Week 2

[Other than the reappearance of the Overseer, there's no real change in the routine. PAL still makes the morning and night time announcements through the PIP on each Champion's arm, and still the Champion unitards are freshly laundered and re-hung each morning in their closets.

No other floors unlock, but Cece and Kip will still be appearing randomly to chit-chat.

All you know is... something has to change soon.]

Sunday Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday

Nope and nope. It showed up in the dumbwaiter, had my name on it, so I'm just like "Eh. Why not carry it around." Also, I'm doing this for the flowers health.

Oh, yeah. Tenmyouji-kun said that's where he got his booze from, too. What's the deal wit' only you guys gettin' cool shit, huh?

[ Oh, but she's actually... doing this on purpose? ]

You a gardener or somethin'?

No idea. I didn't ask for any of it.

[She shakes her head.] Nope. I garden occasionally. This is more like... part of my power? I have an affinity for plants. I like them, they like me, and I know enough to keep them healthy. I can make them grow, too, by manipulating the water inside of them, altering the heat I generate, and so on.

Guess ya got some fans out there, Nari-chan.

[ He smirks. This isn't the Hunger Games... not that he would get the reference.

Ohhh, that's pretty fuckin' impressive. Ya must have a real green thumb.

Fans? Who the fuck would be a fan of a trainwreck like me?.... Guess it takes all types, though.

[Wait till everyone else gets things, and then she won't feel so singled out.]

You think so? I can kill them, too. If I draw just enough water out of them, I can make it where they can't recover from it. [.......] You know....... now that I think about it, I could probably do that to a person, too.

[ fuck, broken html strikes again. ]

Naw, ya ain't so bad, girlie. Yer real smart and ya know how ta kill a man with one o' these garden hoes. Shit, that's my type right there.

[ wink wink!!! is he joking?? Well he sure isn't now that she said the rest of it. ]

Fuck, that's hot. [ Give him a moment. To breathe. ] All that just 'cause you can do fancy shit with water?

I could literally teach anyone here how to kill with a garden hoe. It's more about where you hit, not how hard... though that helps.

[There she goes again with the details.... AND KEEP THAT WINKING TO YOURSELF RIGHT NOW]

Yes. Human bodies are mostly composed of water. You mess with that balance just right, you can cause permanent damage. I could, if I had full access to it, literally pull all of the water in your body out through your sweat glands. Or force it all to pool into one section and bloat... wait. Why am I even talking about this with you?

Mm-hm, bet ya could. Keep talkin'...

[ WHEN HAS HE EVER KEPT THOSE THOUGHTS TO HIMSELF.... ]

Naw, don't stop. Ya got me goin' now, things were gettin' excitin'.

[SHE'S NOT USED TO HAVING PEOPLE PAY ATTENTION TO HER IN THIS WAY]

What's so exciting? All I'm on right now is saying how I could make someone burst from the inside. The lungs would be the worst since you'd be drowning but not technically drowning at the same time since you didn't inhale the liquid directly into your lungs. I could get away with murder, and no one would be the wiser.

[ Welcome to Nishitani 101: keep talking about violence and eventually he'll get a boner. He sighs, clearly very pleased with himself. ]

Ya gotta be doin' this on purpose, Nari-chan. All this sweet-talkin's gettin' my juices flowin' real fast, ya know?

[ What kind of juices could you possibly mean, Nishitani. ]

[Oh fuck well she's about to walk out again WHY DOES SHE KEEP DOING THIS?]

At this moment? I might be. Sorry. Part of being raised by a doctor is seeing how far you can push someone before you get a reaction... you react really, really fast, and in some now predictable ways. But please. Keep those juices to yourself.

[ Nishitani laughs. He just has no shame. At all. 0. ]

Ya should know by now, Nari-chan. Don't take much ta get me off.

[ DON'T SAY THESE THINGS. ]

Clearly. Though I'd like to know if it's more imagining the act or if you enjoy committing the act more.

[These are important questions.]

Ain't no reason it can't be both. I got enough money back home that there ain't much I can't get if I want it.

[

]

Would you make a snuff film?

[

Answer honestly]

[ Wow this murderer is feeling so attacked right now?? ]

Nari-chan, ain't I told ya already? 's not the killin' I like, it's the fightin'. What's the point in makin' a film if yer just gonna kill somebody?

Edited 2017-05-25 19:45 (UTC)

So you would definitely love Fight Club. At least the fighting parts.

[She wanted to make sure!!!!]

Hey I like knowing details about people.

Fight Club? Shit, that sounds like my fuckin' jam.

[ It's ok he avoids the toxic masculinity by wearing pink and being manly enough to have an earring. ]

Whatcha learned so far? Or issat top secret?

If we ever get a media room, maybe they'll have a copy of it. We can make it a movie night.

[Men with earrings are pretty legit.]

Secrets. What I'm told by others is up to them to bring to light. I guard secrets with my life, even if it would save my life to share them. Secrets are what I'm good at.

I'd be down fer that.

[ He'd wonder why Tyler and the main character don't just kiss until right at the end... ]

Ohhh, I gotcha. [ He nods. ] Hey, that's legit. Snitches ain't exactly popular in my line of business either.

[ Yeah they usually end up dead. ]

Ya got anythin' on me, Nari-chan? I'm an open book.

[Poor Nishitani. Nari will teach you all about fanfiction then.

Secrets are probably the only reason she's kept around at home.]

That you are. But from the conversations we've had, there's been a few things that have made me curious. From what I can tell, you're really into dad type men. Which means there's a man back home you'd probably pick over Roland any day. You also don't seem to mind being with women, but there's even a line you won't cross and it's children. Which helps make me more comfortable around you. Now... This yakuza thing is family tied. Does the great Nishitani have siblings, kids, or is he all alone?

[ Oh god, he'd look up all the fanfiction on himself, I guarantee it. ]

Well, I got a dad. Sorta. Uncle B, he's been there fer me since I was a brat. I ain't gonna fuck 'im though, he's ancient. [ He chuckles. Ah, Billiken. Best cop dad a criminal could ask for. ] But I do got a guy back home that I got my eye on. Hopin' he an' I can get friendly, if ya catch my meanin'.

[ "Friendly," he says. He just wants to fight him. And see where things go from there. And yeah, he's just gonna clear up all her misconceptions because who needs secrets? ]

Even us crime-types won't mess with kids, we all got our honor, after all. I got my own family, the Kijin Clan, but it ain't the kinda family connected by somethin' like blood, see? When ya join up with the yakuza, yer clan becomes yer family. Ya live and die for 'em, 's why we get our tats an' shit. There ain't no turnin' back once yer in.

[You do you, buddy.

She snorts at the last part of the comment, raising an eyebrow. Yes, she knows what you mean.]

I can't imagine a life like that. It's always just been my parents, myself, and my sister until she took off... I don't even know if I have grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins... Having a big family sounds nice.

It beats the hell outta havin' blood relatives if ya ask me. Ya can't fight blood, but ya can fight yer men long as they ain't ranked above ya.

[ He chuckles. That's, uh, that's not the normal way it works in yakuza families actually. But it is in his, and he's the Chairman so what he says goes. ]

Real talk, Nari-chan. If ya don't know 'em, ya prolly don't need 'em. Make yer own family.

Make my own family?

[But...] Unless I get married, that's kinda hard to do. I can't just go up to someone and say they are family now.
