Week 4

[airlockedmods]

[After everything that this case was, you probably don't want to deal with anything else. But you wake up on Sunday, just like before, with some new memories, and some new stores to check out.

Let's see what this week brings.]

Sunday | Monday | Tuesday | Wednesday | Thursday

(( Don't forget to check in, and check your memory regains! You can also stop by the gacha machine and Xander's office hours. ))

[See, when you get down on her level like that? That really tugs right at her heart. Jane shifts Seb in her arms a little so Ardyn can see him better.]

...He'd...be awfully helpful to us if he could work, though. Not just if he looked pretty. He was, um...sort of like a protector for me? He can use katanas, and...he gets into all sorts of mischief on his own, the little scamp...I just...I hate that I can't fix him myself...

[burninglight]

SHIVA'S FUCKING DIAMOND DUST, WHAT--?!

[okay now he's DEFINITELY seen a literal ghost and is all but jumping back.]

[...and somewhere, noting an outburst of that level should not have felt that natural.]

[motherfucking_ghost]

I can't promise anything. [quick to anger]

[daughterofthemark]

...Lord Ardyn?

[Hi, guess who couldn't help but notice that basically everyone walked out of her meeting really upset?]

[cyan_maid]

Y...Yeah. I could do that for him, at least. [She heaves a sigh.] He fell into the ocean. That's why he's...a mess. But, I had thought...he's always been a resilient little thing, he'd be okay. I...guess not.

[..... Okay, "Ravus" is trying not to laugh.

Then the arm is seen and "he" looks like a delighted child.]

Is this a fucking robot arm? That's hella awesome! Totally clashes with the clothes, but hey, this is amazing.

[burninglight]

I'm aware.

[pictured: the former personification of anger issues.]

I just...don't want all of us to fall apart. Not like this, at least.

[Well, what would be the natural assumption upon seeing an unfamiliar apparent woman here?]

--Lady Consequence? Is it you?

[imnotfat]

Hmph. For someone whose profile says is 'compassionate', you sure are bad at listening to people.

[Looks like the outright rejection doesn't deter Togami. He crosses his arms, and says, trying to keep a tone that doesn't betray how annoyed he feels:]

Talk with him again before the day ends. If you don't get this solved, someone will die soon. You have one single chance to make it right.

[burninglight]

Hm....well, I don't know if I'll be able to get him to anything like full capacity, but if you'll let me take him apart and see what needs replacing I can give it a try. If we asked I'm willing to bet the Doctor will help as well.

[burninglight]

I'm really not interested in being lectured by a child. Don't tell me what to do.

[burninglight]

Please never let Ravus make that face again, that is the most alarming thing I have ever seen in two millennia.

[motherfucking_ghost]

Are you just like...not mad at me anymore?

[imnotfat]

So what? You're just going to let that happen? You're just going to sit there sharpening your sword until this all is over, while everyone who trusts you is afraid you'll do something stupid and they'll have to execute you?

[burninglight]

Oh, I'm still furious and I think we're both idiots.

But I'm more concerned with making sure we all live through this week.

[helladoptera]

[ oh no... ]

Well, he... followed you here. That's something, right?

[burninglight]

[Even in his pissed-off wandering, it was really hard to miss the sound of someone crying.]

[...And damn it all, before he knew it he'd stopped to investigate.]

Pyrrha? What's happened?

[motherfucking_ghost]

[He finally pauses, hands stilling, and actually looks at Ardyn.]

What about another technicality or accident?

[everylittlesecret]

What? Oh. Is he one of those that if he smiles it's because he has a knife to your throat?

[Sorry, Ardyn. She's going to make Ravus look serious, then super happy, then super sad, and last expression is so void and neutral that it's terrifying. Like "Ravus" is capable of stealing your soul or something.]

[motherfucking_ghost]

And you want me to do what, exactly? Hunt everyone down and try to apologize? Just so you don't all vote for the wrong person out of spite and kill yourselves for it?

[nightcure]

Nah, I think I'm good. Besides, maybe you can make some good use of it.

... Is there other stuff on there?

[imnotfat]

[Siiiiiiigh]

How the hell did the two most stubborn and unreasonable men in history manage to get together? Seriously.

[Or...ancient healer person and AI. Whatever]

[burninglight]

...What are you implying.

[imnotfat]

That'd be a start.

[Just...don't let yourself be hit with bottles like the last person he knew who got half of everyone against them accidentally did. It doesn't end well]

[burninglight]

...More the type allergic to any form of humoplease don't look at me like that.

[like ALL OF THAT, goodness he's gonna have nightmares.]
