Week 6.

WEEK 6

The number of Survivors left is dropping at a quick pace; the King got what he wanted, for better or for worse; Tarrlok and Lynne were victims of both fate and some sort of magic that most in the Vault still don't quite understand, and Misa Amane has been executed, not for her particular brand of "justice", but for murdering two innocent people.

It's been a bad week.

However, 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 sixth floor. Go ahead and explore as much as you like; you've done well. You've earned it.

SURVIVORS REMAINING: 14


SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY

I still think my title doesn't fit me in any way, but it's useless to complain.

[He hasn't realized what he is delaying back in his world. It isn't his fault he doesn't know it]

What good is wood work for? It is a war, it doesn't seem to me like stuff made of wood can be useful to deal with the infected things back in your world.
captainobnoxious: (75 okay so)

[personal profile] captainobnoxious 2016-04-06 04:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Tut-tut, detective this is exactly why your title fits you so!

[... Listen, she's being nice. This is a good mood. Like, friendly.]

Wood is easy to get, it's versatile, and it holds up well where I'm from. We use it for our houses, our fences, our boats, and some of our instruments. Our weapons are made of the finest metals, sure, but that's make it any less useless in protecting ourselves.

And a troll'll fall with a good whack to the head no matter what it's made of anyway.
sleepingkogoro: (this cant be right)

[personal profile] sleepingkogoro 2016-04-06 04:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, s-shut up.

[Don't throw such truths to his face, Sigrun, it hurts him.

Mouri approaches to take a better look at the object]


And is this one of those instruments? It looks like a calculator to me.
captainobnoxious: (20 boy is that shit broken)

[personal profile] captainobnoxious 2016-04-06 04:21 pm (UTC)(link)
[.....]

Noooo, this is... just a...

[uh]

A personal project. You could say. And keep a secret.
sleepingkogoro: (this cant be right)

[personal profile] sleepingkogoro 2016-04-06 04:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Keep a secret? Okay, I can do that, but are you embarrassed people could know you are good at carpentry?
captainobnoxious: (52 exciting right)

[personal profile] captainobnoxious 2016-04-06 04:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Nope. It's just this piece in particular.

[Working on the finer details is... really relaxing, too. So. This is fine.]

It's a gift for someone. An unnecessary gift. They're going to love it. Maybe. They like unnecessary things like this, anyway, and since it'll be from me they can't hate it. I just need to finish it before... I don't know, tomorrow? Or the day after. Before they die.
sleepingkogoro: (suave)

[personal profile] sleepingkogoro 2016-04-06 04:52 pm (UTC)(link)
I bet it is for Mettaton-kun.

[It is his immediate first theory, at least. A gift for the boyfriend]

He doesn't seem to me like he'll ever die. He is a robot and he says he is prepared for fighting. Whoever attacks him will get kicked into submission.

[He is putting a lot of stock onto Sigrun's promise Mettaton would be fine in her world. If she says he will be okay then Mouri is willing to believe that]
captainobnoxious: (43 yeah sure)

[personal profile] captainobnoxious 2016-04-06 04:58 pm (UTC)(link)
[HAAAAAAA look at that, you got her to nick herself with her carving knife, how nice, she's laughing it off. She brought bandages here for a reason and she's putting them to good use right now.]

Yeah, well, that bag of bolts is pretty something else! And he can die. It just takes beating him with a stick long enough, probably, just like with any machine. Doesn't mean you should to it though.
sleepingkogoro: (think)

[personal profile] sleepingkogoro 2016-04-06 05:30 pm (UTC)(link)
If you're willing to go take him to fight trolls then I'm willing to believe he'll be fine here in the Vault.

Monsters are strange. Apparently if you hit them it is the same than if you hit their soul. Mettaton-kun is the only one who is different.

I have no idea how they have managed to survive back in his world.

[Bless our fleshy bodies, humanity]
captainobnoxious: (20 boy is that shit broken)

[personal profile] captainobnoxious 2016-04-06 05:33 pm (UTC)(link)
[yyyeah..... he's different alright........]

Well, they generally don't kill each other back where he's from. Unlike the oldworlders. And I'm sure it's different between monsters, anyway, it's just that if a human hits them... it gets messier.

[personal profile] sleepingkogoro 2016-04-06 05:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Maybe that is why he asked Alphys to make a body for him, to not to be so weak when he encountered humans? Because he wasn't born a robot, that much is obvious. Apparently he transferred his soul onto that body.

At least that is what I deduced. He said I was in the right track but it seems I'm missing something about his true nature.

[A stellar moment in his stay in the Vault was to accurately deduce Mettaton was not always a robot. Not that it was too hard, tinman wasn't exactly being cagey about that]
captainobnoxious: (34 it's alright if you don't understand)

[personal profile] captainobnoxious 2016-04-06 05:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, you are on the right track. And you are also missing something. Do you really think he changed bodies just for humans?

[It's so obvious she knows.]
sleepingkogoro: (Default)

[personal profile] sleepingkogoro 2016-04-06 06:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Well I think that's the best reason I can think. Humans would be more likely to accept somebody who looks like them, even if it is a robot. If Mettaton-kun had appeared towards the masses like, I don't know, a eleven-foot tall green goblin I don't think fame and love would be what he would receive.

...maybe Mettaton isn't even his real name.

