trusthell | Week 5.

WEEK 5
Three more have joined the deceased this past week. Taichi Yagami was punished for breaking a rule, Megumi Sakura was killed, and Norman Bates... well, the less said about Norman, the better.

A third of you are dead now; your losses are becoming more and more evident with each passing week.

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 fifth floor. Go ahead and explore as much as you like; you'll probably need the distraction after the last trial.

I know that. Still hard not to make them.

[A heavy sigh.]

Thank you.

[He's not great with speeches or anything like that. Especially with something so out of his experience. But if Cherryblod having someone to hold on to helps who's he to deny him?]

...honestly, I kinda needed company too.

I'm good for company. At least when it's you.

[He doubts there'd ever be a time he'd turn Yosuke away from his door.]

[He makes a small almost happy noise, but that's all. He's content to just be here with his friend]

...You're dear to me. You do know that, don't you? You give me hope here.

[That's really all he's running on right now. Hope and the desire to protect the few people they have left.]

... same. I couldn't... I dunno if I'd still be here if I was on my own.

As long as I'm here, I'm here for you. Because you are - my precious, precious family.

[Even if they're not related by blood, that's how he thinks of Yosuke.

He can only hope he can be there for him as long as possible before something happens.]

[He trembles- damn it, he was here to comfort Cherry, not the other way around]

I... I love you, okay. So don't... I guess I just gotta say that. Cuz we could fall asleep somewhere, or say the wrong thing or trust the wrong person any day so I don't care if it's dumb or whatever.

[Cherryblod turns so he can hug him properly now. C'mere.]

It's not dumb. Caring about people here, when any of those things could happen to anyone, is an act of bravery.

I love you too, Yosuke.

Sorry... I meant to come in here to make you feel better. Not get all worked up.

[Gentle hair stroking.]

How could my son telling me he loves me not make me feel better?

...you're such a sap.

[Said fondly, but with just enough teenager-ness]

[He wouldn't be Yosuke without his teenager-ness.]

I am the sappiest person in this vault and you know it.

Not even a contest there.

First place for fatherly affection, every year.

[Yosuke's gonna get the forehead smooch. It's easier with him because he can actually brush his hair out of the way.]

[He wrinkles his nose at that, but doesn't pull away]

... I have some food from the machine. You should eat something.

[No one wants to go in there to cook just yet]

[Definitely not...]

Too kind as always. What's on the menu?

Nothing fancy, just some rations. Oh yeah, but I got some really nice smelling tea! I could probably manage that?

I'd love some.

[Likes: tea.]

I could dip into some of my supplies, too, if I can find anything.

[There is so much stuff in his trunk. So much.]

Got it. I'll be right back, okay?

[And off he goes, happy to be doing *something*. In the end he does have to go into the kitchen for a small bit- he just can't get water hot enough anywhere else

(he considers the sauna, but thank god he rejects that idea fast)

But thankfully Stan and Bruce had taken away everything that tied to the King's sad death. Even so, just being in there long enough to get a kettle on the boil makes him nervous. But it's better then trying to cook something outright.

When he comes back with the tray there's certainly a sharp smell of warm cinnamon]

[Cherryblod is digging through his (very very full) trunk when Yosuke returns, and pulls out a Boxed Lunch About This Big. It would make a nice breakfast about this big, too.]

Can hardly find anything anymore... Thank you, that smells delicious.

Whoa, the vending machine sure likes you, huh?

I've gotten over a hundred coins. Closer to two hundred now, I think.

Wow... I would say lucky, but most of what comes out is kinda crap.

What I think is that the Kingmaker has some kind of thing for shrimp and this is how he expresses it.
