WEEK 6

Good morning, passengers. Happy Sunday. Happy New Year.

Three more of your number gone - or four, depending on your point of view. But regardless, you're down three bodies. The boat is getting less crowded, week by week. A loneliness only exacerbated by yet another new floor, and yet another section of topdeck. There are almost too many facilities for you to use by now, aren't there? And yet the amenities keep on coming. One of them is even personalized, this time, and perhaps not in a way you're fully comfortable with.

Who knows, maybe if your number falls enough, you'll be able to just exist permanently on the different floors. Might keep you out of the trial room for more than a week.

Are you at the point where you'd settle for that yet?

And if you look to the horizon, out in the distance... there are clouds starting to gather on the horizon this week.




SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY

[ ooc: Welcome to week 6, everyone! Remember to turn in AC here and coins for regains over here! If you wish to get in contact with the npcs, Davy Jones is over here, and The Captain is over here! And as requested, profiles are accessible here. ]

[Well, it's not like Lalli wanted to keep the bone. But he still has to ask:]

Why do you have something like that?
thisaroma: (a growing addiction that i can't deny)

It's... a bone from the demon Alice made a pact with a long time ago.

[ He turns it over in his hand. It's kind of like the core, huh...? Even though he'd snapped it before... ]

Lately monsters had been getting drawn in by it into our old hometown. I'd gotten rid of it just a little bit before I ended up here.

[That is very concerning to hear, and Lalli doesn't even try to cover up his reaction.]

Why did she make a pact with a demon? That's dangerous!
thisaroma: (to me you're like)

[personal profile] thisaroma 2021-03-04 05:46 am (UTC)(link)
It was to save my life. That was how she did it that first time, back when we were kids... using that demon's power to control monsters that could stop the people who were going to kill me.

[Decus your tragic backstory!]

Why were people going to kill you?
thisaroma: (the grey)

[personal profile] thisaroma 2021-03-04 02:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh... it's what I mentioned during that one trial before.

[ Allenby's, he means, though he can't really remember how much he said about it. ]

The orphanage director tried to frame me for a murder he and his sons committed, and I was going to be executed for it.

[ The irony of him trying to frame himself for murder to save Alice here was not, in fact, lost on him. ]

So that's why you stayed by her.

[It's with a lot of personal strength that he doesn't add 'even though she was horrible to you' to the end of it.

Still, he nods and gestures to the bone. Take it Decus, it's yours.
]
thisaroma: (a kiss from)

[personal profile] thisaroma 2021-03-05 03:02 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah. She was the only person who would stand up for me back then, and if she was willing to go that far for me, I was willing to do anything for her. I only still had this life at all because of her... and now that's doubly true.

[ After a moment, he closes his hand around the bone and slips it carefully into one of the inner pockets of his jacket. ]

Thanks.

[personal profile] silentscout 2021-03-05 03:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Mmm.

[He doesn't understand it, but he suspects it's because he didn't live it. So he'll let Decus be Decus without insulting him too much.]

Anything else here yours?
thisaroma: (and who am i to judge you)

[personal profile] thisaroma 2021-03-05 03:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Nah, that's it.

[ So he won't keep taking up his time. ]

Take care.

[personal profile] silentscout 2021-03-07 04:16 am (UTC)(link)
Mmm. You too.

[TRY NOT TO DIE oh wait.]
