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?

It's still risky. If you guys really want to show he's mean, ask him to just shoot you in the arm as a warning or something else.

[overconfidant]

[Akira pointedly points at the scar on his neck where a fortune cookie tried to kill him yesterday.]

We have healers. Plus Nora tries to fight anything that moves. A little violence might not be that convincing a show of meanness.

[darkremnants]

Even if it's temporary, bullet wounds still hurt.

[overconfidant]

Coming from Mr. "Pain Makes Me Strong" that's not a very impressive argument, Van.

[He likes you a lot but c'mon.]

Honestly... even if it's risky, having someone off the grid could be really useful for us...

[darkremnants]

They already have people off the grid sneaking around.

[ Aiming paw floatie at Akira now. beep beep ]

Besides, you're more useful here with the others.

[overconfidant]

Dead people and there's a pretty good chance the dead and the living are under different sets of limitations.

[Akira will not be beeped. He is the obstacle that never yields. He's going to try to steal your floatie, Vanitas.]

In what way am I more useful here than gathering information?

[darkremnants]

Not just dead people. He has friends who are part of the op.

[ And EXCUSE he's not getting off the floatie. ]

Who else is going to make me coffee?

[overconfidant]

Considering how bad he is at his part of the op, you'll excuse me if I'm not entirely reassured.

[What if he upends the floatie?]

You have hands, lazy-ass.

[scarsnstripes]

...He could beat someone up in public for a misstep. That's what Dazai-san did to... ah... his former apprentice, when he was still in the Mafia.

[He looks awkward for a moment.] But both he and the person involved need to be prepared for that... I could do it.

[darkremnants]

It would have to be someone he isn't attached to.

[scarsnstripes]

Right, we need him to be able to do it without breaking character....

[visionem]

That largely defeats the point, if so.

[dereban]

Not necessarily.

[ yes, hi, Inaba has some words. ]

Although I honestly don't. . . like the idea of Atsushi having to deal with that.

[ like.

god.

she really hopes that someone pushes her boyfriend away from the screen if they do wind up doing this because she's certain it's going to give him war flashbacks. ]

[scarsnstripes]

Inaba-chan. You know as well as I do know that that would be... fairly affirming, for people who follow the series we're in in this world.

[He grimaces.

He hates relating to Akutagawa and yet--]

...It'd do a lot to repair his image if someone they could relate to his former apprentice was in that position.

[dereban]

I know.

I didn't say I disagree. I said I didn't like it.

[darkremnants]

[ do you really think doezai would feel okay at all with hurting someone he's close to? ]

Let me ask him first.

[scarsnstripes]

I’ll ask him, too. If we do this it would be most effective if i did it, i think. It’s... if you’ve seen the series, you’d understand why.

[darkremnants]

[ He's shaking his head. ]

Like I told the princess before, I already have a good cover to talk to him. The Foundation knows I'm his spy and lackey.

[oceanicbutterfly]

[....................]

Is everyone working for him except me?

[iblistriggered]

I'm not!

[thanks Silver]

[dereban]

I'm not.

[ she's been helping him, sure, but not directly working for him. ]

[houndumb]

[DEADEYES WITH THIS EXTREMELY SURPRISED FACE]

Anybody here NOT a fuckin' spy for the Foundation or that asshole? Just me? Fine.

[scarsnstripes]

You're his spy?

[...Well.]

...I suppose that makes sense. But they also know precisely how loyal I am to 'Dazai'.

[darkova]

If him beating people is "in character" that may not be a bad idea. If we set it up I have ways to block pain.

[scarsnstripes]

I-It is, unfortunately. How he trained Akutagawa wasn't... kind. He's a much less violent person at 22 than he was at 18.
