WEEK 3 MINGLE

[foundationmods]

WEEK 3

Week three opens like the other two weeks, but when you wake up, you know there's been a change in the area. At first, nothing is wrong - but when you look at any window, you aren't greeted with the cheery sight of the outside - instead, there's just a cold, harsh blackness. Trying to leave out the doors is impossible, too - if you try, you just find yourself back on the couches in the lobby. On top of that....The Staff are beginning to act even stranger, their glitching out becoming more obvious. Sometimes, they seemingly go blank mid sentence and walk away, as if they were reset, and slur or stutter their words.

The weather is...well, non-existent, except for the courtyard, which is still pleasantly snowy. There is still music playing in the halls, and the cover songs continue with some low-key music for the week.

On Monday morning, another memory is returned to everyone. Another piece to the puzzle, one step closer to finding the truth of this place. Yet, it doesn't seem like you're any closer to solving this...

And time still ticks onwards, regardless if you're ready or not.

They can be rotten from the start, but they're usually not rotten all the way through. At least, that's what I think. That's what I've seen.

[She totally understands the cynicism because hoo boy. But also, she's seen firsthand what happens to good people in places like these. She's still seeing it. It makes her angry, but most of all it makes her determined to give them a piece of her mind. She's tired of just watching.]

There's all of us, and there's Kurosaki-san and the ghosts. There's more of us than there are of them.

[There's some strength in that, even if they're still the underdogs here. They're in enemy territory and there's no one at their backs. But then, it's the team part that's the strange thing here, isn't it?]

If they're rotten from the start, how aren't they rotten all the way through?

[ Roxas can't really understand it, not like that. But he's curious to know what she means, because he feels like he's just missing a point to it, that's all.

...Either way, he's not content on watching either. ]

...I think it'll be enough, with all of us here.

[ If he keeps saying it, he'll believe it in time. ]

We really just need to keep looking at things, learning more, and doing the best we can to defeat all of them.

Even if the organization isn't all that good at what they do, there's always going to be someone who believes in the mission.

[And most organizations have a mission that -- on the surface -- seems worth believing in. Or at least, it started out that way. She thinks back to Vyra and the other Knights of Hanoi. She's still not certain if she understands their beef with SOL Tech, but what she does understand is--

She's grown up in one sort of shadow and grows now under another. What keeps her going is, somehow, the people. So:]

And if our memories are true, then we've worked together before. We've dealt with things like SCPs. That has to count for something.

[This isn't their first rodeo or the first time they're working together, supposedly. It's definitely still weird. But she's okay with that, right now.]

...For better or worse, I guess.

[ Roxas wonders if there was anyone who really believed in the mission in Organization XIII. Maybe there was someone at the beginning, but...

Really, it's so hard to tell when he hardly knew any of them. ]

I think it does. [ He just has to hope that it means that they'll be able to find a way out of this together with that experience. And then break some Foundation guys' noses. ] Speaking of our memories, though, why do you think they got all fuzzy and are only slowly coming back? Do you think that was something the Foundation did too?
