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.]

Ahaha, let me guess! You're asking me if I know what happens with you two?

[blackcatintheruemorgue]

I... wouldn't mind hearing that... but that's not what I wanted to ask about.

[How to put this....]

On the off chance that we both return to our world alive... and Nakahara somehow finds out who I am.... what do you fancy your chances are against him?

[Poe knows that he'd be doomed alone... but Gogol on the other hand....]

[sendintheclown]

A gravity manipulator and a man with his own dimension...

[Any attempts to weigh him down with debris or hit him with projectiles would only backfire, but Gogol's greatest weaknesses and strength lie in close combat. A couple of attempted punches, a kick, and he'd have all he'd need to take.]

I guarantee it'd be quite the show, with a short runtime.

[blackcatintheruemorgue]

It'd.... certainly be quite the fight.

[Poe tilts his head in thought.]

I... don't think he'd willingly fall for the same trick twice... but I don't think he'd expect your Ability.

[And people do have a tendency to automatically read text put in front of them....]

If... we work together... then it's possible we could catch him off guard.

[He has no idea what he'd do with an book containing an angry mafia though... mail it somewhere very far away... maybe France or something? That's nice and far.]

[sendintheclown]

[Oh Poe, you have no idea how exceptionally stupid Chuuya is.]

Do you plan on killing him?

[That's the question that comes before any further discussion.]

[blackcatintheruemorgue]

[He really doesn't.]

I'd rather not invoke the full wrath of the Port Mafia.... I'm more looking for time to potentially flee the country in that event.

[He'd... be sorry to go... but he'd rather not die via gravity.]

[sendintheclown]

Oh, boo. That's less fun!

[blackcatintheruemorgue]

.... I never said you couldn't remove an leg or something to keep.

[Sure that'd also make him mad... but it'd make it easier to out run him.]

Or um... take his hat... start a collection.

[One of those options is safer than the other.]

[sendintheclown]

I don't think we'd have the same tastes.

[The leg's the safe option. He's not stupid enough to touch the hat.]

[blackcatintheruemorgue]

[Always take the leg. Always.]

True... you're more a top hat person...

[sendintheclown]

And I do have a preference for body parts!

[blackcatintheruemorgue]

I've noticed.

[Grantaire's Head was a thing.]

[sendintheclown]

My birthday is March 31st, just so you know.

[Wink.]

[blackcatintheruemorgue]

.... I'll be sure to write it down then. Perhaps I could find you a late birthday present around here....

[He... thinks he saw some stuffed animals in the arcade prize stall? Maybe he could try and get one of those larger ones... He wonders if there's any vultures. Gogol reminds him of one. Loud, has a neck frill, found near dead bodies...]

... Oh... and... um... mine's January 19.

[sendintheclown]

I'll finally get you that crow!!

[Clearly he doesn't have enough animal companions.]

[blackcatintheruemorgue]

Raven.... and... um... I'm not sure Karl would like to have competition for attention but ah.... I'd um... not be opposed to such an idea.

[It fits his aesthetic.]

[sendintheclown]

...Can you teach them to talk?

[blackcatintheruemorgue]

Ravens can learn to talk better than some parrots.

[They're very smart.]

[sendintheclown]

Then I'll teach it a bunch of fun jokes for you, too!

[They will not be fun.]

[blackcatintheruemorgue]

Knowing your sense of humor... I'm not sure most people would qualify them as 'fun'.

[Poe might get a kick out of any dark jokes though....]

[sendintheclown]

Even if you don't, I definitely will!

[A relentlessly mocking bird...only a gift Gogol could ever truly appreciate.]

[blackcatintheruemorgue]

I'm sure you will... honestly... I'm expecting a bird version of you at best.

[His lips twitch upwards into a small smile.]

Perhaps I should name it after you and give it a tiny top hat.

[sendintheclown]

You can give it a little neck ruffle too! A little pom-pom on the leg!

[blackcatintheruemorgue]

Oh I will. You could make sure it's a white raven too... those do exist. You do vaguely remind me of one sometimes anyway... although I'd still consider a vulture a more apt comparison.

[sendintheclown]

I'll try my very best!

[...

His tone's still lively, but he sounds a little more serious.]

You won't keep it in a cage, will you?
