WEEK 8.

WEEK 8
Orihime Inoue and Mikazuki Munechika are dead thanks to the Wordsmith's motive. While only two have died this past week, it feels much emptier around here now.

There's only ten of you left. There's so few of you now.

Saturday is given to regrouping and rest; on Sunday morning the clock chimes as it always has, but at least there are no bodies to find today. It seems you're safe for now. The night before wasn't necessarily a peaceful one, however; you'll probably feel a bit groggy when you wake up, and it seems you've regained something that you didn't realize you'd lost...

Unfortunately, regardless of how well you may or may not have done this week, it seems that there's nothing else for you here. No new floors have opened up below the seventh; it looks like for now, that truly is all.

Perhaps it's a good sign. Perhaps it's one of the worst yet. Only time will tell.

~~APPRENTICES REMAINING: 10~~

ORIHIME SAYS NOT TO WORRY, SHE'S GIVING GOLD PERMISSION TO BEAT WATANUKI UP, BUT NOT TOO MUCH.

GOLD SAYS YOU GUYS CAN WATCH ALL THE PROTEAM OMEGA YOU WANT, AND EVEN IF HE LIKES ENTIRELY TOO MANY PEOPLE HE LIKES YOU MOST OF ALL.

...ALSO, WHILE WE'RE ALL BEING AFFECTIONATE, VARRIC IS WEIRD AS HELL AND WANTS SOMEONE TO KISS BIANCA FOR HIM. I HAVE NO IDEA WHO BIANCA IS, BUT APPARENTLY HE WANTS SOMEONE TO KISS HIS GIRLFRIEND AND I'M NOT GOING TO QUESTION ANYTHING TOO MUCH. MAYBE HE'S INTO THAT.

[BUT WAIT THERE'S MORE - ]

MIKAZUKI WANTS TO TELL YOU THAT HE MISSES YOU TOO AND HE'S GLAD TO KNOW YOU'RE HOLDING UP. ALSO WE WILL DO OUR BEST TO RIP THE WORDSMITH A NEW ASSHOLE, ONLY HE SAID IT A LOT MORE...MIKAZUKI-LIKE. IT WAS MUCH PRETTIER AND MORE FORMAL THAN THAT, TRUST ME.

WE'RE GOING TO FIGHT UNTIL THINGS END WELL FOR EVERYONE, BASICALLY.

[...Who the hell is Bianca?]

Varric can kiss her himself when we get out of here.

I don't know if anyone's said this yet [Because god damn if he didn't spend some time crying like a little bitch-] But we believe in you guys. Completely. You can stay safe from Kageshirou long enough for us to get you out. You guys do everything you can from your side, and we'll do everything we can from ours.

[But with that said, he's passing the chalk off to someone else. Gold likes him the most of all, huh... Good thing people can't see his face turn pink through the chalkboard.]

ALL RIGHT.

MERCY SAYS TO STAY STRONG AND KEEP YOUR HEADS UP, BY THE WAY.

[Lusamine will take the chalk then, while just...kind of smiling like hell? Man, this is so hope inducing.]

Please tell Angela that we shall have no problem doing that. We do not intend to lie down, no matter the circumstances.

It is a pleasure to make your acquaintance, Noir--I am Lusamine. I am so glad that you are all well over there. Your circumstances have been quite perilous and concerning, but it's wonderful that you are all a given value of well.

Would Gangrel happen to be among those at the meeting?

HE WAS AROUND EARLIER, AND I'M PRETTY SURE HE'S STILL AROUND - I'D TAKE A LOOK AROUND FOR THE WALKING LANDMARK BUT I'M ONLY 5'2" AND THERE ARE A BUNCH OF US OVER HERE SO IT'S NOT LIKE THAT'S GOING TO HELP MUCH.

IF HE ISN'T AROUND I CAN SEND SOMEONE TO GET HIM, THOUGH.

[...Ah.]

If he is not, please do. I would appreciate it immensely--as it stands, however, I do have a few things to say to the others.

Gold, Vanille, Orihime--I am glad to hear that you are all well over there, dears. I hope adjusting to that side has not been terrible for you girls, and I hope that you did not go and punish yourself, Gold.

Mikazuki, I apologize for doubting you. It seems as though you were correct, and I let far too much fear take over.

Alani, Judy, Christo, Killia, Phi, Varric...I hope you are all well over there, and taking care of one another so you do not fall into dark places. I have faith in all of you, I truly do.

KILLIA MISSES YOU AND WANTS TO COOK FOR YOU AFTER ALL THIS IS OVER. THE SAME GOES FOR SILVER, WEAVILE, JASPER, AND ESTELLE.

