WEEK 5 AFTERPARTY(?)

After all of that, maybe their spirits were on the edge of breaking down. Or maybe they just needed time to process what had just happened.

But either way, in the wake of the trial, it was quiet.🗈

There wasn't an after-party this time. Though there probably should be, some time to connect between the remaining pieces, the people who would have arranged it... all needed some time alone. But there is a chance to connect, even if it isn't via a party.

[There's a silence.

And then, a note pops in from nowhere, fluttering to the floor.]

[He jumps to catch it and read]

'Yahooo~! It's me, the great and powerful Lady Lambdadelta~!!

...At least, that's what I would say if I could come visit you in person. At most, all I can send you is this note.

See, I'm just a spectator in this game, but since you asked for me personally, I could talk to you through this. I'm not invited to this territory though, so It'd just be rude if I barged in uninvited, you know?

...Ah, I guess I should tell you that Nirrti came to see me. Don't worry, she'll be back tomorrow! Just...you guys really did a number on her, so she needed a minor time out.

Anyway, I'm excited to see what you guys do from here! I'm watching with bated breath~ Don't disappoint me, okaaaaay~?

...Oh, and - you might want to not be where you're standing~'

[The moment he finishes reading that line, a large amount of wrapped candy, cookies, cakes, and chips suddenly fall on top of him.]

[ Is the Cake the icing on Takumi ]

[Yeah Takumi doesn't have time to move and is just... pinned by snacks.

Toby just laughs and laughs- then makes an alarm sound to attract assistance cuz he has no arms to help Dad]

[ Okay okay. Time to check out what all of that noise is. ]

Huh? What happened here?

[ Instead of helping, he'll crouch down to poke at Takumi under all of that ]

I thiiiiiink there's a friend under here, but maybe I'm mistaken? Maybe I should just take a bit first to see!

Mrrf mrrrf!!!

[Sora, you ass. Toby makes a sing-song tone- yes, you should totes steal the snacks]

Do you want some, Toby?

[ :D :D :D

okay, he'll try to locate any bits of pink to start uncovering Takumi's face. ]

Let's see! I think I see something...

[You sure that's not just pink taffy? Nah, Takumi wiggles his head free]

You jerk!

What's that? Want some candy?

[ But next, he'll start looking for his arm to help pull him up. ]

Where did all of this even come from anyways?

From a Witch.

[Here Sora, have the note once his arms are free]

[ He'll take the note, and then take his hand to pull him up and out of the pile. ]

Did she think you belong with the sweets?

[ OKay okay, now he'll skim the paper. ]

Oh! That's where she went...

'Cuz I'm just so tasty~?

[He snorts and starts nibbling a cookie]

We should let the demons know: they were worried...

What do you think, Toby? Is he tasty?

[ He does grab a cookie off of Takumi to munch on. ]

Yeah, we should. Want to pass this around?

[A chipper sound of denial]

Traitor.

And yeah. Might as well share some of the snacks too. If I ate all these I'd die.

[That sounds like trouble.

Erhard jogs over to Takumi's room, carefully trying the door. What he sees first is a mountain of junk food.]

... Takumi, you're going to get sick if you eat all that.

[There's a muffled 'heeelp']

[Time to dig... wow this is a lot of carbs, Takumi, you're gonna die from something other than suffocation with all this sugar.]

Where did you get all of these snacks?

[Dig, dig, dig... oh god he's having flashbacks to cake duty... aha! He sees bright red hair!]

There you are.

[He carefully helps Takumi sit up.]

I... I think they were a gift?

[He holds up the note for him to see]

[He waits until he has Takumi completely extracted from the pile before he looks at the note. A slight frown pinches his brow.]

Another Witch? And she knows where Nirrti is....

She's the Witch that introduced Watanuki to Witchhood. And if Nirrti went there maybe she's her friend too.

... do you think she might know Nirrti's original name?

I wouldn't be surprised? But if the story in the book is right then maybe not: Nirrti forgot her name by the time she was cursing people, you know? That's probably what attracted the Witches.

There has to be a way to find it. But it was redacted in the book's memories....

[More magic bullshit. Erhard sighs and starts gathering up snacks.]

Should we take all this to the kitchen so people can share it?

Yes, please. You're right, if I ate all this I'd die. Gifts are meant to be shared!
