w4, wednesday post mini-event

[ what the heck was all that anyway.

shu’s over in the north section of the park, sat on one of the swings and reading through something on his iris. he seems pretty lost in thought. every now and again he pushes himself back and forth with his feet, almost absentmindedly. ]

[applebough]

[ Yuri has been hanging in the Mega Park for a while all week. She has a feeling that it'll become a popular lockdown spot as well, so she might as well get used to its peace while she still can.

She could be cute, but Shu seems very serious that Yuri will just take the swing next to him without saying anything. ]

[roseoftexas]

[ finally gets a chance to reply to this. wow. ]

Hey.

[ he'll just tilt his iris so she can read this ]

Figured it was my turn.

[applebough]

[ shakes u

Yuri leans over so that she can take a look. ]

Oh.

[ oAo She leans in even closer (yes she's still sitting on her swing) to try and read it better, but then she's too close to his face and never mind. ]

... Could you send that over to me?

[roseoftexas]

[ no they're super leaned in now. shu's not moving back. is she going to be the straight chicken here? ]

Sure. It's more logs, mostly, with parts encrypted. I might need to ask the senior crew about getting that cleared up.

[applebough]

[ yeah because she's chickening out

Anyway she sits normally on her own swing now and starts reading it over. ]

... It seems like Adrastea would be the person to ask about this. Even if they don't remember the past, they might be able to clear things up in a "I know I would do this in this situation" sort of hypothesis.

[ Adrastea just looks like she got everything handled. ]

[roseoftexas]

[ tch. ]

They're normally the person I'd go to for something like this. They seem pretty aware of what's going on around them. Although no clue how good they are with computers and encryption though.

[ that's the only downside. ]

[applebough]

Adrastea was the one who tried to get around the security lock back on our first week here.

[ aka the execution where io x wall was born ]

So I think they would have a very good shot at it.

[roseoftexas]

[ io x wall otp. ]

Ah. You're right. I'll run it past them then, if they can't do anything they can probably tell me who could. Because it seems like something important was going on there.

[applebough]

[ Yuri nods. ]

I would make some guesses, but...

[ Hm. Yuri puts the IRIS away. ]

... I think I would need more information. Aside from that, do you think I should hide in the ventilation during future lockdowns? I don't think people full of anger would even think about searching there.

[roseoftexas]

We always need more information.

[ story of our lives.

i continue to be concerned by things. ]

Maybe? But if someone was awake with the urge to kill, they might keep hunting for someone else awake. It's hard to say if they'd just be furious or focused.

[applebough]

Then they should keep searching until the senior members wake up.

[ Yeah!! But she looks over at Shu and reaches out to pat his shoulder. ]

You'll be getting the information whenever you contact Adrastea.

[roseoftexas]

Make it hard for them, rather than easy. [ he thinks about it. ] Maybe having a few hiding spots isn't a bad idea.

[ keep them guessing, week after week. ]

True. That's one more part, at least.

[applebough]

[ Yuri nods. ]

Do you think... we can vote for dead people?

[roseoftexas]

...

No. Probably not.

[ closes his eyes. ]

You could ask if you were curious, but-- I don't think this place would allow it.

[applebough]

... I'll ask on the next trial.

[ She doesn't think they can either with how cheat-like the trial would become, but... ]

[roseoftexas]

[ he nods. ]

We should know, either way. In case someone tries.

[applebough]

[ Yuri looks off into the distance, thinking. There's some time of silence between the two. ]

... Was the paintball game fun? I only watched from the sidelines with some of the senior members.

[roseoftexas]

[ hehe ]

I think so. I got the one that looked like me right in the face.

[ SATISFIED. ]

[applebough]

I saw. You looked really cool.

[ ................. ]

I also found out that was Scien, so thinking back on the actions of your pixelated self was kind of...

[ Yuri won't say it, but it was funny. ]

[roseoftexas]

[ he just grins. ]

Yeah. He complained about it to me personally.

[ zero regrets. ]

[applebough]

I'm glad you had fun.

[ Yuri laughs a little. ]

... It was nice to see you in action.

[roseoftexas]

Shooting?

[ he looks at his hand. ]

Yeah. It's been a while. Not a bad way to warm up and get back into it.

Was there any reason you didn't want to get invovled with it? Paint related pacifism?

[applebough]

Oh, um... no.

[ Yuri nervously laughs. ]

... I'm not a pacifist, but I was tired out by repeatedly attacking someone.

[roseoftexas]

[ ...


a grin slips on his face. ]

Who?
