Week 7.

[trustfellows]

WEEK 7 Orihime Inoue, Estellise Sidos Heurassein, and Kirei Kotomine all died this past week. One of your Coordinators died as well, leaving you with a new face but still no end to this. Several of you are finding yourselves at a crossroads: either keep moving forward, or accept the inevitability of fate. It's your own choice, your own decision; no one's going to make it for you. Over half of you are gone now. 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... Once again, a new floor has been opened to you; unfortunately, either this is a particularly strange reward or Jericho is starting to get downright sarcastic. Perhaps there's something in it for you despite the setup; who knows, though there's really only one way to find out. PARTICIPANTS REMAINING: 16

SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY
[OOC: Welcome to week seven 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 Hilda!]

...It honestly wouldn't surprise me. He was able to get Alena-san's sister over here so quickly, after all--it wouldn't surprise me if he had an endless amount of people here, ready and willing to run another one of these.

[It's...horrible, honestly.]

I'd certainly hope he'd be distracted, but...it might be too much to hope for. Maybe, though...just maybe.

[destage]

I think we could try to remember what colors that people seemed to favor, for picking out flowers...it's not like we can really ask them what they'd think, but they come in all sorts of different ones. We'll find something for everyone, okay?

[Sayaka beams a bit at that. She's certain they will, after all.]

[destage]

Oh, so it was...more how you were raised, than anything.

[...She will not make a comment about the Yakuza out of respect, honestly, there are things you do not fuck with or comment about and that is one of them.]

I apologize for the assumption. It was a bit crass to do so, but...I've always found that a bit of an admirable trait in you. It's actually quite wonderful, even if I imagine that was an incredibly stressful life to lead.

[heritrix]

[Well, it wasn't even that, but she doesn't want to give herself away more than necessary, depending on how much or little he's guessed.]

If you stopped by to insult me, you needn't bother. I know more than anyone still alive in this building exactly how reckless it was.

[destage]

[...Sayaka can't help but minorly feel like these are two totally different things being talked about. But...huh. It's interesting to hear about?]

...Huh. Perhaps this is the difference between your world and Kimblee-san's? Kimblee-san explained alchemy as...something you need to have a very good understanding of everything you incorporate into the array itself, how everything interconnects, and incredible control over the process...

[Sayaka looks at Luca's circle with intrigue, though.]

So, this...this sounds like it's much closer to traditional magic. The channeling of one's will in order to bypass certain needs...it sounds absolutely incredible, in truth. I wonder, though, would the flowers live very long if there's no dirt or water to supply them? I imagine those would have to come in at some point, but...

[It's a lot to process? It's a lot to process, but Sayaka seems to smile.]

I-I hope I don't like I'm brushing it off, or anything! It's actually quite incredible, in truth, even if I'm not sure what a Sfeer is...but I think I can guess what fasteners are...?

[chessturner]

Oh? Would you reject a homemade breakfast from yours truly? I promise you it's not poisoned -- too many witnesses have seen me cooking.

[Is it really a good thing she feels comfortable joking about this with Rideaux? Maybe not]

[chessturner]

[I choose to believe Kyrie has one of those large and colorful tattoos yakuzas have on their backs]

Why, thank you. To be frank, it wasn't as bad as it sounds. True, it wasn't an easy life, but everything turned out quite well.

[...because she pushed all responsibilities onto her younger sister and got away from the family with their approval. That sister never got over this jerkass move]

[bloodbiter]

No, you don't understand.

[She sucks in a breath, trying to steel herself. She can't, she...]

It was too late to save her, but with what I found, it won't be too late to save other people. What happened to her has happened to hundreds of thousands of people before we were even born, and now... It wasn't impressive or difficult, I just kept getting incredibly lucky, but that doesn't change the fact that everyone is going to look at me like I'm a hero, and I can't - I can't let them down. Not the way I let her down.

library

[didntgetdadslooks]

[ Angel is also in here, just kind of... low-key baffled about this business. ]

This sure is... something, huh?

foyer

[didntgetdadslooks]

I... don't exactly have a lot of it to style, but if you think you can do something new with it.

[sleepytimegal]

...Gh-ghosts.

[ Alex's voice is a stammer. Is. Is she talking about--? ]

foyer

[sleepytimegal]

[ ...Oh, hi, Rin, that's... ]

...Hair styling? ...Sure, sign me the heck up, why not?

kitchen

[sleepytimegal]

[ ...Oh, hey. That's a lot of cooking. ]

What's the occasion? Something got you...perky?

[hesperos]

[ He'd fudge something up in a heartbeat. ]

Oh yeah, you're a Technician.

[ He stretches. Then he kicks over one of the chairs that haven't been knocked over. ]

So, did you like having a job like that back home?

[hesperos]

Hey, that's good. Let's keep that up, then.

[ ... ]

Sounds like a perfectly believable story to me.

[ ... Yuri please. ]

[hesperos]

Yeah.

[ He's a late sleeper. ]

Why're you asking?

[ He figures she's going somewhere with this. ]

[bloodisthicker]

Even if there's a chance I might regret this... yes. Go ahead.

[His hair's down, so she doesn't even have to sort through the three ponytails!]

[hesperos]

Yeah, let's do that.

[ ...He'll snort, though. ]

If we get a greenhouse.

[bloodisthicker]

Well...

[...honestly, these things are kind of janky as hell, but.]

I wouldn't sell these, but I think they work in a pinch. After all, cats are very selectively picky.

[destage]

...It sounds like it, if you're able to lead the life you do now.

[One that she did sound genuinely happy about, if Sayaka can be honest.]

You're living proof that the future can be bright for anyone, as long as you set your mind to something and keep a sharp mind.

[destage]

[Hey there, Angel, Sayaka raises a hand in greeting.]

Yeah, this sure is a waste of perfectly good space we can't use. Seriously, what were they thinking?

[destage]

Hey, you! No particular occasion...I honestly just wanted to, you know?

[It's not entirely a lie? But if anything, she seems more at peace with what's happened than anything.]

I'll be honest, I got kind of bored but...I don't know. I'm still here, and I feel like I should do some more around here, you know?

[hesperos]

They are.

[ Sure, he's not the cat whisperer or anything, but... ]

Well, if you're lucky maybe it'll be the cat's meow, huh?

[notaccurate]

Not at all. I would rather be the scholar making the messes that need to be cleaned up.

[didntgetdadslooks]

I have no idea. Maybe these are Jericho's or something?
