[. . . hm. that's a thought. Akira stops in his tracks, a thoughtful hum escaping his lips]
The directors did say we tracked in residual effects from the places we were before. I thought they just meant the weekly annoyances, but could they mean memories of people, too?
A world so affected by our presence that it starts to resemble people and events from our memories. . . a world that rejects us so thoroughly we have to wear magic scrunchies to keep ourselves safe.

Ha ha. . .
[a pause]
. . . so what do you think?
no subject
[ at least he's not joking about dying ]
no subject
[just draws a humorless, breathless laugh out of Akira]
Yeah.
Mine can't, either.
no subject
[ gosh ]
Do you think this is their doing?
[ the team leaders ]
no subject
I don't know.
[. . .]
I really don't.
no subject
no subject
[or. . . is someone trying to mess with their heads?]
no subject
[ wow a straight answer ]
If it was, he would have made more of attempt to seem respectable.
no subject
I hope you're right.
This doesn't seem like something he'd do, does it?
no subject
[ it's cognitive akechi ]
no subject
He wouldn't, though he isn't against playing the long game, either.
But. . . he's still not the type to mass kidnap people and force them to murder each other.
no subject
Did you know that there was another Goro Akechi in the castle? If it were really him, you'd think the people from it would have recognized him.
no subject
Yeah. I knew. Belph told me.
[tilting his head to the side]
So why was the mansion crew the only ones who heard Akechi's voice?
no subject

no subject
[ so that's fun ]
no subject
[quietly, but loudly enough for Phoenix to hear]
. . . what is this place?
no subject
[ but it's only week 0 ]
no subject
[IT IS ONLY WEEK ZERO]
Phoenix. . . what do you think we should do?
no subject
... For now, that's all we can do.
no subject
After seven weeks of this bullshit, it doesn't feel like enough.
no subject
It's not. But we have to pace ourselves.
no subject
Slow and steady wins the race, right?
no subject
[ al let's do a new pc ]
no subject
[just]
[exhales again]
[ALSO YES SIPP LET'S]
I just have to be. . . patient.
