w0, saturday 2.0

[shiftingwinds]

[onward to the GYM. word of mod is that all of the evidence is gone if i read discord right, which means upon entering... shi qingxuan frowns.]

How are we supposed to correct our mistake if we can't even investigate this anymore...?

[holeful]

[Fukuda had come here with a similar intent, and when all the evidence was gone, he just sorta got disheartened and sat down on the floor?]

I guess they don't want us to. Or maybe they want us to suffer with the mistake we made?

[shiftingwinds]

I wasn't under the impression that any of them particularly wanted us to suffer.

[holeful]

They could have lied about it? I don't really know.... Or maybe whoever brought us here wants that.

[shiftingwinds]

...whatever the reason, I can't say I like it much.

w1, saturday

[shiftingwinds]

[i'm. you know what. i'm just going to reuse this toplevel for every bar pc tonight.

anyway! shi qingxuan is here. she does not look happy. in fact, she's drinking directly from a big jug of rice wine, despite her nerfed alcohol tolerance. tomorrow she's probably going to be hungover as fuck.]

...ugh.

[holeful]

[Ma'am....]

Tonight's a good night for your indulgence, isn't it?

[shiftingwinds]

I think this probably counts for Despair. "Drink your sorrows away," or something.

[she groans, crosses her arms on the counter, and just. rests her face on them.]

[holeful]

Aah, I suppose it does.

[Pats her back....]

We don't have a good track record, do we.

[shiftingwinds]

Not in the slightest.

[mmmmmmgh.]

week 2 friday

[holeful]

[Well so actually Fukuda immediately comes over when he sees SQX at the bar.]

Ah, miss Qingxuan... what are you drinking?
[He is trying to casually be a narc but he's bad at the casual part.]

[shiftingwinds]

[holds up her glass. it's literally just water.]

Water.

[holeful]

..........




Can... I have a sip? Just to make sure... Vodka is clear too. I don't want miss Harrow to yell at me again.
[A statement that means nothing to SQX since she couldn't hear that conversation.]

[shiftingwinds]

[she hands him the glass, but also: ]

...when did Harrow yell at you?

[holeful]

[He will take a sip to confirm it is water before handing it back to her.]

Ah, during the execution, when I mentioned I'd seen you drinking Saturday night. She said I should have told you to stop.

w2, saturday

[shiftingwinds]

[w... well.

shi qingxuan comes to visit fukuda in jail.

she, uh, she really does not seem to know what to say.]

[holeful]

I suppose this is what I get for accusing Ming Yi so flippantly, hm?

[He's somehow in his usual airy mood.]

[shiftingwinds]

That's - that's not what I came here to say.

[holeful]

What did you come here to say, then?

[shiftingwinds]

To apologize for voting for you.

...and to ask you more about why you suspected Douman.

week 7 friday

[holeful]

[Well huh sucks about the avatars but people still need to eat!! Fukuda is getting a katsu sandwich out of the machine and almost jumps when he turns around and sees SQX.]

Ah... hello, miss Qingxuan.
[He seems uncomfortable!]

[shiftingwinds]

[oh. he does seem uncomfortable.]

...hello.

[she doesn't want him to be uncomfortable? she glances from him to the sandwich]

I'll - be in and out very quickly.

[he can just relax and eat, she won't linger if he'd rather not be around her]

[holeful]

[He was about to say the same, but. Well. The irony of them apparently both skulking around is sort of funny. He can't help but laugh. But then he just looks sad.]

I don't understand you, miss Qingxuan. But please, don't feel need to hurry yourself.

[shiftingwinds]

[she's just here to get some tea from the vending machine tbh


so she'll do that once it's freed up]

...I suppose I haven't been very easy to understand, have I.

[holeful]

... Why did you kill miss Eleanor?

[He just fucking goes for it.]
