trusthell | WEEK 3.

WEEK 3
As the second week draws to a close, two more have joined the deceased. Christo and Alani are dead, leaving twenty-six of you remaining.

It may not seem like very many have died, but their absence will certainly be felt.

Saturday is given to regrouping and rest; on Sunday morning the clock chimes as it always has, but at least there are no bodies to find today. It seems 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...

Just like last week, a door in the stairwell has opened, leading you down further into the building; there are more rooms open to you down there - possibly even one that you'll find personally interesting.

Go ahead and explore all you like; after all, you did well at completing your lessons this past week.

[shakes head] Without something to fire them with, they're very harmless! Unless someone lights this place on fire, we should be fine.

Well that's what I meant! Like if someone threw a match in there, would your room blow up?

... [wait shit would it...]

It would have to get a bit more out of control than that. [he's like 56% sure now]

[ Elda's thinking muskets and gunpowder right now tbh. ]

... Well, as long as you're sure!

... It won't matter, anyway, as long as everyone else is safe!

[45% sure he won't die in a horrible fiery explosion but also fine with it]

[ She almost says "not if you die" but then stops herself and hates herself for thinking it.

...

So she groans, turns on her heel, and starts to head for the door, presumably to go back downstairs. but if he's still doing the bullet thing, then he will be too, so... ]

[they are bffs why would he not follow]

How old is your granddaughter? I wonder if she and Stephanie would be friends...

Sixteen. [ She hesitates... no, yeah, sixteen, probably.

Nods. ]

Sixteen... [considers...] Stephanie is only ten, but she's very mature for her age! It would be wonderful if they could meet someday.

Oh please! My Karin might be a particularly late bloomer, but she is still a vampire. I'm sure any kids you're watching over are rays of sunshine, that can't be good for either of them.

They'd just have to stay up a little later to play, that's all! [took that entirely literally]

Come on, if you're... you know. You have to know it's two different worlds.

That's never stood in the way of friendship before. I don't see why it'd start now.

Don't be dense, of course it does!

[ Huff! Seriously, this guy.

Lalala heading downstairs. ]

Think about all the friends you made here!

[casually slides down the banister]

Oh come on, I'm not making friends?!

[ But Hanyuu tho ]

Of course you're making friends! You're always talking with people! [beat] We're talking right now!

That doesn't make me friends with them or anything.

[ Seriously. ]

What are friends if not people you like talking to a lot?

What else am I going to do here?

[ Okay she could read, but there's no one to hunt except these guys who all smell mediocre and her family isn't around and bad stuff happens and... ]

[shakes his head and sighs, but fondly]

I don't understand why some people are so against calling what they have friendships! ["people" meaning like literally just elda and robbie.] Friendship is great! Why wouldn't you want friends?

Because I don't even like all these people, a lot of them are humans, and more them are also probably going to die!

[See, that's three reasons! ]

You like some of them. [ha gotcha.

quiet for a bit. thinking.]

It hurts when people you like die. Telling yourself you didn't like them to begin with doesn't make it hurt less.

...I'm not telling anything. I had one conversation with Ushiromiya and that first dead girl each. I probably had maybe three at most with fish girl. ... I don't even remember the nerd's name. I didn't give a hoot about any of them.

Nobody is friends with everybody. [but as the weeks pass and their numbers dwindle.]

I'd be very sad if I died tomorrow and thought any of my friends didn't know how much I'd cared for them. That's all.
