w0, sunday.

[ Guess who's hanging out at the theater, sitting up on stage with his legs hanging off the edge. He's flipping through one of those books left out for them, eyebrows furrowed as he reads, then rereads the information provided to them.

It's only when he hears someone entering the theater that he looks up, and his expression smooths out as he returns to his usual smile. ]

Fancy meeting you here.

[ You know, with their very limited locations to traverse. ]

[haematocritical]

[ fancy running into someone in the 400 square feet of space they have to work with. ]

Well there's an above average chance I was going to run into someone wherever I went. Enjoying your light reading?

[ fuck that book, honestly. ]

[tactic]

Familiarizing myself with its contents. Not that there's too much to it.

[ Glances back down at the book before closing it shut. ]

Would you like to take a look? Or have you already?

[haematocritical]

Have already.

I’m not sure it’s worth rereads: poor plot, terrible plot twists. No pacing.

[tactic]

You aren't interested in these so-called "upgrades" to your power?

w0, tuesday.

[tactic]

[ KICKS DOWN THE MORTUARY DOOR and by that, I mean Aventurine strolls inside. ]

Can I see your nest?

[haematocritical]

My what.

[ help me ]

[tactic]

Your nest. The one you made in the big coffin.

[ Bro, your castmates LOVE yapping. ]

[haematocritical]

[ they sure do ]

I did not make a nest in a coffin thank you very much!

w5, saturday

[haematocritical]

[ i won't be replying until later so we can do nebulous pre or post trial and add in details as we learn them i guess?


anyway hello. he's dead now. tell him about your torrid affair with nehan and your penthouse love nest. ]

[tactic]

[ I'LL KILL YOU FOR THIS ]

[haematocritical]

[ stop gale will be even sadder ]

[tactic]

[ finally returns like oh god... it's post-trial late at night

They're at the jazz bar because it's been one of those days and they've got a lot to catch up on. Aventurine is in desperate need of a distraction, and he tilts his glass to stare at his drink for a moment before taking a big gulp of something way too strong. ]

You and Gale, huh?

[ yaois you first ]

w6, wednesday

[haematocritical]

[ you said something about a new gossip pc and i’m making you pc me tag me

[tactic]

[ you fool this was a trap ]

Glad that you're getting to see Gale so soon?

[haematocritical]

Yes? I imagine Karlach even more effervescent over the situation though.

[ fight me ]

[tactic]

You're very good at trying to push the attention away from yourself.

w7, thursday.

[tactic]

[ Wherever Astarion is at the moment, Aventurine is dropping in next to him and peering at his face. ]

... It didn't get you yesterday, did it?

[ Pyramid Head or whatever it's called. ]

[haematocritical]

[ i'm contacting my work and telling them i have to work est times so i can live on est time. ]

Why does everything weird happen in this bloody place?

[tactic]

[ CHANGES IT TO PST TIME ]

If things go right, it won't be for long.

[ Settles into his seat. ]

I'm glad to see you're okay, at least. It was quite shocking seeing so many people reviving in the cemetery together.

[haematocritical]

[ EST IS A NICE MIDDLE GROUND I CAN'T BE LOGGING ON AS ALL MY COLLEAGUES FINISH FOR THE DAY :tAILS: ]

Ugh. Don't remind me.

[ HOW MANY PEOPLE DIED ]

w7, saturday

[haematocritical]

[ wow we did it we beat god. ]

...

So now what?

[tactic]

[ NUDGES HIS ARM WITH AN ELBOW. ]

We say our goodbyes and make plans to see each other again.

[haematocritical]

[ is nudged, goes flying, breaks his neck and dies at the last minute permanently ]

We do have world hopping to abuse, I suppose. Where are you planning on going?

[tactic]

[ CAN YOU STOP ]

Ah, I wish I had something to tell everyone who asks me that. I'm waiting for someone to make a decision.
