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?

[Sayaka's never exactly been good at sitting idle; it's why she's in the sewing room for a good portion of the day. She's complained a little bit about how this stuff looks like it belongs in a museum, but she's got fabric, she's got ribbons, and both are as bright pink as they can get. Of course, she's...kind of got no idea how to use this shit. She's trying, at least, but it's looking all sorts of wrinkled and sewn together in weird places.

...And it's, uh. Well. She may have forgotten to cut the fabric, so she's got pretty much the entire bolt being used here. She's not exactly bright, but she is going very...determinedly in some direction, let's put it at that.

Of course, she's gonna be in the dining room eating at various points in the day. But her primary priority seems to be playing around with that small makeup kit she got from the machine--she's pretty determinedly messing around with it, though she does keep her eye out for any of the girls...or really, anyone who looks like they might need a touch up. If she happens to see them? She'll wave them on over.]

Hi there! I don't suppose I could borrow you for a couple minutes?

[It'll be fun, she promises.

Of course, like almost always? Come the evening, Sayaka will be in the Ballroom, practicing her singing...though this time, it looks like she's attempting to practice one of her routines as well. It's a little more subdued than her usual dancing fare, probably due to. You know. Consciousness about trying not to fall down the steps. But she's energetic, and it comes out while she practices.]

dining room

[evilfrenzy]

[Sayaka has netted one (1) Rideaux.]

Hello, Maizono. [He notes that Sayaka seems to be in higher spirits today. What she said at the meeting in regard to her dream... Yikes. Anyway:] Sure. What it is?

[...but then he notices the makeup as soon as he asks that.]

Oh? What's this, now? Did that come out of the machine?

[destage]

[issues that will be tiptoed over like the diddly darn plague today: that.

Never the less, Sayaka practically grins when he seems to realize what she's going for.]

You bet! Honestly, I was just as surprised to see this as I was with...at least half of the stuff in there, but this? This has gotta be one of the best things I got from there.

[In any case, though, Sayaka clasps her hands in front of her.]

I don't suppose you'd like to borrow it for a bit? Or, maybe I could give you a bit of a makeover? It doesn't matter either way to me, but it'd just be rude to keep this for myself.

[evilfrenzy]

[Who wants to talk about issues when you can have makeup fun time.

Something that Sayaka suggested seems to make him smirk.]

You want to give me a makeover?

[The inflection in that is a bit difficult to grasp. Is he offended? Surprised? Amused? Who even knows.]

[destage]

[...that inflection is definitely a bit confusing, and while she keeps her smile up, her tone has some worry to it.]

Only if you'd like! I've been doing my own, so I thought it'd only be right to offer to anyone...and it'd be fun to do it for someone else. But you know how to do it, I know, so...

[She is not sure if she offended or not...!]

ballroom

[matchbreaker]

[ In the ballroom...

... Well, I mean, Elda has super silent footsteps? so when she notices that Sayaka is making some effort, she decides not to interrupt it, and furthermore sort of insists on the idea of ... you know, not showing herself? So the vampire woman sort of skulks into the shadows as best she can to watch and get quietly towards the stage.

... Watching the show. ]

[destage]

[Thankfully, Sayaka seems to be supremely distracted by her song--it's a bit of a simple thing, though Sayaka puts her heart into it like she's in a crowd. She doesn't like the idea of doing anything half assed, even if she's attempting some restraint.

She doesn't notice Elda coming up at all, but she seems to be settling into the end of the song well enough. Just a little bit longer, and she'll be done!]

[matchbreaker]

[ How flashy. Still, she is putting her heart into it... the vampire decides not to interrupt, to simply allow the girl to finish the whole performance. She nods to herself, deciding that yes, that choice is best.

... It's interesting, to compare this with what she's implied about the business.

What's what she likes, what's her duty? It's something she ponders before it finishes. ]

[destage]

[When she's finally finished, on impulse, Sayaka takes a bow--she's so used to the crowds in front of her, that she just knows what to do. It's probably a little unusual, but no one's here to see it. She can indulge her head with the idea that she's just gotten to stand in front of a crowd of thousands.

