WEEK FIVE

Come Sunday morning, the portals around Estelline fade away, but not all of the oddities hanging around disappear so quickly. The recreations of your dreams and memories are still around, ever changing and shifting. Whatever it is that brought these things here hasn’t ended, not yet.

You don’t have time to worry about all of that, though, even if you know you should exercise caution once two of you found yourselves on the bad end of a monster’s claws. The course still isn’t over, though, even if the portals changed lesson plans. Everything continues on, with new places to explore as the fog pushes back once again. This week still feels a little more like what you’re familiar with, though, after Saturday’s lack of lessons.

...For now.

I figure they'll turn him loose and he can do what he wants. I am not sticking around to find out. Rule one of espionage: when it gets dicey, you get out.

[imitationsoul]

[ Interrupting this little doom chat because she wants her soda.... ]

He's a native here. We're likely just seeing a manifestation of his emotions.

.... I suppose despair might still cause lightning though.

[festiverogue]

Be that as it may, Shizuku would kill me with big, sad looks if I got struck by lightning, so I'm not sticking around to find out how bad this gets.

[ignihidden]

[Here, Miach, have the worst thing he could find (affectionate).]

... eh, he was assaulted and tied up and it took this long for a reaction...?

[imitationsoul]

We've never seen it in action, so this might be a usual amount of delay...?

[ Unsure but also distracted by the Ultimate Drink. She's loving it?? ]

This looks horrifying. I knew I could count on you!

[ignihidden]

[Idia takes out his tablet and starts a stopwatch function.]

... if it's delayed starting maybe it's delayed stopping, too?

[He'll at least try and get Some Data even if he can't use it remotely. That's the administrative data collection way, after all! While it starts to tick off seconds, he can go back to looking, like, ridiculously pleased that Miach likes the awful drink. He did that! Him!!]

This one is pleased to serve, fueheehee~ [again, like, guy tied up over there? the guy in a panic? guys? guys??]

[imitationsoul]

[ Who cares about that guy, there are more important matters at hand!! Though Miach does nod approvingly at the timer being set here, too. ]

My taste buds have adjusted a good bit in the past few weeks - this will either prove their growth or destroy them for good. What a thrill to find out which.

[ Idia is kind of becoming her unhealthy lifestyle advisor here...

Time to actually give the cursed Faygo a try though! One sip later, the face she makes is somewhere between 'bit into a lemon' and 'boundless fascination'. ]

This is... simultaneously the worst thing I have ever tasted and it makes me crave more. Truly makes me understand how tobacco addictions might have started.

[ Yeah, she's drinking more of it. ]

[ignihidden]

[Idia's palate is so blown out from sweet on top of sweet and he gladly welcomes another tasteless warrior to the fray. Besides, foodies were pretentious! Well, maybe he'd like their content more if they described things like Miach did, roleplaying from a future apocalypse and analyzing modern day snack food.]

It's caffeine-free... so that's one fewer addictive substance... it couldn't be the perfect drink, sadly.

[If it was, it truly might send someone to the fifth dimension at 3am.]
