06 - week six

WEEK SIX

Sunday starts with more aches and pains than you might be used to. Florence patched people up after Saturday’s lesson, sure, but it’s not a complete cure - not to mention it doesn’t ease the sting of betrayal. Some classmates that you thought would cooperate wound up breaking your trust in the end, and this week will be interesting with the fallout.

It’s hard to say what this week will have in store otherwise. Things are changing, and it’s not clear what this means for all of you. On the bright side, however, the creatures and places you once knew from home have suddenly disappeared, so that's less that you need to worry about. There are new areas for you to look at as well.

Hmm, I bet. I bet they teach you how to do it in hell.

[And yet she knows he didn't seem too jazzed about it in the last game, even if he didn't actively speak up to stop them.]

But it sounds like you aren't lovin' it this time?

[totalcatastrophe]

Oh, yeah. You can't trust anyone in Hell. We get rewarded for being jerks down there.

[ Luci explains happily enough, but it's followed by the silence that her prodding produces. He doesn't bother holding back how torn he is, but still grumbles about it. ]

This pain sharing thing is a real pain in the ass.

[totaltrashfire]

...Yeah. I guess it's weird that they tied us together like this.

[She fiddles with the sheets. She feels like she should probably apologize for how often she gets hurt, given the circumstances, but she doesn't.]

I guess that's what they want, though. To encourage bonding? Or something.

[totalcatastrophe]

[ He groans, soft but annoyed, into his own sheets crumpled in front of him from all of his earlier shifting. ]

Yeah well, I'm not great at this whole bonding thing.

[ Luci even says the word bonding like he detests it. But still, it's just the two of them. ]

... Wanna know a secret?

[totaltrashfire]

[She doesn't know if she believes that, but she doesn't argue with him about it. Instead, she nods, leaning forward a little, if they're being all conspiratorial.]

Yeah.

[Hit her with it.]

[totalcatastrophe]

[ Luci looks around, as if there is someone watching them. There probably is. Anyway, he shifts again to lean in like it is Really Serious. It's his darkest of secrets.

As quietly as Luci can whisper it into her ear, he sounds pained to admit-- ]

I'm actually nice.

[totaltrashfire]

[...

...

...

...oh wait she should say something.]

Oh wow, really?

[She's trying to sound genuinely surprised but she isn't a good actress.]
