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. ))

[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]

I'm outright saying he's doing exactly the same you're doing right now: pretending doing nothing to address the elephant in the room is okay.

[Last he checked, Church is beating up a machine in Flavortown. That wasn't the best time to approach, that was for sure]

[burninglight]

He excels at that, what of it?

[imnotfat]

Look, I'm not going to pretend I know much about this kind of stuff, but if you're not going to do anything about your problems with your boyfriend you don't get to complain once it falls apart.

[Like...you'd have to be blind not to notice there's something going on between you two? You two kind of made it obvious during the trial, man, even to Byakuya 'Friendship-Is-Icky' Togami, who isn't the paragon of emotional knowledge]

[burninglight]

I recall telling you to stay out of-




MY WHAT.

[imnotfat]

What? Was it supposed to be a secret?

[Ardyn's intention with the 'MY WHAT' doesn't even seem to register in the way Ardyn may have intended it]

[burninglight]

What the hell are you talking about, Togami?

[HE HAS NO IDEA]

[imnotfat]

Don't make me repeat myself. [He takes out a notepad] It's such a curse to take notes during the trials. I can't let something out just because it's completely irrelevant or useless, as much as I'd like to.

[He opens the notepad and starts looking for his notes about the last trial]

[burninglight]

[he could not look more confused if he tried, togami]

[imnotfat]

[Ah, there they are. Best speech tone, here it goes:]

'The possibility of slashes on clothes was brought up. Proposer: Ardyn Etc. Results: inconclusive. Touko Fukawa had no results. Junpei Tenmyouji had no results'. And so on until... 'Leonard Church had no results. Addendum: He tried to strip down in middle of the trial. Comment: 'How did them survive a game'.

Particular quotes, for notekeeping purposes:

[And then, with the most unamused tone he has:]

'GO FUCK YOURSELF I'M NOT PUTTING IT BACK ON!'
'THAT'S PERFECTLY FINE WITH ME FOR SOME REASON!'
'MAYBE CUZ YOU LIKE THE D'

[Back to the valedictorian speech tone]

'More useless stuff: people started to argue about the quality of Ardyn's hairdo. Church and Syo show interest, much to my chagrin'

[He closes his notebook]

Seriously, was it a secret? You two are not being subtle, if that was your intention all along.

[burninglight]

...Right. That certainly did transpire.

[internal screaming]

We're not...whatever you're insinuating we might be or might be doing.

[imnotfat]

Even your profile shows there's something going on between you two.

[Give him a moment to get it...ah, here it is]

Ardyn Lucis Caelum Etc -- I should also point it says Church right there in middle of your name. Likes: Leonard Church.

[Togami seems so exasperated]

You two have something, so stop pretending you don't. For all I know you did have it before arriving here and you don't remember now, it doesn't matter.

[burninglight]

...You are excellent at prying into matters that don't involve you, aren't you?

[imnotfat]

It's starting to turn into a bad habit, apparently.

[He's being "sociable and considerate", this is what Naegi and a few others in this mall would have wanted of Togami. It involves him prying into your lives, too bad]

What now? Are you going to do something about this or will you keep sitting there staring at that table?

[burninglight]

I'm going to throw something at you, if you keep irritating me.

[imnotfat]

You even have the same reactions to when I talk to him. How trite.

[You two are truly made for each other. Still, not wanting to have a toolbox or something thrown at his head, Togami turns around]

Think about it. I had enough of trying to play peacekeeper in here. Yurika should be the one doing it, that's her freaking talent.
