Week 1

[After the reveal of their handsome and well-dressed but stern-looking Overseer on Sunday, the Champions were left to their own devices in investigating the mall to their hearts' content. At around 10 pm every night the lights in all the shops will go down and the sturdy metal grates over the doors of the restaurants will go down. The stores will remain unlocked, though.

On Monday morning, a buzzing alarm chirps at them again from their PIPs at 7 am on the dot. There's also a pop-up message waiting for them: a notice announcing Xander will be holding office hours

Enjoy your week, Champions.]

You believe what the Merchant Prince is saying, Bubbles? Nothing is impossible if you keep a rational mind about it.

[ratherdoweddings]

...Bubbles?

[everylittlesecret]

That's you. Because you are way too bubbly for me.

[ratherdoweddings]

I'm just trying to be helpful.

[everylittlesecret]

And I never asked for that. Sorry, Bubbles, I'm not a people person, and if I want help, I know how to help myself.

[ratherdoweddings]

Are you really going to be like this? They want us to be isolated and pit against each other.

[everylittlesecret]

I literally live in an isolated place back home where no one would miss me for weeks or ever if I went missing. You all are the ones who think that teaming up will prevent killing. That's how killers find their targets.

[ratherdoweddings]

So... you think that not making friends or cooperating will make you not a target for anybody.

[everylittlesecret]

No, I'm aware it will paint a target on my back. That's why I don't tell anyone here what I can do unless it's public knowledge. Whoever targets me would have to have some brass balls to go after a wildcard.

[ratherdoweddings]

So you're just going to be paranoid. I think I preferred Togami-san. At least he's a helpful paranoid jerk, even if he still isn't very sociable.

[everylittlesecret]

Paranoid has kept me alive my entire life, so it's at least helping me. And I am as sociable as any librarian is. Which isn't much.

[ratherdoweddings]

Librarian... okay.

[You're totally not a back alley yakuza doctor. Wait, what is Yurika saying, her occupation's wrong too.]

I guess you can do what you want, but we're still going to try and get everybody out of here.

[everylittlesecret]

[Back alley yakuza doctor who also serves two kings, excuse you.]

Good luck with that. Dickountat seemed pretty set on someone killing someone else.

[ratherdoweddings]

[giggle] Oh! Sorry. He just really does look like an angry accountant.

[everylittlesecret]

Right? I thought he was in the wrong place when he showed up!

[ratherdoweddings]

If it weren't for the sword, I'd think they just brought him in from payroll. ...However evil kidnappers who own malls pay their employees, I guess.

[everylittlesecret]

Maybe the sword is just for show. Like a dick extension to intimidate us.

[ratherdoweddings]

A d-- [Yurika turns red and stifles laughter.] You're terrible! You think?

[everylittlesecret]

May as well be. A man like that with an actual sword? Way too unlikely unless he's one of those who tries to emulate the handsome models on the front of romance novels.

[.....]

Think we could get him to take his shirt off and pose with the sword?

[ratherdoweddings]

You're a pervert.

[everylittlesecret]

I'm European, Bubbles.... though those two things seems to go hand in hand a lot of times.

[ratherdoweddings]

I guess that's true. I mean, I've seen French movies and people are going around topless.

[everylittlesecret]

No, that's just the French.
