WEEK 6.

[trustwellness]

WEEK 6 With the deaths of Viktor Nikiforov, Varric Tethras, and Killia, you're down to half of your original number. There's only fifteen of you left. How much longer before your number drops again? 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... Of course, that doesn't mean that you've gained nothing else among the many, many losses you've faced; it seems that another floor has been made available to you for surviving another week. Congratulations and well done, even if you might not necessarily appreciate the reward. APPRENTICES REMAINING: 15

SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY

[oyashiromama]

It matters. Truly.

[oyashiromama]

Thank you. I'm...going to not take this chance for granted.

[She smiles.]

And you too, you said you had a good dream? I'm glad.

[elepe]

[...Huh.]

You're far stronger than I. The thought of failing people, those I care for and love...it scares me. The very thought of it is something I cannot stay on for long.

[She's talking in general terms, at least.]

How do you find determination in such things?

[oyashiromama]

The more I hear about the "experiments" you were involved in, the more disgusted I feel on your behalf.

[oyashiromama]

[I MEAN 5/100, HORRIBLE]

...Aaaah...

[you win some, you really REALLY lose some]

[introspects]

Then we're good here!

[ SHE'S ONTO U, ]

Buuut if you want me to change it, let me know, okay?

[introspects]

Yup! Sounds great!

[ pulling out those bagels, then! ]

We can also use some hot chocolate powder for chocolate drizzle, too!

[introspects]

Ah...it's--it's like yours. It's...more of a relief than anything.

[ ... ] I had dreams of a friend of ours betraying us during a war, and heading to the other side. It...turns out he really wasn't. He was just being a double agent. He was always on our side.

[oyashiromama]

Because I can't stand to see another suffer in that way. [...] Or...a little more selfishly, because...part of me treats it as another chance.

[Rika, her second chance at doing right by Ouka. ...Alani, her third. Failure, in every one, so she thought.]

I can understand that fear, though. It... For a very long time, my own paralyzed me. That fear, and the fear of being betrayed.

[oyashiromama]

Ah... Yes, I can see how that would be a good dream. When you can trust someone again that you care for, it... It's beautiful to learn. The alternative...

[...]

Thank goodness you don't have to experience that pain, in this case.

[introspects]

Yes...I'm really glad.

[ uryuu is one of her closest friends. it would have pained her if he truly, truly went over to the other side. ]

But...there's a war, Hanyuu...what if it's still happening right now, and I can't be there to help?

[plentyfriendly]

Zero isn't getting away from me when I find him.

[Too bad, though...]

[plentyfriendly]

Good thinking.

[Bacon, because bacon is always good... tomatoes...

If the future hadn't refused to change maybe the cholesterol would have gotten to her before her own sword.]

[acherontiastyx]

...But you're a vampire!?

[introspects]

[ rip phi

actually, she has a better idea. orihime opens the fridge in search of something, and: ]

Actually, there's some chocolate syrup in here! Let's use that instead. And do you want me to toast the bagels?

[oyashiromama]

...We don't know how many memories we're missing. We don't know...just how much we've yet to understand. Right now, Orihime...you have to keep hope. If you don't, it'll weigh you down.

[She knows from experience.]

[introspects]

I know. I won't lose hope. I promise.

[ she at least offers a weak smile. ]

I'm just...worried about them. That's all.

[oyashiromama]

Zero...is his name? The person who put you there?

[At least she knows who's doing this.]

[oyashiromama]

You'll see them again. ...I know that you'll see them again...but I won't say you can't be worried. I understand that much.

[plentyfriendly]

Is it the quick-drying kind?

[That would be preferable, otherwise it'd just make a mess.]

Hmm... I'd say not now but maybe later.

[plentyfriendly]

Yes.

He's a tall man with a deep voice, but thanks to his probably voice-altering beaked mask I don't know more.

[matchbreaker]

[ Hanyuu... how did you lose with two aces, a king, a queen, and two tens left in your hand...???

How... ]

Hahahahaa! I guess you're making two!! Who should it be this time, hmmmmm...

[matchbreaker]

... Are you going to hang that up in your room or something?

[ :T

:T ]

[matchbreaker]

Vampires aren't magic!

[introspects]

...Yes...I know we'll all make it out. I'll see them again. I hope they're alright. The enemy....the enemy's really powerful. Horrifyingly so.
