week 9

[airlockedmods]

[Nine weeks, seven cases, eight Champions remaining. Something has to give and it's bound to be soon.

There is no new floor opened this time but SIS and PAL still seem to be active and ready to interact.]


Sunday | Monday | Tuesday


((Since this is the final week, there's no AC this week! But don't forget to check your memory regains, and submit for regains! The final rolls will be Sunday night (4/1)! We will also be posting the official endgame announcement later today!))

Oh.

...Are they, like...people working behind the scenes, or...?

[everylittlesecret]

Nope. Locked up in a cell like prisoners.

[motherfucking_ghost]

Okay, so, this is the part where you tell me why we care about rescuing them.

[everylittlesecret]

They know our dead and they don't seem like InterGal7. They're being starved, which I think means they've been abandoned as effective hostages. Plus, it would make Tolly happy.

[motherfucking_ghost]

And where's the part where we care about rescuing them?

[everylittlesecret]

Because if it's not a "we", then I'll be going by myself to do so.

[motherfucking_ghost]

That's not an explanation, that's an ultimatum--jesus, this is a meeting to gather information, so if there's information, I just, can we please fucking share it, instead of being vague and cagey, god.

[everylittlesecret]

Look, I don't know them. But I feel like I need to save them. That's literally why I want to go.

[tokencanadian]

You are definitely not going alone.

Not without me, anyway.

[everylittlesecret]

I know, I know. I guess I do mean "we" in a sense.

[induality]

...yeah. I promised Pyrrha I'd help save Rad so... I'm going too.

[cyan_maid]

...Because from the sound of things, they're just as much victims of the network as we are?

[Look Church she understands where you're coming from, but also, there are rooms somewhere in this building where people are starving and that's not fucking okay]

[motherfucking_ghost]

I mean that sucks for them, but my priority is us and our people.

[cyan_maid]

And they were taking care of some of the dead, right? Some of our dead. That, by extension, makes them our people.

[Though she's quiet for a moment after saying that, counting in her head.]

...You know...maybe...there's not a lot of us left, but there's enough of us that it could be possible...if we split up.

[motherfucking_ghost]

Historically, our track record with splitting up has been...not very good.

[daughterofthemark]

It worked well enough in the mansion. And we split into three groups when we rescued you from the prison that time.

[motherfucking_ghost]

To be fair, we were in prison because we also split up and everything went haywire from there.

And one of the plans to get us out was ding dong ditch.

[daughterofthemark]

[..........]

Perhaps the problem is not splitting up, but us.

[everylittlesecret]

We're like a bunch of cats and dogs. Cats want to do one thing, the dogs want to stick together and play ding dong ditch.

[cyan_maid]

Then we need to make a concentrated effort to keep our heads and have people leading the charge that can keep their heads.

[And honestly we have very few people who can fucking do that here. Jane is not included in that list.]

[everylittlesecret]

Hey. Hey. I did pretty well keeping my head when busting people outta that space jail. Hell, I even almost got killed because y'all needing my abilities.

[cyan_maid]

No, Nari, you're on the very short list of people who can keep their heads, you're fine.

[It's Church. She's dunking on Church.]

[everylittlesecret]

I'm glad. Though... I think we mostly gotta worry about Sho coming back out. She's............... a liability, as much as I love Touko.

[cyan_maid]

...Then, I mean...who'd be the best to stick with her if she did?

[Spoilers it'll be Church and Arianna]

[everylittlesecret]

Ari and Church. Church for being an anxious mess who somehow gets his point across with yelling, and Ari because I think Sho has a thing for her.
