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

You could say that, but it's a long story. Mind if we talk about this somewhere else, say... your room? Mine works too, if that's an issue.

[She'll take the injector for the time being, though.]

[quadruples]

[ Viktor doesn't reply at first, visibly hesitating. He isn't sure if that is something he wants to answer honestly. But then he remembers their conversation during truth or dare, when Gold revealed some personal things to him. ]

...Something I'd been missing out on before I met Yuuri. My career took up all of my time and none of my previous relationships lasted longer than six months.

[uncouthhatcher]

[HOLY SHIT

SPORTACUS THAT'S SO

SO

UNDERHANDED AND SNEAKY Gold is so taken aback at first, but he's grinning and laughing soon enough.]

No-- No way! That's awesome! You're a really sneaky guy, Sporty, I didn't expect that outta you!

[uncouthhatcher]

Drawing, hands down. But I can't draw worth a damn.

[So he won't mar her memory with it.]

[oyashiromama]

Because you seem like you needed it.

[uncouthhatcher]

What if we ain't supposed to be gettin' messages from them? That bastard could stop it somehow.

bless you

[firstaid]

I would appreciate that.

[Just because she is more proficient with a sword and would be better able to defend herself.


In the meantime...]

If you're offering to practice, I accept.

[plentyfriendly]

I'm not much of a tea expert, but maybe there's a lot of it because it's not good tea?

[That's a bit of a stretch.]

[oyashiromama]

...I can relate, in a way.

[It's...surprising, to say this-]

The name on the wall...none of those is...a personal name for me. Before I received the name "Hanyuu," I spent my days just...doing my duty, and nothing else.

[sportadork]

I don't like doing that sort of thing! [mind you] But... it's about the only time he ever comes out of his lair and plays with everyone! It's only to help him.

[deofoled]

Is that yours? [ He figures it might be because of how she's waving it.]

[oyashiromama]

What did he do? ...If you don't mind my asking.

[oyashiromama]

You've seen a lot here that's supposed to just be fiction, haven't you? Different worlds, different dimensions, different rules.

[oyashiromama]

[That's a start.]

I...know many have already spoken with you...but I am Hanyuu. I've- ...I didn't want to simply call you a creature, so the Wordsmith said... He said you wouldn't mind a name. Kageshirou. Do you have any objections to this? I can...choose a new one.

[feistytrader]

[It might be a little large, but he did pick something that looked pretty damn close to her size.]

Meant what?

[sportadork]

[it is very early in the morning, before the chime, that Sportacus wakes up and heads to the vending machine to put in his latest coins. it's mainly a boring bunch of stuff, maybe some good gifts for his friends back home... the teddy bear dressed up like him gets his attention, though.]

Ziggy's teddy... Why would it be in there... [surely a homicidal kidnapper wouldn't stoop so low as to steal a toy from a child! he doesn't notice the strange wind-up mechanism on its back.

he carries it tucked in his arm as he walks to the gym, where he plans to do his morning routine. but, when he walks in the door, it all just kind of. hits him. all at once. he looks at the punching bag, remembers Judy using it only a few days before... Judy, who is dead, like all the others; who he will never speak to again, like all the others; who he failed to save, like all the others.

so, anyone unfortunate enough to go to the gym this morning is going to find a grown man curled up in the corner, clutching a teddy bear that's dressed like him, and weeping. that's just the kind of week this has been.]

[alchemicals]

...Let's say that he reminds of me of Kira in a lot of ways.

[He doesn't seem too inclined to elaborate beyond that, but you can imagine, surely.]

[trustwellness]

[NO.

...Apparently no objections here. Kageshirou it is.]

[oyashiromama]

A-aah, I've been...

[...having a tantrum, soaking in the pool, hating everything--]

J-just around.

[oyashiromama]

...a little baby. [...] I would love to meet him, though I hope...he's not here, in this place.

[oyashiromama]

[...she almost wants to be the positive voice here but it's hanyuu she doesn't really do that-]

...Let me try it.

[HOW'S THE TEA TASTE?]

[oyashiromama]

Not yet. ...Many seem to be, and I think...it'd be a bad idea to overwhelm it.

[oyashiromama]

[SOCIAL LINK UP Hanyuu shakes her head.]

My room is...no problem, none at all. I have to get these things back to it, anyway.

[Besides the syringe, yeah, you hold on to that Phi. Let's go to Hanyuu's room.]

[feistytrader]

We had a nice swim together.

[He's not fond of lying, but a little white lie never hurt anyone.]

[oyashiromama]

...I feel like I understand.

[yeah fuck that guy to be honest]
