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

[ She smiles a little at that, against all odds, because Elliot is such a good person and she likes the way he handles matters here. ]

It doesn't seem like she had any knowledge of her fiance's plans, so it would be unfair to judge her for his wrongdoings... She may be hurting more than all of us.

I don't think anyone else knew Mr Asch from home, so you might be in the best place to understand her, still..

Yeah, that's exactly how I feel about it.

I don't know how much I can help with protecting her or anything, but... if there's anything I can do to help her out, that's gotta account for something, right?

Definitely. It's not all about protection and physical needs being met - otherwise, we wouldn't need service professionals. Being supportive and providing stability are important components of ensuring someone's well-being.

So there is a lot you can do.

[ It's interesting how words can come to you when you cheer others up, words that you wouldn't tell yourself. ]

[That earns a smile. Kinda hard not to believe Rhoda on this when it's literally her job!]

Yeah, you're right. Thanks again.

I really don't know how I'd be holding up if it weren't for people like you around here.

[ ... and if she's honest, she can say likewise, because having people to help out is a major stabilizer for her. Kind of pathetic to say that out loud though. ]

It's nothing, we're roommates after all. That is as good as a team here.

[And from a smile into a little grin, because Elliot is nothing if not a tiny dork.]

Hehe. I like the sound of that. Team Roomie!

Team Roomie!

[ She repeats it a little hesitantly, being more used to repeating slogans than cheers, but hey! It's nice. ]

We have your and Machias' experience with crisis situations and Ms Misora's crime solving experience combined in our room, so it's not a bad team set-up at all.

[yeah!! the fact that this is extremely dorky is lost on Elliot, sorry Rhoda.]

Ahaha, I don't know how "experienced" we actually are, but we'll do our best to live up to your expectations! [On their honor as members of Class VII, and all that. He's sure Machias would say the same.] But yeah, I think we're a pretty solid team overall!

Experience with a civil war is more life experience than most people can boast of.

[ Well, being dragged into a war is probably generally not something worth boasting about, but Elliot's involvement is...? Yes. ]

Don't sell yourself short.

...I'll try not to. [It's still hard to do that, but everyone keeps reminding him of that.] Best I can promise, though.

Very good. Taking pride in your own abilities is something nobody can take from you, after all.
