[She's in her usual clothes. And then she'll pull out a note.
This note has a surprisingly well drawn bust of LWZ with Luo Yiguo asleep on his shoulder. There’s a little heart next to it. There's a very stylistic portrait of Yakumo in a maid dress, accompanied by a doodle of a frog in this style. Little doodles of Amelia, Simon, and Livio's heads are also on this note, not masterfully drawn but recognizable. Also, this guy is present. A G is scrawled in the corner but it looks like someone drunk drew it. Along the bottom of the note are three sharks colored yellow, purple and blue.
On the back there is a doodle of Kaveh in a jail cell, surrounded by dollar bills.]
Do you recognize anything here? I received it yesterday.
Oh. You're the only other person who's mentioned blacking out.
[ Wait. ]
To be fair I only asked three other people. Some of the messages we've gotten on Friday say to err on the side of caution when talking to the people who run the game.
It was a while back. I thought it was just something the reapers had done.
[ no reason to believe in the graveyard at the time... ]
But, yeah. Ylfa tried asking Ruby about some of the latest messages and nearly got in trouble. So be careful. And if you need the notes we got last Friday, let me know.
[ how is she always so gracious about this. so professional. even as a stoic, he pales in comparison.
her words are pretty sad though. ]
...I feel like we cornered you. [ This avoids the most bloodshed. But it still hurts you. ] I was part of that. Even if I think you're a good person. So, I'm sorry.

Are these... gondolas?
no subject
It looks that way. They're common in some places in Italy, if I remember correctly.
no subject
Italy... like Venice?
[ he's going to look for a boat they can commandeer. hehe. ]
I've never been outside of Japan.
no subject
[Not for realsies since this does feel like a tourist trap.]
no subject
[ they're technically travelling abroad by being here, though it's the worst vacation ever ]
Are we supposed to be enjoying the downtime...?
no subject
Best to be well rested before getting to work.
[ Especially with the kind of work they're doing. ]
no subject
...So you think it'll happen again. [ every thursday. ]
no subject
It would be ideal if it didn't, but it feels like there's a slim chance of that.
no subject
A lot of people seem to think so.
no subject
What do you think?
no subject
...I don't know. [ or he does, but he doesn't want to admit anything ] It doesn't have to happen. [ the murdering. ] But not everyone believes that.
no subject
It doesn't have to. [Thoughtfully, but not particularly convinced.]
no subject
Mm. What do you think happens now?
[ or really, what does she intend to do? ]
no subject
We'll have to deal with whatever happens this weekend.
w5: Thursday
I seem to have received a message. I'm interested if you can recognize anything within it.
Are you free?
no subject
[ he does owe them. she can either text or meet him outside his warehouse. ]
no subject
[She's true to her word, and she's there quickly.]
How are you holding up?
no subject
...I should be asking you that.
no subject
[She's in her usual clothes. And then she'll pull out a note.

no subject
looks like some people had a good time.
he points to the This Guy. ]
That's Iwatobi-chan. My school mascot.
[ next, the G. ]
...Gerard?
[ points to sharks ]
Sharks.
...Not sure what the colors are supposed to mean. Can I take a picture of this?
no subject
Do you think Rin drew this... strange bird?
[She'll let him take a picture.]
I've also been trying to figure out the colors of these sharks. I don't think anybody is particularly associated with yellow.
no subject
[ either way, PROBABLY a teammate?
he tilts his head at the sharks. ]
What about Fei Du or Libby? Neither of them liked yellow?
no subject
[She shakes her head.]
I don't think I've seen any of us in yellow. [Kyoko's colors are black, white, gold and pink, so... maybe?]
no subject
[ he looks over the sharks again with a hum. ]
This looks pretty stupid. [ BLUNTLY ] Maybe they got drunk and sent us doodles.
[ he's not mad about it. it's a nice sign that they might be doing okay. ]
Or the sharks could be three people signing the letter.
no subject
[ The G definitely looks like somebody drunkenly drew it, so she's not against the thought. ]
It seems like more than three people drew on it.
no subject
But it's good that they can send something physical. I thought it'd just be those spam messages.
no subject
I blacked out on Wednesday and received this. So... However it got here, we don't seem to be allowed to see it.
no subject
[ this whole thing is extremely weird ]
I've blacked out and received a bouquet before. I don't really know what that's about. I'll ask if it's something the reapers can do...
no subject
[ Wait. ]
To be fair I only asked three other people. Some of the messages we've gotten on Friday say to err on the side of caution when talking to the people who run the game.

[ no reason to believe in the graveyard at the time... ]

no subject
I shared my note with Wolfwood. Did you get more than one?
no subject
[ but he doesn't want to get the reapers in trouble. they're not all-powerful. ]
No, if you got his then that's fine. ...We'll try to be careful. And get everyone back.
no subject
[ Sometimes your boss is doing something you wish they wouldn't. ]
Let me know how I can help you two. My door is open.

...This place is nice. [ though he's dressed in a winter outfit, so he's prepared for the elements. ]
no subject
Somebody has definitely forced a coat on her, but it does seem a bit too large, even with the way it's tied up so she can't trip on it.]
It's considerably more pleasant than the caves.
no subject
he separates out the bundle of dried grass he has, handing her some to feed the reindeer. ]
I don't mind the caves. Besides the lava. [ it has TWO water locations, he is a simple lad ] But Christmas all the time is pretty fun.
no subject
[She'll take some of it and start feeding the friendliest looking one.]
Who do you usually spend it with?
w6 ; saturday
[ he'll just sit on a park bench a respectful distance away. ]
I'm sorry.
no subject
About what?]
It's been a bad week, but at least it'll end soon.
no subject
her words are pretty sad though. ]
...I feel like we cornered you. [ This avoids the most bloodshed. But it still hurts you. ] I was part of that. Even if I think you're a good person. So, I'm sorry.
no subject
You should have. I was guilty. [I wish it didn't turn out that way.] It was going to hurt either way. I'm alone so... It's only reasonable.
A good person... well. I try to be.
no subject
It's not like you were the only guilty one. Even if it's reasonable—it's still not fair.
[ None of this is fair. I wish it could be. ]
no subject
Fair isn't really part of this game. I think we all have to accept that.
w7 ; mon
...Glad to hear from you so soon, Kuremi-san.
no subject
It's nice to see everyone again, with everything reaching an ending soon.
no subject
...It should, soon. [ hopefully??? ] Are you safe where you are?
no subject
Yes, we're safe here. It seems like some people went on some special missions, butotherwise nothing to worry about.
no subject
[ he fucking hates those things :) ]
I heard things were merging. Between our two Shibuyas. ...Try not to let anything too weird happen.
no subject
She also hates them. ]
I'm not sure I'm in charge of that. But I'll do what I can.
