WEEK 5; Monday

#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

I don't intend on it.

[She doesn't control the game, but she will still try her best. She's not ready to be erased.]

[purrtagonist]

[they managed to protect Akira last week, so. . .]

We should do something similar to what we did last week. You can come with me. Even if you don't help, that way, I can keep you safe.

[alchemicalwater]

[She nods in agreement.]

Alright, that seems fair.

[purrtagonist]

[he breathes out a sigh of relief]

Thanks.

[that'll make him feel a lot better about things]

In other news, we can't go after Shin. So. . . ah. Any other ideas?

[let's ICly get to Velvet oops]

[alchemicalwater]

[Yeah whoops indeed]

I don't really know...I don't want to target anyone who's not a bad person. Even if we HAVE to erase someone, it feels wrong to target most of the people left.

Is there anyone left who might hurt others? And not just in a 'they're strong' way, but someone who actually WOULD hurt someone.

[purrtagonist]

[. . . . . .]

[he. . . has an idea, but. . .]

Shin's partner. Velvet.

She hasn't hurt anyone yet, but she did talk about killing people back at the beginning of the Game.

[annnnd she's attached to Shin, so. . .? but, god. that feels. . . particularly underhanded]

[alchemicalwater]

[Undine does feel bad about targeting someone for saying crappy stuff at the beginning of the game, but...]

She...hasn't really acted on those words...But we might not have a better option at this point.

[purrtagonist]

She hasn't. [and for that reason and that alone, he doesn't wish to hurt her] But you're right. We don't have any better options.

[not that there are any "good" options in the first place]

[alchemicalwater]

Then... I guess that's what we have to do.

I'll still be there to back you up.

[purrtagonist]

[he drops a hand on her head, a comforting gesture]

Thank you, Undine.

[deep breath in, deep breath out]

Let's do this, then. Just like every week.
