"Not a problem Puck, and I'm not interested in you, or anyone for that matter, either." Lilli sighed and looked over at Midori. "Midori, I don't care if you can go days without food, you will eat what is given to or I will stuff it down both of your throats." She stared at the green hair woman, almost daring her to say no again.

"Spirits above, Puck! No wonder you're so damn infamous if crap like this spurts out of your mouth all the time!" She smacked the Sandman upside the head, then picked the tray back up and held it out to Midori again.
"Lili here's right, hun. You can have as much food as you want here, so indulge yerself! No matter how nasty it might be!" She smiled at the young demoness. "I know things may have been different back home, but you're here now. You're here to get better, and maybe part of the reason why you've been having so much problems is because you keep denying yourself what you truly want in order to please others. You're away from that environment now, so don't be afraid to be selfish!"
She suddenly stopped, clapping a hand over her mouth as she rushed to use her tail to balance the tray of food. Why had her normal accent suddenly come out, instead of Rayle's?! And why was she feeling so compassionate, so... So parental?! Gremlins weren't parental in the slightest. Hell, her own family had sent her off to the military by the time she thirteen! But, I want to protect Midori. I want to help her survive... Normally I wouldn't have fought off a creature that was three times my size for someone else-- I've never done that! I would've gotten Shard to do the dirty work for me. But, I leapt into the fray without even thinking... What the hell is wrong with me?!? She grabbed the tray firmly with both hands, refusing to even look Midori in the eyes.
"Please, just take the tray." She didn't even trust her voice anymore, only allowing herself a whisper.

Midori looked at Lilliana and Meela, not understanding why they were forcing her to eat. Why did they want her to take the food? Didn't they want it for themselves? Surely the Asylum didn't have enough food for all of them. "Oh, I got it!" Midori said, "You guys probably want to feed me now so that I don't have to eat for the rest of the week. That's so nice of you, thank you so much. I'll just have..." Midori took the fork from the tray and stabbed the closest thing to a vegetable that she could see. "Thanks for the food!" She said with a smile as she placed the vegetable in her mouth. She took about three more pieces of the veggies before she put the fork down. The rest of the food went to the second mouth.
"Thank you for the encouraging words, Meela. But I don't want anything, really. I simply...Well..." Midori wondered if it was okay to say she wanted out of the Asylum, but figured that it would only get her in trouble. With a smile, she pet Meela on the head. "You're so small, and I thought I was tiny."

"Damn it, why is it always the chicks?" Puck asked, rubbing his head. "Was what I said really that bad?" He wondered out loud before letting out an irritated sigh. "Well, I'm just glad that mouth of yours finally got something to eat, Green. I was worried I would lose my hand. Of course I can just make a new one, but I would be too lazy to."
Suddenly a bell rang throughout the Asylum, it was the 15 minute warning. "Attention. Attention. It is 7:45 AM. All inmates must report to their posts by 8:00 AM. I repeat, all inmates must report to their posts by 8:00 AM."
Puck snorted, "Well that's my queue to go." He pat Shard on the shoulder, "I bet Oberon is on his way right now. And I bet he's going to get Ayaka too- I overheard you're on Disposer duty too." He flashed the snow demon a smile, showing his sharp teeth. Moving onto Midori, he gave her a wink. "And I bid farewell to you as well, Green. 'Til we meet again! See ya folks. AND SEE YOU LATER MOORT!" Puck yelled at the tree, before he flew up into the air and phased through the ceiling. \
Take note that if your character is all alone in their duties (e.g. Moortimier) You can write out their entry in the other threads and not worry about a response. I'll occasionally pop in with a random character to help spice things up, though.

Shard just laughed to himself at the proceedings with Midori and the food. He finished his own up, leaving his several plates squeaky clean. It was nice after only having food in a hurry while travelling! It was also rather surreal watching the hair feed her second mouth, almost happily. Being here might actually be good for her, strangely enough. He might be able to say the same for himself, at least until he and Meela can get to working on those wings...
"Ayaka, you're headed to the operating room too? Oh good, at least I'll know someone up there," he said. Not long after, people began to disperse and Oberon appeared in the crowd.
"Puck went off already? Good, I didn't want to have to remind him. Come on, clean up and let's go," the guard said.

"Why does he call me green?" Midori asked, looking at the ceiling with wide eyes. Puck was definitely a strange guy. 'Of course, my hair and skin are green...And my name does mean 'green' in Jigoku's native tongue.'
"Midori,"
Looking away from the ceiling and turning in her seat, Midori saw Gorgon slithering toward her. "Miss Gorgon," Midori stood up and bowed at the Lamia. "It's so nice to see you again."
"Nice to see you've made friends," Gorgon said as she looked at the remaining group of creatures, "and one of them is from Block C...Hey wait, you're Lilliana? If you're friends with her, that means..." Gorgon let out a groan. "That means you've met Puck, too, huh?"
"Yes, is there something wrong with Puck? I think he's pretty interesting."
"Interesting may be putting it nicely. Just be careful of him." Gorgon said, "Now come with me. You are assigned to clean the girl bathrooms in Block B."
"Yes," Midori turned to bow at the group, "thank you for eating with me. I hope we could do this again."

