Characters: Iron Liz and OPEN
Content: Mind-reading abilities are not all they're cracked up to be.
Location: Cafeteria
Time of Day: Afternoon
Warnings: none

Maybe she shouldn't have dragged herself out of bed. She had to get some coffee or something to try to cope with this headache that had been building up for the past several days.

But the cafeteria was far, far worse than even her room. Voices came from EVERYWHERE, bombarding her nonstop, even people who weren't even in the room. What had started as an occasional amusing thought as she passed someone in the hall became a constant chattering in her ears from everyone in what was apparently an expanding range. Sora and his friends going on about their recent departure and return, Princess Celestia's fixation with cake, random snippets of songs, Twilight's motormouth, Pinkie Pie, Pinkie Pie, Pinkie Pie, Pinkie Pie...

Pretty soon it all just became a jumble of noise she could barely even follow. Everywhere. She didn't even make it to the food synthesizer before she couldn't take it anymore and collapsed against the wall, leaving fingernail scratches in the paint as she slid to the floor, clutching her head, gripping her hair as if to tear it out.

Harvey was content enough to sit in silence. He wasn't drinking quite as much as Iron - he rarely did like to drink too much - but he could feel himself finally relaxing after days of being pursued around the Satellite. It was nice.

He looked down at Liz with a little surprise as she slid her head into his lap, then tousled her hair lightly. Good. She needed the rest. Trying not to jostle her, he carefully worked his way out of his jacket and draped it over her. For a while, he just sat there, rubbing her back and humming softly, until eventually he leaned back and drifted off himself.
