Orion closed his eyes.

S032: Orion Williams - DECEASED

Orion couldn’t really feel anything, but it hurt all the same. It was getting really cold, too. And hard to think. It took all the energy left in his body to look up and speak.

It took him a moment to recognize the face in front of him.

The bottle was empty before Orion had even realized he’d finished it. When was the last time he had a cup of water? It must’ve been at breakfast, before the trip; an eternity ago, as far as he was concerned. He shivered as he rummaged through his bag for another bottle, sipping on it much slower thi...

Orion was out in the roughlands for an awfully long time, wading through the brush and scouring for white rocks. If he hadn’t been looking over his shoulders the whole time, it would’ve been kinda pleasant. The desert was beautiful, in its own kind of way. Shame he was here to die. He didn’t hear an...

Huh, he could’ve sworn that the shiny stuff in rocks was quartz. It’d been a hot minute since he’d been in the Girl Scouts, and maybe those skills were deteriorating faster than he thought. Then again, they weren’t really camping in deserts up in Oregon. Before he could say anything, hidden speakers...

It was not the course of action he expected, but not one Orion was going to complain about. He just hoped that nobody would stumble upon their little camp—or at least, that they wouldn’t get him first. Orion dropped his bag, and then took off his jacket. Joel seemed to be looking for the kindling, s...

"I doubt they put any in our bags." The few extra feet probably didn't matter, considering how far away the swarm was, but Orion still made sure to stand further back than the others. He bounced on the balls of his feet as he glanced between them. "Well, that's it, right? We fall bac...

Hah, I was also tempted to hero during first rolls. Figures this'd happen. That being said, I'm taking death ideas! EDIT: I forgot to add—just as a heads up, I'm looking for a relatively specific situation for Orion's death, but as long as that's met I'm pretty flexible! EDIT 2: Got something arrang...

Everyone seemed to be on the same page, and while it didn’t really surprise Orion, he was relieved all the same. As the girls went on ahead, Joel slid up next to him and gave him an ultimatum. Orion didn’t turn to acknowledge him, but he silently cracked a grin. “I’ll get back to you on that, whiteb...

“Fair enough.” Orion couldn’t really argue with what Lucine said, but when he thought about it, he’d rather take his chances with the elements than with other people. But then the others started agreeing with her, leaving him the odd man out. Sure, he could always just walk away, but that meant goin...

Well yeah, that was obvious, but Orion couldn’t really be mad at the answer because he was the one who asked. Either way, knowing the shambling swarm of bugs had once been a girl they'd gone to school with wasn’t comforting in the slightest. God, who else was going fucking crazy out here? Some of hi...

Only one of them did what he’d asked, but that was enough for him. Someone new had shown up, too, but the fact that they hadn’t immediately started shooting lightning or some shit was also a good sign. Orion started jogging towards the trio, which quickly turned into a leisurely fast-walk. He really...

There was someone else further up the road , hands on his knees, huffing and puffing. He hadn’t stopped running until he’d left the roughlands, and by then he was absolutely drenched in sweat. Peeling off his jean jacket hadn’t helped much, and for a moment he thought about taking off his shirt, to...
