WEEK 3

[lockdownmods]

 [ Week 3 rolls around the corner-- with all the loss of joy after the trial. Can you keep up hope after everything that's happened? On top of that... it would seem that that whatever has effected your memories here-- it's beginning to wear away.

You're not stuck in the same place forever. Ssssort of, anyway. The stairs in the main building appear to have been uplocked and now... now you have access to a whole new floor of rooms. At least that's something!

Welcome to week three of the semester.]

[swordsinternally]

I'm not talking about you, idiot.

[covertizer]

But I am still suffering.

[ Help. ]

[swordsinternally]

You know, I don't get anything out of helping you eat that.

[covertizer]

... There's nutrients, and tofu?

[swordsinternally]

You know I can just cook something else that has both that won't kill me, right?

[covertizer]

[ Look. ]

... My eternal gratitude and a favour?

[swordsinternally]

Look, you...

[...]

What kind of favor would I even ask for?

[covertizer]

That's up to you!

[ ... ]

But within reason. You can't ask to throw me over the wall or anything extreme.

[swordsinternally]

I'm not throwing you over the wall.

[...]

It's probably dumb of me to say this. And maybe it doesn't really count as a favor... but all I really want from you right now is to live. That's all.

[covertizer]

That's good to know.

... I don't plan on dying, so I wouldn't waste your favours like that. I have a lot more I need to do... and go back and fix.

And if you're thinking of favours, does that mean I should get a second plate?

[swordsinternally]

I really wouldn't know what favor to ask, though... there's nothing that really comes to mind that I can't already do on my own.

[covertizer]

It's not a limited time offer. Use it as incentive to stay alive yourself, while you think of something.

[ HE REALLY REGRETS THIS TOFU OK. ]

[swordsinternally]

....

[ It's probably bad that Shirou does have an idea now but.

He's a coward to say it so-- ]


Fine. I'll get another plate.

[covertizer]

[ VICTORY. ]

Hang on, I'll get some more water as well.

[swordsinternally]

Alright.

[ He is, however, going to get up and walk right to get a plate of mapo tofu, though. ]

Important question, by the way. Do embarrassing favors count.

[covertizer]

...

[ Mm. Hmmmm. ]

... What sort of embarrassing are we talking about?

[swordsinternally]

W- Well...!

[ Crap, maybe he should abort the mission immediately, because his face is turning red just thinking about it and now he has to just. Hide his face away, as he mumbles the rest, looking far, far away from him. ]

Just... forget it. I'll think of something else.

[covertizer]

[ Oh.

No, now he's interested. ]

What were you going to ask?

[swordsinternally]

Now that you're asking about it, I really don't want to say anything!! Besides, it's probably better that I don't force you to do something like that, anyway, and--

[ A bunch of other excuses that he can't think of right now, especially the thought that's on his mind that he's pretty sure he's just into girls. ]

[covertizer]

[ Whoa there Shirou. Breathe. ]

You can keep it in reserve. Promises of favours don’t have a time limit.

[ ... a pause and then: ]

Besides, the longer we talk the colder the hell food gets.

[swordsinternally]

Y-yeah, let's just... eat first.

[covertizer]

Alright...

[ Looks like this can't be put off any longer. ]

The sooner this is finished, the sooner I know never to try the Mapo Tofu again.
