WEEK 4.

[trustwellness]

WEEK 4 Three more have died this past week. Milla Maxwell was killed for breaking a rule, Chiyuki was murdered, and you all had a hand in executing Yoshikage Kira. It seems like this isn't going to stop any time soon. How many more will join them this week? 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... Despite the Wordsmith's reaction to the last trial, it seems as though you've been rewarded once again for a job that was...well, it was done, even if he didn't explicitly say it was well-done. Another door has opened in that stairway, it seems, leading you further down into the building; once again, there are more rooms down there, more things to occupy yourselves with. Or perhaps just more means to get creative with regards to how you take initiative with your fellow Apprentices. APPRENTICES REMAINING: 23 APPRENTICES REMAINING: 22 APPRENTICES REMAINING: 20

Your...brother... [The way she looks, the way she sounds the way that's phrased-

It's Hanyuu's turn to just walk right to Orihime and wrap her in a hug.]

I'm sorry. I'm sorry, you...come here. If I'd known, I would've given them to you in a heartbeat. In a second.

[deofoled]

[.....]

He wasn't human, and he wasn't a demon if you believe what he told Elda. That's the only other being he could be.

1/2

[matchbreaker]

[ Quieter, running her hand over the items on the table... ]

So he does exist.

[quadruples]

And it sounds like "victor", which I like. [ ...your ego is showing a little, buddy. ]

Ahh, by the way, what did you come to the library for? If you're looking for anything in particular, maybe I can help. I spend a lot of time here.

[matchbreaker]

[ Oh look, he got a friendship bracelet too. She picks it up. ]

Oh, wow! So there's more of these!

[oyashiromama]

[What...? Her? Still, she's surprised-]

N-no, I... I-I'm not doing as well...as I could be, really. [Sunday, she didn't want to leave, not at all-] I'm fl-flattered, but really.

[How can Orihime still think she's a good person...?]

You may say I don't give myself enough credit, but nor do you. ...You aren't meant for a world like this, but still, you persevere.

[plentyfriendly]

All right, so it works kind of like this. When I got attacked with that white smoke, my consciousness was catapulted from 2028 to 2074, when the Nonary Game happened.

[Phi draws a diagram that looks like this on the paper, the major difference being that "Nevada Test Site" is replaced with "Dcom".]

In short, from point A to B.

[plentyfriendly]

Close enough...

[oyashiromama]

[Was.]

You liked her but didn't... Do you think this is why?

[introspects]

[ Hope you don't mind Orihime clinging onto her, crying into Hanyuu's shoulder.

It's been a long, hard week. She's tired.

She just wants to go home. ]

[introspects]

[ Because Hanyuu is amazing and beautiful and everything a god should be. That's why. ]

I'm...I'll be okay, Hanyuu-san. I've been through a lot at home that's prepared me a little more for this, I think.

[ That's not even a good thing to say... ]

You're important to me; I have to stay strong for the people I care about...for everyone here.

[uncouthhatcher]

You bet! There's a place in Goldenrod that's famous for it! I'd take my partners there every time we went to help out at the Daycare at the outskirts of the city, they'd fuss over Togebo so much it was hilarious. He liked it, though, even if he'd make a scene about not wantin' anything from them.

[There's such fondness in his voice, talking about his world and his Pokémon.]

[introspects]

[ Orihime hugs Phi a little tighter. ]

You shouldn't be here, Phi-san. Not at all...

[plentyfriendly]

That doesn't change the fact that I am. And I'm going to do what I can.

[Whatever that is.]

[deofoled]

[ He notices that, but if she doesn't want to talk about he won't force the subject. It's noted though, maybe at a later time.]

What is it?

[introspects]

[ this is so sad peace ]

Really? Is Togebo one of your Pokemon? I didn't know they needed haircuts, too!

[uncouthhatcher]

[he never gets to see any of his pokemon again this is Great]

Yup, and it's mostly all kinds of grooming stuff. They can get massages too! Togebo usually just gets his shell cleaned though, especially where his body kind of meets it. It's tough for Polibo to get in even with his water!

[matchbreaker]

Apparently it's a friendship bracelet. Or something.

[deofoled]

...I shouldn't be surprised that humans have those too.

[oyashiromama]

[...Ah. Hanyuu's still.]

I... I told you before, Elda. I can't.

[oyashiromama]

I'd never met... [...] Why do you think he pretended otherwise?

[matchbreaker]

I know but... [ she's still smiling, she can't help it. She knows her friend is distressed, but... well. ] I mean, a ghost might as well be somewhere happy. And- and Anju! She's actually amazing with ghosts. She's got tons of them in her dolls. You could have a body!

[oyashiromama]

[Hanyuu's done it to enough people. She doesn't mind. She holds tight to Orihime.]

It's okay. You can cry. [It's not okay.] I-I'm rihgt here.

[deofoled]

Neither had I.

[...]

Angels and demons usually don't get along.

[deofoled]

[....]

Do you want that too?
