Week 2

Week 2

[The Champions have now been here for one week, and while the dud of a first incentive didn't tempt anybody, the fact remains obvious: a lack of murder isn't going to be the thing that gets you out of here.

Blaze Dudely and Rox have not made a reappearance since Tuesday, leaving you to your own devices for the moment. That door they entered and exited through remains locked, and there is no new area to access this week. Are you sure they're even still back there? Despite their absence, you all wake up on Sunday morning from strange dreams. What to make of it?

You can only hope it's not a bad omen for the rest of the week.]

Sunday | Monday | Tuesday | Wednesday | Thursday

It is.

[Karamatsu takes a few more breaths to steady himself, coughing another couple times into his elbow.]

Tobacco is nothing new, but...one would be incredibly hard pressed to find drugs like this if not involved in more shady dealings.

[Like the yakuza.]

Oooooh. [Max winces.] Don’t smoke that, dude, you’ll get all kinds of nasty cancer.

Heh...do not worry, I do not plan to.

[Though...Karamatsu eyes The Weed.]

And this won't give it to you?

Naaaaah. People with cancer take it sometimes to help with the pain. I think...there's been studies, and it helps tumors sometimes? Anyway. Same stuff as anything, just don't get high and drive a motor vehicle or whatever.

I will keep that in mind for when I have a car.

[He...cautiously tries another drag. He's still going to cough- and he does- but it's not as violent as the first time.]

Why do you think this was given out to you? I am a bit surprised...not that I think it is a bad thing, but that they would not mind us smoking on a space craft, I guess.

Dunno. I'd think...I'd think they wouldn't want us chill. I'd think they'd want us anti-chill.

[He nods like this is a serious revelation.]

Anti-chill...

[He repeats that, leaning back a little on one hand. It would be a lot funnier if he could say it in english as opposed to whatever universal translator is working on them right now.]

I guess weed would make someone less likely to commit a murder.

You'd think, right? Helps us not, like...stress out about this.

[Not that the situation isn't worth stressing out about. That's why drugs would help.]

Heh...do you figure we might get more weed, then? Enough for all of us...

[Then maybe nobody would have to die.]

Maybe? Maybe. I hope so.

[wouldn't it be loverly]

[Karamatsu will remember this when he gets weed the next time his dumbwaiter spits out items. He'll come running to Max's room all like....MAX-SAN I GOT WEED]

It is quite generous of you to be sharing it, regardless. You could just be keeping it to yourself.

It's a lot of weed, man. But, like...it's not fun smoking by yourself. Especially when everyone else suuuuuuper needs weed.

Edited 2017-10-29 21:20 (UTC)

Heh...that is fair! Everyone does super need weed, if it really does make you feel as calm as you say...it does seem like a pretty relaxing thing to do, just sitting here and enjoying it.

Wellll, it kinda works a little different on everyone. Might just get some people paranoid. Which wouldn't be great, but - we can see, right?

[Ruh Roh]

Ah...yes, I do hope it does not have that affect on me. I would not call myself a paranoid person, persay...

[Sweats]

Probably fine, then.

[Shrug. There's only one real way to find out.]

[That means it's time for more weed.]

I will have to tell Osomatsu about this. I have a feeling he would like to try it.

Huh. Yeeeeeeah, seems like he would. So like, how do people tell all six of you apart back home?

[here, it's presumably been pretty easy since Karamatsu got his sparkle pants]

Mm? Oh, well there are usually ways you can tell...they are not so noticeable to others, but they stand out to us. My eyebrows are thicker, Choromatsu's mouth is thinner, Ichimatsu's hair is usually unkempt, Jyushimatsu always hides his hands in his sleeves, and Todomatsu has large eyes.

Osomatsu...he is the benchmark of all of us, I guess you could say.

He's your Mario. [what]

Eh? What does Mario have to do with this?

You know how Mario's sorta the middle-of-the-road guy in all the games, and all the other characters are just variations on Mario? Like, Luigi jumps higher, but he slides everywhere, and Peach can do the floaty thing but she's not as strong? Mario's like, the baseline for all the rest. None of their strengths or weaknesses, and now that I'm explaining the whole thing out loud it kinda sounds like an insult? [Maybe a little.]

[I MEAN...YOU AREN'T WRONG]

Huh...I suppose I had not thought of that. I see what you are saying, though...we are identical, but we all have traits that make us unique.

And Osomatsu...

[...........]

Actually maybe it does sound a bit like an insult.

Well, I didn't really mean it like that. Just, uh. Making a weird observation.

It is okay, Max-san. I know what you meant. It is actually quite interesting, thinking about it that way. Perhaps this is just a trait of identical siblings? I do not actually know any other twins in real life, so.