She'll take a breather, though, after a few moments--she never usually gets that chance, so it's honestly...kind of nice.]

Phew...I could've definitely done better, though. I was so off step in the middle, wasn't I? That must've looked awful.

Dining Room

[chessturner]

Yes? What is it?

[Kyrie was just passing by, going to the kitchen, but hey, she's doing nothing important so may as well see what Sayaka wants]

[destage]

[Sayaka beams a bit--even if she's a little more apprehensive about asking Kyrie about this, but...]

Do you wear makeup by any chance, Ushiromiya-san?

[chessturner]

I do. Why do you ask...?

[Oh. Is that a make-up kit? So that's what you're planning...]

I think I see now.

[destage]

[Ack--! She's been found out so quickly, oh no...]

O-only if you don't mind, of course! I wouldn't want to impose, that'd just be incredibly rude...

dining room

[hesperos]

Sure, it isn't like I have anything else better to do.

[ He has a good amount of time on his hands. How bad can it be anyway? ]

[destage]

Ah, you're Lowell-san, right? It's nice to meet you properly.

[Sayaka beams a bit, though...she pauses in consideration, looking at his face for a couple moments. He probably wouldn't look bad at all with a makeover...]

Do you wear makeup, by any chance?

[hesperos]

Yeah, nice to meet you.

[ This is the second time in the same week he's been called by his last name--eh he decides to leave it this time. ]

I don't wear makeup. Why're you asking?

[ Yuri in makeup would be hilarious, but anyway. ]

[destage]

[...she's a little more hesitant to ask when he says that, but you know what.]

Well...I thought it'd be a fun idea to ask around and see if anyone needed any help with theirs, since it doesn't seem to be something we all have access to. Maybe give them a little makeover for the fun of it.

Would it be something you'd like to try?

[She definitely won't press further if he says no, but he definitely would rock it...]

Sewing room

[heritrix]

[Rin doesn't actually notice Sayaka at first when she enters the room, glancing at the nearest counter before her eyes land on the sewing machines.]

Ahh! [There's stars in her eyes and a bright smile on her face as she bounces towards the first machine in front of her, hands hovering over the crank.] How beautiful! I wasn't expecting vintage models.

[destage]

[...Rin, you act like this is an achievement of some kind...]

This place seems to be one of the few with anything vintage--you recognize these, then? Have you ever used them before?

[...there may be a muffled help me somewhere in that tone.]

[heritrix]

[It absolutely is though?? Every time there's a new room with an interior like this, it takes Rin about five minutes to remember that wait no, they've been kidnapped and dragged into a murder game and that's kind of fucked up, because. Look at the antiques and pretty decor, guys, someone has taste.]

Oh, Maizono-san! [Rin laughs awkwardly, brushing her hair back over her shoulder.] Sorry, I got excited. It's not the same model, but I have a sewing machine similar to these back at home, yes. Are you having trouble using them?

[destage]

[Rin, honey, your priorities...]

No, don't worry about it. They are rather impressive--I admit I was expecting something a bit more modern, but these seem like they'll get the job done.

[...that last question gets her to look at the mangled mesh of fabric and ribbon in front of her, that's...attempting to pass as something, but just looks like a complete mess.

...and also it. Didn't seem to occur to Sayaka to cut the fabric off, so it's kind of. Looking really, really dumb.]

I...um...I'd love some help, actually, because I don't think I've got a single clue what I'm doing here.

dining hall

[sleepytimegal]

[ Alex, gently pointing at herself, head tilted to the side. ]

Uhhhh sure, what's up?

[destage]

[ALEX, HER GIRL, Sayaka just has the brightest expression humanly possible on her face.]

So! Do you happen to wear makeup, by any chance, Alex-san?

[...she got a glint in her eye, oh no.]

[sleepytimegal]

[ oh no??? ]

Nnnot really... My hair keeps me busy enough.

[destage]

[Ohhhhh, she is beaming.]

I don't suppose you'd like a chance to change that? I just so happened to get a nice little kit from the vending machine, and I've been looking for someone to test on a bit...

[DO YOU WANNA BE A GUINEA PIG, ALEX]
