Week 2

[airlockedmods]

[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

I'm nothing if not stubborn. And an asshole. A stubborn asshole. That's not a thing that'll change.

So maybe don't get snappy at people who are trying to be a stubborn asshole of goodness at you. You, uh. You can be a scary son of a bitch when it comes out of you from places unknown.

[scourgingstars]

...My apologies. I wasn't trying to frighten you, I just...briefly lost my temper, I think.

[motherfucking_ghost]

Because I was making sure you were actually okay okay and not lying-about-it okay. I'm just saying! Putting it out there. It's been a weird two weeks.

[scourgingstars]

That is a tremendous understatement, my friend. There are sure to be several words to describe the past fortnight, but I find even I fail to come up with one suitable to describe how utterly insane it has been.

[motherfucking_ghost]

I dunno, I think I dig 'utterly insane' just as it is. Interdimensional kidnappings, crazy house AI, solid ghosts. I've seen some crazy shit, but...yeah. This is...on another level.

[scourgingstars]

It perhaps speaks to my tolerance level for this manner of things that 'solid ghosts' at least sounds plausible.

[motherfucking_ghost]

Pretty sure it's a staple of ghosts that they're not solid. Walking through walls and all that. I can't do that right now, don't have all the abilities, but you know what I mean.

[scourgingstars]

I understand the concept, yes. But even so there can be no denying that thing was clearly meant to be invisible.

What also concerns me is the question of what it was doing there; clearly it had some kind of claws, and most of you were completely defenseless.

[motherfucking_ghost]

Also, what the fuck kind of thing leaves behind a trail of sparkle dust in its wake? Like an angry, invisible pinata. But with glitter instead of candy. Maybe PAL cooked something up...

[scourgingstars]

What reason would it have? It was my understanding it wants us to kill each other, not do the job itself.

[motherfucking_ghost]

Hey, all the more reason to not be alone, right? Alone and brooding. [Cuz you were brooding, my royal man.] Make sure no invisible monsters pick anyone off.

[scourgingstars]

All of you are fortunate I was there, I hope that you realize that. If no one had seen that thing, every last one of you could have been an easy target.

[motherfucking_ghost]

Be that as it may, still wish you could've joined in the inebriated fun. I bet you're wild if you let yourself go. Or...bet you were wild. If you had gotten drunk.

[scourgingstars]

[even the savior of the planet was a teenager once, church]

To be completely honest, ordinarily I have little tolerance myself. I'd have been a laughing idiot, and we would probably all be dead.

[motherfucking_ghost]

But we would've died laughing, which isn't a bad way to go. Other hand, enough of us drunk were still a force to be reckoned with. We might've just dogpiled it to death anyway.

[scourgingstars]

Truly worthy of being called the world's most incompetent Kingsglaive.

[That almost sounded like a compliment, judging by the smile on Ardyn's face as he said it.]

Whatever it was, I simply hope that it doesn't present itself to those less capable of defending themselves.
