w0 saturday the first

[squirt]

[ sometimes he isn't in the pool. occasionally. right now he's in the subway station, using his phone as a flashlight, frowning slightly. ]

...There's still trains running.

[roseoftexas]

[ hello dreamwidth username squirt. also i don’t believe you, this man has gills. ]

Ah. The shadow people seem to be living a regular life, even with all this going on. Train travel and all.

[squirt]

[ he wishes he had gills, cowboy.

he sighs, tired. ]

Then why can't we seem to use them...?

w2 ; sat

[squirt]

[ sorry for checkin you out today at trial bro

no, haru is just chilling around some body of water. the lake i guess, since we didn't get a new one this week.

he flops back into the grass, when he notices shu. hello. ]

[roseoftexas]

[ it's fine, extend's shu thirst is justified.

he is just wondering if this mad lad is ever out of water for more than nine hours for trial? ]

Enjoying that?

[squirt]

[ he is not. he hasn't actually gotten in the water yet, but even its proximity is clearly doing something for haru's mood; it's still dark and sad, but less oppressive to deal with. ]

Mm. [ he always does. quietly, ] It helps. After days like these.

w3, tuesday

[roseoftexas]

[ every time i have to type "squirts" into my search bar to bring up this pc i want to fight you.

anyway, shu is outside the mime coffee shop from hell, squinting in the window like he's trying to solve a particularly complicated math problem. or how to get in and get coffee without disturbing the mimes ]

[squirt]

[ ehe! ]

...What are you doing?

[ haru is exiting the mime danger zone safely. he has one of those collapsible cardboard carriers with a couple different drinks. ]

[roseoftexas]

[ soots. ]

Trying to figure out the best way to get in and out without making eye contact with the mimes.

[ the hideous, weird little mime creatures. ]

w4, monday

[roseoftexas]

[ hi nu, i chose a memory ]

[squirt]

[ memwee...

all things considered, the memory itself is peaceful; nothing violent happens. it may as well be set at any breakfast table. but of course, the content is more complicated. he looks a little alarmed, but then thoughtful. as shu knows now, his team is mostly murderers, so. he's acclimating to this. ]

...You must be good at what you do. [ delivered neutrally, but it's true, isn't it? to kill other killers, you must be good at what you do.

[roseoftexas]

[ memowee….. ]

…

I’m trying to figure out if you’re taking this better after what happened last week, or if you’re internally freaking out. Or both.

w4, saturday

[roseoftexas]

[ comes to get one last pc in with you for the road. ]

Hey.

[squirt]

[ now you know that alli and i have to fight to the fucking death to die tomorrow but

he's chilling at the pool, his legs in the water. ]

Shu. [ ... ] Sorry. I just turned the lights off out of habit. [ to save on his electricity bill... ] I'd never frame you guys.

[roseoftexas]

[ shut the heck up. nutrayal. ]

It was easily cleared up. Bad timing with whoever nicked my pin though, not that it matters in the long run.

w5 ; tues

[squirt]

[ only options are hot springs or lake, so they can meet at the lake. he's getting a fishing line ready. ]

I wonder if any plants grow in this water... [ no sun ): ]

[roseoftexas]

[ that's what i thought you say, you dumb fuckin' dolphin. THE LAKE. ]

...

Are there plants in the deep ocean?

[ haru seems like he'd Know ]

w5 ; sat

[squirt]

[ gonna look for him!!! binch!!!!!

he just brings him a water bottle. ]

...Sorry.

:meow:

[roseoftexas]

[ a gift of water from haru himself... ]

What for?

w6 ; mon

[squirt]

[ he's getting himself a hot beverage as the snow comes down, just watching it idly. ]

Hey, Shu.

[roseoftexas]

[ hmmmm. ]

Hey. Snow new for you, or are you used to it?

w6, friday???

[roseoftexas]

[ what did you do nu ]

[squirt]

[ NOTHING WOW anyway it's more like pre trial he's running up to shu ]

Shu. Can you ask the Reapers something for us today? Or make sure someone does.

w6, saturday post trial

[roseoftexas]

[ smacks you with my paw. ]

...

[ anyway he's probably somewhere in the snow around the forest area, bundled up and smoking because oof. a day. ]

[squirt]

[ he'll show up, and he's no longer cursed to be clingy so he'll just chill with him in the snow a safe manly distance away. ]

...Thanks. We would've asked, but we thought it would look too suspicious.

[ but he made him do an unpleasant thing so he's sorry. ]
