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. ))

Leaving aside the machine's propensity to giving unnecessary lubricants... [He tries to take a look at the rest of the bounty] ...did you obtain anything that could be of use?

[cyan_maid]

...Hm. Well...I got asprin, at least - which has an immediately obvious use. The rest...I suppose some of it could come in handy some way. I've already got an idea for those Gushers, though.

[imnotfat]

Gushers...? Sounds unpleasant.

[cyan_maid]

They are. They really are the most gross thing you could ever put in your mouth and I have always hated them. [She smiles.] Which makes them perfect for a bit of mischief.

[imnotfat]

[Jane's first thought when she obtains something that's really gross is to use them for mischief. Togami seriously doesn't understand how your mind works, Jane]

You're certainly one of the strangest people I have ever met -- not that there's much competition.

[Pranksters, how do they manage to exist]

You haven't changed at all from our past game, from what I remember. It's...odd.

[cyan_maid]

You know what, I'm going to take that as a compliment.

[Really, counting the people you knew in Hope's Peak? That's something else.]

...Is that so?

[imnotfat]

Yes. We didn't have all of our memories back then, yet we have them now. Despite that, you're every bit as whimsical and confusing as back then.

[He seems to be evaluating her with the same attitude he'd try to use to determine someone's worth]

You're either extremely resilient, or a buffoon of astounding proportions -- and it seems I determined quite early in the last game you're not a buffoon.

How is it possible you have been holding yourself together so well, I wonder?

[Maybe Togami would be more likable if he didn't give his backhanded compliments with such a dismissive tone. Everyone who survived Hope's Peak and most people who survived that other space game changed in some way, Togami included, yet he seems to not have noticed noticeable changes in Jane's demeanor.

Maybe he simply doesn't understand people as well as he thinks he's starting to]

[cyan_maid]

[She looks at him quietly, almost...surprised, that "whimsical and confusing" is the air he finds she exudes. She considers it for a moment.]

...Maybe...there's things that changed me that are in our memories that we still can't reach. I bet you one of these days, there will be a Sunday I don't want to come out of my kiosk, but I'm...trying to think of the things that don't hurt as badly as whatever that could be.

[imnotfat]

Does that mean when that happens you're actually going to make your blanket piles inside your kiosk?

[...that's...not the point, Togami]

[cyan_maid]

...Possibly.

[I mean at that point Clarith might either be sleeping with Arianna or dead, so who knows.]

[imnotfat]

For once in my life I'll admit I was wrong about something. You are learning.

[You're not throwing yourself in the middle of the food court like some kind of hobo! That's baby steps towards being higher than 'tolerable', as far as Togami's concerned]

[cyan_maid]

Really? Only once? Gracious, the things outer space does to a person.

[But she's smiling slightly - it's gentle ribbing at best, because she really does not get your thought process in this regard.]