"Hey! I'm actually tall for a Gremlin, thank ya kindly!"Meela sighed, then hopped off of her chair. At least no one noticed that my accent dropped. I still can't believe I allowed that to happen... She rolled her shoulders and shook out her tail, smiling as a series of pops resounded from the appendage. The Basilisk guard from earlier walked over to her, regarding her with cold eyes.
"You'll be cleaning the girls' bathrooms on Block B, Gremlin. Once either Gorgon or myself is satisfied with your work, then you will move on to the other blocks. If you so much as think about shrinking and escaping through the pipes, I'll have the Head Hunters track you down. Understood?"
"Yeah yeah, don't get your scales in a knot buddy. I wouldn't escape anyway, I'm havin' too much fun here!" She grinned back at the guard, giving him a mock curtsy. The Basilisk rolled his eyes, turning to Gorgon.
"She's all yours. Hopefully we can knock her antics on the head before we get a female Puck." Meela stuck her tongue out at the Basilisk once he turned his back, then grinned at Midori.
"Looks like you're not rid of me just yet, hun! Come on, let's go make sure these bathrooms are nice an' spotless for our humorless friend over there!"

Hours flew by as the inmates worked at their jobs. It is now around 4:00 PM and those who have been working hard have become weary.
"ATTENTION. ATTENTION. IT IS FOUR'O CLOCK. SHIFTS ARE COMING TO A CLOSE. ALL GUARDS MUST LOOK OVER THE INMATES' WORK AND MAKE THEIR APPROVAL. ONCE AGAIN, IT IS FOUR'O-CLOCK. ALL SHIFTS ARE COMING TO A CLOSE."

"Wow," Midori walked out of the elevator and stared at the huge crowd of inmates that were gathering around the cafeteria. "I didn't expect all these people to show up all of a sudden. And I thought breakfast was crowded- this is insane."
"Come and get it!" shouted a female chef from the kitchen area as she banged a pan with a ladle. "Today's special is steak! Don't ask what kind, just enjoy the fact it's meat!"
"Oh...It's meat..." Midori let out a disappointed sigh as she took a tray and lined up. ""I hate meat. Maybe I'll get lucky and they serve some kind of side dishes."

"Ya don't eat meat?! Wow, no wonder you're so green, Midori! Meat's good for a growin' girl like yourself! Then again, I'm a carnivore by design and by habit. And my taste buds aren't exactly gourmet, so I'll eat just about anything right now!" Meela grinned, showing a bit of her fangs and bouncing a little on Midori's shoulder. Her stomach rumbled loudly, enough to make a few of the other inmates look over. Upon seeing her and the Two-Mouthed Woman, several blanched and moved out of the way.
"Hey, lookit that! They're makin' way for us! C'mon hun, let's go jump ahead before they run outta the good stuff!"

"W-wait, hold, I don't get it- why did they move!?" Midori cried, looking at the inmates that stepped out of the line. The looks they gave her were a mix of fear and disgust.
"Hey!" Midori head was suddenly pulled down as male fairy inmate grabbed her braid and yanked on it. "We don't need you taking all our food, so get your share and move your ass!"
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry- I'll move, I'll move!" Midori cried again, immediately rushing for the food when the fairy released her hair. "Damn, that mouth is freaky- no wonder you're in the Asylum. That or you're just so annoying not even the sane folks can handle you."
"Yeah, I bet her voice can break glass if she screams high enough." Snickered a goblin inmate.
Midori ignored their comments as she looked for something to eat. The meat pile in one of the trays was definitely a mix of different kinds- some slices looked thicker or darker than the other. "Ewww..." Midori whined moving past the meat and heading for the side dishes. She felt her hair squirm, her braid visibly shaking. "Okay, okay, I'll get you a few slices!" Midori said, taking the tongs that were laying by the tray and putting a few pieces of the meat on her plate.
"It's so gross and squishy." Midori sighed, moving on down the line. She was thankful to find a tray of mixed vegetables- at least she thought they were vegetables. They were green.
'Wait, those aren't vegetables.' The green bits moved and suddenly a tiny slug popped out and started climbing out of the tray, prompting Midori to scream in fright. "A slug!"
"Oops, sorry, that was supposed to be my dinner." One of the lunchlady inmates, a fish woman, stepped forward and grabbed the slug. When she swallowed it whole, Midori felt like fainting.
"Meela, can we find a seat now? I feel like crying..."

After her shower Ayaka walked down to the cafeteria 'Well, I don't smell as bad now....but that was gross.' She sighed and got in line to get food. Near the front of the line she saw the green haired futakuchi-onna and her gremlin cell mate. Well this day just got better, maybe they won't notice me.''

Meela watched the food, warily picking up things that didn't seem to be moving, then gaped when she saw the lunchlady swallow the slug whole.
"Whisky tango foxtrot?! Okay yeah let's go sit down! Spirits above I'm startin' to get a bit grossed out." She balanced her tray in one hand while pointing to an empty table from Midori's shoulder. "There, I think that table's open for us." She turned, spotting Ayaka toward the back of the line. Part of her just wanted to ignore the Yuki-onna, but that part was swiftly squashed by her brash nature.
"Heya Frosty! See ya made it outta work in one piece!"

Ayaka sighed "Of course I did, I just had to dump body parts in the river, nothing dangerous." She grabbed some food and walked over to the table where the others were sitting, she didn't want to be dragged over there by Puck again.

"It's so nice to meet you Ayaka. I don't know if Puck properly introduced me, but I'm Midori! I'm from Jigoku too! It's so wonderful to meet a fellow Oni." Midori said with a bright smile as she sat down with her tray.
Carefully she untied her braid. The few locks of hair that were set free immediately went for the meat and proceeded to bring it to the second mouth. "I'm still not used to thiiiis..." Midori whined, her head drooping down in despair.
