WEEK 3

WEEK 3


[As Marie said: so much for trust and resolve. Two people are dead, and there is very little anyone can do about it now, no matter how much they would have wanted to sacrifice themselves.

In particular, with Marie's words during the trial, it's clear that time is limited. Or is it? Marie is also capable of omitting the truth when it serves her needs, especially when it comes towards the Strangers and their still-missing memories. In any case, one can only hope they don't fall for her tricks again, even though getting away with murder would - apparently - save at least one life.

There is something else, as well. When everyone wakes up the morning, they will find that information on their wristwatches has been updated to reflect their new number - and something new about their powers. Not only that, but a new floor has opened up above Floor 1 for everyone to explore. Maybe more can be found on just what, exactly, is going on.

Is Marie telling the truth? Is the universe really ending? Or is it just another means of getting what she wants? Whatever is happening, people will need to be more careful around her - and one another. Who knows what Marie will offer next - or what your roommate or new friend is now capable of as a result. Especially since it's now known, thanks to Marie's actions during the trial, that everyone has definitely lost some memories. And unfortunately, no one seems to have regained any of them so far - or if anyone has, they haven't said a word.

If trust and resolve was ever needed, it feels like now is the time to try and find all that.

There are thirteen people in this place.]

FINALLY I CAN BRING HIS DISGUSTING RP TO THE LIGHT

[personal profile] losergod 2018-08-01 07:10 pm (UTC)(link)
[ He disappears with his egg into the artroom immediately, only to reemerge with... this. Painted face. He took the time to make her pretty. And he seems to be working on making her clothes, now. He makes a little voice-- ]

Hello, world!

Hello, Charlotte!

[ ... He is way too into this oh god. ]

[personal profile] backuphero 2018-08-01 07:35 pm (UTC)(link)
[How is his roommate this cute, what the heck - and wow, he went in on the face. Grant's somewhat shakily scribbled suggestion of a face and hair don't measure up at all.]

Well, hello, Miss Charlotte, C. Might I introduce you to my son?

[Well... he always was the one more into playing house as a kid, if he's honest....]
losergod: (C59)

[personal profile] losergod 2018-08-01 07:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Of course, Mister Morris!

[ He is a pro actor. He is very into his role. ]

Socializing IS very important for your children, after all.
backuphero: (Default)

[personal profile] backuphero 2018-08-01 08:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Absolutely. Can't learn everything from books and stories at home, can you?

[He wiggles the egg he holds as though it's nodding disagreement, and then sighs.]

Come on, now, you know better. Dunno where he gets it, kid's shy... come on, say hello.

[And he's aiming for Pinocchio with this voice, honestly -]

Hi, Charlotte.
losergod: (Charlotte8)

[personal profile] losergod 2018-08-01 08:45 pm (UTC)(link)
[ He is absolutely unashamed in moving his egg and everything look at that smile on his face he was born to embarrass everyone. This is it this is him he is the roleplayer it's him. ]

Hello! What kinds of things do you like? I like books and magcats!
theserpentsmiles: (It's time to burn it down)

WE HAVE AN EGGNAPPER ON THE LOOSE!

[personal profile] theserpentsmiles 2018-08-01 09:42 pm (UTC)(link)
[Hey, C, where's your egg? It's gone!]
losergod: (Dragged.)

[personal profile] losergod 2018-08-01 10:44 pm (UTC)(link)
[ This is not okay. Commence freaking out and upset and searching for his Precious Girl!!!!!! ]
theserpentsmiles: (It's time to burn it down)

[personal profile] theserpentsmiles 2018-08-01 10:52 pm (UTC)(link)
[It'll take until he checks the onsen!!

Because Nagisa is there bathing himself, but he's got a bowl of onsen water set aside where the two egg girls are resting in little egg-sized towels. Their previous clothes are set neatly to the side, away from where they'll get wet.]

Hello, C.
losergod: (Charles22)

[personal profile] losergod 2018-08-01 10:55 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't think I gave you permission to take Miss Wiltshire on a day-trip, Mister Shiota. Kidnapping is a terrible parenting practice.

[ HE IS LOOKING VERY STERN AND UPSET. ]
theserpentsmiles: (It's time to burn it down)

[personal profile] theserpentsmiles 2018-08-01 11:02 pm (UTC)(link)
So is allowing your child to be kidnapped. I wasn't mean to her.

[He just. Changed her clothes, and now he's bathing both eggs. He's helping!] Besides, she and Tamako-chan are really good friends.
losergod: (Charles14)

[personal profile] losergod 2018-08-01 11:05 pm (UTC)(link)
[ A lengthy pause. ]

It is unfortunately very within her personality to wander off with strangers due to her friendliness. But I would never risk exposing her to harm in the kitchen at her age.

[ There's knives in there my dude. It's dangerous for a young egg. ]

You play to win, don't you, Mister Shiota?
theserpentsmiles: (I won't be pushed around)

[personal profile] theserpentsmiles 2018-08-01 11:23 pm (UTC)(link)
That is wise...though maybe if you kept her close, you could protect her all the same. [And she wouldn't get kidnapped!]

...With this kind of game, I do. There's something I want to know, and it wouldn't be fair if I didn't give it my all.
losergod: (C50)

[personal profile] losergod 2018-08-01 11:35 pm (UTC)(link)
And be the kind of overbearing parent that constantly forces his child to be in his line of sight? Listen, my girl can make her own decisions once in awhile.

