week 1

[vicedirector]

seven vices week 1 ♫ monday - thursday Monday morning begins just like the rest, slow and uneasy. At 12pm, every television will go off with its usual bout of static, followed by a calm, albeit disinterested, voice. "Please gather in the hotel lobby within the next hour." That's all that it says before the televisions turn off. Anyone not in their rooms will hear the voice echoing around them as if through a speaker system, although there are (still) no speakers present. Curiously, anyone who has spoken with Miata for any period of time during the past week will notice that the voice coming from the television and her own do not match up. Come Tuesday, the footsteps around the void will begin drifting away from it. The pitter-patter of feet can be heard when standing outside the clinic and chapel as well. On top of the food that was added to the kitchen last week, spaghetti noodles and tomato sauce is now available. You're welcome, Papyrus. >Mingle?

And if time were actually moving as our minds would lead us to believe, it actually would make for a very compelling motive. [Hell, he himself would be really tempted? His people are working on a time limit to find a new home planet, after all. They've only got 60 years.]

However... [He gestures to the clock.] This is little more than mind games.

[minogame]

Even for a spirit, it's hard getting used to... and our sense of time is already different from humans.

( What's ten years when you've lived over five hundred? A full human life seems much shorter in comparison. )

It'll be easier if everyone remembers they aren't alone. It'll make the waiting better if someone's with you.

[symbologic]

Ah, that's right...you're not human are you, Urashima? A sword spirit, wasn't it?

[Man, he didn't even think about how this is going to affect all the "people" here with stupidly long life spans. His own is longer than an Earthling's, but even Eldarians aren't immortal.]

I've actually been curious about what that entails. If you'd like someone to pass some of he time with, I wouldn't mind doing so. Provided you're okay with sharing that information, of course.

[minogame]

Heheh, that's right.

( And he's a proud sword spirit at that! )

Hm? I don't mind! I'd like it, really. ( Someone to pass the time with, that is. ) You can tell me about yourself too, if you want!

[symbologic]

I believe that would be an excellent use of our time. The more we all know about each other, the better off we'll be, no?

[Friends don't murder friends?? Everyone be friends, nothing can go wrong if they just do that.]

[minogame]

( That's right. Friends don't murder friends. #EarlyMurderGameDays )

It's important to know as much as you can about your friends so you can help each other out~

( Allies might be a better word but look, we're all friends here. )

[symbologic]

Indeed. Would you like to go and discuss things now? Or shall I come and find you at a later time?

[minogame]

We can talk now if you want! Or later! ( What an indecisive spirit... ) There's plenty of time.

( . . . )

I didn't mean it that way!

[symbologic]

[He chuckles lightly.]

However, it is not an incorrect statement. [He gestures towards the door.] If you have no objections then shall we go for a walk?

[Walking while talking will probably be better than sitting and talking, right? Probably not, because imagine how long it's going to take to cross the town now...]

[minogame]

I don't mind!

( But instead of walking with Faize... he sort of skips ahead and waits for Faize to catch up. Look, he's really excited? )

Tell me what you want to know!

[symbologic]

[And catch up, Faize does, though by walking instead of skipping.]

Well I suppose the best place to start would be...what is a sword spirit, exactly? I can sort of guess by the name alone, but I've never heard of such a being before.
