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.

[It's just one of those days where they dump everyone's stuff all over in hopes it'll be claimed, huh. Shin himself is holding a few things from his latest batch of items so he can leave them somewhere for people to take, which includes a certain hat and that sake cup he's had since like week 2. Someone please take it back.

Anyway!! He's learned to check out what people are offering as he passes by, but he hasn't had much luck with yard sales... until today, apparently. Because the moment he spies the semi-automatic, he pauses in front of their table and shifts a couple of the items around so he can pick up the pistol with his free hand and examine it.]

[iubar]

[ while shin is checking out the weapon, ace notices the hat and sake cup that he has in his arms. ]

My hat! [ but even with that comment, his eyes are fixed on that cup. could it be...? ]

[undertakings]

[Huh. Is this a two birds with one stone moment...? Maybe even three birds because he gets his gun back...?!]

They're yours?

[He doesn't miss the way Ace is eyeing that cup, so he'll place the gun back down for now so he can lay the hat and cup on the table without everything else spilling out of his arms. Did he do it. Did he find the owner.]

[iubar]

The cup is probably either mine or Sabo's...

[ but he leans from his position on the couch to snag the hat and plop it on his head, grinning. ]

The hat's great to have back, too. [ a beat. ] Take it the gun is yours?

[undertakings]

Yeah. I've been looking for it this whole time.

[Hence all the gacha-ing these past few weeks... it's been more than a month but at least it finally popped out. He takes the gun back in hand although this time takes the time to check the magazine well and chamber to make sure it's unloaded.]

Figures.

[iubar]

Maybe we'll get lucky and a place will open up with some ammo.

[ probably not, but one can still hope. ]

[undertakings]

[That would be pretty convenient, although...]

There aren't any targets to aim it at, so it would amount to the same thing regardless.

[aka a fancy paperweight, although that doesn't change that he's still glad to have it back.]

[iubar]

Let's hope it also remains that way.

[ not that he's against violence and things, he's a pirate after all, but it'd be easier if they can do things without it. especially without having powers. ]

[undertakings]

[There's something considering in his expression as Ace says that, and he cants his head just the slightest bit.]

...Do you think that'll be the case?

[Hoping and expecting are two very different things, after all. And given that they will, at some point, reach the end of this experiment...]
