Week 3: Sleepover with Karaoke!

[latebluemer]

[The weekend is ever-creeping towards them, which means it's time for another gathering -- this time in the newly-accessible second floor, which comes with some of the amenities of the first but better. The soft room is pretty much ideal for this sort of thing, and if there are any windows someone's probably hung a blanket against the void.

Extra kotatsu from long-ago sleepovers have been brought up, there are snacks and drinks scattered amongst the endless blanket nests and pillow forts, and karaoke and the animal cafe are just next door. They can choose to head out for those attractions or bring in the pet animals of the cafe if they'd like. Anything is possible if you believe.]

Never have I ever not died.

[whirlingmace]

[ This should get most of you ]

[resortghosts]

[Bunnyhoodie droop.]

[whirlingmace]

[ Whoops. She didn't think...

Just going to hug him ]

[resortghosts]

[Hug!! But it's a little less energetic.]

[dereban]

. . . what?

[ Inaba actually freezes up when this one is said and doesn't immediately drink. ]

[whirlingmace]

What's wrong, Inalin?

[dereban]

I didn't know... that you've died before.

[duskhound]

[...Doesn't drink.

This sure is an awkward way for some people to get confirmation about her condition, huh?]

[jumpedtheshark]

... This is a plain awkward way for this to come out.

[Hey there fellow not-drinking buddy.]

[duskhound]

It really is. I mean, I think a few people figured it out already from my talks about my condition, but...

[latebluemer]

[... It takes a moment before she takes a quick sip, quietly. Though afterwards, her stare is on the starter.]

Cinque...

[whirlingmace]

It's okay, Blueski. I'm here now with all of you.

[latebluemer]

... Yeah.

[Just going to go ahead and lean on her.

It's a cozy nest in here of blankets and pillows and all manner of things, but it's still chilly when they talk about death. There's death above them and all around them and maybe outside, too. She was trying not to think about it. But.

She thinks about it. Monday. They can go home if they die. But--]

Is it really okay? Just being here with us.

[It's quiet enough not to demand an answer. Regardless, they'll probably be talking about this later. Right now she just curls up against the chill.]

[theycallhimmrpchan]

Cinque-san...

[He couldn't believe it, but it's pretty sad to think about. He hasn't drink yet]

[whirlingmace]

I'm okay! Honest. I really like it here.

[delusive]

[oh... well then. katherine doesn't actually drink to this one] You've died before?

[whirlingmace]

[ Giving a nod and then just swaying back and forth. ]

Before coming to this world.

.....

[Wow, that sure is Tsumugi not drinking. Real awkward way for this to come out.]

[latebluemer]

Shirogane-san...

[Well, there sure are a lot of you now. Go figure. It makes her go back over all their conversations a little and wonder, though mostly she just looks unhappy about the state of the dead affairs here.]

[diesifkilled]

[...Doesn't drink.]

Sorry, Cinque.

[whirlingmace]

It's okay. I wasn't alone then, and I'm not alone now.

[enter_the_darkness]

[ Sooooo......guess who's not drinking. ]

You, too, huh?

[whirlingmace]

[ Giving a nod. ]

Yeah. But we're both here, right?

[jumpedtheshark]

That makes four of us so far...

[Maybe they should start a club? The Not Dead Yet Party? Got A 1-Up Crew?]

[latebluemer]

[Just glancing over at him quietly. It's not as surprised as it could be. A second chance, huh?]