[Mouri is a bit annoyed Sigrun has the answers and he doesn't. It is understandable she would, at least]
Edited 2016-04-06 18:14 (UTC)
captainobnoxious: (26 hell yeah)

[personal profile] captainobnoxious 2016-04-06 06:15 pm (UTC)(link)
[Heheheh.

... Though she doesn't know if Mettaton's his real name or not. It's something to ask him, maybe, see if he'll answer her that too.]


Maybe, maybe not. Who can say? And it's a pretty good reason, yeah, you wouldn't be wrong in that he wouldn't be half as popular if he hadn't taken another form... It's just not the reason for it. Not that I can tell you anyway, I'm taking it to my grave.

[Whether that's sooner or later who knows.]
sleepingkogoro: (boisterous laugh)

[personal profile] sleepingkogoro 2016-04-06 06:35 pm (UTC)(link)
I'll find out the truth! There's no truth that stays hidden forever from the great detective Kogoro Mouri's sight! Bwaaahahaha!

[Somebody has regained his confidence, at least!]

I just need to think for a while longer. I'll find out!
captainobnoxious: (12 matter o' fact kids)

[personal profile] captainobnoxious 2016-04-06 06:46 pm (UTC)(link)
If you manage to figure it out on your own, good for you. And if you tell anyone after you get it confirmed, you'll find yourself on the wrong end of my knife.

[With a pointed flick of her wrist to boot, carving off a piece of the wood so casually.]

Understood, detective?
sleepingkogoro: (no way im wrong)

[personal profile] sleepingkogoro 2016-04-06 07:01 pm (UTC)(link)
...h-hey, there's no need to threaten me, captain. Just asking me to keep the secret would have been enough.

[Golly, Sigrun, what was that]

You make it sound like there's something really bad about Mettaton-kun.
captainobnoxious: (09 mmm!)

[personal profile] captainobnoxious 2016-04-06 07:03 pm (UTC)(link)
[She's an unnecessary guard dog.]

Nothing bad. In fact, it's pretty cute honestly, I'd still date him even if he was still in his first form and acted the way he did now. I just figure we should both be sworn to carry it to our graves.
sleepingkogoro: (this cant be right)

[personal profile] sleepingkogoro 2016-04-06 07:22 pm (UTC)(link)
That is kind of drastic. I don't think Mettaton-kun would be as self-conscious about his first form as you think he would be.

[If anything Mettaton would be proud of any form, in Mouri's opinion. That robot is 90% made of ego]
captainobnoxious: (56 go for it)

[personal profile] captainobnoxious 2016-04-06 07:41 pm (UTC)(link)
[Mouri really is just missing the final piece of this puzzle...]

It's just not something a star like him would like his adoring public to know, I'll say that much. So I'm safely guarding it.
sleepingkogoro: (Default)

[personal profile] sleepingkogoro 2016-04-06 08:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Something he wouldn't want his adoring public to know, and it goes beyond just being a monster. Hmmmm...

[Sudden theories are formed. Declaration time! With the usual loud voice he uses to proclaim the deductions he is particularly sure of, of course]

I see! He wanted to leave his former life behind!

There must have been something in his life he was unsatisfied with! Somehow he wouldn't be able to achieve fame and adoration if he wasn't the person he is now.

It could be something he did, or something about his family, or...no wait, he had mentioned cousins! And growing in Waterfall...

[Yeah, Sigrun, he isn't talking to you now. It almost seems like he forgot he was having a conversation, instead pacing around and muttering to himself like a madman]
captainobnoxious: (12 matter o' fact kids)

[personal profile] captainobnoxious 2016-04-06 08:49 pm (UTC)(link)
[Aaaah yes. There it goes.

... This isn't counted as breaking her promise to Mettaton, right? She didn't tell the detective anything important. He just put things together.]


Well, I won't tell you if you're right or not, 'cause it's not my place... but go ahead and tell him your theory next time you see him. He'll let you know if you're right or not.

[If Sigrun could learn to harness this power of Mouri's, then they could get through things a lot quicker. Guess it's time to learn to train dogs.]
sleepingkogoro: (boisterous laugh)

[personal profile] sleepingkogoro 2016-04-06 08:57 pm (UTC)(link)
[Oh. You are here. Mouri immediately shuts up. He also takes Sigrun's words as a confirmation]

I will!

Somehow Mettaton-kun was a mystery I wanted to solve. I don't know what he has that made him be so interesting to ponder. He really knows how to intrigue people. That is how celebrities work, I guess!

[Technically Mouri is a celebrity too but it isn't like he causes such intrigue in anybody]
captainobnoxious: (22 well well well)

[personal profile] captainobnoxious 2016-04-06 10:40 pm (UTC)(link)
[At least she didn't tell Mouri that he was a ghost who ran a snail farm with his ghostly family. The ultimate rags to riches story remains untold.]

Yeah, he's just like that, star status aside.

[Suuuuch fondness in her voice, though Sigrun's shrugging lightly. Being a celebrity really doesn't matter than much to her.]

He's pretty much the most interesting person here to me, and no matter how much I learn about him that won't change.
sleepingkogoro: (suave)

[personal profile] sleepingkogoro 2016-04-06 11:26 pm (UTC)(link)
[As if anyone would ever guess that part]

He talks the same way about you. You really are a good pair. Enough to make me jealous, at least.
