . I thought there wasn’t any CCTV down there? I mean, I haven’t noticed any cameras. Besides I think you should. . I don’t know, make Ashley take some time off. It’s not just skepticism, it’s. . .”

[Mr. Elias Bouchard 👁️‍🗨️ @CH1LDOFTHELIGHT]

archives constantly, if something were to happen, I would know. `` Elias nods, then goes quiet to allow Anila to speak again.
