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?

[ Grumble but he won't retort back. Also possibly somewhat of a minor actual concussion considering Subete yeeted him but it's fine. ]

Hopefully his imagination is as bad as his art, or he moves onto someone else. [ Because he could escalate all things considered but hm. ]

There were a few people he got along with, right?

[oxidegreen]

I think so. Mr. Sissel, Ms. Yachi, and Mr. Giovanni.

...

Although I think Mr. Sissel and Ms. Yachi get along with most of the people here.

[kaliedoscopes]

Yeah, I think that's true, Yachi certainly seems popular with one of our roommates too. [ He may not have commented at their public displays but you have a keen sense of these things when you're from otomeville. ]

[oxidegreen]

She does.

[She should know, she had a whole talk with Yachi about it.]

Maybe he'll get it through his head... but I'm not so sure.

[She's fairly certain by now that he's an idiot when it comes to those matters especially.]

[kaliedoscopes]

Get what through his head, exactly?

[oxidegreen]

That there are people who are going to care about him and he's going to need to learn how to deal with that.

[kaliedoscopes]

Considering his time so far in this mansion, does he seriously think otherwise? [ There are a lot of people here so he hasn't been keeping super close tabs on his roomies, but like. still. ]

[oxidegreen]

It seems that way.

[It's clear from her dry tone that she thinks this is incredibly dumb. Bitty judgment squad, etc. etc.]

[kaliedoscopes]

[ Sighs loudly. ]

And he was trying to lecture me before.

[oxidegreen]

Oh?

[Pray tell. Is this going to be a pot calling a kettle black situation?]

[kaliedoscopes]

[ Kindaaaa. ]

About being careful and not assuming things.

[oxidegreen]

Assuming things about what?

[kaliedoscopes]

A fair number of things, but mostly in regards to life experience. [ Shrug. ] I don't know my actual age or have all my memories, so he's not exactly wrong.

[oxidegreen]

So... you may have more experience with things thank you think?

[kaliedoscopes]

Yeah, but I have no way to back it up. It's just a feeling, I guess.

[oxidegreen]

What kinds of things do you have that feeling about?

[kaliedoscopes]

...family, for one.

[oxidegreen]

[...?

This is a subject she herself only has hazy memories of, so...]

Family...?

[kaliedoscopes]

Yeah. I have a twin brother who I barely remember at all.

[oxidegreen]

[Oh... huh.]

Do you remember anything you can tell me about him?

[kaliedoscopes]

They're bits and pieces but...when we were young, he was the one who protected me. I was shy and withdrawn and he was loud and unafraid of the world. We were opposites in both looks and personality, ah, actually—

[ He pauses and digs out his phone, pressing a few buttons and then offering it to her with an image pulled up. ]

I didn't know why I had that picture on here until recently. Can you spot us?

[oxidegreen]

[Peering at the photo. It actually takes her a second to identify them, though.]

...Is he the one with blue eyes and green shoes?

[kaliedoscopes]

Yeah, that's him—Yamato. Or that's the name I knew him by in the manor, at least. I was around him for several weeks, and I never would have guessed we were brothers...

[oxidegreen]

So you were both there with amnesia?

[kaliedoscopes]

[ He nods. ]

Everyone in the mansion awoke with amnesia, it seemed to have been a side effect of whatever happened that got us there in the first place.
