Week 2

Friday's harrowing events are clear in the minds of manyfirst and foremost, the death of Rika Furude, and of course the reveal and subsequent "sentencing" of Asch the Bloody. It also serves well as a reminder to everyone that the gloves are off, there won't be an easy way out for anyone and it is unlikely that there will be an option to 'wait it out' in the hopes of not participating in this 'game'. Or, as The Sage and The Teishu put it:

The Challenge.

Despite how you felt about the trial, it's likely that some rest would be welcome after all that transpired. Fortunately, some of your fellow warriors have taken it upon themselves to provide a reprieve of sorts, if you'd rather not be alone.

As if the events of the trial are supposed to be nothing but routine, dawns comes once more Sunday morning, punctuated with the sound of the rooster crowing obnoxiously. Any light sleepers hoping for their rest to not be disturbed may find themselves disappointed. Though, if anyone should wish, they may feel free to try to fall back asleep.

But, maybe that time can be better spent wandering. It seems that some places may have mysteriously unveiled themselves. It might do well to check them out. Or not. How anyone chooses to spend their time is ultimately up to them.



SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY

My home is my vessel. Which I don't have at the moment.

[But does he really need it right now?]

Aha... ha. Um.

Let's get that cleaned up, and then I can teach you how to crack an egg for cooking.

Ignoring a precarious situation that might not have a happy ending?

[ This is too close to admitting it's hopeless for his taste. ]

Indeed. If not we could try something else.

[ she shakes her head ]

I never did outlandish experiments such as this back home in the castle. This is new to me.

What sorts of things to do you look for when you make those evaluations?

[personal profile] pseudoregelia 2017-08-15 04:52 pm (UTC)(link)
If I get any useful information, I'll probably share it with everyone. [So long as she can find a good venue for it...]

Is that acceptable?
pseudoregelia: (it's so lonely.)

[personal profile] pseudoregelia 2017-08-15 04:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Even if we were investigating, the killers weren't interested in killing us, at least.

[This is. Sort of a lie but look, murder was not generally their objective when it came to interacting with Ayumu and Hiyono, so. It's fine.]

A lot of things that it's hard to be specific. New lands, new people, new adventures-- it's a life style I thoroughly enjoy.
pseudoregelia: (lonely.)

Are you sure? If you asked me, you're getting a failing grade when it comes to the friends department.
pseudoregelia: (I live to make you free)

[personal profile] pseudoregelia 2017-08-15 07:31 pm (UTC)(link)
[...Oh dear.]

Were you able to figure out how to use it?
presomnia: (burning holes right through the dark)

[personal profile] presomnia 2017-08-15 07:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh. Okay.

[she doesn't...really completely realize the problem...... the egg is cracked??? but she's going to find a towel or something to help wipe down the counter with anyway.]

I still can't understand how they did it. Or at least: I can understand how they might have brought most people, but not how they did it so cleanly. Unless this is a self-contained universe . . .

[Which is possible, she supposes, but it seems unlikely. Rosalind loses herself in thought for a few seconds, then refocuses and adds:]

In any case: if I were still in a position to publish papers, this certainly would be a wealth of research material.

Well, you're not in your castle right now. You could take this game as your chance to do stuff you can't do over there.

[Even something as simple as throwing a coconut into the oven can be a new experience]

tiki is a pleasure and a joy i need you to know this

[personal profile] divertimento 2017-08-15 08:13 pm (UTC)(link)
[Yes, Tiki, it is cracked. It is also not particularly usable in the process of making food.

But okay, he'll let her clean up that thing that just happened, and then he takes an egg and the bowl and shifts to the side a bit so she can see easier.]


We need to get the inside out of the shell and into this bowl so we can mix it up. Without getting the shell in there, because that's not gonna be good to eat. So, what we do is...

[He raps the egg twice against the side of the bowl to get a nice crack, then separates the shell into two halves and lets the yolk and white drop into the bowl.]

See? Like that!
presomnia: (flicking fire like saltwater)

she's an idiot is what she is

[personal profile] presomnia 2017-08-15 09:14 pm (UTC)(link)
[Tiki watches, impressively intense in her focus, before she takes another egg, brings the bowl a little less carefully than she could to the very edge of the counter so she can reach better, and more carefully repeats what Elliot's done: a gentle couple of raps against the side of the bowl, and then a proper attempt at splitting the egg to get the contents into the bowl.]

Got it!

Of course. Swapping is the best version of economy we have right now.

[ She is oddly satisfied with how this conversation went even though absolutely nothing got accomplished whatsoever. ]

[ ...blinks ]

E-Eh? Really? You would give it to me?

[ Even if she couldn't use it to fight, it would make a pretty nice decoration. Plus it reminds her of the old days. ]

Of course! You said that it is something that you have used correct? I believe you would be the rightful owner for this sword, not I.

[ even if it is a replica. ]

Your Raye may be a bit softer a person than Mr Edgeworth... but that's so sweet to hear.

[ She smiles a little, despite Naomi's gloomy self-submerging. ]

Maybe there is no greater motivator than having someone amazing wait for you at home.

[ This is definitely dangerous, far more dangerous than anything this Raye may have imagined... but life doesn't separate lovers like that, right? .... nevermind Asch and Natalia, really. ]

Well, not these exact ones, our swords looked a bit different, but...

[ looking at the sword. then at natalia. then at the sword. and back at natalia. ]

I-If you're certain, then I can't refuse such a generous gift...!

[ the look on her face is kind of goofy but can be construed as "teary-eyed", "awestruck", "shocked", or all three.

TOO BAD SHE DOESN'T KNOW THERE'S MORE THAN ONE OF THESE THINGS IN THE POND. ]
