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.

[ He gives her a quiet huff-like response before waving a hand vaguely in her direction. ]

Yeah, yeah. Go ahead and get it out of your system.

[ ANYWAY!!! ]

I just need some practice, and then I'll be able to make you eat those words.

[jumpedtheshark]

[At that, she fully allows herself to let out all her laughter.]

W-well, I'll be waiting in anticipation for your eventual mastery of the game.

[Tsumugi's laughter has died down enough for her lean forward and look at the arcade machine he's at right now. What kind of game is he playing?]

[enter_the_darkness]

[ It issss... this!

... Vanitas has no rhythm nor has he ever used a gun, but. Listen . . .

It looked cool. ]

While you're waiting, how about you show how good you are at it?

[jumpedtheshark]

A rhythm shooter game... yeah, I can do that.

[She's better at rhythm games than shooter games... but she is a Danganronpa. When she starts the game-- after reading the instructions first. Always check the sides of an arcade machine for them.-- she picks it up fast. At this rate, her first score is going to be higher than Vanitas' last one before the game ends.]

[enter_the_darkness]

[ Well, it would be a lie if said there's absolutely no desire to distract her? To put a stop to her crushing his score?

... But, in the end, winning through cheating would make him look even more pathetic, wouldn't it? This has nothing, at all, to do with the fact that some part of him has grown to like her. Nothing, at all

He will just take a loooooong sip of his drink as he watches, studying her technique closely. ]

[Good choice Vanitas. It's eventually clear that Tsumugi is finding a pattern in the song and following it accordingly. This seems to work out well, as when it's over, her score is comfortably above Vanitas'. She seems pretty damn pleased with this, almost smirking.]

I didn't expect my Project Diva skills to carry over... but I almost feel plain bad at how low your score is in comparison to mine.

[Almost.]

[enter_the_darkness]

[ He narrows his eyes firmly. ]

Rematch.

[jumpedtheshark]

A challenger approaches!

[A polite smile bordering on smirk.]

I’m not going easy on you, okay?

[enter_the_darkness]

If you did, I'd be pretty insulted.

[ LET'S DO THIS...

... hopefully better than the last time, Vanitas. ]

[jumpedtheshark]

As expected of you, Vanitas-kun. Always rushing towards the next challenge, huh?

[True to her word, Tsumugi does not go easy on him, turning her complete focus to the game. Still, if he payed attention before, he might be able to start closing the score gap.]

[enter_the_darkness]

[ While he's not much against a person with experience in rhythm games, he's got the advantage most outright newbies wouldn't have: excellent reflexes that combine well with being a quick study.

So, he's doing a lot better than he did, last time! ]
