#REAPER MEET UP

As with last week, the Reapers will wake suddenly, with their IC rulebook in their hand and open to a page in the back -- which contains a note that's only visible to them. "Reapers! Today's meeting will be at the Apple Store at 7 AM sharp! There's coffee and snacks for everyone, so don't be late!" When they arrive the Shibu Department Store, at 07:00, they'll find themselves walking into a private area of the Apple store, with a door that closes and locks behind them once everyone is inside. It's roomy and filled with comfortable furniture, and lovingly decorated with the word "CONGRATULATIONS!!!" There's an even wider assortment of foods than normal with with coffee and Apple products present --- Maya's currently trying to wrestle a tablet out of Tenko's mouth. Oops. As always, music is on loop forever. Maya finally rescues the tablet from the puppy and then waves madly. "You guys did it!!" game info ☠ setting ☠ statuses ☠ ic profiles private conversations ☠ murder proposals ☠ money full nav

[ maya has also brought an extremely cute anime cake that says "SUGOI ^.^" and cuts a slice for undine and akira each, as Tenko whines. ]

First order of business: I got messages from Ranpo and Terra! Ranpo says good job and sorry to Akira, and Terra says thanks, and that he believes in you guys.

Seeeeecond order of business.... [ hands the get out of free jail card to undine. ] Ta duuuum! Great work, guys.

[ANYWAY AKIRA ALREADY HAS HIS LETTER TO THE COMPOSER PREPARED. . . he holds it out to Maya, chin tilted up]

[he also brought Akira the chickenpig to the meeting, so he can chill with Tenko. once Maya takes the letter, he'll lower the creature to the ground and let him waddle about, oinking at everything]

I don't really know how I feel about being congratulated over getting away with murder.

[feytality]

Junko says "eggplant emoji", by the way. I almost didn't tell you 'cause I wasn't sure it'd be helpful.

[ tenko is going to stop trying to eat the tablet and instead go sniff the fuck out of chickenpig. what's up, superior akira? ]

How about congrats on not getting Erased? Because for me, that's a win!

[purrtagonist]

[. . . . . . . ]

Tell Junko I said, "no thanks."

[why. superior Akira flaps his wings at Tenko, btw. commence sniff greetings!!]

Congratulations on not being Erased does put a more positive spin on things, though.

[feytality]

That's what I was going for!

[ tenko's going to bark and chase. ]

[alchemicalwater]

Ah...thank you, I suppose?

[It doesn't really feel like a victory, but. Undine will take that card, thanks.

And then she holds out a folded piece of paper to Maya.]

Can you give that to Caren for me? I...Chuuya asked me to give it to her, but if I gave it to her before the execution she would have known it was me.

[feytality]

[ of course she's going to read it first, but. ]

You guys didn't get Erased! That's a huge win!

[alchemicalwater]

[The note is a drawing of a red camellia, plus the following:]

Don't blame Akira. It was entirely my fault. In the end, I was the one who made the choice to kill him.

I'm sorry.

---

It is, but...it still feels a little hollow.

I'm sorry, I was a lot happier about surviving right after the trial. There's been time for everything to sink in, and I just feel guilty now.

[feytality]

Um... Akira... Bad news.

[ oh boy. ]

You, um... You can't target him this week. And I'm not just saying thst because he's my friend.

[purrtagonist]

[????]

Ah? Why not, then?

VELVET CROWE

[purrtagonist]

[we'll get around to it icly soon. . .!]

Victim Discussion

[purrtagonist]

[annnnd once business is taken care of. . . the part of these meetings Akira hates the most]

. . . it needs to be Shin this week.

[he sounds somber. he sounds like he doesn't want to suggest this]

[alchemicalwater]

...Yeah. He's the last one left of that group.

[The group that is most likely to cause a loss for the game, she means. The one most likely to ruin everything for the Players.]

Do you need me to do it? Because if he knows you're a reaper, then he'll probably come after you.

[purrtagonist]

[. . .]

You know, Vanitas approached me after the trial. He said you told him about what happened with Chuuya. He implied that I was a coward, for making you do all the dirty work. For making you take someone else's life in my stead.

[he shakes his head. Akira doesn't really think Vanitas was wrong]

That won't happen again. Not this time. It's me Shin wants to kill, so it's me that he'll get.

[alchemicalwater]

[Undine looks shocked to hear that, and then a little...frustrated, maybe?]

Oooh, Vanitas! I told him not to be mad at you over it!

[Guess who has problems with her partner not listening to her.]

Don't feel like you have to do it just because he was a jerk about it. But if that's your choice still, then alright. I'll back you up this time.

[And she holds out the card she just got from Maya, offering it to Akira.]
