Week 6: Friday

[What's up, no-sleep squad. For once in his life Val is in his house, prinny sitting like a guard next to the couch.

His Oracle Bell is in his hands, and if either of them ask for it, they can see the messages it contains.]


Considering the pace we're losing people, we should discuss what we know so far.

Tsurumaru sent that a way to clear the corruption is killing everyone and making certain the last person alive isn't corrupted. I'm aware Akane, Namine, and Ookurikara know. Namine said it's likely Lea knows. At this point quite a few people could know, but aren't sharing.

It's doubtful that a total player kill is the only way to clear the source of the Corruption.

The deceased are purifying the Corruption where they are. As they clear it, they receive more information. Last week, they didn't manage to clear the corruption. Any new information will likely arrive on Monday.

Did either of you receive new messages today?

[personal profile] tothemaxwell 2019-07-20 10:42 am (UTC)(link)
No. [does she sound miffed by that? it's your imagination.]

Julius also knows.

[There's a long pause before Val nods.]

Yes, Akane said she told him.

What did the message say?
tothemaxwell: (bad news)

[personal profile] tothemaxwell 2019-07-21 01:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Are we all on the same page, then?--Oh!

[She smacks her fist into her open palm, suddenly remembering.]

Valvatorez, I don't believe I've told you, but I carry the responsibility of a role.

[personal profile] omegathree 2019-07-21 02:06 pm (UTC)(link)
It seems we are. [Like they tend to be.] It's just a matter of if we want to talk to more people about it, or to discuss it with people who are already aware.

I had no idea. Which one is it?
tothemaxwell: (she's a bomb)

[personal profile] tothemaxwell 2019-07-22 08:47 am (UTC)(link)
[she smiles at Shess, the one person she would've been okay explaining that in her stead.]

I am the Crescent. Every week, I pick one person to defend against corruption. If that person is picked, then I will die in their stead.
omegathree: (11)

[personal profile] omegathree 2019-07-22 04:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Hm... I see. Somehow that seems to fit you.

[It clearly hasn't taken though. Milla is right there.]
tothemaxwell: (she's an atom bomb)

[personal profile] tothemaxwell 2019-07-23 10:12 am (UTC)(link)
Ha ha ha. Flattery will get neither of you anywhere.

[So says Milla, who is clearly extremely flattered by the comments. Her cheeks flush pink with the praise, despite her words.]

Although I have not yet been asked to fulfill my role, as my protective targets have not hit, Sol remarked that I am also able to assist while I am still alive, as well—so in either case, I am able to help those around me. It really is a win-win situation for me, to be able to do my best to protect those around me wherever I am able.
omegathree: (06)

[personal profile] omegathree 2019-07-23 10:51 am (UTC)(link)
Flattery would be excessive and insincere. It's hardly flattery when we're sincere.

I trust in your judgement, whoever it is you're protecting each week.

You've assisted for as long as we've been here. I'm grateful to call you both my comrades. Allow me to assist you whenever you require it.
tothemaxwell: (she's a bomb)

[personal profile] tothemaxwell 2019-07-23 12:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Thank you, Valvatorez. As Shess says, I feel much the same about both of you.

It is fortunate we found each other so soon—I have greatly appreciated having the two of you to speak to. You both feel like stabilizing elements.
omegathree: (19)

[personal profile] omegathree 2019-07-23 01:09 pm (UTC)(link)
It's difficult to imagine what being here would be like without either of you. I look forward to the times we speak together, as a group or one-on-one.
tothemaxwell: (bad news)

[personal profile] tothemaxwell 2019-07-24 09:47 am (UTC)(link)
Our meetings do feel a bit like an oasis, don't they? [morality! suspended! blame! not cast!] I hope we are all able to proceed as far as possible, and assist those around us as best we are able.

Speaking of which, what do you both think of the current conditions for this place, and the core?

omegathree: (39)

[personal profile] omegathree 2019-07-24 04:09 pm (UTC)(link)
That's my wish as well.

I don't like the conditions we have, and I don't trust we have enough information yet. However, if it's what must be done, then... fine. I'll do whatever I must to end this.
tothemaxwell: (and ready to drop)

[personal profile] tothemaxwell 2019-07-25 08:54 am (UTC)(link)
My thoughts precisely.

And who do you think, each of you, if it comes down to that, should be the final individual standing?
omegathree: (11)

[personal profile] omegathree 2019-07-25 01:37 pm (UTC)(link)
I would be fine with anyone in this room, as well as Namine.
tothemaxwell: (bad news)

[personal profile] tothemaxwell 2019-07-25 02:29 pm (UTC)(link)
[she beams.]

Excellent. Although I don't know well Namine well enough to comment on that, I do agree with Ookurikara—and either of you, of course. It is an extremely short list, isn't it? [somewhat worrying. anyway.]

I will do what I can to stay alive—but in the end, my duty will ultimately come first. Should I fall before either of you, I will leave it in your hands.
omegathree: (11)

[personal profile] omegathree 2019-07-25 02:42 pm (UTC)(link)
She works hard and does what she can for the people around her. I feel she has a strong moral compass. I don't know Ookurikara as well as either of you, but I trust your judgement.

... This is a shorter list than I was imagining.