[ His parenting is very hands-off half the time. Literally, considering he tends to be possessing somebody else to parent. ]

I would never do that. Looking after her is one thing, but dictating her life to her is another entirely.
theserpentsmiles: (Get back or just get out)

[personal profile] theserpentsmiles 2018-08-01 11:52 pm (UTC)(link)
[That strikes something in Nagisa, and one hand flies to the beaded braid behind his right ear. C has struck a nerve!]

....That's good. [Sorry, he...needs a moment.]
losergod: (C26)

[personal profile] losergod 2018-08-01 11:57 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Oh he noticed that. ]

Is there a problem, Mister Shiota?

[ He's watching veeeeery closely, with curiosity. ]
theserpentsmiles: (Get back or just get out)

[personal profile] theserpentsmiles 2018-08-02 12:05 am (UTC)(link)
...It's nothing.

[No, it's very much something. He sinks into the water a bit deeper.]

You just said something that reminded me of my mom.
losergod: (C62)

[personal profile] losergod 2018-08-02 12:12 am (UTC)(link)
[ ... He can't continue to be cruel to a kid. Even if Nagisa is probably going to win, he just... thinks he'll accept the memory loss. After all, he was having memory troubles before all of this. Even though some of them have returned, and others haven't yet, that's no one's fault.

Certainly not his. Perhaps it's the Observer in him, but he wants to help. He'll make sure his egg is comfortable and then sit by the water. ]


You know, it wouldn't be the first time I've seen that sort of reaction. I have helped raise at least one actual person. She looked a lot like this egg.

[ God, does he miss her. ]

... I'm guessing your mother left quite an impression on you?

[ It's not how he'd phrase it, for his own, really. "An impression". More like "baggage". ]
theserpentsmiles: (Set this pain up in flames)

[personal profile] theserpentsmiles 2018-08-02 12:23 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah. ...She wanted a daughter.

[Four words that tell a whole story. Especially with what, exactly, it was that hit a nerve.]

She's getting better, but it had to get really bad first.
losergod: (Gentle.)

[personal profile] losergod 2018-08-02 12:27 am (UTC)(link)
You... had a chance to get better? That's really fortunate. Mine never... really got past wanting a daughter. Wanting my sister, really.

[ He chuckles. ]

She refused to even call me by my real name.
theserpentsmiles: (The dreams you had are hard to remember)

[personal profile] theserpentsmiles 2018-08-02 12:45 am (UTC)(link)
She's trying, at least. I think the threat of leaving altogether made her reconsider. I don't remember the details super-well, I was still kind of drugged.

[Um???]

She kept trying to raise me as a girl and refused to let me make any decisions for myself - she wouldn't even let me get a haircut.
losergod: (Look down.)

[personal profile] losergod 2018-08-02 12:51 am (UTC)(link)
That's... pretty bad.

[ Jeez. ]

I don't think my mother meant ill. I suppose I was lucky. She was just... incapable of seeing anyone but Scarlett Eyler when she looked at me. My sister died. She never got over it. I was her caretaker because she was ill and my father left a long time ago. I... tried not to let it bother me, but...

[ He's quiet for a moment. ]

My "sister" haunted me for a long time. I was trying to become a doctor to take care of her. To help her. ... Really, she wasn't the problem. The problem was me. Ultimately, you're very fortunate. You're still mostly mentally together, aren't you?
theserpentsmiles: (Set this pain up in flames)

[personal profile] theserpentsmiles 2018-08-02 01:00 am (UTC)(link)
[Grief....does things to people. Last week was proof enough of that. It sounds like C's family had it much worse than Nagisa's.]

I never had any siblings. My mom had a lot she wanted out of life that she didn't get, so she had an inferiority complex - she wanted a daughter to live her ideal life that she didn't get to have. Projecting.

Instead she got me.... I wouldn't ever be good enough, just for being a boy, but that didn't stop her from trying. She got worse after dad left her, and even worse after I dropped into Class E.

Mostly together, yeah.
losergod: (Charles6)

[personal profile] losergod 2018-08-02 01:07 am (UTC)(link)
I don't think I could say that.

[ He frowns. ]

This body isn't mine. I'm glad it's not. I have a lot of freedoms now I didn't used to have back when I was a normal human, before I died. I wasn't really... okay, back then. I couldn't look at most people normally. I had medication for my illness, but there wasn't exactly a cure, just treatment for some of the symptoms. My hallucinations were very serious.

... I guess they still are, at times. Akira... I couldn't... look at him.

[ He feels sick just thinking about it. ]
theserpentsmiles: (The dreams you had are hard to remember)

[personal profile] theserpentsmiles 2018-08-02 01:29 am (UTC)(link)
[There's that...vessel...business again. And he's dead? And an illness... And he had thoughts on cleanliness too, didn't he?

Akira. He's had such a profound impact on all of them....maybe that's what happens when someone dies? You start remembering, in sharper detail, everything you can of their life.]

It sounds like you've had it rough.... I'm sorry. ....Is there anything I can do to help?
losergod: (C28)

[personal profile] losergod 2018-08-02 01:33 am (UTC)(link)
[ He says it stoney-faced: ]

We find a way to get anyone here that dies a new vessel. We have to bring him and everyone else back. If he's anything like me... it'll be the same thing. When I died... well, I can't quite remember everything, but it was something like that. Surely he could live again.
