week 8

[vicedirector]

seven vices week 8 21 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 boathouse and lake up North Anyone looking for them will also find that Alisha's spear and Sadie's earmuffs are now gone. >Mingle?

[Faize is trying his best to free his Dangerous Hand. So help him, Hinata, he will smack you with this stick until you get off of him. If that's what it's going to take. Thanks for letting him breathe though, he appreciates that much. He makes an indignant noise.]

You cheated is what you did. The whole point of this was for you to learn to use a sword. If you're just going to toss it aside at the last minute, what was the point?

[No he can't have that hand!! At least Hinata's being careful not to damage Alisha's flower-thing. He might be a bit of a brat right now, but he's not an asshole.]

I am learning! But I definitely think I can't beat you in a spar yet.

[Or... ever, really. If nothing else, he's quickly learned this week that SHSL Swordsman, he is not.]

So... I had to improvise.

[Thank you, Hinata. For not being as big an asshole as you could be. Crush his bones all you want, but you leave that flower alone.]

[Faize sighs.]

You could have simply asked to stop, you know. Tackling me was unnecessary, I assure you.

[hopefragment]

Maybe, but...

[He just shifts his weight a little more comfortably, still keeping his hands pinned as he grins.]

You weren't expecting this, right?

[Maybe be impressed with his unpredictability! Or something.]

[symbologic]

Heh...no, I certainly did not see this coming. You are correct about that much.

[Okay, maybe he is a little impressed. Just a little.]

How long do you intend to keep me pinned down like this?
