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?

[dereban]

I'll do it.

[ her words are absolutely firm and there's an immediate coldness in her expression. ]

[allmyfriendsaredead]

[...She has so many concerns. But at the same time:]

...If it's okay with Atsushi and Dazai, it... might be our best option.

[dereban]

[ and then she closes her eyes and sighs.

it's as if the cold expression wasn't there to begin with. hm. ]

I'll talk to Dazai myself for my part on this.

[ she does glance at Atsushi though. ] And if Atsushi is alright with it, too, then. . .

[ it isn't a problem for her.

she has a good idea on how to handle it. ]

[odasaku]

We'd have to hide Dazai in a place without cameras. It'd be worthless if the higher-ups began to see double.

[dereban]

That's why I said swap.

If we can pull this off, he won't need to hide. He would just have to temporarily become 'me'.

[odasaku]

Well, maybe it won't be that difficult for him considering-- [ considering everything ] But what about the hair and stuff? Can he do that with his ability?

[scarsnstripes]

...I am. I'll ask Dazai first, but... you already know I can handle it, Inaba-chan.

[More than handle it, really.]

Honestly I'd be more worried about you, but if you say you can do it... I trust you.

[dereban]

I know.

[ she says those two words rather seriously. ]

And it's okay. I definitely can do it. Although I'm going to be irritated later that certain crap wounded up being useful to me in the present. . .

[ HOW IS IT THAT BODYSWAPPING IS ACTUALLY HELPING HER NOW ]

[houndumb]

I FUCKING OBJECT TO THIS.

[Of course he does. Dog with a bone and all.]

Where’s the backup plan if you fuck up? How badly would it screw us??

1 / 2

[dereban]

Then I just won't.

[ hard and cold she's not dealing with this today. ]

[scarsnstripes]

I can tell you right now I won't be messing up my part. There's nothing Inaba-chan could do to me that I couldn't handle.

[dereban]

. . . maybe not physically. . .

[ but psychologically?

yeah, she's pretty sure she can fuck him up. ]

[scarsnstripes]

Hm?

[????]

[dereban]

Ah, forget it.

If I told you now, it won't have an impact on you later. But if I say something cruel to you in the future as 'Dazai', I'm sorry in advance.

[scarsnstripes]

That's fine. If it'll help Dazai and everyone else, I'll do whatever it takes.

[A pause, before he offer a reassurance.]

And in advance... you're forgiven, for whatever you might say. I know it'll be an act.

[houndumb]

Ain’t you not handling it supposed to be the point.

[This is 1000% pot kettle because he can’t act either but??]

[scarsnstripes]

The point is to make it look like Dazai can treat me cruelly.

[A shrug.]

She could kick me or even shoot me a few times and it wouldn't kill me, Nora. But it would convince an audience.

[houndumb]

Yeah, I know you're a fuckin' cockroach, stupid cat, but there's a whole hell of a lot of acting between you an' Dazai and Inaba or whatever. I don't know what the hell is going on there.

Is there even a reason for him to beat you up yet, weren't you supposed to be macking on his shoes still.

[dereban]

[ --aaaaand then she just.

smiles.

cruelly. ]

Besides, it's not set in stone just yet anyway. But I'm the only one who can play the role of Dazai convincingly compared to everyone else here.

And on top of that: that's what teamwork is for, right? We back each other up. I'm not planning on messing up, though.

[houndumb]

[I mean that’s definitely weird and creepy because she’s usually weird but not creepy but also everyone murdersmiles at him so it’s fine. He brings out that side of people!]

I’m not askin’ whether you’re planning on messing up, I’m askin’ what’s going to happen if the whole fucking Foundation realizes one of us beat the other one to shit on TV, while pretending to be the Host, while trying to pull something WITH the Host.

What do you think’s gonna happen, huh?

[dereban]

They'll most likely kill all of us. We just have to make sure it doesn't come to that. We won't let the Foundation find out.

[houndumb]

And I'm sayin' I just don't trust you to pull this one off. It's a bad plan unless you can get that damn Dazai to do it himself!

[Honestly the root of most of this discontent is probably just his distrust of Inaba. Oops.]

[failsaw]

You're a fuckin' moron. You can't just decide some shit like "they won't find out".

You might be fuckin' suicidal, but not everybody here is.

[iblistriggered]

[Silver has a look on his face]

Since when do you make plans that far in advance? Didn't you just want to blow everything up and say "damn the consequences"?

[houndumb]

I don't make plans that far in advance, obviously.

[Is he just being a barefaced hypocrite here.]

Also, I just don't like it.

[Ah, there's the point. Is it even a point, mystery.]