[...that's so sweet, what the hell.]

I'm certain that it will be well worth the wait--pass on my thanks, if you will, and the sentiment that we will all be looking forward to it.

[She'll pass the chalk off to anyone who wants it next, then!]

[Almost hesitantly, Hanyuu steps up.]

This is Hanyuu again. I'm relieved to know all of you are still there, and though I know you are doing so, remember to take care of each other, alright? Even those who you're angry at, I'd like you to work together for now.

This means Kira, everyone.

More than that, I have told some of you individually in letters but I wanted to say so all of you can see: Believe. It may sound silly and frivolous, but believe that this is not the end. We can pull ourselves out of here, us on this side and the bunch of you. Let that belief push you forward to do all you can. Believe in yourselves, because I believe in all of you, and I [She stops, and she crosses that out.] we will never give up.

So when we reach out our hands to you, I urge you to reach back.

Edited 2017-03-19 00:51 (UTC)

ALANI WANTS YOU TO KNOW THAT SHE'LL MAKE ROOM FOR A SECOND GOD, JUST THIS ONCE (SHE'S TEASING YOU, HANYUU, IT'S AFFECTIONATE AS HELL).

GOLD SAID SOMETHING THAT WAS ULTIMATELY DEPRESSING BUT HE MEANT THAT WE WON'T GIVE UP, YOU TAKE CARE OF YOU FIRST AND WE'LL TAKE CARE OF OURSELVES AND IT'LL ALL WORK OUT IN THE END.

WE WISH YOU LUCK, PARTICULARLY CHIYUKI. AND KIRA IS GOING TO HAVE TO RESIGN HIMSELF TO THE NOTION THAT WE'VE DECIDED HE'S COMING ALONG WITH THE REST OF US. HE ISN'T QUITE THERE YET BUT I'M PRETTY SURE PEOPLE WILL GLADLY ANNOY HIM INTO SUBMISSION.

[...Hanyuu smiles, gently.]

I'm glad to hear it. But Gold, don't be so down! If I can be positive, you can too, right?

Alani, I'll keep the Blue Mother alive for you, but don't you dare think you won't get the chance to spread her word yourself. It will be much better to keep her alive together.

For that matter: I know some of you may have unfortunate circumstances back where you are. When we all escape from here, while I don't know if I can offer up Hinamizawa as a sanctuary, everyone know that no one will be allowed to go back to such circumstances. We aren't getting out of here to return to suffering. Be it helping each other or escape, alright?

And all of you take care of Kimihiro and Bruce when they arrive, okay? They did a very stupid thing, but they tried to save everyone.

ORIHIME AND PHI WANT TO SAY THAT THEY BELIEVE IN YOU AS WELL, HANYUU, AND THANK YOU FOR FIGHTING FOR US FROM THE OTHER SIDE. THERE'S A RAZOR-THIN PATH THAT LEADS US ALL OUT OF HERE AND THEY BELIEVE YOU CAN FIND IT.

...KIMBLEY ALSO YELLED SOMETHING THAT I'M ASSUMING HE'D WANT JASPER TO HEAR, HOWEVER HE'S AN IDIOT AND DOESN'T SEEM TO REALIZE THAT THAT'S NOT HOW THIS WORKS. ANYWAY, IT WAS SOMETHING ABOUT HOW HE'S NOT GOING BACK TO "THAT TOWN HANYUU'S FROM THAT [HE] CAN'T PRONOUNCE" BECAUSE HE'S GOING WHEREVER JASPER'S GOING AND APPARENTLY THAT'S EVERYWHERE.

ALSO GOLD WAS TRYING TO BE DETERMINED AND NOT DEPRESSING, FOR THE RECORD, AND WANTS YOU TO KNOW THAT HE IS POSITIVE AS HELL.

"Because he..." [Hanyuu laughs and calls back to Jasper-] Kimbley's going wherever he can with you! I hope you don't mind!

Yes, yes, whatever you say Gold. ♥

For the record Hinamizawa might not take well to those who are less-than-human, so please don't chance it!

I thank you for your belief. It means so much to me, I promise I won't let it be in vain.

[And she'll hand off the chalk to whoever's next now.]

[cheerfully] It is going to be very awkward when Kira finds out he's going to jail!

[but anyways time to pick up that chalk.]

Hello everyone this is Sportacus! How are you? Is being dead okay? It sounds very boring but I hope everyone is getting along well with each other and eating right if ghosts can eat! I learned recently that living books can't eat which I think is very sad but hopefully you will all be alive again and can eat whatever you want even ice cream!

