[ oh that sure is a 20!
well. it works and his own knife is sent skittering out of his hand leaving him to keep a distance until he can scoot back and grab it. ]

[ Yuri makes a downward slash at his shoulder. She even makes the foam sword bounce to smack his head for good measure lol ]
[ well, he remembered her wanting to see the shooting stars at some point, so when he's awake and moving after the decommissioned announcement, shu traces the path towards where the shooting stars should be at this time.
now that someone didn't die here, this week. ]
Yuri?
[ is she already here? ]

Yuri?
[ is she already here? ]
[ Yuri is already here with her practice sword tight in her grip and sitting on the grass field, looking up at the "night sky". When she hears her name, she turns around to see Shu and loosens her hold on the practice sword. ]
... Hello.
[ She smiles a little. ]
... Hello.
[ She smiles a little. ]
[ i will continue to be paranoid until we reach a verdict tomorrow, tbh. ]
...
You okay?
[ all things considered. ]

[ rude, but also funny. the strikes connect, and he ends up kinda -- laughing when a blow bounces off his head.
it doesn't stop him from dropping down to reclaim his weapon and swinging it at her legs though. ]

[ Okay, she can't help but laugh when Shu does and that distracts her from the foam knife striking her legs and she topples over.
She smacks his legs too, though. Fall with her. ]

A little under the weather, but I'm fine.
[ Yuri pats on the spot on the ground next to her. Come sit with her. ]
I hope I can see them tonight...

[ his legs are smacked.
there's just enough of a pause for it to be kinda clear he's doing this on purpose, before he drops as well. whee. ]

[ Yuri laughs and sets her foam sword aside. ]
... You're so silly, Shu.

Under the weather?
[ he looks like he's about to do the hand to the forehead thing, but he stops himself because RUST. ONCE AGAIN. but he will sit down next to her, giving her a slow glance and then looking up at the sky. ]
It did say it happens on Fridays. We didn't get a chance to check it out last week.
[ diluc.... ]

[ he rolls over so that their (covered) shoulders are bumping. ]
Hmmm. Maybe.
That help at all?

[ keep getting affection cockblocked by rust... ]
Mm. I've never had a chance to see them, so I'm a little excited.
[ Sure. Excited. ]
... That [ Yuri mimics the hand motion ] is quite a habit of yours, huh?

I feel a lot better. Thank you, Shu.
[ The mats are comfy. ]
... It really helped.
[ She considers doing something but... she eyes the camera. ]

[ tch. ]
There's normally too much light pollution in New Sieg to see this kind of thing when there's a meteor shower, so I only ever saw them before I ended up living there.
[ it's been a while. ]
Hm, well-- that was meant to be me checking your temperature. Wouldn't do any good if I hit an old injury in the process.

[ they are just lying here now. also live your dreams, yuri. ]
Good.
Should probably think of some other things as well. You'll run yourself into the ground if you're on the go all the time.

It's so hard to relax when I want to be useful...
[ :(
No, she's camera-shy. (Lie) ]
... I don't want to go back to thinking that no matter what I do, whatever I do won't matter.

My temperature? I'm not sick.
[ Yuri giggles a little. Anyway, she's wearing gloves and her default clothes, so she hugs his arm. ]

[ he tilts his head to look at her. ]
I'm... pretty convinced that's not the case here. I don't think anything that any of us are doing here doesn't matter, and that includes you.
We're piecing together whatever puzzle this place is bit by bit, but it's a group effort. Running yourself into the ground won't help you though.

That's what makes sense, but I can't help the creeping feeling in the back of my head sometimes. It's just...
[ She sighs. ]
... a very hard habit to break.

You said you felt under the weather.
[ well. he's
not stopping her. her arms are covered, so are his so-- he'll lean in to her. there's still parts of his body rusting, and he's aware of her touching any of it, or vice versa but. rust can't affection block on this friday. ]

[ eurgh. yeah, that's fair. ]
Mm. Habits are.
[ he's thinking. ] I'm not a behaviour therapist or anything. I'm probably the worst kind of person to be trying to tell you how to shake a habit, but it's really one small step at a time.

[ Yuri quietly sighs and rests her head against his arm. ]
... I can't wait for this week's effect to be over.
[ She laughs a little. ]
But at least you don't have the mustache anymore.

[ me everytime the under the weather question is dodged, haki: 
]
... I can't believe my facial hair wasn't a hit. If I figure out who cursed me, I'll have to let them know.
[ hehe. ]
Yeah. Ignoring the obvious, it's been-- difficult. Remembering all the places people have hurt themselves. [ they have all been so injured what the heck. ]

If there was someone with no trace of rust, I would be surprised. Everyone... gets hurt sooner or later.
[ Even their normies got rust. ]
