Week 4.

[trustharder]

WEEK 4 And as the third week in the Vault comes to a close and the fourth week begins, the Survivors are once again down by two. Mion Sonozaki died on her own terms, and Yato died fulfilling his duty as God of Fortune in the best way that he knew how; the shrine built in the game room on Saturday stands in their memory. Saturday is given to regrouping and sleep; there aren't any bodies to be found on Sunday morning. But that doesn't mean the night was uneventful - it seems something else may have brought you some newfound clarity. Or perhaps not... Once again, that spiral staircase leads farther than you remember, clear up to a previously inaccessible fourth floor. Go ahead and explore as much as you like; even if the Kingmaker sounded a bit unhappy with you last weekend, the fact remains that you're still doing what you seem to have been brought here to do. SURVIVORS REMAINING: 21 SURVIVORS REMAINING: 20

[Black, friend, she may not know the name nor the game, but she is still a captain.]

We can do it now! Better now before I drink anymore, anyway, bet it'll be hard enough to get down the stairs as is.

[Though uh. Sigrun is surprisingly light on her feet even considering the amount of bottles that've been scattered around, and she's obviously got some intention to return to it by the way she leaves her current drink behind at her spot.]

[ ...great, Black's just closing his gin and setting it aside to follow after her.

Also, impressed by her. Sigrun's pretty cool. ]

[captainobnoxious]

[Long story short:

Chess, after it is explained to Sigrun, is simply a matter of remembering which pieces do what.

And once she's got that, as slow of a start she may have, she wins a game over Black. Yay.]

[penduli]

[ ...he lost to a woman who's been drinking the better part of the afternoon.

That... deserves a scotch or two. ]

...good luck getting Yosuke in a dress, I guess?

[captainobnoxious]

[Don't worry, she'll treat him to it.]

Oh, that will be the easy part, I'm sure. Did you really expect to win over a woman who's been commanding others for a third of her life, squirt?

[Sigrun leans over to ruffle his hair, not minding the pieces she knocks over.]

[penduli]

Playing chess isn't the same as leading people-- [ oomph. He hasn't had his hair ruffled since...

...since he last saw his fellow Casters, he guesses. Angelica and all of them. ] You really think it's going to be easy? He seemed horrified those pictures showed up in the first place.

[captainobnoxious]

[It's all a matter of bringing out their strengths!!! And knowing where they're best.]

That's why it'll be easy. I'll make sure it's a bet he can't refuse.

[penduli]

[ ... ]

Don't blackmail him into cross-dressing.

[captainobnoxious]

[...]

You're no fun.

[penduli]

[ SHE WAS ACTUALLY GOING TO ]

You've got to be just as fair with him as you were with me. All right?

[captainobnoxious]

[IT WORKS FOR TROND WHY WOULDN'T IT WORK FOR HER]

That'll make victory aaaall the sweeter anyway.

[penduli]

[ IT'D PROBABLY WORK FOR HER, TBH ]

I'm sure it will. [ he's... he's gonna have to warn Yosuke. He was in the music room, right? Maybe after another drink or two with Sigrun he'll swing by there (again) to check on him (again) and talk to him (finally). ]
