3.0 - week three
WEEK THREE
Last night might have been exhausting for any number of reasons - maybe it was the emotional
toll of dealing with those ghosts, or maybe you stayed up too late after watching Jim Shrok. Who knows, but Saturday is over, even if some of you haven’t quite left it behind and half spirits that are still hanging on, tethered to you and weighing you down…
But that’s not going to stop a new week from starting. There’s no breaks in an eight week course.
There’s very little fanfare to the start of your third week of the course, though it does seem like the fog has lifted even more. It’s a bit more of a trek down the abandoned streets of Estelline, but surely a mile is walkable? Or you could grab a bike or try to hotwire one of those cars in the mall parking lot… Whatever you plan to do this week is up to you. All you know is you've got some new locations to explore.
As always, Florence and Lorelei are available.
SUNDAY MONDAY TUESDAY WEDNESDAY THURSDAY FRIDAY
TASK LIST
( OOC Note: Luci, Mutsu, and Mae will each receive a small roomba! Congrats on the successful egg drop. It's a tiny little friend that cleans extra well, though this also means its trash compartment is a little smaller so it'll need to be cleaned more often. )

I appreciate it. I was relieved when I couldn't feel it anymore.
[ Fai smiles a little. ]
But make sure I'm present next time so you don't fall asleep in there.
no subject
[ And he didn't want to walk all the way to where the karaoke bar was because he didn't want to be dragged into it once spotted.
He also definitely appreciates the praise, so his mood seems to be better. ]
no subject
[ He squeezes Hien's hand for emphasis. ]
How'd you manage to get in there with all of your clothes anyway?
no subject
I just... stepped into the full tub.
[ Yeah??? ]
no subject
[ And not... in a good way.
At least it's kind of cute??? ]
no subject
[ He's thinking that Fai thinks it's difficult for some reason. ]
no subject
[ Fai laughs. ]
I'm just impressed by your ability to get into the tub fully dressed like that and fall asleep.
[ He swings their hands. ]
You're so funny. I like that about you.
no subject
[ He frowns at Fai, but doesn't let go of his hand anyway. ]
I don't do it to be funny.
no subject
I’m not. I just think you can be endearing from time to time.
no subject
For Hien, it's okay to feel endeared to people because they're cute. But sometimes that word carries something heavy—his mood drops to absolute zero for a hot second before looking off to the side. ]
Endearing, huh? I'd rather not be, but if you say so.
[ He look up at the building. They finally arrived! ]
no subject
Did I say the wrong thing again?
[ Just like during his possession. ]
no subject
[ He leads Fai, but then he sees a clothes store. Hm. ]
When someone tells me that I'm endearing, I can't help but to think other things. I was told that I was endearing while I was squirming and groveling on the ground, supposedly.
[ Anyway. ]
Let's go over there. I want more black clothes.
no subject
What do you like to be told?
[ He’ll follow Hien easily, absentmindedly thinking that Hien would look nice in some other colors. ]
no subject
You think I'm just gonna tell you what I like being told so that you can say it whenever?
[ He seemed a little better wheh he was praised, at least. ]
no subject
[ Of course he’s going to say it whenever!! ]
no subject
[ That's why he doesn't want it done whenever. With that, he goes to look at the t-shirts. We doesn't want designs on them and seems to be looking at more neutral colors. ]
no subject
Instead, Fai follows him over to the t-shirts. ]
I think you’d look nice in some actual color. It doesn’t have to be bright either.
no subject
To that, Hien plucks a gray shirt. ]
Color.
[ No. ]
no subject
Color.
no subject
[ Normally he'd just say something to deny Fai's suggestion, but it really seems that he doesn't like green... ]
no subject
I don’t think I’ve ever heard you say you dislike something.
no subject
[ If he says it like that, does it sound normal...? He keeps the gray t-shirt close to himself, but looks at the one Fai is holding out. ]
Is there a darker one...
no subject
No, because it’ll be too close to what you already wear.
[ He hums thoughtfully. Ah! He’s got it. ]
If you try it on, I’ll try on whatever you pick out for me.
no subject
[ His eyes wander around before he can say anything and he sees something he'd like Fai to wear.
Hm. ]
Okay.
[ That was fast. Hien reaches out for the shirt Fai picked. ]
no subject
Your sudden motivation worries me a little.
[ But he hands over the shirt anyway. ]
Can I grab some pants for you?
