week zero, monday

[slobjection]

[ whenever akira is alone, phoenix nods at him and motions for him to follow. ]

Hard at work at our new tasks?

[survivaltricks]

[he's probably alone closer to the afternoon, after completing both the dancing and the world-sharing tasks]

Oh, you know me. Always a busy worker bee.

[two-fingered salute]

week zero, friday

[survivaltricks]

[idk where Phoenix is but almost immediately after the death announcement, Akira is GRABBING HIS SLEEVE]

Phoenix, come on. I need your help.

[???]

[slobjection]

[ phoenix is coming along but like... slowly ]

With what?

week 1, monday

[slobjection]

[ phoenix is in the portal, hanging around the game room in blues... when he sees akira, he waves ]

Blast from the past, isn't it?

[survivaltricks]

[AKIRA. . . DOES NOT WANT TO BE HERE. and yet, here he is, wandering the cold and dismal hallways of a place he had thought they had left behind]

[when he spots Phoenix in the game room, he comes to a stop, mouth quirking into a tired smile]

Not a memory I was excited to relive anytime soon.

week one, friday

[survivaltricks]

[Akira hadn't hovered when Phoenix, Magnus, Taako and Anaido had shown up in a seemingly dead pile that morning, but that was only because he a) was trying to give the group a bit of space because. . . all that blood. . .]

[and b) because Yu's death had hit him harder than the death from last week and he needed a bit of space to get his head on straight]

[but once he has composed himself, he goes searching for Phoenix by-- uh. moonwalking all throughout camp??? hm. where you at, hobodad]

[slobjection]

[ akira stop moonwalking people are dying ]

[ but okay no phoenix is near the laundry, sitting down with a bag of frozen peas pressed into his forehead and generally taking it easy. he's in jorts with no shirt for this reason, and if akira looks closely he can see a couple of nasty scars on both his forehead and back of his head. fun!! ]

[ he lifts one hand in a wave when he sees akira. come kick his ass ]

week 2, friday

[slobjection]

[ after schrodinger's dad carry and akira having been taken care of, phoenix pops in later to check on him..... with pudding. ]

Hmm..... to lecture, or not to lecture.

[survivaltricks]

[I'M GONNA SAY NICK CARRIED HIM B/C IT MAKES MY HEART WARM]

[he'll hang out in the infirmary for a bit to let Dick take care of his eye, so! once it's fully dressed though, he is going to head back to his cabin to change, and Nick happens to catch him just as he's getting up to do just that]

H-- hey. I didn't lecture you?

[QUID PRO QUO MAN]

week two, sunday

[survivaltricks]

[Akira was MIA on Saturday night, and no matter how hard someone may have searched for him he was nowhere to be found. but! he reappears for the execution on Sunday and stays reappeared. no more disappearing acts]

[he finds Phoenix in the kitchen, flashing him a wan smile as he immediately goes for the coffee machine]

. . . yo.

[slobjection]

[ finally this bitch shows his face ]

[ but no, you better believe phoenix was out looking for him yesterday. ]

The prodigal thief returns.

[ blease make coffee. ]

week 3, monday

[slobjection]

[ here they are in the kitchen!! phoenix is making sandwiches for the both of them, akira can handle the coffee. ]

Alright, then. Let's hear it.

[ straight to the chase! ]

[survivaltricks]

[STRAIGHT TO THE CHASE!! well. . . Akira did promise]

You're not even pretending to be coy?

[lightly amused]

week four, monday

[survivaltricks]

[the past weekend was. . . well. pretty shitty!! even if they did manage to find an actual killer this time, the emotional fallout of voting for Nie Huaisang took a toll on everyone. Beau especially. and if there's anyone else in the camp who is as close to Beau as Nie Huaisang was, it's. . .]

[. . . Akira finds him in the memorial hall, wrinkling his nose a bit as he steps inside, gaze flickering towards the flowers]

Phoenix?

[slobjection]

[ there's extra flowers for all the deceased... tulips, even!! huh, wonder how they got there. ]

[ phoenix is working at his grape juice bottle, and doesn't appear to have noticed akira until he speaks up. ]

[ then he glances up. ]

Evening.

week four, friday

[survivaltricks]

[this probably does not come as a surprise to Phoenix, but hey!! guess who is tap dancing everywhere!!]

[IT'S THIS GUY]

[it's extremely inappropriate for how he feels right now but WHATEVER, IT'S FINE, HE WILL DEAL WITH IT, where is Phoenix. time to look for him near the isolation cabin]

[slobjection]

[ phoenix seems like he's checking out the cabin, even though it's pointless..... while tap dancing ]

Can I ask you a question? Unrelated to this.

[ before they talk about murder. ]

week 4, saturday

[slobjection]

Hey. Can we talk?

[ phoenix seems... tired, but he's better than he was this week. ]

[survivaltricks]

[honestly Akira doesn't even have to say "yes," because he knows Phoenix already knows the answer is "yes" so]

[he just]

[hands him a mug of coffee]

week five, tuesday

[survivaltricks]

[so! on Tuesday, Akira-- who should be resting-- is making his way to Phoenix's cabin. once he gets there, he knocks on the door with one crutch before poking his head inside and nodding when he sees Phoenix]

Oh, there you are.

[and when he makes sure that Phoenix is alone??]

So. . .





Rainbow raindrops?

[nani the fuck]

[slobjection]

[ yeah phoenix is wrapped entirely in bandages like a freaking mummy for reasons akira surely remembers and is taking it easy. he gestures for akira to come sit on the bed next to him ]

Rainbow raindrops...? That in the forecast?

week 5, wednesday

[slobjection]

Did you find the person you were looking for?

[survivaltricks]

[HELLO TO YOU TOO, PHOENIX????]








Yes, I did.

week five, friday

[survivaltricks]

[sometime Friday afternoon there is a knock against Phoenix's cabin door!! knock knock, what's up doc]

[slobjection]

[ it's open... phoenix is just sitting on the bed, covered in many clothes???? for some reason??? he looks like ann in that stripping scene ]

Hey, Akira.

week five, saturday

[slobjection]

[ wherever akira is, phoenix will eventually hobble over. ]

Hey.

[survivaltricks]
