Week 2.

[trustfellowship]

WEEK 2 With the deaths of Felicia and Arietta, a new week dawns. Regardless of how you felt about their deaths, one fact remains: you have a better understanding of the stakes, as well as the Transmitter's rules. Fortunate, really, given that you're still bound by them. Saturday is given to regrouping and rest; the static blares out early on Sunday, but at least there are no bodies to find today - it seems you're safe for now. The night before wasn't necessarily a peaceful one, however; you'll probably feel a bit groggy when you wake up, and it seems you've regained something that you didn't realize you'd lost... However, it seems that isn't your only "reward" for making it through the week; it seems that doors have opened in the hallway across from the communal areas you'd had already, revealing a few corridors in a new section of the building. Were those doors there before today? Maybe they were, maybe they weren't. But the fact of the matter is, they're there now. Consider it another way to make your stay here more acceptable; after all, the Transmitter doesn't want you to leave, remember? PATIENTS REMAINING: 28

SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY

[ It would be so easy to be petty and kick the box of cigarettes a touch further. So, so very easy.

But Tsubasa isn't that type of person. ...Still, it's always something with Madison-san, isn't it?

She takes a cigarette out of the pack and puts it up to Madison's mouth, first of all. That armor looks too heavy for her to even attempt to lift it on her own, so she might go get some help from Kogami-san, or someone else with meat on their bones, but if nothing else... ]

...Matches?

[ Or did she just want something to stick in her mouth? ]

[yourpiecenow]

No, I'll just fucking chew it like it's a pretzel. [WEIRDLY INTELLIGIBLE FOR SOMEONE WITH SOMETHING IN HER MOUTH but she does get a lot of practice ha-cha] Yes, matches.

[halleberry]

[ hi-oh! ]

I was asking if you had any...

[ Because she sure as hell doesn't; it's not as though she particularly has a reason to. ]

Give me a second. I'll be back. You just, ah...stay put? I guess? I don't suppose you're going anywhere, right...

[ At least she's in armor, so it's not like she's a sitting duck, so, off she goes...before she comes back with a book of matches and a rope from the storage room. ]

I'll let you smoke first, and then I'll hoist you back up.

[ At least she has the decency to let her light up first. ]

[yourpiecenow]

I left mine in my other hulking suit of armor.

[WELL YEAH SHE'S DEFINITELY NOT GOING ANYWHERE]

Honestly, what if I just stayed like this the entire time? I'm basically a giant metal turtle at this point-- as long as somebody throws me a ham sandwich every few days I'll probably outlive half of you.

[halleberry]

If you want to just stay sprawled out in the middle of the foyer, Madison-san, I'll make sure you're well-fed, you have my word. I'll even give you a pillow so you have something to sleep on at night. Might I ask what possessed you to wear the hulking suit of armor to begin with?

...Actually, hold that thought, how did this even fit in the machine?

[yourpiecenow]

I thought if I pounded my iron-clad body into the windows long enough something would happen. Also, it looks super cool when you're actually standing up and not, y'know. This.

[pause] ... Huh. How did it even come out?

[halleberry]

Shame I'll never get to see it, now that you've resigned yourself to laying on the floor forever. Not to mention, Kaminashi-san won't be able to make comments about your body anymore. A great loss, truly.

[yourpiecenow]

The world will mourn the loss of my hot bod.

[beat] ... Okay, so I'm kinda losing the feeling in my limbs right now.

[halleberry]

...That tends to happen when you don't get proper blood flow. Hang on, let me see if I can do this...

[ Okay, if we tie the rope around the midsection... ]

Okay, so I'm gonna try and tug...

[yourpiecenow]

If you can manage this, I will owe you something super huge. [though tbh she does. not expect her to manage this at all so she feels safe saying that.]

[halleberry]

Everyone really is fixated on debts around here...

[ Okay, three, two, one, and...she's pulling! Really putting her back into it, too; the armor is pretty damn heavy, but maybe if she tugs it hard enough, it'll at least lift her off the ground a bit, and Madison can orient herself from there..? ]

[yourpiecenow]

[see this is so nice and helpful and it'd be so wonderful if madison even deserved it

because literally five seconds after the pulling is done all she manages is to flop over on the side.]

[halleberry]

...O-Okay, wait. Maybe I can work with this...

[ At least she's not on her stomach anymore, so maybe if we tug her the other way, so she'll land up on her feet..?

There really isn't much in the way of a Plan B here, short of getting someone to help put some muscle in... ]

[yourpiecenow]

Hasn't somebody gotten something useful from that machine? Like, a buzzsaw or something?

[halleberry]

The absolute last thing we need is someone here ending up with a buzzsaw...

[yourpiecenow]

If they could get me out of this fucking thing before going all Leatherface on everyone, I sure wouldn't mind.

[halleberry]

How the heck did you even get in it? Is there some kind of clasp I can get to?

[yourpiecenow]

Climbed in. I was on some chairs, but I guess I knocked those over...

[beat]

Also, completely naked in here. Just. FYI.

[halleberry]

You just stripped down and decided to jump off some chairs?

[ ...And she thought Nachetanya and Nozomi were bold. Holy crap. ]

Maybe I can chisel you out with some of the art supplies..?

[ Though that probably won't work; that armor looks really sturdy... ]

[yourpiecenow]

Yeah? [LIKE SHE'S DONE THIS BEFORE]

If you can't find a giant can opener, I guess that would also work.

[halleberry]

...In the future, Madison-san, maybe you shouldn't do something so reckless...

[yourpiecenow]

In the future, I am definitely going to do even more reckless things, and literally nothing you can say or do will stop me.

[she's honest at least]

[halleberry]

[ Yes, sincerity is an important trait to have. ]

I appreciate the tenacity, at least. As long as it doesn't kill you, I suppose you should at least keep trying new things. I'll go see about those tools.

[yourpiecenow]

Cool. I'll stay here. Try to sweat off a few pants sizes.
