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?

[For most of what remains of Saturday, Nanaka can be found in the Children's Bedroom, looking contemplative. She's always been bad at this comforting thing, but perhaps...]

...This might work. It would be good to take the books as well...

[...And on Sunday, something suspicious has happened: At some point when the bedrooms were empty, someone seems to have snuck in and left something on the bunks. Each of the dead have an old doll on their bunks, while Romani, Ango, Dazai, Marona, Rin, Sissel, Rosa, Battler, and Yachi seem to have had stuffed animals placed on their bunks (or on their cat-bed, in Sissel's case.

Of course, one can also catch her as she's attempting to go about this totally not creepy at all anonymous gifting spree.]

[oxidegreen]

[...Why is Nanaka exiting their room.]

...Did you need to find someone?

[white_camellia]

[Okay, busted, what to do? Find an excuse!]

...It is not so much that I need to find someone in particular, so much as I wish to do a checkup on how everyone is handling yesterday's events. This includes you, of course.

I understand that you were not close with either of them, but still, you were quite brave for revealing your summoning power.

[oxidegreen]

[.......Oh.]

...Thank you?

[This is something you thank someone for, right?]

sunday

[tsunderine]

[uh]

[she sees that, Nanaka]

... Were you the one who left this on my bunk?

[she was kind of ??? about it]

[white_camellia]

[Well, when she's asked directly like that, she has no choice but to...]

Would anyone even want a gift from me?

[Counter with another question instead!]

[tsunderine]

... I wouldn't say no.

[wait]

But don't dodge the question.

[golden_dream]

[Sorry Nanaka, she's been gaslighted all of yesterday and this...]

Ah... Aaaaaah!!

[white_camellia]

[Okay, that's concerning. Let's rush in to find out what's going on.]

Miss Rosa?! Are you alright?!

[golden_dream]

No! No I am not okay! Now there's something on my bed... Why is there something on my bed?!

[cw_suicide]

[probably much later, he's going to his room and






... hey.

Room 2.






why is there a stuffed animal on my bunk?

i can't lay on my face like this???]

[dreamshielder]

[oh he's damn aware how that got there, but eh.]

A secret admirer, perhaps?

[cw_suicide]

Ehhh... I already have enough admirers on my hands...

[kaliedoscopes]

Welcome back, too bad you've been replaced. [ Also is well aware of how that stuffed animal got there but today is just yolo. ]

[cw_suicide]

I guess I'll take my place as the monster under the bed, then.

[onemolife]

[ Sees a doll in Yuri's bed in Room 7.

Ah, that's a thing. He'll leave it alone though because then the bed above his can still be occupied. ]

[white_camellia]

[Look, there are many reasons for doing this. Like reminding them that they're not alone, and reminding us that they're still here with us, even if they're kind of evil now.

But yes, she should. Check up on him.]

...Xuanyu-san? Are you feeling alright? ...Aside from our situation being what it is, I mean.

sorry this is late

[onemolife]

[ At first, he doesn't seem to hear her, but then he realizes who she's talking to. Turning to look at her and giving a smile as he rubs the back of his head. ]

I'm fine! It looks like someone decided to keep Yuri's bed occupied in her absence. How very sweet of them.

Sunday, Room 4

[eyeforai]

[4 is the number for death as they say, and with 2 dead roommates already, Nanaka will presumably have to pass through Room 4 at some point to drop off her little care package to the deceased and Sissel. As both Olympia and Jack had top bunks, the dolls aren't too visible from the entrance, although the situation still begs the question of why someone is intruding in their room.

So Date's going to walk in carrying a couple of extra outfits and stare when he comes face-to-face with Nanaka.]

...Looking for someone?

[white_camellia]

[Yes, she is absolutely busted, but... Misdirection still works!]

I am not really looking for anyone specifically, though I am rather concerned about everyone's morale. How are you handling what happened?

[eyeforai]

[He still looks a bit skeptical, but misdirection is a success for now!! Just hope he doesn't notice the dolls eventually.]

Me? ...I'm fine. Besides, I should be asking you that, considering what happened during the trial.

[boardreversal]

[Well, a stuffed lion was the last thing he expected to get...but it's cute all the same, and he grabs it to go see if he can find who left such a present on his bed.

And in the process...]

...Tokiwa-san? What're you doing?

[white_camellia]

[...Well, she actually did actually get busted this time, with a stuffed animal in hand, even... How should she... even explain this...]

...Moral support?

[boardreversal]

Moral support...by handing out stuffed animals?

[He's not judging, just...kind of surprised.]

So you left the one I found, right?

sunday

[finalring]

Eh...?

[ roman had just been making his way back when he saw....nanaka? walking out of room 1?

he puts on a smile regardless, happy to see her...and also a bit confused. ]

Nanaka, were you looking for someone?
