midnight returns to her dorm, somewhat unsettled after the events of the day. although it was so... normal, there was something so wrong about this town, and midnight couldn't figure out what that was.

rather than dwell on her emotions, midnight grabs her electric guitar, sliding outside in hopes of blowing off some steam. the girl begins playing some of her favorite riffs, plucking the strings as fast and hard as possible.

as time passes the girl gets more into the music, beginning to somewhat freestyle as the notes fill the air. she sways her body to the music, the deep tone of her guitar causing her bones to vibrate.

"sounds pretty good, addams. didn't know you even played" the girl hears, whipping her head to find yoko. "i dabble. what's up with you?" midnight questions, watching the girl as she softly plucks the strings. "just trying to mentally prepare for everyone wolfing out" yoko admits, coming fully through the window to the balcony.

"is that tonight?" midnight questions. "yup. honestly, i think your guitar has been blocking the sound out" yoko states, somewhat laughing at the statement. "what a joy." silence settles among the roommates for a moment, both somewhat unsure of how to continue the conversation.

"so, are you excited for the harvest festival?" yoko questions, looking to the addams girl. "far from it. i believe wednesday is cooking up an escape plan though, so it can't be too horrible" midnight admits. "so you're out of here then, huh?" yoko questions.

"most likely. wednesday won't stop until we escape this place, so i don't have much of a choice." yoko looks at the girl for a moment, contemplating her next move. "do you even want to leave?" the vampire questions, sensing that her roommate was holding back something.

"honestly, i'm not sure. i figured this is the last place i'd want to be, but i can't say i hate it. if anything, it's been pretty amusing thus far. but if wednesday wants to escape, chances are i'll be gone soon enough. twins stick together or whatever" midnight rants, somewhat shocked that she had opened up to her roommate.

"you know midnight, if you don't want to leave you shouldn't. i feel like you could be a good addition to this place. who said you have to stick with wednesday?" yoko argues, looking at her roommate with crossed arms. "it's just a twin thing. i cant leave her, end of discussion" midnight states, yoko putting her arms up in defense once midnight begins to glare at her.

"now i'm going to go chat with wednesday. something tells me she already has a plan in motion" the addams girl adds, beginning to slide into the room. midnight focused to ensure her guitar was completely protected, not very worried about any injuries she faced.

"lights off is in an hour. make sure you get back, addams" yoko calls out, the dreary girl barely nodding in response. after tucking her guitar away in its case, the girl slips on a sweater and dips out of the room.

within about a minute midnight had arrived at her twins dorm, knocking on the door. enid swiftly appears, offering midnight a somewhat shocked yet excited look. "it's your twin!" enid calls out, wednesday sitting at a computer.

"what are you doing sister?" midnight questions, her gaze focused on her sister sitting on enid's side of the room. "i've planned our escape. tyler should be calling any second, you can sit in while i tell him the plan" wednesday states, motioning to enids bed.

a small humming fills the room, wednesday swiftly clicking a button. tyler's face pops up, both twins somewhat perplexed. "uh... hi" the boy mumbles, looking extremely frightened and confused. "that's thing" wednesday states, midnight offering a soft smirk at tyler's fear.

"is he... like, your pet?" tyler questions, continuing to look at the hand with wide eyes. "he's sensitive" wednesday states, hearing thing clamoring around. "look i know nevermore is ground zero for all things weird, but this is next-level. so, what happened to not wanting to be a slave to technology?" tyler questions.

"deperate times. are you still willing to help us escape?" wednesday questions. "well after what happened at the weathervane today, i figured they'd have you two in solidarity" tyler admits. "there's the harvest festival this weekend, attendance is mandatory. i'm going to use it as a cover. if you're still willing to drive us to the train station, i can make it worth your while" the black-haired girl assures.

tyler is quiet for a moment, looking at the girl. "yeah, i'm in. and, no charge. consider it a freebie" he states. "why?" wednesday questions. "cause i wish i was going with you. at least you guys will get out of the hell-hole town" tyler mumbles, his energy becoming much more solemn.

wednesday quickly says goodbye to the boy, turning to her sister and roommate. "so at the harvest festival, we will distract weems and then head off with tyler. he can drive us to the station, and we should be gone by midnight" wednesday states, her sister quiet for a moment.

"is that alright?" wednesday questions, glaring it her twin. rather than respond the girl nods her head, getting up from the bed. "nice seeing you midnight! you have to teach me about hair stuff sometime!" enid smiles, midnight offering a kind nod.

once all her stuff is collected the girl swoops out of the dorm, refusing to offer another word to the conversation. she quickly arrives in her dorm, yoko turning to look at her. "hey addams. what's the update?" her roommate asks, offering a curious gaze.

"wednesday and i are escaping at the harvest festival. she said it was the perfect cover, not that i disagree. it's just a bit... odd" midnight admits. "well, i'll miss you. you're super weird and i know you probably don't really like me, but you're genuinely pretty cool midnight. i hope everything works out for you" yoko blurts.

"don't get all sentimental on me, tanaka. i thought you were better than that " midnight teases, looking at her roommate. "ok ok. you've been quite the roomie though" yoko smiles. "please never use that word again. it's vile" midnight states.

"you can't stop me, addams. we are roomies for life" yoko jokes, midnight putting a finger gun up to her head as she rolls her eyes. "come on midnight, say it. roomies for life" yoko taunts. "seriously?" "i could expose your plan to weems in a heartbeat" the vampire threatens. "that's a bit dramatic tanaka. not something to do when we are... roomies. for life" midnight spits out, cringing at the words.

"i knew you would say it! you do care about me, huh midnight?" her roommate questions. "not quite. but you can dream" midnight smirks, her eyes cold as she looked to her roommate. yoko rolls her eyes leaning back in her bed. midnight laughs, beginning to get ready for bed as her thoughts run wild.
