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?

A shark?

[ hey buddy whatcha up to

azura watches the...item mobile...wtf is that slime thing??? ]

[visionem]

[ He blinks a bit then smiles at her. ]

Yes, a shark. I think any species will do but preferably one not too large.

[ The item mobile slows down a bit once he realizes she's watching. ]

[prayerwheel]

Why?

[ alas, azura has not experienced Sharknado yet ]

[visionem]

To carry out an experiment that Nora suggested.

[ ...alcor hasn't either. Also how deep do you want to go down this rabbit hole. ]

[prayerwheel]

An experiment to...see if you can make it float around?

[ SHE'S READY

TELL HER YOUR STUPID PLANS, ALCOR ]

[visionem]

[ Frowning. ]

No, of course I can make it float. [ D'ya wanna try one more time... ]

[prayerwheel]

Then what?

[ it's fine she's patient ]

[visionem]

To set it on fire.

[ Star is chaotic alignment if last week wasn't enough indication, but put two chaotic people together and you get stupid ideas. ]

[prayerwheel]

[ ......

................................................. ]

Why am I not surprised this was Nora's idea?

[visionem]

Because he is a demon?

[ Bein helpful. ]

[prayerwheel]

[ box

you're lucky that you're pretty ]

I doubt his being a demon has much to do with his...unique take on life.

[ nora's just an idiot tbh ]

Anyhow. Am I interrupting your "experiment," or may I borrow a bit of your time?

[visionem]

[ Hey there's a reason he has these ridiculous eyelashes. ]

Is that so? [ But he won't pursue this topic considering her question. A lot of demons are like this in his experience. Then again, Nora is Nora. ]

No, I was just finishing my preparations. I cannot lend you time in this universe, but I can certainly converse with you instead.

[ ...sometimes he still takes things too literally. It's a work in progress. ]

[prayerwheel]

That is what I meant, yes.

I suppose, ah--I was wondering how you were feeling, this week.

[ since he was pretty down on sunday ]

[visionem]

[ Smilin cause woo he did it \o/. Ah that question though. His face shifts into somewhat of a neutral expression. ]

I am as I always am, Azura. [ ... ] Or I am "getting there".

[prayerwheel]

[ She really shouldn't be feeling bad for him, because he did have a hand in last weekend's death clusterfuck, but this is Azura "Offered Healing To The Assassin That Broke Into The Camp and Tried To Kill Her" McFireEmblem, so she does anyway. ]

Sometimes that's all one can do, sadly. "Get there."

[visionem]

[ He wouldn't blame you if you didn't Azura, his boxyness goes both ways. ]

It is something I have not necessarily enjoyed learning, but it is likely a worthwhile experience nonetheless.

[ He stops the mobile and the items fall around him neatly in a circle. ]

Did you wish to continue our talk from last weekend?

[prayerwheel]

I think that sums up most of life's unpleasant parts.

[ a short laugh ]

If you're feeling up to it, certainly.

[visionem]

Yes, that seems likely. I am very much still learning what it means to "live", so it is both complicated and enthralling at once.

[ He nods. ]

Since you offered, shall I answer a question of yours first?

[prayerwheel]

[ Well. She could ask him "what are you, exactly?" because she is curious about that, beyond what little she knows (that he's some millennia-old "watcher" or something and is also a star and also a box?)

but... ]

So, besides setting sharks on fire and enjoying coffee, what do you like to do in your free time?

[visionem]

Ah, I actually do not enjoy coffee much. Or that was the case just a few short weeks ago. I am making every attempt to acclimate myself now, however.

[ He won't address the shark thing tho, small blessings. ]

I enjoy watching all of humanity, including all of you. [ Stalker box but-] If you are talking in the context of hobbies, then my answer is chess.

[prayerwheel]

Even me? [ said wryly ]

Chess, hmm? That fits you. [ because it's a stereotypical smart-people game ]

[visionem]

Of course. [ He meets her smile. ]

Does it? I was not very good at it when I started.

[prayerwheel]

My, I'll have to watch myself from now on, if I have a frequent audience.

Chess gives off this air of, how shall I say it...intelligence? Knowledge of strategy and all of that. Has your game improved since then?

[visionem]

If you are capable of doing that in your sleep, I will be very impressed.

[ This is him admitting that he watches people sleep as a hobby nbd. ]

Ah yes, I understand. It has, I think. The person who taught it to me is the most intelligent human I have met so it was difficult playing against him.

[prayerwheel]

[ wait a second ]

You...watch people while they sleep?
