nobody's in the mood for recording 6.9: the post-trial garden tea "party"

[tsunderine]

The flowers that bloomed at the end of the trial are ones that only seem to prove, continuously, that the road to hell is paved with good intentions.

Of course, it's only natural that many of the people are full of mixed emotions - grief? sadness? anger? frustration? maybe something else completely different?

But it's there, along with the end of the week.

Miasma still continues to be around, of course - but make use of the fact that this might be the last time it'll be at a low level one before it shoots up again.


Well.

Life continues as usual, disregarding any feelings that any of the house's occupants might be feeling.

So what are you doing these next two days?

[cw_suicide]

Probably.

... do you know where the tea is?

[it's probably somewhere obvious.]

[oxidegreen]

I think I saw it over here...

[She'll go and get the tin and the kettle.]

...I can prepare enough water for both of us.

[cw_suicide]

[so uh

this just happened

and now Dazai is staring at a bleeding hand with some alarm???]

[oxidegreen]

[WHAT IS WITH HER ROOMMATES AND HER LOOKING AWAY FOR FIVE SECONDS.

Her eyes narrow at the sight.]

I think we need to attack it at the same time.

[Tea is left on the table, and she's drawing her sword.]

[cw_suicide]

[pushing the sword back into its sheath his his non-bleeding hand]

Ignore it, just... patch me up?

[oxidegreen]

[It's reluctant, but she'll sheathe it again.]

Alright. Please wash it out in the meantime.

[She'll be quick though, running back to their room - and thankfully, she's very fast when she needs to be. She'll return with her first aid kit soon enough.]

[cw_suicide]

[he is probably still rinsing out the wound when she gets back.

it's nothing major but it does sting.

trying not to stick it in his mouth because i mean that's how you do wounds, right?]

... that was Sho-kun's thing, right? Shouldn't my touch have negated it?

[oxidegreen]

[...Oh. She takes out the rubbing alcohol and wraparound bandages.]

I think so... it was one of the monsters he told Miss Yachi about, isn't it?

[cw_suicide]

... but the miasma itself isn't... effecting me?

[the fuck?]

[oxidegreen]

[The fuck indeed.]

Can you... tell that it isn't?

[cw_suicide]

... honestly, how people describe the miasma just sounds my a normal Tuesday for me.

[oxidegreen]

[Concerning.]

...Then again, if it did affect you, it should feel even worse than normal... right?

[cw_suicide]

I would expect so...

[oxidegreen]

[...]

Let's... hope that it's not affecting you. Maybe it's just making that thing stronger.

[Which is a completely different worry.]

[cw_suicide]

I really don't need the help with the negative emotions, that's for sure.

[oxidegreen]

I don't think anyone here does. Considering the powers of everyone here... if these negative emotions keep worsening over time...

[It's... not going to be pretty.]

[cw_suicide]

Marona-chan.

[breaking into that thought because... he already (thinks he) knows how bad it's gonna get]

... even if they get worse over time, I'll still appreciate your help.

[oxidegreen]

[His words make her pause. After a brief moment, she nods.]

I'll do my best. I'm not... very good at being optimistic.

[cw_suicide]

Nor am I.

But I figured it's best to say these things now before that sort of thing makes it harder to believe later.

[oxidegreen]

[Another nod!]

I'll try to hold onto it.
