[ imagine if they were only stuck for 5 minutes ]

Everything so far.

[sengokus]

[takeru slips away in 5 minutes and mineo's heart breaks]

Horror sci-fi murder mystery vibes.

[he had the same opinion weeks ago and it hasn't changed]

[dotcom]

This was so much easier when we were just indulging.

[ unfortunately, they're stuck for an hour unless mineo has a surprise ]

[sengokus]

Was it? People were still dying.

[mineo won't let go of takeru's hand even after the hour passes probably]

[dotcom]

Trials were easier to deal with than whatever this is.

[sengokus]

.... in a way....

[they were big moral quandary problems for mineo so he's not sure he can agree with that? but he sighs]

I'll give you that at least they were done in a day. But this is kind of a culmination of... weeks of being here.

[dotcom]

Yes, but if we fail now then all of those weeks were for nothing.

[ ...

he sits up and sighs. ]

It's fine, we'll figure it out.

[sengokus]

[ . . . . he just squeezes takeru's hand a little]

Yeah.

We will. We're not accepting room for otherwise, right? So all we can do is keep going forward.

[ . . . ]

You can rely on me if you're tired, though. I know we're putting a lot on you.

[dotcom]

Oh, I can do it.

I'm just not particularly the meeting type.

[ it's exhausting listening to other people talk ]

[sengokus]

[he's

just snorting a little bit at that]

You really suck sometimes, and yet I still like you so much. How does that even work?

[ah, a curse]

[dotcom]

You're lucky that I can't hit you.

Anyway, liking me is just good taste.

[sengokus]

It really is a defensive mechanism I didn't think about... I can say whatever I want today.... [he's not thinking about paying for it tomorrow]

I mean, yeah. I'm not going to insult my own taste by going back on it. Even if you are really mean.

[dotcom]

I mean... everyone that you like is kind of an asshole.

[sengokus]

Ah... Don't take this the wrong way because I like everyone here - at least left alive for sure - and I even like most of the people we've lost but....

Can you name a very friendly, easygoing, and nice person here besides Yuel-chan and Shi-san? Or Grace most of the time?

[grace gets mean but she's so nice to mineo

also he won't even include himself]

[dotcom]

Aoi?

[


and that's the list. ]

[sengokus]

That's true, she's really come a long way since the first time we met!

[from being a fuckbot with funky emotions]

Anyway, that does mean that overall if I like the people here, I'm probably gonna like some less than friendly people. But that's really fine....

[dotcom]

Mm...

I also meant a different kind of like, so your response is just unfortunate in that context.

[sengokus]

[ ? ]

Different kind of like...? You mean like... feelings?

[ . . . ]

Mm... It's not like I developed feelings for anyone because they're mean though...

[dotcom]

It might be your secret type.

[ ... ]

I'm only talking about this to distract myself from everything else that's going on.

[ god he hates this fucking curse ]

[sengokus]

Yeah, I know. And I'd kiss you right now if I could but it sounds uncomfortable for both of us, so I won't.

[he doesn't need a curse for that but it hits him anyway]

What exactly are you using me as a distraction from? And do you still want me to try to distract you?

[he doesn't mind as long as he has an idea of what takeru's running from]

[dotcom]

[ he just squeezes mineo's hand since he can't kiss him. ]

I just want to talk about something that isn't too serious. [ ... ] Who do you think cursed us?

[sengokus]

[squeezes takeru's hand back!]

I thought it was Sheila-san to be honest, since she was really determined to get me to apologize to you...

But then she seemed just as surprised as everyone else today.

[dotcom]

If it was her, it would have had to been an extra power. She told me about the one she has now before this happened.

I also asked and she said it wasn't her.

[sengokus]

I do think it's probably an extra power but... no idea who it could be. Someone who's too worried about our business after the weekend but doesn't know us well enough to realize we have it figured out?

[ . . . though.]

Well.

Most people don't really know how we work anyway, so that doesn't really shrink down the possibilities...

[dotcom]

Hm, I don't think most people have any idea what our relationship is like.

[ they think it's some weird bdsm thing actually ]

... which is fine by me until they start interfering.
