WEEK 2.

[trustharder]

WEEK 2 Two people are gone from the group. Zagi and Kamui are dead, twenty-five of you are still alive, and the first week in the Vault comes to a close. Saturday is given to regrouping and sleep; on Sunday morning, those klaxons are as annoying as ever but at the very least there aren't any bodies to be found. It can be assumed, perhaps, that you're safe for now. The night before wasn't necessarily a peaceful one, however; you'll probably feel a bit groggy when you wake up, and it seems you've regained something that you didn't realize you'd lost... However, those weird dreams aren't the only new thing around here; one of the previously closed-off section near the vending machine has opened up, revealing a spiral staircase leading up to the next floor. Go ahead and explore as much as you like; consider it your reward for a job well done. SURVIVORS REMAINING: 25

SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY

Laundry Room

[cherryblooded]

[When Cherryblod enters, he's carrying his normal suit in his arms - but fear not, he's wearing his jumpsuit today. No crossdressing panic here.]

Good morning.

[He seems alright, alright as anyone can be in the circumstances.]

[garudynamic]

Mornin'

[He looks up, managing a sheepish smile. There's suds in his hair]

Sorry for the mess. I'm almost done, so you can use the sinks.

[His pants and jacket are already hanging, and he's working on his shirt.... but oh, the water is a little.... orange.]

[cherryblooded]

Your shirt is bleeding, so I think I'll wait.

[He's rather not stain any of his own clothes.

-hopefully Yosuke doesn't take that literally.]

[garudynamic]

[Thankfully he doesn't. But he does look down and curse, scooping the shirt out of the water and rushing to the sink to rinse it out. The white logo doesn't seem to be too bad... maybe a little more peach colored then it once was]

Damn it...

[cherryblooded]

It's not that bad? It looks-

[What's complimentary to say here. Hm.]

It could be worse.

[garudynamic]

[He leaves the water running over the shirt, moving to the basin and pouring it out... and fishing his socks out of the water. At least they now match the peach on his shirt]

...not like I was winning any fashion shows in here anyways...

[cherryblooded]

It's fine. We have other things to worry about, and you're still better dressed than anyone in a jumpsuit.

[Though this is coming from Cherry-"what's wrong with wearing a dress"-blod. So, you know. Grain of salt.]

[garudynamic]

[He snorts, but seems pleased regardless. Time to hang his poor shirt and pull his arms back into the jumpsuit]

I have way nicer stuff back home.

[cherryblooded]

Probably for the best you're not showing everyone else up.

[Teasing.]

[garudynamic]

[he waves his hand dramatically]

Seriously, I don't wanna cause a scene when someone can't stand it anymore.

[cherryblooded]

[That gets a chuckle, and then...]

I have something to return to you, by the way.

[garudynamic]

Return?

[Did he drop something?]

[cherryblooded]

From the vending machine.

[One sec, they're in his folded up suit - not wrinkled or anything. He fishes out two photos of Yosuke and people Cherryblod doesn't recognize.]

[garudynamic]

[The first one is a little weird: he doesn't remember taking it, but it looks normal enough.

It's the second one that makes his eyes go wide. He's never had that haircut. He's never owned that outfit. Is that Yu's weird friend Marie? WHY IS KANJI'S HAIR NOT BLEACHED?! WHEN DID CHIE HAVE TIME TO GROW HER HAIR OUT!?

He flounders, one hand behind him to find one of the stools, sitting in it hard]

What the hell is this...?

[cherryblooded]

[Well, um, that could have gone better. Cherryblod hovers uncertainly.]

Do you not remember taking those...?

[garudynamic]

[He shakes his head silently]

[cherryblooded]

[Well alright then.]

There's a theory that we're missing some memories...

[garudynamic]

That... would mean I grew out my hair again.

[It's not THAT much longer now then it is in the pic, but it's certainly noticeable]

[cherryblooded]

Your age on the profiles is one of the ones that are wrong, isn't it?

[garudynamic]

Yeah... by at least 7 months. That's probably long enough for my hair to grow back out or my friends to change their looks...

[cherryblooded]

Probably.

[...Well, this is definitely a shock, and he's a bit at a loss. He hasn't really gone through this himself.]

Is there anything I can...?

[garudynamic]

Sorry... I was hoping I could show you what everyone looks like but... I think I just need a little bit.

[cherryblooded]

I understand. If you need me, I'll be around.

[Not like there's a lot of places to be, in a bunker this small.]

[garudynamic]

Thanks, Cherryblod.

[He holds the photos to his chest, as if even though they shook his world they are still utterly precious, and wanders off in a daze]
