Week 9.

[trustharder]

WEEK 9 For the first time since your stay in the Vault began, no one died this week. That doesn't mean there weren't casualties among you, however – namely, trust, interpersonal relationships, and comfort in the group dynamic as a whole. Hopefully no one else pays the price for it. Saturday is given to regrouping and sleep; there aren't any bodies to be found on Sunday morning. You're safe for now – unless your dreams have told you otherwise... SURVIVORS REMAINING: 10

SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY
[OOC: Welcome to week nine of Trustfell! Save your threads for coins; don't forget to submit your memory regains! There is no activity check this week!

THE FINAL INVESTIGATION BEGINS ON THURSDAY!
THIS IS THE LAST WEEK TO REDEEM COINS!
The text and calling posts are still active, for the sake of contacting the jerk who's keeping you here, to be used at your leisure!]

[Well, what's she even say to that. There's of course I am and maybe, but I don't know how many others agree, even confessing I'm glad someone thinks so might be an option.

In the end, though there's no flowers or anything to denote her thought time, she'll slowly write out her reply.]

thanks
it's hard to be a good person in everyone's eyes, but i don't think it's really necessary to be
it sounds tiring to try to please everyone too
saying you're a leader is easy, being one is hard

[Which is probably why Glory didn't have one in their group.]

do you have anything to report?
mostly about our friends on the other side

[trustharder]

YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE A GOOD PERSON IN EVERYONE'S EYES.
AND YOU DON'T HAVE TO PLEASE EVERYONE TO BE A GOOD PERSON.
SOMETIMES BEING A GOOD PERSON MEANS YOU DON'T PLEASE EVERYONE.
AND YOU ARE A GOOD PERSON.

[...well, that was immediate.]

TELL CHERRYBLOD THAT I WARNED THEM LIKE HE WANTED ME TO.
AND THAT THEY ASKED A LOT OF QUESTIONS.

[captainobnoxious]

[Oh, Glory. Everyone should have a friend like you. She's giving the chalkboard a pat out of habit of... patting things that don't feel, generally, though Mettaton was special because magic.

... Once she realizes that they probably doesn't feel it, because they're not the chalkboard themselves, she'll draw a big heart and put "Glory" in the center. Good enough.]

i will
what kind of questions did they ask?

[trustharder]

ABOUT THE SITUATION.
ABOUT OTHER GAMES.
ABOUT HOW MUCH I TALK TO THE REST OF YOU.

[...]

ABOUT WHO IS A GOOD PERSON AND WHO IS NOT.

[captainobnoxious]

[...]

about yourself and ambitious?

[trustharder]

NOT REALLY.
ALTHOUGH AMBITIOUS IS NOT A GOOD PERSON.

[captainobnoxious]

i figure not
him being crazy and all
like, not the kind of crazy i am, because i know i'm pretty off the wall, but yeah
so it was more about who's a good person or not in the group we've got left

[...]

do they think i'm a bad person?

[Is that why they'd answered so quickly?]

[trustharder]

THEY THINK NORMA BATES IS A BAD PERSON.

[..............]

FUCK NORMA BATES.

[WELL THEN.]

[captainobnoxious]

[WELL THEN.]

and that, glory, is where the unforgettable line came from

[So. Fucking. Unfortunate.]

i still don't get that whole thing really
apparently there's more to it than him being her or something like that?
do you get it?

[trustharder]

WHAT DO YOU MEAN, MORE TO IT?

[captainobnoxious]

so you're as lost as i am
good

[... Now does she explain the "more to it" thing. Because she doesn't get it either.]

probably something dealing with the fact his mom made him her lover or something?
i don't know
but there were a lot of people who felt pretty bad for him
i did too kind of, because his mom's really fucking crazy, but i still mostly think he's a freak

[A pause.]

don't tell him i said that though
it's nothing personal i was just glad i brought alcohol to it in the end

[trustharder]

OH.
I THINK HE'S CRAZY. HE ISN'T HER BUT HE THINKS HE IS.
BECAUSE HE'S CRAZY.
ALSO KIND OF A FREAK, EVEN IF HIS MOM WAS ALSO REALLY FUCKING CRAZY.

[captainobnoxious]

[Well, Black, at least she's not laughing to an empty room. That'd be silly. But she is laughing.]

i guess it runs in the family
at least he can't make lovers out of his kids at this point!!

[sigrun that's

so wrong]

[trustharder]

[...holy shit, Sigrun]

WOW.

[captainobnoxious]

[... wow, it's even underlined

she stunned the ghost]

was that too much
are you regretting calling me a good person

[But she seems in a good mood despite that?? Look, there's flowers around "good person".]

[trustharder]

I AM NOT!
YOU ARE STILL A GOOD PERSON EVEN IF THAT WAS IMPRESSIVELY OFF-COLOR.
THERE ARE VERY FEW PEOPLE WHO ARE BAD PEOPLE.

[so many flowers, Sigrun]

[captainobnoxious]

thank you, i know i'm impressive!!

[s i g r u n]

i hope you laughed anyway
because if you did that makes you impressive too

[trustharder]

I ALSO KNOW I'M PRETTY IMPRESSIVE.
AFTER ALL, I AM NAMED GLORY.

[captainobnoxious]

[This ghost... it speaks to her..!]

i like you
i take back what i was thinking you and my boyfriend would've gotten along really well
he also thought (and he was right to!!!) that he was all that
it was one of my favorite things about him!

[She might be drawing hearts instead of flowers now, fair warning.]

[trustharder]

WHO WAS YOUR BOYFRIEND?

[...other than kind of a dick about people being sad and also justified in being egotistical]

[captainobnoxious]

a star!!!

[She'll draw stars too. Sigrun's kind of always excited to talk about her boyfriend.]

back where he came from, anyway, his world's only star. like a celebrity thing
he's also a robot
or was one
now he's kind of nothing

[... Her stars continue, but they're a little slower now.]

i don't know where else to begin with him though
his name's mettaton and his title was bombastic
i learned lately that it's not actually as nice as it sounds, but i'm still taking it as that he was an explosive kind of person
because he really was
better than being meaningless or whatever

[trustharder]

OH.
CHERRYBLOD WANTED TO KNOW IF I'D SEEN HIM.
I'VE HEARD THINGS ABOUT HIM.
I'M SORRY ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED TO HIM, THOUGH.

[captainobnoxious]

he deserved it like any other killer

[... Though the longer she looks at that, chalk still on the board as if to continue writing, the worse she feels.]

he deserved it like any other killer, but i still wish he hadn't died
because he isn't going to be with the rest of them
he was different than anyone else in the whole vault and that includes his soul
they don't stick around
so i don't think he's around either, even if i still hope he is sometimes
i have a lot i want to say to him

[trustharder]

WHAT WOULD YOU SAY TO HIM?

[there are a few more of the idle-thinking swirls, though.]

YOU DON'T HAVE TO TELL ME IF YOU DON'T WANT TO.
SORRY.

[captainobnoxious]

[Pfft.]

i have letters full of things i'd say to him
i'm not really good at letters and i hate writing but i did it to help clear my mind
he used to do the same thing
or tried to, anyway
turns out he wasn't very good at doing letters either

[... She's actually better at letters than he is. At least, finished product wise. Ha.]

i don't mind though
i just don't know what i'd say first
i think the most important thing is that he's welcome to come home with me if he still wants to, since i regret telling him he wasn't allowed to after he came out about his kill switch thing
we have a mountain to climb and stars to see and fancy places for me to be uncomfortable at
