Who: Elim Rawne and OTA
What: Pitter Patter Flood
When: Entire FLood
Where: All over
Warnings: Minor violence, mild gore
Rawne figures out what's going on quickly. Aside from events, there's never been anyone else in a Tanith camocloak on the Barge. And now there's three, hanging around him, acting out their lives like the Barge isn't even there.
Colm Corbec strides around, yelling orders and encouragement, waving non-existent soldiers forwards to engage with the enemy. Sometimes he's at rest, eating beside Rawne in the dining hall or polishing his long silver knife.
Murt Feygor sticks closest to Rawne, seeming to mimic whatever he's doing at the moment. Walking, working, resting, talking, it's like he's got a near-double, just one with a crooked, oft-broken nose and a metal voicebox. One who scans the area for danger, watching Rawne's back like he used to.
Dermon Caffran sometimes shows up fighting, but most often he's with two kids, a boy of maybe ten and a little toddler girl. He plays with them, eats with them, leads them along the hall.
Rawne tries to ignore them, both when they look normal and when they look as they last did, with lasgun burns and death in their eyes.

"Hello, darling."

He glances uneasily at the figure on Rawne's other side.
"It seems if you talk about it, they go away. I know talking's not really our thing, but if you like to, I can listen."

Since that's getting dangerously close to expressing feelings, he adds:
"He's not nearly as handsome."

Norton's known a lot of men who fought in the war. Many of them have similar regrets and survivor's guilt to go with it. Friends who didn't come home.

"I killed her once."
He's not had any hallucinations of her, just that same sound of a child crying, but he can confess that guilt all the same.

Feygor
At the moment, Avalon’s hallucinations are visible to others, but always vague, little more than a whisper in their mind or a flash of someone’s face over their shoulder. When they sit down next to Rawne with their sketchbook, Ashton hovers in their peripheral vision, seeming to vanish if they turn to look at her. They glance at Feygor, then look back at Rawne. “Who is he?”

“And you regret his death,” they guess. Over their shoulder, Ashton glares at them. They watch Rawne, trying to figure out if he can see her.

“What do you think you could have done if you had been there?”
They glance back at Ashton. “She was one of my temporary inmates.”

“She is. I think I could have done more for her, but I have no idea what.” It makes sense, but sometimes it makes it harder for them to know when someone is real. “Do you think knowing what you could have done is helpful now?” They want to find something useful in the Flood, but most of it seems pointless. They can move forward now, but they can do nothing about the past.

“It makes sense that his death still weighs on you, but it feels pointless for the Flood to bring it back,” they say. Behind them, Ashton shakes her head. “I have no idea if I can do anything with mine.”

“Is he the only one, or are there others?”
