Week 5, Saturday

[foundationmods]

[Saturday arrives, and the contestants are welcomed back to the Studio officially at noon. When they arrive, they ill find that the entire place has been rebuilt, and that both the power and the cameras are back on. It took a week, but those prinnies have been working hard.

The studio is ready for them, with the stage having a raised circular platform on it. On that platform are twelve smaller circular platforms, arranged in a semi-circle so that everyone can see everyone and also be seen by the cameras once they are in place. There appear to be no assigned spots, but only one person is able to enter each spot.

Dazai stands there as well, smiling and ushering everyone in.]

Come on in! Pick a platform, and we'll get started.

[SHRUG]

I don't need proof. I'm not here to punish him for anything. I just saw all the frogs and wanted to see what was going on.

But maybe you should be a bit more careful with someone playing favorites so blatantly. And maybe you should ask him who he intended to have die today.

[And then he presses a button, and the floor of one of the platforms drops out.

The one that Dazai had accidentally backed up onto, and had been standing on until it decided to fall out from under him.

Bye Felicia.]

[duskhound]

[Yep, she's dashing over to that platform and preparing to jump down. What's down there, anyways?]

[darkremnants]

[ Just going to grab the fabric of her outfit. Avoiding actual contact while keeping her from jumping in ]

[duskhound]

[Your assistance in preventing her from taking a death is appreciated, Van. As well as your respect for her boundaries.]

[darkremnants]

[ Shit. Fuck playing it cool, he's going to nyoom over to look down to see. Where is he and how bad is it ]

[oceanicbutterfly]

What--

[Karen immediately sprints over there and looks down.]

[guileturncoat]

[Luckily the platform is narrow enough that he was able to throw out his hands and legs and keep himself above the spikes. But his limbs are shaking from the effort of keeping himself up.]

Um.

Anyone got a rope?

[oceanicbutterfly]

[Karen doesn't but she's wrapping both arms around one of his.]

Help me! [, she says vaguely in Vanitas and Ellie's direction.]

[darkremnants]

[ breathing out and just going to summon his keyblade. Lowering it down for him. ]

Here.

[guileturncoat]

[With Karen grabbing one of his arms and Vanitas using his keyblade to help, Dazai will be able to get out of the hole.]

[darkremnants]

[ Once he's out of the hole, he'll just give him a look for a moment or two before moving away. ]

[oceanicbutterfly]

[Karen just sits there on the ground next to the hole, clutching her chest as she tries to catch her breath.]

[duskhound]

[...Okay, okay he's safe, the panic can stop now...

Yeah, no, she's going to be fussing over you for a while, GT.]

[duskhound]

[...Yeah, she'll just. Help the other two where she can.]

[dereban]

. . . I see.

Honestly, I think it's really fucked up, though, if he's picking and choosing favorites like that.

[ you know what?

let's twist it like this. she can work with it. ]

I have a guess as to who you are, exactly, but perhaps a proper introduction should be in order so I can confirm it?

[foundationmods]

Just someone who wanted to see some frogs.

[And since the frogs are gone, he'll toss the remote to the ground and just. Fukken walk off the stage.]

[dereban]

Sounds fake, but okay!!

[ JUST GONNA YELL AT HIM while he walks off the stage ]

[darkova]

[Ingway wants to run over there too- but he grits his teeth and holds his ground]

[prayerwheel]

Ingway, the chain.

[ whispered

GRAB HIM PLEASE??? ]

[darkova]

They have him- I would rather not turn my back on this man.

[Sorry babe]

[houndumb]

[There’s an involuntary snort over here because Nora has been doing nothing if not trapping Doezai every single time he’s seen him at his office so. There’s a cock of his head as he listens with his dog demon hearing for crunching or screaming or anything, because there’s probably like 6 people at the trap door by now.

This guy is still getting the side eye, though.]

Yeah, yeah, you pop up outta nowhere and go on and on, who the hell are you again?

[foundationmods]

[No crunching, no screaming. Dazai is probably fine.]

Just a passerby, nothing more.

[houndumb]

[Just going to stomp over as he attempts to walk off I guess.]

Yeah?? Well I’ve never fucking seen you before and aren’t they supposed to shoot anybody else tryin’ to come here.

[Once more with feeling and his lance pointed.]

Who the hell are you.

[foundationmods]

[He pauses just before leaving the studio.]

That right there? That's an interesting question. I wonder what the answer is.

[But then he's gone. Bye everyone.]

[iblistriggered]

Nora!! [Silver hisses, then points to his own eye] Did you see anything?!
