WEEK 5

[lockdownmods]

[ You're doing well! In fact, there's a nice message in your inboxes on Sunday reminding you about your midterm evaluations, and how those will be coming very soon. Make sure you're studying! And, of course, there will be support services on campus to help you cope with the stress. The message almost looks like it should go on and list what those services are, but it cuts off abruptly, and that's that.

Meanwhile, the wall is more ominous than it has been in the past. What felt oppressive last week feels oddly eerie, and if you let yourself stay near too long, it feels oddly comforting and calling. Your freedom is just on the other side of the wall, after all. But that's okay, someone has posted a warning outside all buildings to not go near the wall.

Oh well. At least there are new locations to explore!]

[ososoi]

Yeah, that... probably would've been better. Why didn't I think of that?

[ Because you were drunk and broken, Oso. ]

It's better than slamming my face into the wall for some goddamn reason.

[blackcatintheruemorgue]

I don't blame you after everything that happened.

[.... Wait he did what!?]

.... you slammed your face into the wall?

[He thought were were punching it or something!?]

[ososoi]

[ Oso was punching the wall, he was just also slamming his face into it. ]

Apparently! [ Points to the bandaged bridge of his nose. ]

The things you do when yer drunk, huh?

[blackcatintheruemorgue]

..... I... I guess?

[Poe mentally notes to never provide Osomatsu with alcohol ever again.]

[ososoi]

[ Too late, Hank already beat you to it. ]

Yep.

[ Oso goes back to looking over his photo album. He looks tired. ]

[blackcatintheruemorgue]

[Good. Well... Poe's not sure what to say now, so he just asks the first thing that comes to mind.]

........ Did you um... did... did you ever remember why that was wrapped up in duct tape?

[ososoi]

I already knew from the beginning.

But if it means having to risk looking at Jyushimatsu's creepy baby face so I can see my brothers again, so be it.

[blackcatintheruemorgue]

.... Creepy baby face?

[Don't you all have the same face anyway...? Wouldn't everyone's baby faces be creepy then since you're identical...?]

[ososoi]

[ It's weirder than you think. ]

...Do you really want to see that?

[ Oso can probably deal with seeing it. It's a price to pay so he can see his brothers. ]

[ Or maybe it's because he looked over the album enough times by now that he's gotten used to it. Like how he got used to Karamatsu's painfulness. ]

[ God, he still misses his brothers. ]

[blackcatintheruemorgue]

... I can't say I'm not curious.

[Curiosity killed the cat and all that.]

[ososoi]

Don't say I didn't warn ya.

[ Oso turns several pages before reaching one with baby pictures. Aww, how cute-- wait why is the last baby smiling like that ]

[blackcatintheruemorgue]

[Poe just blinks at the picture.]

It's mildly creepy, I'll give you that much.

[He's seen and come up with worse.]

[ososoi]

Yeah, it's... well, long story.

Actually, now that I've been looking at this, it's... not as creepy as it used to be? Or maybe I've just gotten used to it.

...Probably the latter.

[ This is what happens when you read the same photo album several times over. ]

[blackcatintheruemorgue]

..... I've got time if you wish to share said story.

[He doesn't have anywhere to be... and he can't say he's not curious.]
