WEEK 2 MINGLE - ARTEMISIA

[foundationmods]

Things had changed so rapidly in the past few days.

The loss of two of them hung over like a shroud, made even worse by the fact that an innocent person had been executed.

Was this....how the rest of the game was going to go...?🗈

....Even if it was, there wasn't much they could do now. Yuuko herself hasn't shown up in public since the trial, and while some have talked to her, she's been...subdued.

Did the trial hurt her just as much as them?

Regardless, the island is still beautiful, if deadly. Summer continues, beaming down on all of them, the waves of the sea warm and inviting.

But even if things look bleak...

They have something in their hands that will soon lead to the Truth, and the heart of this matter.

And in the air...lies a heavy sense that everything is about to change.

[ He can make some inferring here... ]

"15 going on 1,000...?" A joke, right?

[excavated]

I think so. . . I'm not that old.

[rikuchi]

[ A small huff of amusement comes through him. ]

Alright, just making sure. You never know, with the way things are.

[excavated]

Because there are actually people that old?

[rikuchi]

...Got it in one.

[excavated]

Do you have friends that are actually that old, Riku-san?

[rikuchi]

[ ...He wonders if Yen Sid is that old - okay, no. ]

As far as I know, no. [ Someone could always be a grandma in disguise. ] I've met people in the Foundation who have hinted that they might've been, but never got to know anyone that old well enough.

[excavated]

I see. Maybe I'll meet someone there someday, then.

[foundfate]

Yeah. He just acts super-mature.

[rikuchi]

You're right about that.

[ He's only spoken to Syaoran a couple of times but he's observed that the brunet is rather polite and such. ]

Well, Happy Birthday. Hope you can enjoy it, despite the circumstances.

[foundfate]

[Right, that reveal happened today, didn't it? Watanuki frowns after Riku reminds him of that.]

It would be nice if it were under better circumstances. Though maybe everyone could use some cake to help them deal with the news.

[rikuchi]

[ Whoops, he accidentally downer'd the mood...! ]

I'm sure everyone definitely appreciates the cake. I'm not exactly someone who has the biggest sweet teeth, but it's nice to have a dessert and a bit of a distraction.

[foundfate]

[Then HERE HAVE SOME CAKE]

That's what I thought too. When bad things happen, a reminder that there is still good helps.

[rikuchi]

[ A real cake too. Riku is adding a mile om his morning run routine. ]

Yeah. Think we'd be a little lost without one.

[foundfate]

[Omg Riku it's one slice of cake.]

Speaking of which, when is your birthday?

[rikuchi]

[ Listen...listen, gotta keep in shape!!1 ]

Mine? It's November 11th.

Asking just for curiosity's sake?
