week 7

[vicedirector]

seven vices week 7 24 players remaining ♫ 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 Katerina's 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. After hearing the motive, characters who choose to explore will find that the void around the town has retracted a bit, and there is now a park and playground next to the clinic. >Mingle? This is Week 7's mingle log, covering Monday/Tuesday/Wednesday/Thursday. Investigations will go up on Friday. When posting toplevels, specify the time and location. If you plan on having any private conversations between characters, remember to let us know in the post linked below. More plot elements will be introduced this week. Mod comments will be occasionally distributed to open toplevels, accordingly. cast setting rulebook profiles private conversations

[ Break is at least getting used to this song and dance, because once he has his envelope, he opens it up while someone is nearby. In fact, you're probably the one that passed him the envelope, if we're honest. This motive doesn't sound too bad to him, so he just opens it up with a sigh.

Inside, there's a picture of... Gilbert? Or, no, wait, that person barely in the picture because they're getting literally kicked out of it is definitely Break. If not by the clothes, you can tell by the white hair. Yet oddly, there's a scrawled note underneath: Kevin Regnard and Gilbert Nightray. Just who the hell is Kevin?

Break is of course oblivious to the utter mortification that comes with this image, so he just waves it lightly towards the very helpful person nearby. ]

Ahh, this is discriminatory, you know... It'd be easier to just tell me what my motive is meant to be~. So! What is it this week~?

[aumygoddess]

[ ............ ]

It looks like Nightray-san kicking someone.

[ a beat ]

Who is "Kevin Regnard"?

[crazily]

[ Gilbert kicking someone? There's a look of confusion for a moment, since it doesn't quite bring the correct incident to mind for Break. However, with her second question...

Break's lips purse into a very thin line It could be over the name, or it could be the realization of just what the picture actually is. Or there's the reality, which is that it's a little of both. The realization of what's being portrayed here does spark embarrassment quite immediately, but the anger he feels at having the name revealed tempers it. Somewhat.

Enough for him to just straight up lie. ]

...Hmmmm~? I have no idea!

[aumygoddess]

Well, that is what the picture says. "Kevin Regnard and Gilbert Nightray"...and Nightray-san kicking someone with white hair.

[ she. supposes it maybe is Break but hasn't really spent enough time around him to make the connection ]

[crazily]

...Oh? How interesting!

[ Break laughs, then waves his hand at Hanyuu. ]

You know, it must be one of those pesky Baskervilles. I don't always get their names... But one of them has a Chain that allows them to change their face! His name must have been Kevin, I suppose...? It is pretty embarrassing that he would be wearing my face! I assume that's what it is, at least. ♥

[stupidly]

—You might want to put that away.

[He's a helpful person who's being extra helpful right now, even! Because he could totally use this as a chance at sweet, sweet revenge, but no. He'll be courteous...]

[crazily]

[ Break wants to believe he's shameless enough that this motive won't affect him, and yet. When Gilbert says that, he stops waving around the photo, then pauses to look Gilbert's way. ]

...What is it?

[ Because if Gilbert says it that politely, it must be bad. ]

[stupidly]

...Do you remember your fight with Doug and Lily?

[Which was just an embarrassment for Break from start to finish, he's sure, but especially this part right here that's forever immortalized.]

[crazily]

...Yes.

[ But that "yes" is said with a twinge of dread in his voice. There were indeed several things that were more embarrassing about that fight, but most of them centered around the fact that Gilbert was cooler than he was. SURELY THAT'S NOT WHAT THIS COULD BE... right... ]

[stupidly]

...That's what this is a picture of. Er - it was about the same time I found you.

["About". More like "definitely".]

[detanimetion]

[Undyne is here to be Helpful and as tactful as possible about poor blind Break who can't see what he's waving around!]

It's a picture of Gilbert kicking your ass! Literally kicking your ass.

...wow, that is super embarrassing. Good thing you're showing it off in public right away, otherwise you'd probably wind up being suspected of murder again!

[crazily]

[ undyne why you gotta hit betray ]

...That never happened. Gilbert definitely wouldn't be able to beat me.

[ Technically true, but Gilbert wasn't trying to beat Break either. Break knows exactly what moment has been memorialized here, but he's also firmly in denial. Gilbert isn't cooler than him. ]

[sobowtor]

[Must be a lover's spat.]

That's not so bad.

[crazily]

Of course it wouldn't be~!

[ With a wave of his hand, it disappears, though that's just one of his sleight of hand magic tricks at work. ]

I've lived a very pure and virtuous life, you know. I don't have anything embarrassing at all to my name. ♥

[sobowtor]

[... Break teach her how to do stuff like that.]

Hey if you show it to everyone right now, then there's no reason to even be tempted by murdering people.
