SUNDAY, w0 post-execution;

[recrypt]

[ uhhh fuck where are they. did we say they just happened to head back to the cabins at the same time. let's just go with that. neither flayn nor guy are around, which, hm.

45 just waves to steph briefly when their eyes meet, but doesn't say anything because uhhh, what the fuck do you say to that. out of everyone from the castle it definitely seemed like she was taking it the hardest, so.

bad? ]

... So, we're burning this place to the ground, right?

[vigilantics]

Yup.

[ she pops the p, folding her arms over her chest. ]

My apologies to the camp counselors, but they are going to have to move somewhere else.

[recrypt]

Are they still saying they have the situation under control, or should we check again just to make sure?

We'd probably need to update them on any plans we have to alter the grounds, after all.

[ you know, like setting it on fire after they're done with everything. ]

[vigilantics]

Obviously? It's the polite thing to do.

[ and ladies are always polite??? ]

week 1, saturday

[vigilantics]

[ where are they. is it the cabin. it's the cabin.

but stephanie is just sitting on the floor, frowning. ]

Do you have any idea where we could have gone wrong?

[recrypt]

[ blinks flatly over at. it might take half a moment or so for her optics to focus. ]

How serious of a question is that, and do you mean for me to try to review everything that happened in depth, or is this more of a general thing?

[vigilantics]

[ she snorts. ]

I mostly want to just get an idea of how little we figured out. Everyone I talked to so far has no idea where we went wrong, whether it was that Ogata was deliberately framed, or we looked at a piece of evidence the wrong way, or...

[ she could go on. sighs. ]

WEDNESDAY, w2 at some time;

[recrypt]

[ they are at the beach in subd for a date(???). how did they get here. i don't know. steph probably decided no wallflower rights after the hot springs party yesterday. 45 is not necessarily putting up much of a fight, but also, ]

... Is this strictly necessary?

[vigilantics]

Yes!

[ it's said so cheerfully. she places her hands on her hips. ]

You need to have the full experience.

[recrypt]

The full experience of a date, prompted by a task.

[ hmmm. ]

Remind me what the point of encouraging everyone to, I don't know, make friends and be nice to each other is again, when they're also encouraging us to kill each other at the same time?

week 2, sunday

[vigilantics]

[ the execution was terrible. actually, the entire weekend was, but it was truly a perfect bookend to an especially terrible week.

stephanie is mostly just walking through camp, trying to figure out something to occupy her. having thoughts is bad, actually?? but when she sees 45, she'll pause. ]

Hi.

[recrypt]

[ terrible job, everyone. ]

... Guten Tag, Stephanie.

[ so uh, about your not boyfriend. one of them, anyway. ]

You look like you need a distraction.

[vigilantics]

What gave you that idea?

[ there's a pause, and she laughs. ]

Yeah. I do.

WEDNESDAY, w3 early morning i guess;

[recrypt]

[ something something group effort got the roof fixed? i guess. now they're together while flayn is off somewhere. wow. ]

... how long do you think it'll last?

[vigilantics]

An hour.

[ none trust. ]

[recrypt]

Do you think we'll get double points if we do it again.

[ yeah she has about the same amount of faith in their handiwork ]

FRIDAY, w3 post-investigations;

[recrypt]

[ wow mess hall. five bodies, a lot. love it.

as she makes her way into the mess hall, it's kind of immediately apparent how slowly and stiffly she's moving? hm.

anyway, she makes her way over to ... they better have hot chocolate available because that's what she's making, even if she looks very oddly distracted, like she has half a mind to go back outside right this instant. ]

[vigilantics]

[ there is hot chocolate, yeah



granted, steph is drinking a slushie, which is a terrible winter drink. but when she sees 45 she waves. ]

... you okay?

[recrypt]

Don't sleep in the cabin by the lake in the snow. It's got a most dreadful draft~

[ ah. ]

I'll be fine. The idiot who wanted to spend the night in the forest, and who I only managed to drag into the lakeside cabin instead before curfew hit, on the other hand.

[ warm drinks are something to apply to cases of hypothermia, right. ]

SATURDAY, w4 post-trial did you think i was fucking joking;

[recrypt]

[ DID YOU THINK I WAS JOKING ABOUT HOW IT WAS ALREADY ICLY A STRETCH SHE LET IT SIT UNTIL SATURDAY

anyway where you after trial, steph, the roomba's vibin. ]

Let's just get this out of the way before anything else happens.

What happened in there, and what did you find. Deliver if in the form of bullet points if you must.

[vigilantics]

[ lmao ]

We had to play some dumb game show. Our injuries were punishments for when we didn't play along.

[recrypt]

[ if this were right after breakin she'd joke about Steph doing this twice in a row but because it's trial it's just unhappy business roomba ]

A game show, for one of the Directors' cabins.

week 5, friday

[vigilantics]

[ hello they are running into each other at the bonfire. ]

... hey.

Re: week 5, friday

[recrypt]

[ she

startles a little, actually, and by startle it's more like. glances sharply over at, as opposed to her usual ambiguity and lack of care.

there's a cup of water in her hand, and she glances at it for a long moment before looking back over at steph. ]

... Steph.

[vigilantics]

... 45.

[ she pauses, but then moves to sit down. ]

Are you alright?