ZISKA DOESN'T EAT, BUT SHE LIKES TO HAVE PEOPLE WRITE TO HER. I'M SURE IT'LL MAKE HER HAPPY IF YOU TALK TO HER SOMETIMES! JUST MAKE SURE SHE ISN'T LONELY - AND DON'T WORRY TOO MUCH, SHE ISN'T SAD ABOUT NOT BEING ABLE TO EAT, BUT I'M SURE SHE'D LIKE IT IF SHE COULD.

BEING DEAD IS ABOUT AS OKAY AS IT CAN BE. WE'RE NOT TOO BORED HERE. SOMETIMES IT'S A LITTLE DULL BUT WE'RE MANAGING ALL RIGHT. WE CAN EAT! GOLD WANTS YOU TO KNOW THAT HE'S BINGING ON JUNK FOOD ALL THE TIME (HE'S KIDDING, HE'S DOING FINE) AND WE'VE BEEN EXISTING ON THINGS THAT AREN'T CAKE AND ICE CREAM ALL THE TIME, WE PROMISE.

YOU'RE THE ONE WHO FOUND OUT THAT KAGESHIROU EATS ORANGES, RIGHT? WE'VE BEEN FEEDING IT THOSE, SO IT'S EATING WELL TOO.

She does seem like a very nice girl! I will be sure to talk to her much more often!

Gold is being very silly but I am very glad he is okay! Knowing that you are all taking care of yourselves is very comforting to me! I'm also glad that it's eating oranges instead of eating [... shit it probably already went through what if he just. erases it with his elbow.] I will have to stock up on oranges before we all go to defeat the Wordsmith!

[and then he doodles an orange with a smiley face on it.]

Hello everyone. This is Estellise. I am incredibly happy to hear you are holding up. I was afraid what we heard on our end was a reality and I wasn't really sure what to do. Can you tell Mikazuki that I got his sword? And tell him that I am taking care of it. Also Killia. Please give him my regards. I miss them both so much and let them know that they are dear to me. That is all I ask. Thank you so much.

Oh, also a question! I touched the Kageshirou! It did something weird to my glove like it burned through it. Did something like that happen to those that were 'eaten' by it? Consider it something I'm morbidly curious about.

Anyway, again, I'm just so happy to hear that you are all hanging on!

Edited 2017-03-19 03:22 (UTC)

MIKAZUKI IS GLAD THAT YOU'VE RECOVERED HIM, AND ALSO THAT YOU'RE SAFE. DON'T DO ANYTHING TOO RISKY WITH KAGESHIROU AGAIN, AND HE'S SORRY THAT HE COULDN'T WRITE A LETTER BUT HOPES THIS WILL DO FOR NOW. KILLIA IS ALSO GLAD THAT YOU'RE DOING ALL RIGHT, AND SAYS THAT HE KNEW YOU WOULD BE.

KYRIE WANTS YOU TO TRY TO CONVINCE KAGESHIROU TO SEND SOMETHING TO US SOMEHOW, THOUGH SHE ADMITS IT'S UNLIKELY TO WORK. MAYBE SOMETHING WILL COME OF IT, THOUGH, WE DON'T KNOW.

My question was not answered, though I suppose I will not force it.

Tell Mikazuki that it's okay. I'm happy enough to hear this and that it does suffice. And give my thanks to Killia for his confidence in me. I will continue to fight.

Tell Kyrie I will attempt to send something. Despite it being dangerous to touch I did not get the feeling it was hostile and perhaps it will work with us. It would be something to attempt.

Godspeed to everyone.

IT'S KIND OF A MORBID THING TO ASK PEOPLE. FOR WHAT IT'S WORTH, I DON'T REMEMBER FEELING ANYTHING LIKE THAT WHEN IT DID THAT TO ME, BUT IT'S KIND OF HARD TO RECALL DUE TO ALL THE VISCERAL TERROR THAT COMES WITH BEING EATEN. IT COULD HAVE BEEN WHISTLING DIXIE AND SMELLING LIKE LAVENDER THE WHOLE TIME AND I WOULDN'T REALLY REMEMBER.

GODSPEED TO YOU, TOO - WE'RE DOING OUR BEST TO HAVE FAITH AND STUFF.

[Now that everyone has had a turn, Jasper approaches the chalkboard once again.]

Hello Noir.

It's Jasper again. Is Kimbley still there?

HE IS.

I want you to let him know something.

I don't know what is going to happen, but I am going to do everything I can to save him.

Everyone on your side is going to be saved, if we have anything to do with it, but I am doing this for him.

That's what I want to say.

HE SAYS THAT NORMALLY THAT SORT OF SENTIMENT IS WASTED ON PEOPLE LIKE HIM, BUT HE'LL MAKE SURE THAT THIS TIME IT ISN'T.
