Week Two Afterparty: For the people who are Still Alive

[literalidiotball]

That afternoon could not be more confusing.

Not only was the witch who called herself Yuuko a fake, but it turned out the witch who communicated through bird and notes was none other than one of the pieces. And the suffering... Oh, the suffering...

At least nobody else died for now...🗈

In spite of the lack of death, Wheatley was about as shaken up as everyone else. If he wasn't sure he was going to die here before, he is definitely certain now.

But he wasn't going to try and let it get to him. Even if he kind of wished he could consume things in the real world, he's still clinging to the small victory they had in sparing everyone.

On that note, he had the goats prepare a feast, turning the dining room table into a buffet table. There was turkey, fish, granola bars, fish shaped crackers, a giant bowl of frosted flakes, Macaroni and cheese with chunks of fish, fish shaped granola bars... Look, Wheatley didn't quite understand what humans liked to eat at these things, but at least it looks professional.

There's even a large cake in the center of the table. It's covered in chocolate frosting, strawberries, and has a lovely message written in bold white frosting: "WE SURVIVED".

Wait!

Holmes.

[improbablenotimpossible]

[He stops]

Yes?

[chaoscontrol]

.... If I had known you were the Sherlock Holmes...

...... I would have done a much better job trying to frame you, to make a scene worthy of your time. As it was I was just... trying to confuse the scene.

[another pause]

I believe that you didn't know. I'm not happy that you kept those secrets, but... I'm... sorry.

[improbablenotimpossible]

[A wry grin appears]

Well it did at least keep me off the scene... As for that, there's no more secrets left, though I'm afraid I only have my word for it, suspect as it is.

...I can't even fault you for what happened, you acted what you thought was for the best.

[chaoscontrol]

Heh... Imagine my surprise when a fully grown unconscious man dropped into the bathtub. [he shakes his head] Get some rest, Mr. Holmes. At least this time, we all get to live to learn from the mistakes we've made.

[improbablenotimpossible]

I'm actually a little surprised I wasn't more banged up from that.... and you should rest as well, it's been a long day for everyone.

[chaoscontrol]

I didn't see your fall, but I suspect it must not have been from very high up. [he nods and lets Holmes go on his way] Rest well.

[improbablenotimpossible]

[He nods]

Ah, try the Laphroaig Cairdeas, if you plan on partaking.

[With that, he slips away]
