Week 4

[foundationmods]

It finally happened. Someone murdered, and was punished for it. After a particularly grueling trial, one much worse than the games ever were, everyone definitely needed the rest of the weekend to rest up. But now it is Monday once more, and that means it is time to get back to 'work'.

The cameras have moved again, and the contestants will need to be careful where they say what until their new locations have been revealed. In addition to that, the house itself seems to have changed, with its usual colorful appearance suddenly a bit more grey. Even the weather seems to be gloomy, with those storm clouds from last week starting to overcast the area, threatening to drop rain.

Seventeen contestants remain in this game of death. How many more will fall before the game is over? And how many more will be driven to murder?

Hmm...

Would you like to try it with me?

[dereban]

If you don't mind, then I certainly don't. I've never had these before since they're pretty unnecessary for me [ AND SHE'S A FRUGAL FUCK THAT WANTS TO LIKE....... not spend too much money ] so it'd be something new.

[allmyfriendsaredead]

I don't mind. I've never used one of these either, so it would be nice to have some company.

[Share the experience!]

Want me to wait while you get changed?

[dereban]

It'll be fun.

[ there's a slight pause and then-- ]

Yeah, I'll go grab my swimsuit real quick.

[ and off she goes to do just that; she'll be back! ]

[allmyfriendsaredead]

[Cool! Saki will wait for her, though she may be dipping her feet into the water by the time Inaba gets back, just to test the temperature.]

Ready?

[And into the hot tub the bath bomb goes! It quickly scatters into hues of blue and purple and... glitter?

It's probably supposed to look like a galaxy.]

[dereban]

Yeah, of course.

[ might as well, right?

and she's going 'ooh' a little bit at how pretty it looks ]

That's not half bad.

[allmyfriendsaredead]

It's pretty...

[She dips a toe in and, finding it nice enough, slides into the hot tub properly.]

Is that all it's supposed to do? Color the water?

[dereban]

It is, isn't it?

[ there's amusement in her voice as she finds herself grinning ]

And yeah, basically.

[allmyfriendsaredead]

[She's just gonna splash the water idly, watching as the sparkles glint in the light.]

The colors are a little strange, but it almost looks like one of those photos of a galaxy.

["Strange" mostly because they're so vibrant.]

[dereban]

Yeah.

It's pretty.

[ WATCH THEM NOT CONSIDER A 'GALAXY' PRETTY ON SATURDAY, THOUGH

backtag hell is real ]

[allmyfriendsaredead]

[SPACE SUCKS, IT TURNS OUT. Except-]

...This is probably a strange question, but have you ever been night canoeing, Inaba?

[dereban]

[ it sure does my dude

but she does give Saki a quizzical look ]

Um.

. . . No? Why?

[allmyfriendsaredead]

[She just gives an embarrassed smile.]

It's just something I think about when I see stars like this. ...Or things like stars, I guess.

[Ahaha...]

It's something I did once with my friends when we were out on summer camp. A... friend I had a crush on gave me some advice about it, and for some reason I held onto it all these years.

[Even when she couldn't remember him anymore.]

[dereban]

Summer camp, huh.

[ she's never really been to one.

the only summer camp she's heard about was... not really good. ]

It sounds like fun, though.

[allmyfriendsaredead]

[It's okay, rest assured that this summer camp experience was also sub-par.]

It was... actually pretty harrowing. But before any of the bad things happened, we had fun being out on our own.

[She closes her eyes briefly in memory of it, feeling the warmth of the hot tub sink into her bones.]

"Don’t look at the fire. That’s the number one rule to night canoeing. You have to get your eyes adjusted to the dark as soon as possible or you won’t be able to see anything.”

It was such a simple thing, but it's still really precious to me.

[dereban]

[ summer camp is bad, actually..... ]

Guess there's no escaping shitty summer camps, huh.

[ not that she's ever been to one but. ]

I guess that makes sense, though.

[allmyfriendsaredead]

Our experience was... much different from everyone else's.

[Understatement.]
