Week 0: Sunday

[factoring]

[Kyoko can be found kind of wandering around the park, but she does look over when she sees Kaveh.]

Do you think that's going to happen every time?

[The softcore bit.]

[ohthehumanities]

[Honestly fair, wandering around is the best way to clear the vibe of "what the fuck".]

I won't show up if it does. [He didn't even want to watch the murder part that much, he just felt obligated... but then it got weird...]

[factoring]

That's fair. I went because I thought I should know how Sundays were handled.

[And now she does.]

[ohthehumanities]

...Yeah. I mostly went for Nahida's sake, but it's good to know.

[Well. Kind of.]

I'm not sure what we're going to do in the future, though, if we don't have any weapons in there.

[factoring]

[Stares into the distance as a Heal Aura user.]

It looks like we can use whatever powers we have and whatever our body is able to do.

[Heal Aura: team strangle them I guess.]

[ohthehumanities]

[SHAKES HER HAND IN HEAL AURA

He'll just say it actually--]

We have so many healers, though. How is that supposed to work?

[factoring]

We could ask to borrow a weapon, or failing that we could get desperate and strangle people.

[This is not a joke, but she doesn't like the idea she's put forward.]

week 2, monday

[ohthehumanities]

[Hello Kyoko!! She can find Kaveh in the library, pouring over a book on 1950s technology. Wow!! Fortunately, in here, the vibes are Very Focused; he's busy writing notes like a wholeass nerd ON A SEPARATE PIECE OF PAPER I GUESS tch.]

[factoring]

You look like you're having fun.

[Meanwhile Kyoko's emotions are just a calm hum.]

[ohthehumanities]

Hm? Oh--hello, Kyoko. Yes, this is fascinating. Have you seen this? [Holds up a page on transistors.] I'm learning a lot about how electrical currents are manipulated in a place like this. It makes a lot more sense now.

[factoring]

[Over top of the calm hum is a static crackle of being pleased.]

I have. Being able to use electricity comes in handy in my line of work. You could say without these I couldn't do my job in the same way.

[ohthehumanities]

Really? What kind of devices do you use for your job?

[factoring]

I use laptop and desktop computers. Almost all of my job is done through the internet.

Week 5, Monday

[ohthehumanities]

[HELLO KYOKO they are here in the cafeteria... where Kaveh is looking at this bug menu like what the fck.]

Who in the world is going to eat here?

[factoring]

Gerard may have...?

[ Kyoko is not eating here. ]

[ohthehumanities]

[Hmmm. You know, actually, now that she says that--]

Does that seem like a trend to you? Gaining access to places the erased would've enjoyed?

[factoring]

It does seem to be happening. At this point I think we can call it a pattern.

[ohthehumanities]

But why? Is it just... some kind of memorial gesture?

[factoring]

Hmm. I don't know if the people in charge are that kind. Should we be bringing these things to their empty graves?

Week 6, Saturday

[ohthehumanities]

[Well she was GUILTY SO THIS KIND OF CHANGES WHAT HE WAS ORIGINALLY GOING TO COME SAY HELPPPPP

But still, he will come find her. He's brought her a coffee, though it's a normal one, so she might not like it.]

Kyoko?

[factoring]

[You ever try to live through something and then realize how pointless it all is the day after?

Yeah.

She does take the coffee if it's offered to her though.]

Yes?

[ohthehumanities]

[KYOKO YOUR NIHILISM AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA]

I wanted to come apologize. [Even if you were guilty...] ...You didn't ask to be here any more than the rest of us.

[factoring]

[I really should've just let him... if I knew Wenzhou was gone.

She doesn't seem to mind normal coffee.]

We're all doing what we can, in whatever ways we find for ourselves. Unfortunately, the circumstances are terrible.

[ohthehumanities]

[He looks very sad at that thought, but he doesn't argue with her. He understands how she feels.]

They are.

[...]

...Could you tell me... a little more about what happened? You don't have to.

[factoring]

I woke up and I left our curfew spot because I didn't want to disturb anyone there. ... I went to the streets because I assumed it would be empty. Wolfwood found me there. [I didn't want it to be him, I didn't want to kill him. I don't want to kill.] We both tried to talk it out but... In the end, we're both stubborn.
