week 5, tuesday

[aubins]

[ reading is what?

fun-da-men-tal.

this is especially relevant because they don't have to be nice bitches anymore. but here they are, in the library with the quiet and books. whatever sasazuka's doing, yuri is just going to slide into the seat opposite him. ]

Not rushing to the spa alongside everyone else?

[dotcom]

Do I look like someone who would go there?

[ does it look like he knows how to relax in a normal and healthy way????? ]

[aubins]

You look like someone who could use a trip to one, honestly.

[ ahhh.


we love not-nice week. ]

[dotcom]

Did you need something?

[ he WILL leave ]

[aubins]

Yes, yes. Don't get your underwear in knots.

[ he taps the table with his finger. ]

Discussion of powers, and also I ran the "the dead get eaten" thing past Despair. Who was more vague that Wrath was, but I get the impression it's something we shouldn't dismiss as hyperbole and maybe something we need to look into, if you aren't already.

Sound like a worthy discussion to you?

[dotcom]

[ he will stay. ]

I guess what we need to figure out is exactly what is doing the eating then.

[aubins]

[ thanks pal ]

What, and also how. Despair phrased it as "in a sense", whereas Wrath just said "they get eaten" -- which is very Wrath of them, honestly.

Perhaps it's less the dead are literally eaten, and more... what of the dead is being eaten. If that makes sense.

[dotcom]

Whether it's literal or not, we still need to look into it, especially considering that we can join them any week.

Even if the Avatars can't tell us outright, there should be a way for us to get some kind of information if we keep digging.

[aubins]

Well, that's the point. If I'm theorising, it's probably linked to indulging. I wonder if whatever we're doing for indulgence is generating something, and that something is only... released? Or accessible? If we die.

[dotcom]

Oh. Speaking of-- did you get anything from home yet?

You don't have to say what it is, just if you received it.

[aubins]

[ he just lifts his left hand and waggles it slightly. ]

[dotcom]

Apparently some people are close to getting another one.

If there's anyone who hasn't received one at all, then they're the ones lagging behind for indulging. Basically, we can gauge how well we're doing based on how many others have gotten.

[aubins]

Oh I see. So the more you do, the more you gain.

[ he glances around. ]

I should figure out something to do here and add another one to my list.

[dotcom]

[ he also looks around. ]

Like what?

[aubins]

That's what I'm trying to figure out.

[ give him a moment, he'll ... come up with something. ]

What about you, did you receive an item?

[dotcom]

I did. It's in my room... there's not much point in keeping it on me.

But just keep a look out if anyone mentions getting a second one, and then judge how long it takes you to get another one. It's a good way to see how behind you may be.

[aubins]

[ sasazuka your ~*~*indulgences*~*~ ]

Oh? Interesting.

I'll keep my eyes open. Especially if people are close, we might find more things start appearing this week, or early next week.

[dotcom]

[ he nods. ]

Have you figured out what to do now?

[aubins]

Indulgence wise?

I could research something random and talk your ear off about it. That probably counts for something, right?

[dotcom]

You'll have to get me to stay here long enough.

[aubins]

Or hunt you down later.

[dotcom]

Another stalker...

[aubins]

Oh, you're a popular man here then, are you?

[dotcom]

[ muttered, ]

I hope not.

[aubins]

[ pfft. ]

Why? Not feeling especially social, ever?
