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

SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY

Listen, I told y'all about time travel and weird time garbage. It's not worth it.

Vending Machine

[matchbreaker]

[ Huh, that sure is a lot of stuff. Elda's wearing some of her stuff, specifically a bracelet and a broach or two, but it doesn't really stand out much. But seeing some of them on the table here...

What's the ruler thing? She's going to just wave it around, seeing if there's a trick to it.

She didn't ask.

how rude. ]

Vending Machine

[matchbreaker]

[ SHE BARELY PAYS ATTENTION TO THE BELT (at first) TBH...

and she's also ignoring this budding freak out? At least for a moment, because she's pointing at the gaming system and asking, ]

Did you want that?

[acherontiastyx]

Huh.

...

I bet he had an accordion. He had to have.

[elepe]

[It's mostly a matter of envisioning the process...a highly censored version, but it still gives her an idea of what he does.]

I see. [Hmm. She does try to think for a moment...] Would you be willing to give a demonstration? I assume it involves maneuvering around the lance, or waiting for an opening while they're trying to recover...

[She doesn't know jack shit about fighting, but educated guesses are at least something she can do.]

yard sale

[matchbreaker]

[ it is decidedly unclear as to if she considers their beef over or she's just ignoring it. But like any good old lady she loves a yard sale. And so she is here, looking at this stuff of not wanting. Specifically, she's fiddling with the camera, holding it up to her eyes. And also poking and prodding at the other stuff.

She does this with only a real wave of introduction. Hmmmm ]

[plegia]

...Sure. I can probably get Killia to help if you want to watch from afar, but otherwise you can come over here.

[He gestures to the mats where he's standing.]

[firstaid]

Why is the accordion so important?

[She is a little confused here.]

vending machine IF WE'VE HIT THREAD CAPACITY TELL ME IDEK

[matchbreaker]

[ ... Wow, that sure was a tantrum? Should she give her a minute??? ... Nah. Elda saw that, and she instead decides to get up behind Hanyuu, reach about her body, and hold out -

A drawing???

It does appear to be a sheet of paper that has a drawing on it! Or well, two of three half-finished drawings of various people here. Specifically, Elda's tried to draw Silver, Hanyuu, and Lusamine from memory ]

Want to help me with something?

[elepe]

It's mostly catharsis.

[Lusamine looks to the blades with a shake of her head.]

...I'm still sore that I didn't get one good hit on him. I want to be prepared, if someone tries that again.

[matchbreaker]

What's a bad idea about that?!

[ Maybe she's dumb too. ]

[matchbreaker]

Well I had like thirty of them, and it seemed like a hassle to put them in one by one.

[matchbreaker]

[ . . . . ]

Wait, timelines?

[oyashiromama]

I have to go with her. It's...not that I can't return to the others, but rather, that she can't. It's only used in extreme cases.

[tsugomori]

Orihime...

[ Mikazuki can't ignore Orihime's outburst, and so he steps closer -- first to pick up the bracelets, his intention to be giving to her soon. His actions are for fear that she may be tempted to do something. At this point, he can't exactly predict what anyone may do.

And maybe, it's not a good place for anyone to linger, when they are like this--and he doesn't know what words would be helpful so he starts with something immediate, hoping for the best. ]

It may be wise for us to vacate the area, for now.

[ He'll then hold out the bracelets to her-- for her to take. ]

[matchbreaker]

I noticed that, brat, I mean--t?!

[ and then he jumped in.

Is this suit even small enough for her??? is it going to be way too big... ]

[matchbreaker]

[ Elda hold up a scolding finger and addresses the room as a whole with this, because she's actually not sure: ]

Wait a minute! If he doesn't know this is happening, telling him wouldn't be good.

[acherontiastyx]

Yeah. Nobody wash the dishes tonight. For science.

[matchbreaker]

[ That's... ]

... I could just ask "why" again at that, but fine, that's fine.

[plentyfriendly]

Well, how would you explain two events that took place at the same time?

[I mean, it could just be a different day but that seems especially unlikely in this case in particular.]

[firstaid]

[She cants her head.]

But if the Wordsmith wrote it, wouldn't that mean he knows about it?

[plentyfriendly]

Ride-along SHIFT... If I could do that, maybe I could have...

[wait she hasn't used that name]

Oh. "Space-time Human Internal Fluctuating Transfer". That's what my power is called. Or at least, it's what Akane called it.

[iaspis]

I've learned quite a lot about your kind, living here.

[....granted most of it is probably not positive, but]

[acherontiastyx]

...

[...oh. yeah. he's... registering that now.]

...

Uh, shit.

[plegia]

[Well understandably so, humans suck!!]

I'm not surprised; I imagine it'd be difficult for you to live among us and not learn anything!
