week zero, tuesday.

[squelching]

[they are at (throws dart) the university library! for some reason. saya is going through the research materials, frowning.]

There's not a lot about the city...

[unsync]

[ We love being n*rds! ]

Oh! Saya, hi. I didn't expect to see you here.

[ This is not a read on her, he would be surprised to run into anyone. ]

You're trying to read up on Oceanside?

[squelching]

[ryuki is just out there surprised to exist... i see...

she nods, glancing at him for a second before scooting over a little so he can look at the research materials with her. most of it is just about the weather.]

It's weird. I thought I could find out more about Oceanside's history, or the fight that happened before we were brought here, but...

[unsync]

[ Sometimes you just forget to exist is all. He will politely scooch closer so he can peer at the papers. ]

But... you can't find any? Do you think they're considered something like classified material that we need to get special archive access for?

[squelching]

I don't know. But why would basic information like that be classified? [it's history??? she hums.] I wonder if we could get away with sitting in on a university lesson...

wk1, monday;

[unsync]

[ He gives her a tiny little wave when he sees her. ]

Hi, Saya. [ She is in the -chan squad even if I don't write it out. ] Um... are you okay? After everything that happened...

[squelching]

[the -chan is here in spirit...

she smiles a little, nodding.]

I'm okay. I don't like the new rules, though...

[unsync]

I don't either. I'm just hoping nobody takes it to heart this week. We can't let them get what they want because of a few threats.

[squelching]

Mhmm, right. I doubt they'll let us spend the rest of the week quietly, though, without arranging another accident.

[unsync]

But why... we haven't done anything, so why...

wk3, tuesday;

[unsync]

[ Well when he sees Saya, he's just going to pass her a little stuffed animal. It's either a snail, cat, or shark, she has free pick on which one she'd like.

Alphinaud can have one too I guess. Going to come back to this TL at endgame and be like why is Alphinaud here. ]

Want one?

[squelching]

Oh! Where are they from?

[CUTE... she's just going to make grabby hands for the shark in honor of her gone but not forgotten shark friend. maybe she'll even name it alphinaud for reasons she cannot comprehend. we are going to be so confused at unlocks.]

[unsync]

Our dorm. We have a lot of fun to go around, can't be keeping it to ourselves.

[ Hands her her shark beanie baby!! Our blahaj returns. ]

I promise it's not a prank or anything.

[squelching]

[BEANIE BABY...]

I'm a little jealous. The only thing we have in our dorm are cars and newspapers.

[unsync]

I heard White Tiger's dorm is nothing but just... white?

[ But his source is Hanako regarding that so like. ]

We have a ball pit.

wk3, pre-curfew;

[unsync]

[ Before we part are separate ways into our sleep zones... ]

Oh, good. Hanako and Rita made it back too.

[ Ghostlike or not. Well, he's solid by now, don't know about the other two but presumably. ]

[squelching]

In a sense...

[






she pokes him on the arm.]

[unsync]

[ He's poked. She feels his nice sweater, and solid underneath. ]

What is it?

[squelching]

Just checking if you were solid again.

[unsync]

Oh, um. It looks like I am, I'm not falling through the floor anymore...

[ Wow, was that what it feels like to be in a Somnium or something? ]

I'm okay. Sorry for worrying you.

wk5, tuesday;

[unsync]

[ I feel like with how his life is going he actually would not be out and about wandering right now but you know what. F*ck it. I want my cr in cute places so he's out here at the zoo.

He is wearing a mask though. Like, the cloth mouth mask, not a full-face one. ]

Wow, a zoo! Mouse and I talked about going to one when we first got here if it ever opened up...

[squelching]

[looks at the time of this thread

all the zoo animals are skeletons which, actually, makes this 100% funnier..]

Yeah? You should bring them here. I think they'd like it... even without the real animals. [maybe? just the novelty of it.

she pauses to stare at him, though.]

Is something wrong with your face?

[BLUNTLY...]

[unsync]

[ Kids these days are all so blunt.

Also listen. Waking up to those zoo location changes was a lot. Me looking at my zoo plans like uh oh. Anyway, he sees what she means as he looks properly into one of the enclosures and just sees a skeleton. ]

We didn't even have the place open for two days...

[squelching]

[HELP. you are so valid.

saya just laughs in his face after reading the thought bubble. no shame over here. man.

she peers into the enclosure as well, still giggling.]

You gotta admit, it's a little funny.

[unsync]

[ He sighs as he stares into the enclosure... and at least, he tries to imagine if this was done on purpose by the city and not by some rogue hero. As a little Halloween thing, since Spirit Halloween is open now. ]

I guess it's a little funny... kind of like a dinosaur museum.
