[CONTINUE + 2] 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 third 'time' trying this monday.

There doesn't seem to be many Monsters here...or at least, you think there was more before? Huh.

Well, whatever.

You still have a mission - And with two trials under your belt, you're now a little closer to figuring things out.

...How much longer will this repeat?

If you turn around and close your eyes and I find a window, break it, and push you in, you can pretend that someone framed you for breaking and entering.

[...Inaba?

Anyway, she will be looking for any windows, though.]

[justonezero]

[Yoshi will circle around opposite of Inaba, also looking for windows!]

[foundationmods]

[There are windows, yes.

Please tell me you're at least looking in the windows before breaking them.]

[finalring]

You've got to be kidding me.

[ INABA????? he is a little horrified but you know what...

he's not saying no to it.

he's looking through the windows. what can he see through them? ]

Please tell me you have considered what you and Yoshi would do if someone caught us?

[dereban]

Look, it's a last resort option. I don't know how to pick locks. Unless you or Yoshi do?

[And we're not breaking the windows yet, no. Looking through them first to see what we've got first before making any risky decisions like that.]

I have a few good ideas, though.

[Coming up with an excuse, that is...]

[justonezero]

All my physical stats are super low! That include DEX!

[He is peering through the windows on his side too though!!]

[foundationmods]

[It's full of weeb shit. Whoever lives here is a huge anime nerd. There's even body pillows in there. Multiple body pillows.]

[finalring]

...Wow. That is an amazing collection?

[ SOLOMON?

he pauses, looking around. ]

Before we try picking locks-- [ wait, does he know? ] we should check if any windows are unlocked. The last thing we want is to cause a scene unnecessarily. And if we're caught, you two should hide.

[ and he'll try opening the window and others that he finds. are any of them open? ]

[dereban]

[Not going to even mention the anime stuff immediately, but when she speaks up again, it's as quiet as ever.]

Of course. But if that's the case...

[Inaba's going to quickly take the DVD from her bag and put it out for Solomon to take, if he'd like to.]

Here's your perfect excuse. Say you need to return it. If the owner isn't the one that catches us and there's already a copy, just say it's "the copy that they loan out to other people".

[Because that sure is a stereotype.]

[justonezero]

[Kyaaaaaa.]

I want to be friends with whoever lives here!

[Yoshi. Focus.]

[foundationmods]

[Focus indeed. You have an anime DVD, and you are by a locked window. What do?]

[finalring]

[ he will take the anime dvd!

and in turn he will be giving inaba the cloak that gilgamesh gave him. ]

And if things look bad, you and Yoshi should run. I don't think this can cover the two of you, but at least one of you can hide, I think.

[ we will be going around to see if there's a back entrance? ]

[dereban]

[...]

If things look bad, we're not leaving without you.

[Her words are insistent, to the point where she makes a gesture to not accept the cloak.]

I don't plan on leaving anyone behind. If only because it'd be shitty as all hell if we tucked our tails and ran, Solomon. If you want to offer that to Yoshi, you can, but I won't take it.

[But she has no plans on sacrificing herself, or anyone else in this trio, either.]

[justonezero]

We're a team, aren't we?

[Following, trying to find any signs of a way in :<]

[foundationmods]

[Unfortunately, the only way in or out is the (locked) windows and the (locked) door. Finding a key card to get into the front door might be a good solution. Or, you know, bringing the nasty crimechildren thieves of the party.]

+1 marisa

[finalring]

[ well they don't have a key card and they don't have the time to go get one. so what they're going to do instead is get one of the nasty crime children--marisa to be exact--to break in for them! ]

I'm sorry we had to get you in such short notice. If it had been a regular lock I suppose we could have picked the lock but...

[ gestures. whatever. ]

If you could help us, that would be great.

[dereban]

Hopefully it won't be too difficult. . .

[Fingers crossed?]

[justonezero]

It needs a key card...

[lovecolored]

[ Marisa looks positively gleeful as she surveys the situation. ]

Okay...here're your options!

I can try to get the lock open through the crack of the door, but that might not work, 'cause it ain't a regular mechanical lock.

Or...we can smash the window open.

[finalring]

We are not smashing the window open! That's what we wanted to avoid.

[ goddammit marisa! ]

Do we have anything that can help open the lock? I have a knife.

[dereban]

I have a swiss army knife myself.

And matches, but I don't think that would really help much.
