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. ))

gacha

[everylittlesecret]

[It's habit to wander over to the gacha machine to see what people have gotten. In case something of Nari's pops up again. Which indeed she's in luck this time!]

Hey! What the hell is that doing here? [Hope you don't mind her grabbing the survival guide and holding it like a treasure.] Wow, it's even more worn out than before...

[cyan_maid]

What's what doing - oh, um, it came out of the machine. It's yours, Nari?

[everylittlesecret]

Yeah... It's the survival guide my dad gave me. When we first started hiking together.... Mind if I have it back please?

[cyan_maid]

Oh, not at all! Please, go right ahead. And if there's anything else there you want, go for it.

[everylittlesecret]

Thank you. [This is great!!! Even if she needs to investigate the random piece of paper sticking out at the end.] Well... since you're underage I can always take the alcohol? I actually have drinking buddies here, and it's pretty great.

[cyan_maid]

The - oh, yeah, if you have a better use for that, please. I've been drunk once, I refuse to end up as such again.

[everylittlesecret]

It takes a lot for me to get drunk, but it's always good to cook with. Beef and whiskey are like best friends.

[cyan_maid]

As much as I enjoy cooking, I can't say I'm much of a booze-user in the kitchen. Which I suppose is a shame, since I've heard penne vodka is very good.

[everylittlesecret]

Penne vodka is amazing! I can make it for you some time, and I could even use the kale vodka. I love using veggies in my sauces.

[cyan_maid]

Golly, if it wouldn't put you out at all, I'd really like that...thank you!

[everylittlesecret]

It wouldn't, and I love cooking. I don't generally cook for others, but I can make an exception.

[cyan_maid]

O-Oh...shucks...

[Jane just. Gestures to the Flavortown kitchen.]

Hey, um, if you want some, I made gumbo...a lot of gumbo. I really should actually stir the pot, too - oh, and there's rice? In case you want rice with it.

[everylittlesecret]

Oh... uhm.... well.... I try not to eat food others made.... because one of my friends was poisoned with popcorn and chocolate.... U-Unless I see the person make the food, or they try it first.

[cyan_maid]

...Wait, what?

[Wh

That's horrifying???]

Was - was this at home? Or in your...

[everylittlesecret]

His name was Finn. I called him Rebel. He was the Champion of Resistance.... A girl named Lee killed him. She poisoned his food.

cw: r1c2, suicidal imagery

[cyan_maid]

[Jane brings a hand to her mouth in shock.] Oh, God...I-I don't blame you for being wary! We...we had someone poisoned, too. Seth - the Champion Serpent, he put bleach in Angelica's lemonade...er, she was the Champion...of Counterfeits. A-And he made it look like she hung herself...

[everylittlesecret]

That's.... that's awful... Now I'm gonna be worried about my drinks, too...

[cyan_maid]

Oh - fuck, dammit, I didn't mean to...I...wow, of course you're going to get concerned, I'm dumb. Shit. I'm so sorry, Nari...

[everylittlesecret]

D-Don't apologize... I just.... I guess being a doctors kid is what makes me so afraid of being poisoned. Seen one too many bodies in the morgue be poison victims of some kind...

[cyan_maid]

N-No, it's fine - really, I promise. Next time...you know what, next time, you come into the kitchen with me and you can watch me like a hawk, if it makes you feel better.

[Jane would never poison someone - she has far too much pride in what she cooks to make it deadly on purpose - but Nari was her friend. Nari trusted her enough to tell her about her powers. This is the least she can do in return.]

[everylittlesecret]

.... you wouldn't mind if I watched you cook?

[cyan_maid]

Not at all! I'd actually feel a lot better knowing you felt better about it.

[everylittlesecret]

... then I'll have to take you up on that sometime.

[cyan_maid]

Please do, alright? Don't be a stranger.

[everylittlesecret]

I'll try not to be. [Jane gets a headpat. Then Nari grabs the booze and skedaddles off with a wave.]
