WEEK 3.

[trustfellows]

WEEK 3 You all got to witness Yosuke Hanamura's death earlier this past week. You know what the punishment for breaking the rules is. With Chitoge Kirisaki and Blue's deaths, you're painfully aware of just how little trust this group really has. How long until someone kills again? What about that time limit the Coordinators imposed? Will there be another incentive? There are so many questions, but not a whole lot of answers. 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... And when you wake up, you'll discover that a pattern seems to be emerging, at least as far as the building itself goes; a new floor is available to you, a stairwell across a short hallway from the one on the second floor having unlocked itself. There's not too much of a question about it as a result - at least, as far as what it means. It's definitely a reward. PARTICIPANTS REMAINING: 30

SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY
[OOC: Welcome to week three of Trustfell! Feel free to make as many top levels as you'd like and tag out to other characters! This post is for all of your interactions this week... at least until the weekend. Don't forget to save those threads for coins and the activity check!

If you'd like to get in contact with the Coordinators, you can do so through private meetings with Alena!]

[Rideaux is not in a good mood when he exits his room this morning. Another weirdly vivid dream, and another unnecessary reminder of exactly why Julius is #1 on his profile's dislikes.

He grumbles his way through making breakfast in the kitchen, scrambling his eggs like he has some kind of grudge against them and putting more sugary additives into his coffee than is necessary. He can be found in the dining hall afterword, but the vibe he's giving off is...definitely more unapproachable than usual, so tread carefully.

Anyone checking for changes on the second floor later in the morning can find Rideaux in the infirmary, doing his daily routine there of organizing the cabinets and checking inventory. He doesn't seem to have cooled off any though. The hell is up his ass today?

Finally, he checks out the new floor. He initially stops at the staircase leading to it, once again thinking of his conversation with Sayaka about new floors being some sort of reward. Since this has now happened for a second time, he can't help but meet the floor with a slight scowl. Even more-so when he reaches the bar. It's both a welcome sight and a source of annoyance, because they "earned" this by being forced to play along.

...this fact does not stop Rideaux from making himself a drink and settling down at the counter to begrudgingly drink his reward. He did kind of need this.

He'll be there for a little while, but eventually he and his drink move on as he continues his investigation of the new floor. The game room isn't of much interest, but he actually does end up settling in the billiards hall for a good chunk of the rest of the day. He's occupying one of the dart boards, launching darts at it with great enthusiasm. Surprisingly, he's a very good shot. He's hitting a lot of bullseyes or at least around the bullseye. Despite how skillful his throws are though, the way he's playing gives off the impression that he's letting off a lot of steam.

He's content to do this alone for a while, but this activity finally gets him to settle down. So later on may be up for a bit of friendly competition.]

Billiards Hall

[destage]

[It's a little later in the day that Sayaka comes on by--she's mostly been doing her own thing and examining the rooms a bit, and this is the last one she stops by to check out. She's not surprised by anyone being in there, admittedly, but...

...Huh. He's actually a pretty good shot with the darts. That's not something she expected. Still, she'll...knock on the door first, out of politeness before entering.]

You've had a lot of practice with this, right? If this were a game, you'd probably be ahead of everyone else by a landslide.

[...she's just gonna go over and check some other stuff out, admittedly, but it's an observation if nothing else.]

[evilfrenzy]

[Rideaux glances toward the door when Sayaka knocks, having just finished throwing one of the darts. He's feeling a little better now, so his response is more on the subdued side rather than curt like it might've been earlier.]

You could say that. It's an activity that I like to partake in every now and then. Keep my accuracy up. [Technically not wrong.] How thoughtful of the Coordinators to provide it here.

[destage]

Ah, so this is a hobby of yours, then. That makes sense. It's good to keep up other hobbies alongside your work.

[Maybe she should take her own goddamn advice--I mean.

Well, never the less, Sayaka doesn't go over to him or anything--she's gonna look around the room a bit, just kind of giving it a general scan...]

This room is kind of interesting, compared to the other ones we've found. I'd say that goes for this whole floor, honestly--I wouldn't have expected a school to have these sort of places.

[evilfrenzy]

Well, certainly. Working two jobs, I'd like to have something to spend my precious downtime on. Fashion is but one of a few, as you've discovered.

[Funnily enough, his other main one is also available on this floor.]

You're right, though. When we spoke about what sort of rooms may appear, I really was expecting classrooms at some point. A bar is about the furthest from an actual thing you'd find in a school.

[destage]

[Rideaux, no...]

Yeah, that's what I was thinking too. It could easily be explained by the Coordinators refitting the room as needed for some of this stuff, but...it'd probably take a lot of time to fit those lever things in. And considering what they've said already, it's...

[...hrm. This isn't really something she's wanted to focus on, but...]

