WEEK 3 - NIGHTSHADE

[foundationmods]

Finally, the whole truth of this affair had come out.

The Witch they had known as Yuuko was actually Nirrti, the Witch of Misfortune.
And Watanuki was actually the real Witch of Dimensions, as the two of them fought over the power that title brought, as well as the name and identity of a long dead woman...🗈

Though things had finally changed, perhaps it wouldn't be for the better. Nirrti herself seemed much different than how she was before, and Watanuki was the one who had brought all of them here...with that in mind, it was hard to tell how their future would shake out...

However, it wasn't all bad. A few more places were open to them, the second floor becoming a much more inviting place to be, and there was still everything they had gotten used to before. And now, they all knew that Nirrti's promises were nothing but empty air...

...or, perhaps, now they would merely change.

[ He's just... sliding over a cup of water, and then sliding away the current cup of coffee. ]

[goldenmaniac]

[It's clear how focused Takumi is thanks to the fact that he picks up the new cup and drinks it without ever seeming to notice it's not coffee]

[beguiledcard]

[ Just as planned.

He's just gonna start drinking the coffee now while quietly watching him. ]

[goldenmaniac]

[Oh Akira, you poor soul what have you done.

As that is pure expresso mixed with energy drink it tastes like death and also may actually kill you]

[ Challenge: accepted, he's gonna finish this thing. ]

[goldenmaniac]

[Hope you don't start astral projecting there buddy. Takumi just keeps tapping away.

Hey Akira, you know anything about programming?]

[beguiledcard]

[ . . . Yeah, he's feeling it already. Guess who doesn't drink all that much coffee?

Holy shit.

Nope, he doesn't know anything about programming, so it feels like he's watching someone typing Gaelic. ]

[goldenmaniac]

[Even worse since some strings of text don't look like any language he'd recognize ]

[beguiledcard]

[ ??? ]

Soooo... What's all that about?

[goldenmaniac]

[Takumi breathy screams and jerks, falling out of his chair.

RIP]

[beguiledcard]

[ oh . . .

He's going to reach out to help him up now. ]

[goldenmaniac]

Ha... sorry, I didn't see you there-!

[beguiledcard]

[ There's a quiet snort. ]

Well, I guess I am pretty easy to miss.

[goldenmaniac]

Too sneaky. So what's up?

[beguiledcard]

[ He takes another drink of the coffee... ]

I replaced your coffee with water.

[goldenmaniac]

[He looks down at the cup next to the computer...]

Ehhhhh??!

[beguiledcard]

Yeah, and that was fifteen minutes ago. I've just been standing here the whole time.

[ Time for a game of guessing whether he's telling the truth or just screwing with him... ]

[goldenmaniac]

[Takumi seems to buy the whole thing]

Whoa, really??

[beguiledcard]

[ Why are you so cute... wtf. ]

Nah, not a full fifteen. Maybe something closer to just over five?
