WEEK 6

[lockdownmods]

[Week six comes like an ominous wave. If anything, the wall is more threatening that it's ever been. That sign from last week? Looks aged-- like it's far more than just a week old. But more than that, it feels like something is waiting to snap this week. What could possibly go wrong, after last week?

Said no one ever, at this point.

But still, if you look around this week, you might find out something. It's like someone has started leaving clues in places old and new. Take a look around.]

[...Nod.]

[foo_bar]

[excuse this, he's pulling his arm away??? no?]

[foo_bar]

Look, seriously. Ryota. You need to calm down-- I know this course is getting to you, believe me I know. But you can't let it drive you to paranoia.

[buriedearth]

[ .... ]

Does he really need to be restrained like this?

[ Sure, blocking the entrance is different, but something like this he thinks is a little extreme. ]

[ososoi]

[ TROUBLED NOD ]

[swordsinternally]

Yeah... there's probably a camera in this room, too, I'd bet.

[unhalting]

[He'll take it if Han doesn't pull away but like. Either way he looks back at Rantaro.]

How much do you trust what you're seein' here?

[whatsmytalentagain]

[Well... The door's blocked, like Terra said. He'll let go so he can finally write down a coherent answer.]

IDK but I think Han might have been hiding something since last week.

[Han's getting a good look at the notebook as well, especially since the next sentence is directed at him.]

Han, if you're not spying on us for the Administration, then you better find a way to come clean. ASAP.

[lovedanime]

Not everyone is that strong! That's the ENTIRE POINT of this "course"! Some people are weaker than others and DIE in a place like this! "Chin up" is all you have to say to that?

[foo_bar]

I literally work for them.

[HE JUST. SHRUGS.]

[throwabookatit]

Terra's right, is this...necessary...? Remember, we might- we shouldn't provoke anything.

[unhalting]

[fly free, our maple syrup benefactor]

[whatsmytalentagain]

[Sigh...]

We know you have to work for them, but you wanted to help us right?

[lovedanime]

These points are... tiny...?

[It's almost more of a relief for her to say it outright though, what she thinks of him. He is giving it a rest.]

[foo_bar]

[he understands where this line of questioning is going but]

Look. I think it's safe to say that something went wrong with this adventure, and we should all leave, before anyone else notices.

[foo_bar]

Yeah, because there are enough people around that you should be able to depend on them. Depending on others is part of the whole chin up philosophy here.

[he Frowns]

[unhalting]

You say that like he hasn't been hiding shit this whole time. Pretty sure it comes with the territory.

[Also...]

Besides, you really think it'd be a good idea for him to admit it in full view of the cameras?

[whatsmytalentagain]

...

[Ah... Right. Cameras.

Facepalm. Sorry.]

[whatsmytalentagain]

[...

There's a sharp nod, then scribbling something else.]

We'll talk later.

Should we turn off the simulator thing?

[unhalting]

[He pauses and just. Gestures to the notebook and pen. Lend it to him for a sec, will you?]

[throwabookatit]

[ Rebecca sighs, looking away and...twirling the drill. ]

Well, it was nice while it lasted.

[lovedanime]

"Should"? That's like saying a vase pushed out a window "should" stay intact! You know by now it's not realistic!

[unhalting]

It'd make sense with the timing too. Was a little too good to be a coincidence.

[whatsmytalentagain]

[He flips it to a clean page, writes on the top line, and hands it to him.]

Sorry, I got carried away for a sec.

[ososoi]

...Right.

[ Well, this ended terribly. ]
