Week 5; Monday
 |
 When it hits 07:00, the Reapers are probably expecting to be teleported into a shady corner to meet up with the Host again. It does not go quite like that though. Between one blink and the next, they will suddenly find themselves teleported from wherever they just were and to what seems to be a greenhouse. Strangely enough, if they peek through its various windows, none of the outside landscape looks familiar. What seems to be sunlight can sort of be made out in the distance, but there is a peculiar haze that makes figuring out how far away they are from it difficult. Despite this fog, the actual interior of the greenhouse is fairly brightly sunlit. They'll also notice a song playing from invisible speakers. At the table, despite the fact that no one asked for anything last week, there are two things. One is spaghetti and the other is hotpot. Take your pick. "Good morning, everyone. Shall we get started?" game info ☠ setting ☠ statuses ☠ ic profiles private conversations ☠ murder proposals ☠ money full nav |

... I'm sure there is a lot you all want to discuss today.
no subject
...I'm pretty sure you know what we've been doing. And what we've talked about. Right?
[She is, after all, the Composer.]
no subject
[ she takes a sip of her tea. ]
no subject
He'll just ask straight out, then.]
...Is it possible for us to change sides, in order to give the players more time to fulfill your conditions?
no subject
If that's what you want. I must add that me allowing it is not the same as me confirming that it is the right thing to do though.
no subject
Still-]
...Alright. I just wanted to know. I wouldn't change sides anyway - there's no point in me doing that.
[He does. Give her a bit of a look though, because....well. He still doesn't think it was an accident he and Akira were paired up, and one thing he's had pounded into him?
Trust no Composer.]
no subject
[ she doesn't sound judgmental about it at least. ]
no subject
Is there any way you can give us advice on how to help the Players do what you're looking for from them?
[She figures a straight answer is out of the question but any clues are helpful.]
Is Nanami(?) busy today?
no subject
[ nanami(?) gives anthy a Look, but if it's mary then it's okay. ]
I will say that despite the... unfortunate losses [ she glances at the seats where izaya and jacopo normally occupy ] that last week was a step in the right direction overall.
no subject
Oh! Good! Everybody did something right!
[But in what way she's, uh, not really sure.]
Are there still a lot of steps left to go?
no subject
[ she pauses, thinking. ]
Mary, what do you think was different about this recent trial?
no subject
[It takes her a minute. There was a lot that went on there.]
A lot of people came out and shared all the secrets they'd been keeping from each other?
no subject
[ she tapes a sip of her tea. ]
no subject
[She guesses that makes sense...]
If Jacopo hadn't acted the way that he did, do you think he'd still be alive?
no subject
What lead to his erasure was a series of coincidences. I would not blame his actions for them. [ ... ] I do think his death is what caused others to share, like Magnus. I don't think he would have said anything if he hadn't gotten that push.
no subject
[Mary isn't sure that it makes her feel any better...but in the end, he's helping them even now, with his Erasure, isn't he? Jacopo is such an incredible person.]
But if people keep dying every week, how can we be sure they'll keep being honest? Isn't it scary to think you're telling the wrong things to the wrong people?
no subject
no subject
[But does she want to accept it? That's another question entirely.]
Decisions help things end...but I don't like endings. Why can't everything just go on and on forever?
no subject
no subject
[Though she wonders if maybe it's better to be unhappy than to be alone or gone forever. Disappearing sounds just as bad as being lonely. But here, in the Reaper Game...there's an eternity of friendships just waiting for Mary. Although, ah, as Anthy said...all of those have ended, too. Nothing and nobody ever really stay forever. It makes her feel sad to think about.]
Maybe it's something I'm just not so good at understanding.
no subject
[ she looks down at nanami(?). ]
So don't worry if you don't get it know, or if it takes a long time to.
no subject
I get that it's up to the Players, but isn't there anything you can tell us to... You know? Help me help them?
no subject
no subject
It's just hard to know if we're on the right track or just fucking up, you know?
no subject
