Week 4

[The Champions have had their first deliberate murders this week, and just like that, Prompto and Lunafreya are gone. Slaine followed them shortly after, however most people may feel about that.

This time, C.E.C.E.'s addition to the morning announcement probably doesn't come as much of a surprise:]

Congratulations, Champions! By surviving your second trial, you have unlocked the third floor of the ship. A new mini map has been added to your P.I.P.! To access the second floor please stand on the teleporter and select the floor you wish to be teleported to.

[In addition to the new floor, the Champions will find that they've gained another memory this week.]


Sunday | Monday | Tuesday | Wednesday | Thursday



(( Welcome to Week 4! Don't forget to check in and submit your memory regains! Turn in your benefactor threads for sweet loot, too! ))

[Kaiba. She had no idea you were so pure and innocent!]

Nooormally I'd call that bullshit, but mummies in my world tend ta have been Egyptian royalty in life sooooooo I ain't got room ta doubt ya.

[She's just accepting all this tbh. Waaaay easier that way. Zombina snorts and giggles at the joke.]

Probably~! Heh, I didn't know they had heavy belt aesthetics and hair dye back in ancient Egypt. The more ya know!

[playthedamncard]

I don't think Yuugi went for that sort of thing before he completed the Puzzle, but...I didn't know him well then. [Spoilers: all the kinky gear is Yuugi's idea and Yami thinks his partner has shit taste.]

So there are mummies as well in your world? Let me guess, vampires and werewolves, ghosts and ghouls?

[theworldsliveliestcorpse]

Well I'm sure ya can ask him once we get outta here. Maybe we can make a bet on who's idea it was or something.

[They've got money to burn.]

Yup, Yup, Maybe, and Yup. We gotta loooootta liminal species. Like, I probably don't even know half of 'em!

[playthedamncard]

I'm not about to ask Mutou Yuugi or his imaginary friend about where he gets his fashion choices. [...first that's personal but second it would invite questions about his own fashion choices and maybe we shouldn't go there...]

...Would you want to go back where you're from? You seem to have fun doing your job.

[theworldsliveliestcorpse]

C'mon, arn't ya curious?

[C'mooooooon. Zombina blinks at the question posed to her.]

'Course I wanna. I can't just leave my teammates like that!

[Even if the world is a lil shitty sometimes, it's all good in the end.]

But that ain't gonna stop me from goin' on a vacation ta visit all of ya and stuff. Y'ain't gettin' rid of me that easily~!

[She tilts her head curiously.]

Why'd ya ask that, outta curiosity?

[playthedamncard]

You just seem so enthused about the idea of visiting my world, I had to wonder if maybe it's because you don't actually like your own.

[theworldsliveliestcorpse]

........ Okay yeah. M' world is kinda shit ta liminal species sometimes, but things have gotten way better over the three years since everyone found out.

[Way better. Zombina shrugs.]

It ain't fair of me ta just run away from the problems still there when I could be doin' somethin' ta change 'em or help out.

[playthedamncard]

And besides. Our zombies are purely fictional. We would hardly know how to treat you, and raiding morgues for new parts would be frowned upon.

[theworldsliveliestcorpse]

Yeaaaaaahhh.... that'd put a real damper on the whole living there thing.

[She pouts.]

Man, being dead is probably way easier as an ghost. Like your... not-boyfriend.

[She just jabs her thumb to point at Mr. Crazy Hair over there.]

[playthedamncard]

Like my what.

[theworldsliveliestcorpse]

Your not-boyfriend.

[She grins.]

Am I seriously the only one who's noticed... how ya talk 'bout him?

[playthedamncard]

[He could mention the confusion with Manaka, but that would add fuel to the fire. No thanks.] I haven't talked about him in any way that indicates other than being my rival.

[theworldsliveliestcorpse]

Ya did say ya knew he was...... full of surprises.~

[Grinning even wider.]

C'mon. I want ya ta think 'bout it. Would ya, or would ya not wanna date that?

[Gesturing at Yuugi here.]

[playthedamncard]

He is full of surprises. He always seems to pull the right card he needs at the last moment, he always vehemently sticks up for people even when they're wrong, he dresses like a goth hack, he's both a boy my age and the spirit of a pharaoh if you believe in that, and he's the top player and one of the only people to legitimately beat me in a duel.

Just because dueling against my rival makes my heart pound doesn't mean I want to go on a date with him.

[theworldsliveliestcorpse]

Kaiba-kun. Buddy. Pal. Friend o' mine.

[Zombina crosses her arms.]

Think back ta what ya just said... and tell me if that's not what ya want in a potential partner.

[playthedamncard]

Are you--are you serious?

[This is an incredulous silence for a few solid moment.]

Now you're not allowed to come to my world, because you'll try to set me up with him.

[theworldsliveliestcorpse]

Oh c'moooooooon! I won't talk ta him 'bout it.... I promiiiiise!

[Don't ban her from cardgameworld. Don't you dare.]

[playthedamncard]

He is my rival and I have better things to do than worry about anyone's love lives. [including his own obvs]

[theworldsliveliestcorpse]

Includin' yer own? C'mon, if not him than... what would ya look for in a partner?

[playthedamncard]

I wouldn't. It's none of your business. I have a company to run, tournaments to set up, amusement parks to open, a brother to raise, you think I have time for dating?
