WEEK 2.

[trustfellows]

WEEK 2 Two people are dead. Jean Kirstein and Caren have both died due to a tragic accident. Of course, you're not entirely innocent, are you? You voted, you played into this game the Coordinators are running. But you know the stakes now. You know what failure to complete Rule Seven really means. No more excuses from here on out. Saturday is given to regrouping and sleep; come Sunday morning, the clock chimes the hour at seven o'clock and there are no dead bodies to be found, so it can be assumed that all of you are safe for the time being. That said, you'll be feeling a little groggy when you wake up; it seems you've regained something that you didn't realize you'd lost... Of course, exploring the building from here on will reveal something new: namely, a stairwell in the northeastern corner, leading upwards toward a new floor entirely. Another sign of how things are going to progress around here, maybe; chances are you'll enjoy what you've been given, but was it worth the lives of two people to obtain?

That's just because you haven't heard me sing. If you heard me try, that'd change quick. And don't get me wrong, I'm not saying karaoke isn't fun. I don't even really need a microphone, like, projecting isn't the problem.

[ If there were windows here, though, she's positive they'd shatter instantly, like in some dumb cartoon-- ]

Do you know Guns and Roses?

[destage]

Try me, Chitoge-san. I'm sure you won't be the worst person I've heard--I bet you've got a super cute voice that you're just too shy about...

[...As for the band, hm.]

I recognize the name, at least. It's a Hard Rock band, right?

[gorira]

Oh, so you've heard of them! They have a lot of really good songs, if you're into that sort of stuff. They're one of my favorite bands! The lead singer, his name is Axl Rose? And his range is crazy, if you've ever heard it! I'd never do it justice, but he sounds like...

[ Hold on, let her mentally prepare herself. She taps her foot to an imaginary beat, and then... ]

Ooooh, oh, oh, sweet chiiiild o' miiiiine!

[ And she mimes the guitar solo, while she's at it. Good God, girl-- ]

Dirnt neow neowwww...

[destage]

They're more something that my neighbors have blasted before, so I'm at least passingly familiar with them. Not my cup of tea personally, but I do admit there are merits to the music he plays.

[...oh goodness god, though, that's...

That is absolutely adorable? Sayaka watches with glee, and practically presses her hands to her cheek and just...kind of squeaks when she's done.]

Oh my god, you are an absolute liar! A total liar! That was adorable!

[gorira]

Oh, shut up! It's like comparing a baby on a xylophone to a concert pianist! You're just too nice to say it to my damn face!

[ But she's, at the very least, laughing at herself a tad. She can afford to make a bit of an ass of herself in Sayaka's company. And she's glad Sayaka at least found it amusing. ]

But I appreciate you humoring an amateur like me!

[destage]

Don't you tell me what to do, Chitoge-san! I think your voice is absolutely adorable, and there's nothing you can do to stop me! So there.

[Pbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbt!]

[gorira]

[ Did you seriously just blow her a goddamn raspberry?! ]

You just haven't heard enough of it yet, I swear! If you ever did karaoke with me, you'd change that opinion real fucking quick! You'll regret ever thinking that! And don't so there me, you...

[ She blows a bigger one, right back at her! ]

[destage]

[You're damn right she did!]

I'd do it in a heartbeat with you! I don't have many people to sing with in this place, you know! I don't regret a single thing at all. So--

[HAVE AN EVEN BIGGER ONE RIGHT BACK AT YOU, CHITOGE.]

There!

[gorira]

[ Ah, so it is to be war between us-- ]

I'm sure that at least half the people here would sing with you, if given the chance and you asked! [ Pbbt! ] And all of them would sound better than I would! [ Pbbbbt! ] It's a miracle that we even know the same songs, given this whole weird alternate world thing, but even if we did, my terrible screeching would drown out your melody! [ Pbbbbbt! ] It'd be a terrible idea! So! [ PBBT-- ] There! [ PBBBBBbbbbbbbt... ]

...L-let me catch my breath.

[destage]

[Chitoge what the fuck, that's making her laugh a bit. She's got the decency to hide it behind her hand, but good god. She's practically corpsing, up until the point she has to catch her breath.]

No way! Honestly, you're all just too shy to take the stage, from the looks of it. And you're perfectly adorable--I bet with a little bit of training, you'd be able to join our group relatively easily, even as a new idol! You just have absolutely no confidence!

[And you know what, just to be a twit, she'll show you what singer lungs can do--she promptly takes in as much air as she can, just to give the longest raspberry she can manage!

PBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbt...bbbbt....bbbbbbt...bbt...bt...

...

Okay, now she's gotta cough a bit because wow, that took a lot out of her.]

[gorira]

[ ...For the love of God. ]

See, now you're just showing the fuck off!

[ Somewhere in the middle, she can't help but exclaim it, but when Sayaka starts coughing-- ]

Sayaka, the tea, drink the tea!

[destage]

Chi-- [Cough.] toge-san, that's just-- [Cough, sputter.] gonna make me choke-- [Cough, hack.] on that!

[JUST LET HER CATCH HER GODDAMN BREATH FOR A MOMENT, MAYBE TWO MOMENTS OR SOMETHING.]

[gorira]

You're not gonna choke, I promise! This is what you get for trying to rub your fancy idol lungs in my face!

[ She gets behind her and starts patting her back with the heel of her hand, in rhythm with her coughing, just to clear her airway a little... ]

Breathe in through your nose, out through your mouth!

[destage]

[She does just that, then--it's not going to take much longer, thankfully, and she's...back in working order after a bit. Wow.

...She's going to take a drink of tea after settling for a few moments, before just. Shaking her head.]

Okay. So I may have miscalculated a bit.

[gorira]

Miscalculated my actual ass.

[ But at least she's alright. Last thing we need is a body announcement because someone hacked up a lung. Death by fucking raspberry.

What a fucking way to go. ]

But regardless, you proved your point. If it means you won't choke, I could be convinced, to sing along with you. Maybe.

[destage]

Language, Chitoge-san.

[That's sniped between another sip of tea, but...

That? That actually gets her eyes to light up--and practically sparkle, too.]

You'd...you'd really consider it? Really really?

[gorira]

What are you, Fern? Getting on my case about the way I talk...everyone in New York talks like this, y'know.

And I won't make a promise, but, like I said. I could be convinced. If you pick out a good song, and you can bear with my nails on a chalkboard screeching.

[destage]

Well, the collective of New York needs to get a bar of soap shoved in their mouths.

[Huff!! Fern is a good influence, you butt.]

I'll have to see if I can think of anything, but mark my words! I'll find something that we can sing together!
