WEEK 5.

WEEK 5

Tabitha Smith, Sigrun Eide, and Solf J Kimblee are all dead. Regardless of what you think of the trial or the events leading up to it, there's no denying that you can feel the dent in your numbers now. After all, ten people are gone now.

It may be hard, but all you can do is keep going.

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...

What with Jericho's excitement at the last trial, it's evident now more than ever that the new floor that's opened up to you is a gift, a reward for a job well-done. Because while surviving is something that you'll continue to try to do of your own merit...well.

Let's say that he's so, so very proud of you.

Art Studio

[Susan likes to keep her word, when she can, so she migrates up to the art studio after the meeting has concluded. And of course, here's Sayaka.

She could point out that Jericho would likely take all of this away from them, if it came to it. That this is probably just more of what he considers "cute". God, she's never wanted to kill a man more.]


...yeah. Writing stuff down's gonna be important too, if it comes to that. [She ducks into the storage for a moment to grab some supplies, raising her voice a tad to still be heard.] Maybe make a couple copies.

[Susan! There's someone she's at least happy to see--Sayaka nods her head.]

Yeah, I'm...trying to go into as much detail as I can. There's a lot of things that I'd need to inform myself of if something is to happen, so I'll probably need to go over these for the next...day or so. And find some good hiding places for them.

[...Mmph.]

...This is probably one of the scarier prospects that they've brought up, honestly.

They're threatening to change who we are. Just like that. Are we really the same people if chunks of our experiences are just gone?

[It's not at all the same, she thinks, as the other memories they've lost. That's chronological; she's basically the same as she was before whatever she can't remember happened. Her past isn't just riddled with holes.

She comes back out and sits near Sayaka to start on something herself.]


It makes me wonder why he brought us here. More, I guess.
destage: (CONCERN ♡ This might be bad...)

[personal profile] destage 2017-10-11 05:34 pm (UTC)(link)
No. We...I don't think we are, not at all. That's just the way life works--that we're built by the experiences we have. Without those building blocks in our lives, we're basically hollow.

[says the person with little to no life experience herself

Sayaka does admittedly peer up a bit to see what Susan's got going on, before going back to writing a bit. The page she's on has plenty of recognizable names, though at least one or two who aren't.]


...I'm not sure. It's kind of a conundrum, isn't it? Along with everything else here.
ninehundredlives: ([ got to flee ])

[personal profile] ninehundredlives 2017-10-11 06:49 pm (UTC)(link)
[Not much, yet. Looks like she's starting on a person, but you know.]

Alena told me Jericho chose each of us for some specific reason. But if not who we are, then what is it? I'm sure he wouldn't risk just getting rid of whatever made us interesting to him.
destage: (AVERT ♡ I guess that's okay)

[personal profile] destage 2017-10-11 07:07 pm (UTC)(link)
[She'll probably peer up every now and then, but...hmm.]

...I have an idea, but...that's just based off the stuff I've seen in my memories. I'm not exactly sure how much of a stretch it would be to say these are taking place anywhere else, but...

Do you think we might have that in common? Do you have any memories of that?
ninehundredlives: ([ it's just the end of the world ])

[personal profile] ninehundredlives 2017-10-12 12:51 am (UTC)(link)
Not that in particular, but there's been a few murder dungeons in general. I wouldn't be all that shocked...
destage: (UH ♡ I have SEVERAL questions)

[personal profile] destage 2017-10-12 01:15 am (UTC)(link)
[...there is a practically audible record scratch.]

...Uh...I'm...guessing I don't really want to ask? [Like it's probably none of her business, but.] That sounds absolutely awful, Ashworth-san...
ninehundredlives: ([ it's just the end of the world ])

[personal profile] ninehundredlives 2017-10-12 01:32 am (UTC)(link)
[She told you she remembered dying a few weeks back. Who dies of natural causes, tbh]

Yeah...well, I did get out of those ones.
destage: (Default)

[personal profile] destage 2017-10-12 03:24 am (UTC)(link)
[...ah. That...hrm.]

That's good to hear, at least. It must mean that something like this could...still possibly be escapable.

[She hopes. She really, really hopes.]
ninehundredlives: ([ it's all in your head ])

[personal profile] ninehundredlives 2017-10-12 04:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah. Maybe sooner or later, they'll slip up, and we'll have an opening.
destage: (AVERT ♡ I guess that's okay)

[personal profile] destage 2017-10-12 05:06 pm (UTC)(link)
...I hope it's soon. This is getting really hard to keep positive about.

[...That sure is honest.]

I know it's to be expected at this point, but even so...despair is what'll kill us before anyone else tries, I think.
ninehundredlives: ([ wookie noise ])

[personal profile] ninehundredlives 2017-10-13 01:09 am (UTC)(link)
...yeah. You're right. Maybe we'll just need to rely on spite instead of hope, after all.
destage: (NEUTRAL ♡ Well I'm listening)

[personal profile] destage 2017-10-13 01:19 am (UTC)(link)
It seems to be our best bet. Live out of the spite Jericho-san feels for our continued existence, and just use it to keep going. It's not the best fuel, but...well, we're not in the best place. It's best to take what one can get.
ninehundredlives: ([ the lamb ])

[personal profile] ninehundredlives 2017-10-13 01:50 am (UTC)(link)
He's such a condescending ass, isn't he?

[But Sayaka isn't one of her usual Salt Buddies]

Whatever it takes, I guess. We can't all just lose our minds in here, or let somebody get away with murder.
destage: (SERIOUS ♡ Okay so maybe I'm screwed up)

[personal profile] destage 2017-10-13 02:01 am (UTC)(link)
He really is kind of an a-- [EHEM stopping herself there.] a pain in the rear, yes.

Yeah, though...if we let ourselves fall that far, someone's gonna wind up winning.

[...She takes another peer at what Susan's drawing, idly, just kind of stopping her writing for a moment.]

Or...well, all of us could end up like that, if no one decides to act. It'd be about...200 hours, if I've got it right.
ninehundredlives: ([ and you're not coming ])

[personal profile] ninehundredlives 2017-10-13 02:04 am (UTC)(link)
I wonder if they'd really just keep going.

[It's Elda!]

It seems like a waste, after they were so set on this murder thing. Not that I really want to test it, either.
destage: (SMILE ♡ Like nothing's wrong)

[personal profile] destage 2017-10-13 02:25 am (UTC)(link)
It was unintentionally tested last time. I don't think anyone is gonna want a repeat of that.

[Of course, she could be wrong. Someone could want just that to happen.

...Still, Sayaka does smile a bit at the portrait.]


That's a really good portrait of Elda-san. You really weren't lying about your skill.
ninehundredlives: ([ the crow ])

[personal profile] ninehundredlives 2017-10-13 03:50 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, good. It's yours, when I'm done with it. I assumed you would want one of her...
destage: (HOPE ♡ I'm not alone anymore)

[personal profile] destage 2017-10-13 03:54 am (UTC)(link)
...Wait, really?

[...That...gets her to pause a bit, but--she remembers, she just figured that she--]

...I can't believe I almost forgot. That's...almost ironic. [...Her voice seems a little strained and she's staring away.] Thank you, Ashworth-san, I...I really appreciate it, you know?
ninehundredlives: ([ alone soaked in rain ])

[personal profile] ninehundredlives 2017-10-16 12:01 am (UTC)(link)
.....yeah. Of course.

[oh god EMOTION? She's just going to quietly not acknowledge all of that for the moment.]

I hope it can help, if anything happens. Of course she'd still be there, but the fact that you'd have a picture of her... [you keep those of people you care about]
