w4, wednesday

[shiftingwinds]

[wherever aoi happens to be on wednesday, takeru and sqx will come looking for her!!]

Aoi? Do you have a second?

[gamerbrain]

[ aoi is in the common room! just sitting around doing nothing? like a normal person. ]

Aoi is free.

[dotcom]

We have something for you.

[shiftingwinds]

[the timing of this is hilarious after harrow's "don't take gifts"

anyway, sqx pulls a small spray bottle out of her sleeve (which i was rereading and she used to keep jugs of alcohol in there in canon? sqx you have a problem) to hand over to her.]

It'll help you defend yourself, if you need to.

[gamerbrain]

[ alcohol-sleeves are the new bread-sleeves? aoi takes the bottle and looks at it with confusion. ]

... What is it?

[dotcom]

Pepper spray.

[ ... ]

Homemade, so it's not as effective as the kind you can buy. But it'll still help in a pinch.

[shiftingwinds]

If anyone tries to do anything to you that you don't like, spray them in the face with it, and then run, okay?

[gamerbrain]

[ hmm, aoi doesn't like that? ]

Will it hurt them...?

[dotcom]

It won't kill them. They can just wash their eyes later and they'll be fine.

It'll just be enough so you can not die immediately. [ ... ] Preferably not at all.

[shiftingwinds]

[she nods]

It's to help you protect yourself, not to hurt someone. You don't need to worry about that.

[gamerbrain]

[ hmm. she turns the bottle over in her hands a bit, looking kind of like she wants to give it back? ]

Harrow said Aoi wasn't likely to get attacked, anyway.

[dotcom]

We're giving you a gift so take it.

[ he would be a lot ruder here normally it's fine ]

[shiftingwinds]

I hope Harrow is right. If you never need to use it, that's a good thing. [...] But it's better to be prepared, just in case. It would be awful if something happened to you, Aoi.

[she knows firsthand that aoi's punches don't hurt! clearly, she needs something to defend herself with.]

[gamerbrain]

[ hmm. she thinks about it for a second longer before setting it down on her lap. ]

Got it. Aoi will keep it because it's a gift. Um... Thank you.

But did everyone else get one? Aoi isn't as important.

[dotcom]

[ ...

he just looks at shi qingxuan and sighs. and then sasazuka will reach over and give her a singular pat on the head. nice week! ]

It's just for you. Other people have things to protect themselves with. And I don't give gifts out lightly, so keep that with you at all times.

[shiftingwinds]

[also reaches over and pats aoi's head once sasazuka's hand is down]

You're important too, Aoi. If you want to thank us, just keep yourself safe, all right?

[gamerbrain]

[ hrm. she frowns at both of these head pats. ]

Boop boop... Got it. Aoi will hold onto it and stay safe...

[dotcom]

[ he is also frowning at them. it's fine. ]

And don't tell anyone else about it, so it's a surprise.

[shiftingwinds]

[she nods at that!! wouldn't want someone preparing themselves to murder by wearing goggles or something.]

[gamerbrain]

Aoi is good at keeping secrets.

[dotcom]

[


his expression is so doubtful but he can't voice that. ]

[shiftingwinds]

[well. hopefully aoi is telling the truth.]

That's good. Thank you, Aoi. You'll be giving us some peace of mind by keeping that with you.
