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.]

...Nari, that was brave of you. He wanted you to break and try to point to Church, but you didn't.

[There's a quiet rage burning in her chest. The fact that she feels bad for that now? She had quiet contempt for the man before, but now it's downright loud.]

He hurt you instead because there was nothing else he could do.

[everylittlesecret]

... I don't know... I barely know Church, but it hurt to even think about betraying him... And I think I knew he'd do the same?

[It's strange to have feelings like this over a still practical stranger.]

I just hope he doesn't hate me... I think Xander wants us to turn on each other.

[tokencanadian]

You must certainly trust him then. [She actually smiles a little.] that's good... isn't it?

[Ah... she nods.]

I'm sure of it. How else is he going to expect us to start killing each other for his sick amusement?

[everylittlesecret]

I guess so? Not used to trusting humans.

[She goes quiet, wringing her hands.]

....... I have a feeling he'll give us a reason. Soon.

[tokencanadian]

[She pauses, blinking slowly. "Humans"?

But she can't stay focused on that thought for long. She sees Nari wringing her hands and, with slight hesitation, reaches and puts her hand over them. If she gets a little shock now, then that'll just happen.]

I don't doubt he wont give u, but that doesn't mean we have to let him win.

[everylittlesecret]

[She's been living with a cat for a while now. Humans are only interaction when she's on the internet or working.

It'll be a more tingling, steady zapping, like touching one of those charged orbs that create light. Pyrrha will find her hand going numb the longer it's in contact with Nari.]

I know... I'm not giving up... I'm gonna make him regret what he did to me and Church.

[tokencanadian]

[She'll pull away before her hand goes completely numb, but at least the voltage has turned down somewhat.]

That's... the spirit? [She lets out a breath that sort of turns into a snort.] I'm sorry, it's kind of new for me to advocate revenge.

[everylittlesecret]

[Yuuri sadly got most of the discharge last night.]

It won't..... be revenge revenge. I don't want him dead. I want to make his life a living hell.

[tokencanadian]

[Yeah.........]

That's fine! I would love to see him face justice for keeping us here.

[...She feels it has to be said.] Just, please be careful if you ever try this again - or, don't.

[everylittlesecret]

If anyone would even charge him... which is why we make his life hell.

[Well, you see.]

If I do anything like that again, I'll make sure it's bigger and gets results.

[tokencanadian]

Please be careful. [It bears repeating.]

If you don't mind me asking, what exactly was it you and Church were trying to do?

[everylittlesecret]

[Okay, the moment careful comes into the equation, this girl is more likely to get hurt. #LetNariBeReckless or get a bubble.]

Blow a hole in the wall. I made the explosives, he made the timer and Rainbow Brite. [Just going to punch the wall of the kiosk, then hiss in pain.] He killed my roomba mini-me.

[tokencanadian]

[she hisses a bit too?? Please don't hurt yourself further, Nari. And her life is reckless enough without you on top of it.]

Blow a hole in the wall... into space? [????] I-I'm sorry about your roomba. That was... probably very petty of him.

[everylittlesecret]

[She shakes her hand out to less the pain.]

Not space. I don't think that wall leads out there. Might just be another part of the mall. And you think? Rainbow Brite did nothing to hurt him!

[tokencanadian]

Of course not! What could a roomba do to him?

[...Hmm]

I... don't think he's the kind of dirt you can just suck up. [hehe. Was that an attempt at a dig? Maybe.]

[everylittlesecret]

[......... Okay that was kind of cute and it gets Nari to smile.]

I think we need a trash compactor for him.

[tokencanadian]

[she's trying]

I wouldn't recycle him, that's for sure.

[everylittlesecret]

[It's working.]

I don't think he's biodegradable with how plastic he acts anyways.

[tokencanadian]

More like made of stone, what wit how stonefaced he's been. Too much. [Mmm] I guess there's no compassion in a position like that.

[everylittlesecret]

At least stone can be used for something useful. Like a wall or a bridge.... or just smash something with it. [Compassion?] I don't think he even knows the meaning of that word.
