pick a god and pray

[Like the weeks before, once everyone has wandered off their separate ways, notes are posted to each room that still has a warm body in it. Only this time the writing is much messier then any other notice]

None of us feel like celebrating, but I think Yato would approve if we don't spend the night hiding out because of him
There's warmed up food in the Game Room if you're hungry. Might be best to not be alone tonight.

-Yosuke

[And as promised there's leftovers in the Game Room; and eventually fresh stuff as Tarrlok gets to work in the kitchen. Yosuke is there, trying to set something up on one of the shelves, but otherwise you are left to your own devices]

Are they really guaranteed from here on out, though? I know everyone was kind of shocked that Bruce was considering it and yelled at him for it, and I wouldn't be surprised if someone had a stern discussion with you about it, either.

...You seem a little less likely to care what anyone thinks, of course, so it's not exactly like I think much would change your mind.

Oh, don't worry, darling, I got a very stern discussion! I also made it clear that I don't care and will do what I think is necessary from here on. So there's that.

If nothing else, you've got one guaranteed. That's all that's needed, right?

[...He sounds way too enthusiastic about this for someone who said earlier that they aren't interested in jumping in front of every bus, but you know what, maybe celebrities are just like that.]

...One really is all it takes, isn't it...? Well, only you can change your mind for yourself, I'd imagine, so I'll just leave it at... well... I really hope it doesn't come to that again so none of us have to worry about it.

Or that we can actually do something else about it but hahahaha like that's ever going to be possible.

Well, you never know. Maybe the Kingmaker also just really hates repeat performances!

Though honestly, it's more of a worry if he does. The alternative is actually worse.

...that is true, you know. Better the vengeful spirit you know than the vengeful spirit you don't, figuratively speaking.

Either way, it's just as predictable. That's... what, three for three on Fridays? I know this one was basically scheduled, but the other two weren't.

...Good to know that we all absolutely lose our minds every five days or so, I guess. No wonder he thinks we're boring sometimes.

[bloodisthicker]

You'd think he would've scheduled it for Thursday or Saturday just for a change of pace or something... but would that really change anything?

[ratingspoint]

...Probably not.

[...]

I wonder how he would have done it, if he'd picked one of us. That's probably terrible, isn't it?

[...I mean, Taichi The Amazing Exploding Person will sort of answer this question in a couple of days, probably, but...]

[bloodisthicker]

Whatever it was, I suspect it would've been something terribly ironic that he probably thinks is very funny and the rest of us find horrifying.

So... probably not something general, per se, but something specifically tailored to who he picked.

[ratingspoint]

I think my question is more who he would have had do it, since we wouldn't have a victim to be appropriately guilt-inducing.

[bloodisthicker]

...that's definitely something to wonder about, yes. Though... given that we don't actually know what we're dealing with, his executioner could be shaped like practically anything.
