Week 5

[It's been five weeks (since you looked at me) and with the deaths of Shadow and Rukia, the group that was initially 20 strong has dwindled down to ten. Ten people in the span of a month and, even with the Overseers seeming increase in empathy for the remaining Champions, there is no end in sight for the Champion Excellence Program.

And again at 7 am on Sunday the mechanical woman's voice chimes to awaken the remaining champions on Sunday morning. After the initial wake-up call there is no new floor announcement this week.

And again the Champions are awakened they have regained one new memory from the ones they've lost. Starting again on Sunday, as well, Jamie and Bolton will be back to their usual office hours in their usual locations.]

Sunday Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday


[ooc: welcome to week 5, everyone! Check-in has begun and don't forget to submit your memory regains!]

[Mom is disappointed in your lack of dancing skills.]

... You get points for trying.

[tasteslikesurvival]

At least I'm trying!

[And not standing doing nothing.]

[bylight]

[........]

The steps are pretty basic if you want to learn them. [For the waltz like songs.]

[tasteslikesurvival]

I thought this was the way to dance to these kinds of songs. [No, that's flailing.]

[bylight]

[You look like you're having a seizure.]

If you're looking to beat someone, then you're doing it right.

[tasteslikesurvival]

Hey, hey, don't judge me.

[bylight]

Do you want to learn to dance or not?

[tasteslikesurvival]

Uh. Sure, I guess.

[bylight]

[Just going to walk up to Kurumi and take her hand.]

I don't know these songs, but I'm sure there's something slower to learn with.

[tasteslikesurvival]

O-oh, alright. I guess I can try.

[God. This is embarrassing but she might as well try.]

[bylight]

[What? Light not attractive enough? She can always go get Xander.

Just going to take Kurumi's other hand and just dance with her like how a dad would with his daughter. Including the occasional spin.]

See? It's not so bad.

[tasteslikesurvival]

[No, no she's fine! She's just embarrassed dancing with anyone like this.

She feels so girly. It's great.]

R-right! It's just a few steps.

[bylight]

[Thank Xander for loosening her up a bit and teaching her a few moves.]

First time dancing like this?

[tasteslikesurvival]

Y-yeah.

[bylight]

Before today it was the same for me. It's not as bad as I thought it would be.

[tasteslikesurvival]

Wait, then how did you learn?

[bylight]

Xander.

[Did you not see the two of them dancing?]

[tasteslikesurvival]

...Right. Yeah. I saw that.

[She was kind of trying not to.]

[bylight]

[Are you disappointed with mom?]

He's a pretty good teacher. Think he's the only one who knows how to actually dance here.

[tasteslikesurvival]

[No. She's disappointed that she didn't even realize Xander was teaching her.]

I bet he is, honestly.

[bylight]

[She's not a natural at everything, she'll admit that.]

He just... looks very intense.

[tasteslikesurvival]

[Lightning, you're not the Champion Prodigy.]

Yeah. Yeah he does.

[bylight]

[She doesn't want to be. At least you didn't freak out about the kiss like Yurika]

Even when he smiles...

[tasteslikesurvival]

[She probably sneezed during the kiss and didn't see it.]

Right. Right, yeah.

[bylight]

[Yurika ruined it by being Yurika.]

... you okay?
