ROUND 5 WATCHING POST

[foundationmods]

Everyone who was there in some shape or form for the meeting on March 1st gets a notice that soon, the location where they'll have to go to watch what happened in the Winchester Incident will be made available for them. Frisk requests a list of those going to see what happened, but doesn't seem to discourage high numbers.

And shortly before the 30th, those that signed up will finally get a name and place - The Hayes Mansion, only a little bit away by drive from the Winchester House. As they drive, the more magically inclined might be able to sense a powerful barrier emanating from the direction the Winchester House is located, though they'll be unable to see anything.

Arriving there, they'll find that any and all other guests have been removed from the Hotel resort, and there's a sign on the door saying that it is Closed for major renovation and fumigation, which would explain the outfits you were given to be 'seen' walking into the place with, as well as all the vans and 'containers' you were told to put your belongings into.

Once inside, a helpful staff member directs you to put the costumes into a specific bin for collection- unless, of course, you would like to keep wearing them - and then another directs you to the front desk, where a pleasant, yet authoritative man is waiting.

[being rather familiar with the party involved, Inaba finds herself taking a glance over at Oda with a bit of concern - she's also a little worried about Atsushi depending on how Dazai reacts to it might be a problem.

it's strange, though...

Ango was always an important part of Buraiha, but...

she doesn't recall him ever showing up in BEAST......

and that thought alone makes her mildly curious, but she won't voice those thoughts aloud. instead, what she says-]

Hey. Do you want me to go grab Saki and--?

[you guys can leave for a bit? they can handle things on their end here as necessary because this certainly does not seem like something he should stay still for, much less keep his eyes peeled to continue watching.]

[odasaku]

No.

[ his tone is clipped, like a string that's been pulled taut and is about to break apart.

he shakes his head, frowning. ]

I...I didn't know this man. So it's fine. I just need a moment.

[ he just needs to sit down and look away from the screen maybe. ]

[dereban]

... Don't force yourself too much.

[she's honestly just waiting for the ball to drop and for Dazai to react to Ango's death after he comes back from investigating and more importantly she is noticing those glasses of whiskey and growing ever more concerned for both Oda and Dazai because, uh.

that.

that sure isn't going to give anyone war flashbacks, no]

If you need another drink, I can go grab something. Water, tea, coffee--

[please don't say alcohol

at this very moment, given the investigation please don't say alcohol]

[odasaku]

I-- yeah. Coffee.

[ he nods weakly. ]

Maybe I should step away for a while, if you don't mind.

[dereban]

[.............

she glances over at the screen, sees Dazai's reaction, how he wants to see the body--

"'don't call them dead unless you see a body.' that's what Dazai-san always told me."

she sighs.]

I don't. Nobody does, you know? And stepping out is fine, anyway - it's not as if anything related to Tages will show up here.

If you don't mind a conversation partner, or someone to just... vent to, I don't mind listening to. While making coffee.
