WEEK 7.

[trustwellness]

WEEK 7 Oerba Dia Vanille, Phi, and Gangrel have joined the deceased, dropping your number even further. This is the second week that the death toll has risen by three, just by way of murder alone. With well over half of your number deceased, how much longer can this go on? 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... As before, it seems that door at the bottom of the stairwell has been unlocked, allowing you to descend even further into the depths of the university; perhaps the new floor holds something promising for you. Or perhaps you'll "christen" this one with another murder. Given the current pattern, that probably wouldn't be a surprise. APPRENTICES REMAINING: 12

SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY

[ But it's her room too! ... Or so she thinks. But seeing the woman making a point like this, Elda sort of cocks her head to the side, and puts a hand on her hip. Finally, she sighs and, ]

... The dolls don't take up that much space [ . . . She sighs, and walks over to pick one up by the head, shaking it a little. ... she's not attached enough to these thing to make a stink about it. She hums, and sort of tosses it towards the bed, to be fixed up later. ] But I'll get rid of the rabbit thing and put the dolls somewhere else. [ She's pretty sure it's Vanlle's ] And I'll keep the bear.

[ See, she's being reasonable! Maybe! ]

I don't want to fight either.

[oyashiromama]

[Explaining personal space to Elda might be a lost cause, huh. ...So that is a surprise, really, that she relents, and a bit of relief is clear on Hanyuu's face.

...Of course telling Hanyuu that rabbit-thing is probably Vanille's would definitely get her to want to keep it-]

I- thank you. I think...that's acceptable. [She too sighs, shoulders slumping.] A more...domestic dispute was bound to happen, eventually.

[matchbreaker]

Probably. I... [ . . . Her cheeks color a little more ] ... I had wanted to make the room more my own. I did not realize that was not how you saw it.

[ And she still feels sort of bad for that! ... Actually no, she's a little hurt but she's not dumb enough to that sh would think she's in the right for that. She just sort of assumed. She puts the rabbit thing, the Chiyuki dolls, and the dog plush which was behind the bed on said bed to move it somewhere else. ]

[oyashiromama]

Elda...

[...]

It's been just a few days. I know...everything moves fast here. That in an instant, it could all... I know- that your feelings are intense. Mine are too. I just- ...rushing, it frightened me. I'm sorry if I made you feel...unwanted.

[matchbreaker]

[ ... Rushing frightened her. ... She frightened her. Elda's cheeks color a little and her gaze casts down. She looks at the collection of stuffed thing she barely cares about, that she largely brought to make a point.

... and she- ]

Hanyuu!

[ . . . ] That fan I gave you [ The one presumably still on display in the room ] Do you thnk of me, looking at it?

[oyashiromama]

[It took her long enough, to get this out- she's going to have to get much better at talking about her insecurities, isn't she...?

Still on display? Yes, yes it is!! The change in subject surprises her and she stammers.]

A-aah?! Y-yes, of course I do.

[matchbreaker]

I...

[ . . . ]

... I did not mean to frighten you.

[ Apparently that's what counts as an apology?! She's ... she's pouting, still, but of Hanyuu of all people can come out and say something like that (particularly telling her that her feelings are intense as well, something she's... feared? A little. ]

I - I wanted merely to have left a mark to make it clear I was here. And- [ She is not really looking at Hanyuu now, but at the fan- ] That you think of me.

[ . . . BASICALLY SHE WAS BEING A CLINGY INSECURE CATTY GIRLFRIEND, BUT. HEY ]

[oyashiromama]

[......BOTH OF THEM ARE REALLY BAD AT STATING THEIR INSECURITIES, AREN'T THEY-

Hanyuu stares at her for a moment, and then walks over and kisses Elda's cheek.]

Elda... You've already left a mark. [...and she's not talking about the bite mark on her neck-] It would be impossible for me to not think of you. That much, I can promise.

[matchbreaker]

[ . . . She-

She... oh, does Elda blush. She blushes, and turns towards the other woman, her cheeks bright red. She keeps her gaze on Hanyuu's lips more than anything, one of her hands going up to lightly brush her cheek ]

... Hanyuu, would I - Am I-- ... Do you consider me attractive, now?

[oyashiromama]

[What a question, she- just as Elda, she finds herself blushing. It's lighter, but still there.

...The door is closed right? Oh thank goodness the door is mostly closed.]

I- yes, I would say I do. I've, aah...I've never been much, to women, but... I-I would say that's changed.

[matchbreaker]

Nor... nor I. [ . . . ] I have never before loved a woman as I love you.

[ There! She said it! But she...

She's smiling, a little more. Through the blushing and her strangely pouty eyes. That was... a real, genuine worry. That she might be the only one who wanted the other's body. ]

[oyashiromama]

...It was, aah... It was barely even an option, for me... All I had was Riku, and my friend Shino, as those who spoke with me, and I had...no real interest in romance, before I met him.

[...No real interest in living, actually-]

Aah... S-so... When opened up to more people...to interact with... It's...something new, and exciting...and something I very much like.

[Hanyuu's bi awakening.]

[matchbreaker]

[ . . . Okay but like.

Elda is - Elda is still that clingy girlfriend and so while she does take a step closer, cheeks burning a little, and put a hand on Hanyuu, she still asks, a little more selfishly, ]

... What is it you find most attractive about me?

[oyashiromama]

[Immediately Hanyuu's mouth starts opening and closing, like a fish, all awkward and stammering.]

Au- aah, y-you're putting me on the spot, Elda... You mean, physically...?

[SHE JUST HAS TO MAKE SURE...]

[matchbreaker]

Yes, of course!

[ Clapping her hands together!

... Like other forms of being attractive or good too, but this is the one she has a complex about right now ]

[oyashiromama]

Well... Aah, your hair...and eyes- your whole face is very- very good.

[...bless her she's trying she's so bad at this-]

[matchbreaker]

[ Elda is ... fluttering her eyelashes.

Soaking this up.

Expectantly. Glowing. ]

[oyashiromama]

And your- aah, your smile? Really, everything is- good, auu, I-I'm sorry, I'm not very good at this...

[matchbreaker]

N-no, you needn't worry!

[ :T She... ]

I... I too love - your smile, that is. And your hair. Your eyes. Your fingers and your horns and your-- [ . . . She probably shouldn't have said horns uh - ] Your breasts are surprisingly big?!

[oyashiromama]

[YOU KNOW HER SAYING SHE LIKES HER HORNS AFTER THE CONVERSATION THEY HAD ISN'T AS BAD? It isn't as bad, she gets it now, at least enough, that they're always gonna be bad for her, for the moment there's another--]

Th-they just grew this big when I was alive, it's not- I don't know what to tell you!

[matchbreaker]

Awww, are you embarrassed? Don't worry, I've seen plenty of women with bigger yabos than that, and you really look good for it!

[ She said, gliding over towards Hanyuu.

... Jaws theme ]

[oyashiromama]

[Aw hell no-]

I don't appreciate the unsolicited groping, Elda!

[matchbreaker]

[ !! ... Time to change strategies, then! ]

May I grope you, solicited?!

[ . . . Clearly, this is much better. ]

[oyashiromama]

[...!!]

A-aah- I-I would appreciate, right now if- you would not. ...But thank you.

[matchbreaker]

[ . . . She may or may not be making grabby hands motions, but. ]

... Very well! I will ask later.

[ :T ]
