w0, saturday

[dms]

[ don't mind kazu he's whistling as he goes through the mansion and offers nogiku a wink and a wave! ]

Hope all the beds aren't taken already; I could really go for a good nap.



[ he's also wearing a colorful balloon hat so you know that's a thing ]

[pura]

[Why is he winking... Where did the balloon hat even come from... Nogiku just frowns, watching him.]

... If you're that tired, then go find one now. They don't have our names written on them.

[dms]

It'd be super creepy if they did! Like a real horror movie where the big bad knew we'd be here all along?

[pura]

[Her frown just. Deepens at that, for whatever reason.]

I guess. You don't think there's someone behind this?

[dms]

I mean, someone has to be, right? Even if it's not the big bad. We had to get here somehow.

[pura]

Well, obviously... It's not as if we came here of our own volition.

[dms]

Exactly! So whoever's behind setting this place up is probably the same one who brought us all here, too. Maybe this whole thing is just like a big haunted house for them, who knows?

[pura]

Anyone who has the ability to create something on this scale, and chooses to use it on something like this, is wasting their talents. Not to mention, our time.

[dms]

Mm... If they used for making sets, I think that'd be pretty sweet, but maybe not for kidnapping a bunch of people, you know?

Any idea why they'd want us here? Maybe it's a social experiment?

[pura]

Not really... Maybe they enjoy the power trip. [A shrug.] Your guess is as good as mine.

[dms]

Could be! At least they've given us time to get to know each other here. That has to count for something!

I'm Kazunari, by the way - Kazunari Miyoshi.

[pura]

[...

Is that really a good thing? She does not say this.]

... Nogiku.

[dms]

[ better than doing nothing! ]

Ohhh, cute! Nice to meet you! Sorry it had to be in a place like this, though.

Where were you before? Doing anything interesting?

[pura]

[Just very blatantly :/ the moment he says "cute."]

I was home... Nothing interesting about that.

[Kazu does not deserve this, but after a pause, Nogiku follows up with:]

Why do you care, anyway?

[dms]

Why wouldn't I? We're all here together, so we might as well get to know each other.

[pura]

[... She gets this look on her face, like she's wondering if extroverts have rights.]

Right. We might as well. [Doubt. Anyway...] Then, I have a question for you. Where did you get that hat?

[dms]

Oh, that? The clowns gave it to me. Cool, right?

[pura]

... Huh. You're talking about the clowns in the carnival?

w0, thursday

[dms]

[ to the medbay! kazu's just bouncing around everywhere to check things out with a big, dumb grin on his face. ]

Whoaaa, check this place out! Fancy AF! What are these, med pods?! Hey, you didn't get hurt cleaning stuff up, did you, Nogi-Nogi? We could totally give it a whirl and fix you right up!

[pura]

[opens her mouth to reply

immediately snaps it shut

?????????]

Nogi-Nogi?

[dms]

Yeah, that's what I said.

[ is there a problem ]

week zero, friday.

[pura]

[well.

that sure happened!!

anyway, here's nogiku at the meeting hall gardens. she's dead eyeing the physical version of the invitations everyone received, grumbling to herself. it's hard to make out what she's saying.]

[dms]

[ hmmm? he's curious and heads over to be nosy because why not but he lights up when he spots the invitation. ]

Ooh, you got the original copy, huh? Does it look better in person?

[pura]

Clarte-san has one, too.

[But she turns the invitation towards him, so he may see both sides of it.]

Be the judge of that yourself.

[dms]

I didn't know he made multiple copies.

[ but yeah! time to check this thing out! after a moment, he gives a little laugh. ]

...Guess there's a reason I handle most of the design work back home.
