WEEK 2

[bathymetric]

So far, good news! You've managed to avoid killing! A week has passed in the facility, but how many more are there to go until one of you tries out Rule Seven? I mean.... we know, but.

No new areas just yet, it remains you guys and yours here for now. Well, and Angel, but again - you don't exactly see her unless you want to. It's more than a little lonely... maybe someone ought to shake things up.



SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY

[ ooc: Welcome to Week 2, your first case week! Remember to turn in regains here, your AC for last week here, and if you like, come visit Angel's office hours here!

Figures. [ Even knowing humans are born with no inherent purpose, she still can't help but assign them privately, and Mira clearly wasn't intended for combat. ] You ever wanted to?

[philoxenia]

[ There's... a notable pause in which she doesn't say anything... but her expression? That sure does. It's pretty damn conflicted.

Eventually, though... ]

I can't say I have... Um, but there have been times where I wish I were stronger.

[ ... that's sure two conflicting answers, huh! ]

[hardnosed]

[ Jasper's eyes narrow as she watches Mira. Whatever she's looking for, and whether or not she finds it, remain undetermined. ]

Take that feeling. Use it. And don't forget what this is for. An opponent won't stay still, or wait for you to follow through.

[philoxenia]

[ Ah, she feels uncomfortable! But at least Jasper doesn't prod at it. ]

... I'll try. It sounds easier said than done-- for me, at the very least.

[hardnosed]

If it was easy, anyone could do it. It might as well be worthless. You can rise to the challenge, or you can die in a hole at the bottom of the ocean. Which one's it gonna be? [ Very abruptly, she says: ] Hit it again.

[ pretend it's her face!! ]

[philoxenia]

Oh-- [ that sure was a swerve!! ] R-right!

[ It's not Jasper's face she's imagining, but it's like. Pretty effective. There's actually quite a bit of force in her hit, especially compared to before. Seems like Jasper was actually helpful, how shocking!! ]

[hardnosed]

Better.

[ Despite the icon, it's not quite a smile that Jasper's wearing, but there's definitely something a little more pleased about the series of rounded-off rectangles that is her face. ]

How did that feel?
