[Week 5, Sunday: Waver, Rebecca, Natsuo]

[doublecrows]

[he knows that Waver is. . . probably not in the best state of mind at the moment. but what Akechi has to share is Important with a capital I. and so, soon after the execution, he gathers up the remaining Historians and ushers them to the library for an information sharing session]

I apologize for the short notice, and the. . . [waves. a hand] Timing of this meeting.

But I've discovered how to reach a "happy ending" for this game. I've also learned about the other extra titles, much like our own, that exist in this war game.

I'd rather not wait until Monday to tell you all.

[after a moment of scrawling on a piece of paper, Akechi produces this]

A more streamlined version of my notes, as you can see. This list can be for the sole purpose of tracking factions and completed objectives.

[londonstar]

In other words, the heroes have completed the necessary amount of objectives.

[ except now all they need is to, well, die. ]

If you don't mind, Goro, I believe we should add which Narrators have already died...to understand it with more ease. Those who have died and that we have no idea whether or not they completed their objective... maybe we can send them a letter asking?

[randori]

Objectives affect the amount of ink that we get every week, right? We should pay attention from now on.

[ A tall task considering how much goes on during each execution, but, well. ]

[doublecrows]

Yes. But villains are sorely lacking. With how few we have left, we truly need to encourage them to meet their goals.

[TIME TO KILL SOME HEROES. . . GET SOME VILLAINS TO KILL SOME HEROES. . .]

And yes, I believe both of those things to be fine ideas.

[disclosures]

[Give her a moment to look this over.]

Evan is Peter Pan.

[doublecrows]

[he quickly makes that change on the parchment]

Thank you, Bunch. And do you know his newest objective?

[disclosures]

He needs to be pushed out a window from a very great height.

Varian's trying to make him a parachute.

[doublecrows]

[. . . . . . oh my god]

Incidentally, Hikage-san needs to push someone out of the tower. Perhaps you should ask the two of them to work together.

[disclosures]

I've barely ever talked to Hikage. I talk to him during trials and that's it.

Who get the title out of him? They should try to get them to work together.

[doublecrows]

[hmph]

I'll pass the information to Hikage-san, seeing as I got his title and objective from him. He doesn't wish to kill anyone, so Evan-san should be safe.

[disclosures]

You can always lie and say you talked to Evan about it. Hikage won't know.

[londonstar]

Ah, but Eichi has a gift of enhanced strength, does he not? In the odd chance that Varian is unable to make a parachute, perhaps Eichi could actually catch Evan, too.

[ he shrugs ]

It's a shame no one has the gift to fly.

[doublecrows]

[BRISTLES AS SOON AS WAVER MENTIONS EICHI-- oh he's talking about. him catching Evan. okay that's fine]

I'm actually surprised the Peter Pan title doesn't have that gift.

[disclosures]

You and I can both heal him too.

Evan said it wasn't his gift. Weird, since he's Peter Pan. If anybody would have it, I was guessing it would be that title.

[doublecrows]

Quite true. I'll have to instruct him to not tell anyone who he heard it from, as well.

[londonstar]

Thank you.

[ he's just gonna... take Akechi's pen and write on the back of the paper his own list. it's pretty much the same but this one's a little better organized. ]

Do you know if he's completed an objective?

[disclosures]

He's done one. He convinced like three people to break the rules. Remember when they broke into Tiger's room? That was him doing his first objective.

[londonstar]

Fucking god. [ he grimaces ] Well, at least they made it out alive.