...It's kind of concerning that they've mentioned more than one 'Dexterous', you know? It makes me wonder how long this building has actually been around for, and why nobody's noticed anything yet.

bar

[hesperos]

[ Yuri slips down into the bar himself because he needs to check the place out too and what better time than now? ]

You know, I didn't think they'd actually have a bar hidden around here somewhere.

[evilfrenzy]

[Oh, hello Yuri. He'll be met with a little less resistance from Rideaux than he might give to other people. Though he's still quiet as he takes a sip of his drink and chooses his words.]

I can't say I've seen very many schools with a bar, no. But they do have a pretty decent stock.

[hesperos]

[ Well, it helps make him decide to sit down nearby him, at any rate. He's made sure to grab and pour himself a drink before he does, of course.

He's looking into it, a few thoughts on his mind. ]

Yeah, it doesn't look like they'll have any problems with running out, even if people decided to drink however much they wanted.

[ ... ]

...You know, it doesn't really feel like we've already been here for three weeks.

[evilfrenzy]

That would be one of the few things that I would not mind. I am happy to make this part of my routine once more.

[As awful as it is to have a routine in a murderschool.]

I do agree with you there... Even with the clock to help track mornings and nights, the lack of an actual calendar makes tracking the exact days a bit more cumbersome.

[hesperos]

You frequented a bar before, huh?

[ He's definitely been to quite a few himself, but for some reason he never imagined Rideaux ever went to one regularly. Maybe it was just the clothes. ]

And yeah, pretty much. It doesn't help that there's practically no windows in this place.

[ Which is kinda creepy, but probably par for the course now, considering what's happened. ]

bar

[sleepytimegal]

[ Sometimes you just need a drink- ohhhh that is an adult isn't it ooooops.

Alex walks into the bar and then just kind of freezes and tries to look nonchalant. ]

Heeello, doc.

[evilfrenzy]

[Fortunately, Rideaux actually happens to be one of the adults who really doesn't care what the teens are doing in here. Despite...being a doctor...]

Hello, Alex.

[He's regarding her with a raised eyebrow, sipping his drink at the same time. She's acting like she's been caught red-handed or something...]

[sleepytimegal]

[ What should she say... ]

I was, uh...just looking around. You know. New place, new floor, new...mysteries. This is...a bar, right? It's a bar?

[ #youtried ]

[evilfrenzy]

[Uh...huh.]

Well, obviously? A bit strange to find one in a school, but yes. It's obviously a bar.

Billiards hall

[heritrix]

[Rin's another among those checking out the new rooms today. Board games on one side, and darts and billiards on the other, huh...? Hearing the study thwack, thwack coming from the dartboard over there, Rin glances Rideaux's way and gives him a polite golf clap.]

Nice skill. Are you sure you're a Doctor and not an Archer?

[evilfrenzy]

[Taking notice of Rin's applause, Rideaux gives a small but dramatic bow.]

Thank you. [He smirks a bit as he takes aim again.] I assure you that my skill as a doctor is in top form, but I do like to partake in honing my accuracy. Just a little something to do on the side.

[heritrix]

Precision is a valuable skill to have as a doctor, so in this case it seems your hobby and profession compliment one another.

[She'll be quiet to let him concentrate.]

[evilfrenzy]

Oh, certainly. Surgery is no simple task.

[With a quick toss, another close hit to the center.]

Though I tend to use healing artes more often, I like to make sure I can always treat serious injuries manually.

dining hall

[captainobnoxious]

[Sigrun has Never cared about reading a room. Well, she has, but it's more that she chooses to tread anyway, so she'll plop down near him with some bread and butter. Just a whole loaf of tearable bread and the butter.]

Bad night?

[She, on the other hand, seems better than she has the past two weeks.]

[evilfrenzy]

[Sigrun will receive a look of contempt for her choice to tread, but honestly? It's Rideaux's own fault for eating in here, rather than his private room.

...also okay, he's definitely judging the food savagery going on near him too.]

What do you think?

[He sounds annoyed that she figured that so easily. Which again, is his own fault!]

[captainobnoxious]

[JUDGE ALL YOU WANT IT IS A BREAKFAST.]

No need to get so huffy, Riddles! That just means the day can only get better from now on.

[evilfrenzy]

I really don't think you can claim that in a place like this.

[........ALSO.]

Would it kill you to just use my name?

infirmary

[explosivecombat]

[...Good lord, Rideaux, what crawled up your ass and died.

Kimblee will watch what he's doing, just to see if he's going to get his head ripped off for commenting; after a while he just seems to employ the 'fuck it" principle and speaks anyway, his voice as even as ever.]

Having a rough morning...?

[evilfrenzy]

[Kimblee, have you ever had a "oh, this fucking guy" sort of person in your life...

Rideaux's anger is the calmly seething sort, so thankfully Kimblee won't get his head ripped off or anything like that. But he absolutely has to take a deep breath before facing Kimblee with a professional response.]

Unfortunately, yes. I...experienced another rather vivid dream last night, and it wasn't pleasant.
