07 - the final week

[afflictionmods]

FINAL WEEK

You returned safely from the island, with fresh fruit and plenty of seafood, and your Saturday comes to an end. There was much less betrayal, much less turmoil, this past lesson… but does that mean you’ll have time to relax?

The fog has pulled back, revealing the rest of the university’s campus. ... Actually, the fog is completely gone. Interesting, that. You'll also notice that at night, there are no orbs to be found. It looks like Lorelei was true to her word regarding Saturday's activity being the final orb.

There are also, occasionally, other figures that come into view when you look around. Other figures that look like...people. People you haven't seen before, roaming the streets. Some of them look like they're seeing Estelline for the first time in a long while. Others look like they're exhausted and seem to be making their way towards the Residential Area, presumably to rest. There aren't many of them, come Sunday...but they're here.

The end is finally near – and Lorelei confirms that with another 8am announcement on Sunday. She is also, notably, wearing a more visible set of earrings.

"Good morning, students. I would like to formally congratulate you on surviving these last few weeks. This week should be your last, and I will be dedicating it to your evaluations. I'm aware that you know the nature of this "course" by now, but you will be able to return home soon. Regardless, I thank you for your participation.

You are free to contact me through the phone booth for the next few days. Thank you."

[ and as ace does this, sabo will meet his gaze with an all too telling smirk on his face. he knew what he did when he said the words that he said. now if ace would dare to ask him if he felt bad about it... well.

the look is probably all over his face of what he thinks of it all. ]

Maybe that was intentional.

[ though at ace's question and less him being cheeky about everything, he'll softly hum for a moment as he considers the his options. sleep is nice but being awake is important. he'll let his hand drop from ace's face and back onto the bed with a thump. ]

I haven't decided yet.

[ wow, how rude of him to do that kind of thing. but it's not really surprising with how they are with each other. teasing and toying with one another, that's just the way they are. and he'd do the same if the positions were reversed.

all he does about the planted image is grumble a bit before curling up more to sabo. it's nice and warm like this. he can't help it. ]

Yeah? Is it that hard of a choice?

[vivens]

[ exactly. and ace might not have been as generous as sabo is given how easy it is for him to just fall asleep in comparison. ...not that sabo can't pass out quickly himself which is definitely a thing that's becoming increasingly easier and more tempting as ace pulls him closer curls in. ]

It shouldn't be, but you're making it a very difficult choice.

[ sabo tiredly fakes a tone that would be akin to someone being offended except it comes off exceptionally poorly as he's not even bothering to try. though, more seriously, he murmurs the following words softly as he also soaks in the warmth. ]

This is the last week that we have here. After whatever ends up happening...who knows what will really end up happening.
