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!]

[Shows what you know, Mikoto, Rin can apparently hide short swords in her miniskirt if the Fate route is anything to go by. The miniskirt is hammerspace.]

Well, you know. Various things. A guy wouldn't get it.

[paralogical]

[ What kind of short sword is shorter than her miniskirt anyway. But, ah, okay. Girl shit. ]

Most people would get it when you put it like that. [ He still doesn't see the point when they're locked in a building but whatever. ]

[heritrix]

[THAT'S THE JOKE, MANDEE, THERE SHOULDN'T BE ENOUGH MATERIAL TO COVER THE SWORD.]

Well, then there you have it. I guess you don't need to ask anymore~

[paralogical]

[ What if she reverse Wonder Woman'd it!! Also, Rin, what. Acting smug is so weirdly suspicious. Steadying a look on her before marginally lifting his shoulders. ]

Guess not. [ Moving on, he gestures to the sewing machine. ] Hm. So you know how to use that thing?

[heritrix]

[It is... a glare, coming from her... But it's going to relent some now as they switch subjects, relaxing.]

Yeah. [There's a pleasant look on her face as she regards the sewing machine, brushing a lock of hair over her shoulder.] It and the model I own at home work in about the same way.

[By which she means it's also ancient as fuck, why do these sewing machines look like they came out of the stone age.]

[paralogical]

[ Because new sewing machines are a myth. Or less sturdy than the old models. Also, okay, he looks between her and the machine again. Somewhat expectantly, mostly like there's something he wants to say but doesn't know how to.

After a while of that, he moves around her to get a better look at what she's doing. ]

How hard is it to use?

[heritrix]

[Does he need help or something? Rin's getting that impression.]

They're not as tricky as everyone makes them out to be, honestly.

[Scooting up in her chair again, Rin gets the skirt she was working on back under the machine to just show him what she means directly.]

You just place your spool of thread here [she indicates where hers is now, on top of the very obvious metal rod that sticks up out of all of these] and loop it through these. Then once everything's put together, all you have to do is turn the crank to control the needle.

[Like so! The crank's function is what the foot pedals are used for with modern day machines. And then obviously you just use your free hand to guide the fabric.]

[paralogical]

[ He absolutely needs all the help, or for Rin to outright fix the shirt he wants fixed (spoilers: it's unfixable).

But okay, hm. He moves in closer and—it... sounds simple? Too simple. ] That's it?

[heritrix]

That's it. [There's no fancy stitches with these machines because the basics are fine!!] Oh, and don't turn the crank in the opposite direction; it'll be messy. But it's really not as hard as everyone seems to think it is.

[paralogical]

[ Now he's tempted to do it to see what will happen. He even considers grabbing the crank and doing it right now but, eh, nah. He won't potentially fuck up what she's doing.

After a short pause: ] Thanks for showing me. [ And he does mean this! ]

[heritrix]

[Smart man, Mikoto. Smart man...]

It was no problem. [She'll get back to what she was working on now, while still chatting at him.] Were you thinking of mending something?
