week 8

Week 8
Sunday - Thursday


Whatever hopes you had going into the final trial have been dashed—after the execution, most of you were left with that unfortunate revelation, those bitter betrayals, and a lingering sense of regret over your failures. Even now, some of you may find it difficult to feel joy over the fact that everything is almost at an end. Understandably so, and even if things had been different, there's nothing that would erase your knowledge of the Emperor's ominous warning; a warning you either failed to heed or simply didn't know how to prevent.

In order to get through this new week, you will all need to pull yourselves together and work as a team. Some of you have already begun the process of trying to piece everything together. It's a start, but there's still much for you to discuss. After all, it wouldn't do to just suddenly discard all that information given to you, would it?

This week there aren't any new areas for you to explore. The only change in scenary comes from the sakura tree, and it's one that's hard to miss. The tree stands tall, branches full and lively, and the entire area around it seems that much more vibrant for it. The tree is in full bloom, a clear sign that your time in this castle has come to an end.

Anyone who tries to come too close to the tree will find themselves blocked by a white barrier.


SURVIVING WARRIORS: 9

A... barrier? [He hasn't gone outside yet, okay.] ...Great. In my experience, barriers are never a good sign.

[SIGH.]

Wait, really? Ugh... that just makes that entire place worse. [A pause, and when he speaks up again, it's softer.] ...Tiki hated it, too. The armory. She was so upset when that place opened up...

Honestly? No. That's always been my friend's thing. But all I know is that usually when there are barriers, there's some big "trial" we gotta overcome. At least, that's how it usually winds up working back home.

[...aaaand then Majima falls apart and Elliot panics, although only about half of it shows externally.]

I- um- Majima, I didn't mean... [To make him more upset? To imply anything? He doesn't know what to say.]

[Elliot doesn't look quite like he believes that, biting at his bottom lip.]

Are you sure...? It's... I really didn't mean anything by it. I promise. I was just thinking out loud, and it was stupid, and... I'm sorry.
maddogs: (oh just the thought of you)

[personal profile] maddogs 2017-09-22 03:25 am (UTC)(link)
Ain't got shit ta apologize ta me for, Elliot-kun. I'm the one that did it like that.

[hhhh YOU MAKE IT REAL DIFFICULT TO KEEP TRYING TO BE NICE TO YOU MAJIMA]

...Yeah. I know that. [It's never far from his mind. The blanket nest is nice, but the emptiness where Misora should be is overwhelming.] But... it's like I told you.

There's not really any point in pointing fingers at anyone anymore. Not at you, not at Zero. We're all we've got left against the Sage - we need to work together.

The last thing I wanna do is make you feel like you're not a part of that.
