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?

I see.

[ At this point, after so much, he would consider it at least a possibility. ]

If that is the case, then, it is good for your own sake you that you have not lost it.

[okuri]

[Yoite shakes his head as he searches for the words. It wasn't a good thing, his continued existence could never be a good thing.]

No. It's not supposed to be like this. [ A beat.] It's unnatural.... don't you think?

[dhaosu]

Even if I said no, it wouldn't change the fact what they are doing is.

[ ... ]

Regardless, you seem to be bothered by it in your case, even if it would benefit you. Am I wrong?

[okuri]

You're wrong in that it would benefit me, because it doesn't. [ Continuing to live was in a way, the polar opposite of disappearing from existence.]

But it does bother me.

[dhaosu]

....

[ He doesn't understand, only because the one he is speaking to he presumes is a human, and humans liked to live, right? ]

And why is that?

[okuri]

...because I don't want to live. [ Neither did he want to die, when you got down to it. His real wish was non-existence.]

[dhaosu]

[ What is he to say to something like that? He's never heard a human voice such a thing, and yet, here it is. Whatever his reasons, it was still surprising.

However, even though he racks his brain for something proper to say. Sometimes, well, there isn't. Not at this moment, at least. ]

Very well...farewell for now.

[ Ending that with a nod he makes his move to leave. ]

[okuri]

[ Oddly enough, Yoite can appreciate the silence and the plain goodbye. It was more familiar than extended conversations filled with nuances.

He nods in turn, and matches the farewell.]

Goodbye.
