week 3, post-trial

[sengokus]

[wow! all of that happened! mineo looks like he's - well, he's having an existential crisis like he does every saturday! but this one looks smaller? so he's not carrying this horrible dread with him

but he is in the kitchen and he's making some tea. when he turns at the sound of someone approaching, he tilts his head]

Ah - want a cup, Molly? It's just some tea.

[headmt]

Oh, sure--

[Honestly Molly doesn't seem all that fucked up this week. What a day!]

This stuff goes through me crazy fast though.

[dont talk about peeing,]

[sengokus]

[ . . . he snorts a little bit at that.]

I won't be offended if you need to suddenly run off.

[two cups of tea it is.

he's feeling good enough this week to crack a grin at least]

But I think I do owe you and Harrow-san whatever you want, after all the work you did.

[headmt]

I like gold or silver.

[gesturing to his jewelry? he's got a mix of both dangled over his horns and pierced through his ears. his septum and lip are gold though. so.]

Actually don't normally do this sort of stuff without any reward at the end.

[sengokus]

[he looks thoughtful]

Hmm.... I'll see what I can get from the Avatars maybe....? I don't know what I can get that'd make you look any better, though.

[he's too sincere]

Well, you deserve it! You did good work.

[headmt]

Praised for my looks and my genius? All in one day? I'm not sure I can handle all of this at once.

[he absolutely seems like he can handle all of this at once.]

Seems you caught onto the other one quickly too. I really do think the solution was just simpler than we thought.

[sengokus]

[he nods...]

I think so too.... I'm gonna try to solve the mystery of Aoi-san and Shi-san anyway, just in case -

But... it'd be pretty convenient, if we managed to piece it all together.

[headmt]

Yes that was a fucking weird one-- Not a power that we'd heard of, and not one of the Avatar ones I've heard of either. Seems like it'd be . . . a Wrath one, maybe?

[sengokus]

Probably....

[and he tilts his head]

Actually - can I ask about the details of the glasses you got? Were those from an Avatar...?

[headmt]

The glasses . . . ?

[The sunglasses? They're currently pushed up on his head, because. he's forgotten about them.]

[sengokus]

[he just

points at them]

Those!

[headmt]

[reaching up to his head?

holding his horns? confused?

and then-- remembering the glasses-!!]

Oh! These. No, they aren't-- They're just Harrow's. Like how I got Frumpkin the other week. I should give them back actually, they belong to someone she knows as well. Like Frumpkin.

[sengokus]

[oh - he blinks a bit at that before snorting]

So they were just for the drama? I guess I shouldn't be surprised. It was pretty effective!

[headmt]

Yes! You always need a good reveal for the trick.

[at this point he does take the glasses off and offer them over to Mineo to look at them if he wants. They're just a pair of aviators.]

Nothing we did was Avatar-aided, unless you count the tattoo ink. And I was given that weeks ago as a diversion for myself.

If you want to speak of Avatar powers, I got one last week. Sloth kissed me and I woke up with the power to see where a piece of evidence was. I used it to find that damned shovel.

[sengokus]

... why did everyone get useful ones? I just have one that makes two people fall in love with each other for two days - or, well, I guess it's one-sided. It's complicated.

[who gave mineo love arrows when he's got too many morals to use them sensibly hello]

I want a helpful one!

But ah - wait, Molly, you got an item from the adventure this past week, right? Or I'll guess that you did... Ashiya-san gave me his, if your group was wondering where it went.

[headmt]

Oh. The arrows? Yes, they're hard to use. Everyone whines about it.

[don't say it like that. Anyway, Molly tilts his head to the side at that though, because, uh. They'd been separated at first and hadn't really had time to discuss any . . . items gained.]

I got a pink and blue jacket, that I believe is Lust's. What did Douman give you? I didn't see that he had anything beyond the gun that he fucking shot at us.

[sengokus]

[he's just whining]

My expiration date for them is coming up so I'm gonna try to get something more useful soon....

[SOMEONE USE LOVE ARROWS I'M SO SAD. but mineo blinks at that]

Oh.... It was a red rose - so I gotta figure out where it's going. I thought it was Lust-san's but if you're saying yours is.... [hmmmm] Gojou-san got one too, and I'm gonna guess that Grace-san got one...?

[headmt]

[Instant recognition at the rose:]

Ah-- Pride's. The rose.

[He looks a little concerned for a second, tapping a finger on his chin.]

They'll really want that back. I think that one's important. Be careful with it, alright?

[sengokus]

[his brow raises at that before nodding]

... Yeah. Ashiya-san accidentally crushed it a little, just so you know in case I get my ass kicked - but I've been trying to take care of it. I'll get it back right away then.

Uh, Gojou-san has... a pocket watch? Do you know where that goes? I can tell him or you can beat me to it if you talk about it....

[headmt]

[molly hadn't seen the events so he can't laugh but I will at both "accidentally" and "a little." He just looks a little concerned. Pride's rose ... ]

Ah, pocket watch? No, no idea. I can talk to him about it. Maybe seems like the sort of fancy thing Gluttony would like.

[sengokus]

[MINEO GOT SUCH A SKEWED VERSION OF EVENTS FROM THE CLOWN AT ALL TIMES]

Ah... Maybe. Well, we can see what it's about... I still don't know why the Avatar's stuff would show up in your adventure.

I need to talk to them more.... Do you have any ideas about it, Molly?

[headmt]

Mm, not really. Was planning to talk to Lust about it when I returned the jacket.

[But he reaches up to scratch his neck, over the tattoo.]

Though-- This place. Each floor is a reflection of one of them, correct? So maybe the illusions we go to are similar.

[sengokus]

[he looks thoughtful about that - ]

Not... every room, I don't think. It's just a guess but... I think each floor has one room that's about the space station, and not the Avatar. Some people have been going around looking - uh, myself included - to try to see what we can get.

It's mostly just weird sci-fi and dangerous stuff...

[headmt]

I got a cupcake a few weeks back. [...] And some memories, but. You know.

[WHAT. anyway,]

No not every room, but certainly enough of them to have a theme.

[sengokus]

[what.]

... was it a good cupcake...?

[this is not relevant]

But ah - yeah, I agree. I think that every week the Avatar that's our host is just on their own floor. I don't... really know what that means...

Oh! But - have you asked about Beauregard-san? [he looks a little uncertain whether he wants to broach this topic with molly just in case but] I mean - I did. About... the people who're gone and stuff. Whether we can bring them back.
