[CONTINUE] Week 1 || Act: mingle

[foundationmods]

Monday comes onto the snowy town once more, though it still looks as if it's 'night' as ever.

Then again, you are underground. That's just to be expected, considering no natural light can get down here in the first place. The Monsters around you are just as friendly as ever, despite this being your second 'time' trying this monday.

...Though....are there a few less Monsters here than there were before? ...Nah. You must be imagining it.

You still have a mission - and after the events of the last trial, you want to do your best to stop whatever is causing this.

But, hey. You really do have nothing but time now to figure it out.

[He could feel his shoulder ache, where the device had skewered his arm, then the tearing, and his lips pursed slightly, then a low, shuddering sigh escapes as if something just was sprung open.

He gets it - Amamiya gets it.]

It's very much like that... as I had told Solomon - when one appears, the other follows.

[le_mat]

Some of that romantic 'intertwined fate' stuff, huh?

[Romantic in the more literary sense]

Can't have a detective without a criminal to chase.

[But does that mean without one there is no other? The idea is terrifying]

[improbablenotimpossible]

Yes, I believe there's something like that in stories from Asian countries...

[He trails off thoughtfully as Ren said that 'Can't have a detective without a criminal'... He would like to think he can retire, and he had done so in life but was he so reductive as a Servant?]

I suppose I should explain it's a little more literal in our case. Some Heroic Spirits are "Paired" for the lack of a better word - if Karna is summoned, most likely his brother and killer Arjuna would follow - that is the same with us - me and that man.

[le_mat]

But you're not just a Servant- you're a man. At least here, in this world, that's the case, right?

[improbablenotimpossible]

[Odd, hearing that seem to bring a slight grin to his lips and he's not even aware why]

Yes, that would seem to be the case...

cw: drugs again

[le_mat]

[And Ren grins in return]

So, are you gonna want some of this when I have it handled? I don't wanna knock you off the wagon or anything...

Re: cw: drugs again

[improbablenotimpossible]

[He crosses his leg, giving ]

I admit - it is rather tempting, least it's not what's called 'hard drugs' now. I suspect if this gets out I might get a lecture from my paramour.

[le_mat]

Ah, the doctor, right? Well never let it be said I'm the type to cause romantic strife...

[improbablenotimpossible]

[His eyes does glint slightly]

Yes, that would be him.

[le_mat]

Well... medical marijuana is a thing?

[improbablenotimpossible]

[His impish little gleam brightens, laughing]

Naturally, it has been shown to have some powerful, less addictive pain-relieving property, and for many people, it can help with anxiety...

[le_mat]

See, then the good doctor can't get onto me for offering medical aid, riiiight?

[improbablenotimpossible]

Right.

[Oh he'll probably get an earful later - but better to seek forgiveness than to ask for permission?

Then quietly, he speaks again, softly]

...Thank you, for asking after me.

[le_mat]

[His expression softens and he nods]

Don't worry about it. I was... just concerned.

[improbablenotimpossible]

It's not often I get that kind of concern, I'll confess.
