[Week 2, Tuesday: Waver, Sousei, Rebecca, Natsuo]

[doublecrows]

[AND SO, history repeats itself, and the long-awaited reunion of the past murder game's alumni occurs. . .]

[. . . in the library!1]

[Akechi is already there by the time people start filing in, his parchment sitting in his lap, quill tucked between his fingers. he doesn't say anything at first, but PRESUMING at some point he and Natsuo exchanged Historian names with each other and then told the others who was part of this group so they'd all know prior to the meeting, he nods at each one in turn]

I imagine you all have been quite busy these past two weeks?

Comments

[doublecrows]

[oh thank god because Akechi definitely did not catch that]

Does she know who has that title?

[doublecrows]

You have to mean it.

[and yes, he clarified with the Crafters :/]

Words are meaningless if there is no warm feeling associated with "love" accompanying them.

[though to be fair, they didn't specify which kind of love]

[randori]

[ shakes Akechi's shoulder ]

Sousei's cool. Say it.

[disclosures]

[THUMBS UP, Waver!!

She points at herself and the points to the word "partner" in the book in front of her.

Her partner.]

[londonstar]

[ again, waver looks shocked for a second. he then shakes his head, mumbling something like “damn that well”, but, finally, he sighs, shrugging ]

I see. I don’t believe I need to tell you to not to waste that sort of kind gesture. [ a pause ] I...cannot fix his wounds completely, that much I know. However, I will do my best.

[randori]

I mean it! I obviously love you a lot! I cried on you!!

[ HE HAS STRONG FEELINGS OF... SOMETHING............

platonic love, maybe, but maybe the Crafters will accept nothing but Akeichi ]

[londonstar]

Her partner. Lady Cardia, correct?

[disilluded]

[...]

I have more information than this, though I suppose for now I will begin with objectives.

Fane's objective is to spread baseless rumors. Souji's is to execute two in those farcical executions. Clearly, neither of them has any intentions of doing so. My own is to restrain someone and allow them to be killed. I do not intend to do that one, either.

[disclosures]

[Nod! Yeah, that's her partner, and she's the fairy godmother.]

[londonstar]

Tasteless.

[ waver grimaces ]

However, baseless rumors are not that difficult and are not necessarily harmful. [ he smirks ] The Crafters deserve some about them.

[disclosures]

[She winces and holds up two fingers, then three fingers.

Two deaths the first week.

Three people died last week.

What if it keeps going up?]

[londonstar]

I think I’ve made it out of one too many “wars” unscathed. My luck will most definitely run out some day.

[ a shrug ]

[randori]

Then, I'll talk to Reyna!

[ turns his head to Akechi and shouts his direction (he's been shouting a lot... this is the library, why did they choose a public space for their ~*~*secret*~*~ meeting??) ]

—Akechi, if you see Reyna coming, run away! I'll take care of her!

[randori]

No. I keep everything in my head. There's plenty of space in there.

[ BECAUSE IT'S OTHERWISE EMPTY INSIDE ]

[randori]

Yeah, I've got a guardian angel! But you're still a dummy! Who cares if people know what your gift is- if you can heal people, you should use it! Summer needs you! And Ion and Souji and all those people who'd gotten burned or hurt 'cause of the well! You could've helped them!

[ Unless he got Waver's gift/objective completely wrong and he can only heal Humpty Dumpty and nobody else, but. Let him yell. ]

[londonstar]

Ugh, I’ll see what I’m able to do! [ he grimaces ] And, first of all, who the hell is this “Summer?”

[randori]

You'd better! [ Apparently everybody's getting cut Wednesday. Do you magic ]

Summer's Hikage's roommate! Stephanie! Bat suit girl!

[ Batgirl whose name he rejected when they first met and so he renamed her. ]

[disilluded]

... I wonder if that would count. I did not get the exact details out of him, but it is worth suggesting.

[Hmm...!!]

[disilluded]

I suppose we are here because of "luck", to begin with.

[Though he hates that.]

Surviving one game only to be thrust into another in a more dangerous role is aggravating.

[disclosures]

[... Dear lord...

She taps on his hand again.

Q U I E T]

[disclosures]

[While Natsuo is here she points to herself before tapping

H E A L

F O R G E T

onto his hand.]

[londonstar]

Especially when you take into consideration how aggravating the Crafters are on their own. [ he shakes his head, frowning ] I can only imagine what will happen now that we've all come together.

[londonstar]

We wouldn't lose anything by trying. If anything, it would be quite nice to get back at them, if only a little.

[ he's so petty. So. Petty. ]

[doublecrows]

I believe we have more important matters to discuss at the moment, Natsuo-san.

[HE WON'T SAY IT]

[doublecrows]

I see. So Miss Cardia.

Do you know if there are any restrictions on how many partnerless Narrators she can save?
