Week 8.

WEEK 8

Regardless of what you think of the most recent deaths, four more people have died this week. Milla Maxwell, Angel, Susan Ashworth, and Aligula are gone now, leaving you with about a quarter of your original number. Thirty-five down to twelve - this can't keep going for much longer, can it?

Is there anything you can do?

Saturday is given to regrouping and sleep; come Sunday morning, the clock chimes the hour at seven o'clock and there are no dead bodies to be found, so it can be assumed that all of you are safe for the time being. That said, you'll be feeling a little groggy when you wake up; it seems you've regained something that you didn't realize you'd lost...

Unlike the previous weeks, however, it seems that either you've reached the end of the line or Jericho has decided to stop rewarding you for your effort; where there would usually be a stairwell to a new floor, you're met with nothing but solid wall. Perhaps it's distressing; perhaps it's a good sign.

Only time will tell, and time isn't something you have a lot of around here.

PARTICIPANTS REMAINING: 12

[ what. ]

... Well bully on that, we're going to have to go get her.
heritrix: (space jam)

[That throws her. Rin startles.]

...What? What do you mean "go get her"? It's not that simple!
matchbreaker: (MY NUTS)

[personal profile] matchbreaker 2017-11-04 05:10 am (UTC)(link)
What are you talking about? She's your sister, you're her sister, and we're going to go and get her the minute we're out of this game.

[ She taps her finger pointedly on the table. Wait, no. ]

... Well and I get Sayaka and Alex to Shihaba, but after that.
heritrix: (you're so stubborn)

[personal profile] heritrix 2017-11-04 05:14 am (UTC)(link)
I'm telling you it doesn't work like that. [Rin clenches her fist.] Don't complicate things for me! I didn't ask for your help.
matchbreaker: (Go forth young boy)

[personal profile] matchbreaker 2017-11-04 05:17 am (UTC)(link)
You just told me about it! So what, do we need to crush the Matous? I'll do it.
heritrix: (rargh hissss)

[personal profile] heritrix 2017-11-04 05:23 am (UTC)(link)
I'll do it. I don't need you.

[Gritting her teeth, Rin folds her arms across her chest and aggressively at the other wall.]

I'll kill that bastard Zouken for everything he's done, and Sakura can live her life freely after that, in whatever way she likes. She'll want nothing to do with me, so I'm not going to drag her back to my house like some caveman brute, and I won't have time for more than that anyways. That'll have to be enough.

Don't look a gift horse in the mouth, mage-girl.

[ Elda smirks, licking a finger a little as she does. Well, on one hand. The other one taps on the table. ]

You've a ready-made ally in me, and I'll help you see it through. I can't say I know the girl, but I doubt that second part, if you can call that Matou man so awful.
heritrix: (I won't forgive you)

[personal profile] heritrix 2017-11-04 05:40 am (UTC)(link)
[Rin turns her head, and stares back at Elda again.]

Who would want to see the sister that was picked over you, if you were ripped from your family without any say in the matter. Terrible things were done to her, and that it was her and not me probably came down to a coin flip.

[She's gritting her teeth again, and forces herself to relax her jaw. But she's irritated now, and that probably comes across in the way she tosses her hair, and tries to project a level of calm she doesn't feel.]

The way she probably sees it, I stole her life. On top of everything else, I stole the boy she loves as well. You're crazy if you think she's not going to hold a grudge over any of that!

You're not her, Rin.

[ She'll actually use her name here, her voice holding firm. ]

Sounds like you did rob her of a lot, and sure, she's got every right to be pissed if she wants. But if you're planning a rescue, then you're planning a rescue. You don't get to pre-decide the outcome on her end any more than you're sane to refuse my help.
heritrix: (grimace)

[Whatever retort that was in her throat seems to stutter and die. Is that... She thinks that's the first time Elda's ever used her name. And maybe...

Rin looks away from Elda again, and her eyes move from side to side. Maybe she's right? Maybe it would be crueler to deny Sakura a choice than it would be to showboat everything Rin has and she doesn't to her face. Maybe it would be kinder to say goodbye, instead of spare her from the chance to get to know each other, only for whatever circus of a trial the Mage's Association is going to make her go under, which will likely see her fleeing on the run.

She knows what Shirou would say, if he were here. She can't let herself think of that, not with this motive. It'll break her heart completely. So Rin shakes her head and stands, intending to leave the dining room.]


I can't think about this right now. I have bigger problems.

[She's going to walk away, without looking back.]
