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. )

One good ride is more than enough!

[ Well, it's something, at least. ]

Say, Madara, if there's anything other than a helmet you want me to keep an eye out for, I'd be more than happy to do so.
festiverogue: (laughing is good for you)

[personal profile] festiverogue 2022-06-16 04:32 am (UTC)(link)
[A laugh.]

Oh, you're done already? Too thrilling for you? That's noooo fun!!!

[But he pauses, looking out at everything, the dead cars, the creepy mall with its unfolded secrets...]

I don't know. It's hard to say, when you're an idol. Like, what really matters, other than the job? [He smiles again.] But if you see any idol costumes for a biiig guy like me, they're probably mine. I wouldn't mind having them back. I want to show Shizuku and Riku.

[personal profile] partymagician 2022-06-16 01:47 pm (UTC)(link)
I’ll keep an eye out for them, in that case.

[ But what Madara said makes him think. ]

Surely you have other important things in your life?
festiverogue: (come with me)

[personal profile] festiverogue 2022-06-16 06:39 pm (UTC)(link)
[And that in turn makes Madara think.]

...Nooot really? I'm an idol. We're pretty much the types to live for our work. And you definitely saw my profile. My other work doesn't give me a loooot to get attached to.

[Everything else can be replaced. Precious memories are enough sometimes.]

Unless you mean something else.

[ Fai shakes his head. ]

No, I was wondering if you had other hobbies or anything like that. Idol work sounds tough.

[ He still isn’t totally sure what all it entails, but… he at least knows that much now. ]
festiverogue: (black ships black flag)

[personal profile] festiverogue 2022-06-16 09:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Ohh, hobbies? Just Baby-chan and festivals! But a festival isn't very portable, so I doubt anything would show up here. Idol work is idol work; it's what makes my world go 'round!

[His expression is soft.]

You're a nice guy. I mean, I knew that, but you keep proving it. I'm gonna worry about you.

[ Fai appreciates it, but he's honestly worried hearing that from someone who's like a kid to him. ]

Really? I promise you, I'll be fine. If anything, I should be worried about you.
festiverogue: (he's got a gun just sayin)

[personal profile] festiverogue 2022-06-17 02:03 am (UTC)(link)
Why's that? Is it because I'm riding a motorcycle without a helmet?

[Wink.]
partymagician: (64)

[personal profile] partymagician 2022-06-17 02:06 am (UTC)(link)
[ That makes him laugh. ]

Well, that and the fact that you're still pretty young.
festiverogue: (pure joy)

[personal profile] festiverogue 2022-06-17 02:14 am (UTC)(link)
I sure am.

[He feels older than he is in certain ways, but in other ways he's dead set on staying young forever. He has a feeling he'll burn fast and bright, like too many other idols... But he's always been like that.]

Don't worry about me. Worry about guys who deserve it!
partymagician: (35)

[personal profile] partymagician 2022-06-17 02:19 am (UTC)(link)
[ Fai smiles at him. ]

Then in that case, I could say the same thing to you. Worry about the guys who deserve it.

[ But he knows Madara won't accept that, since he already thinks of Fai as a kind person. ]
festiverogue: (festivals are the best obv)

[personal profile] festiverogue 2022-06-17 02:20 am (UTC)(link)
[That makes Madara laugh.]

This place is going to make us have a why-I-don't-deserve-good-things showdown.
partymagician: (56)

[personal profile] partymagician 2022-06-17 02:37 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe so. I wonder if that's a hint for us to get off of that mindset.

[ Fai isn't sure he can do that himself, but if he can help others... ]
festiverogue: (first impressions)

[personal profile] festiverogue 2022-06-17 07:24 pm (UTC)(link)
That'd be waaaay too easy!

[A grin.]

But maybe just for today, I'll think about the good things. Liiike festivals! Think we have time to throw one here?
partymagician: (92)

[personal profile] partymagician 2022-06-17 10:49 pm (UTC)(link)
We might! It would be a lot of effort and planning, but... it could be fun.

[ He thinks it'd be worth it. ]
festiverogue: (black ships black flag)

[personal profile] festiverogue 2022-06-18 05:01 am (UTC)(link)
I think it could take the edge off! Just something to think about.

[Madara revs the motorcycle a bit.]

Ready to go back?
partymagician: (62)

[personal profile] partymagician 2022-06-18 02:46 pm (UTC)(link)
I am! Let's head back.

[ But he will keep the idea for a festival in mind. Perhaps in a week or two, they could pull something like that off... ]
