sengokus | childe gets to bully now

[Childe stares at him for a minute, then hums slightly, shifting in his seat. Presumably his leg is at least bandaged by now? Who knows.]

I imagine if you were willing to share the name, you would've done so, so I won't press. But if that's the case, it likely had a connection to them.

[Which, yikes! If so.]

Yes--we were granted power, but had to return it to the goat in order to return here. Something didn't want us to, hence--

[He just fuckin. Lifts his handless arm slightly.]

[ . . . he looks thoughtful about it.]

If you don't find them yourselves first, I'm gonna talk to them after this. And if they say it's fine to give you their name, I will. But for right now... it seems like such a weird connection I don't want to draw suspicion to them if it's just a trick of this place.

[it's more because it's not his news to spread exactly that he won't give a name. fucking weird. hello?]

.... you had to fight that something? Is that what Primrose-san was talking about...?

Well, if it's someone amongst us, I have a couple of ideas. But if they're unwilling to speak to me, that's fine too.

[Given one of his guesses isn't someone he's personally close to. But that's an interesting theory--he'll have to see what happens tomorrow before he dwells on it too much.]

Yes, among other things. There weren't many instances where we weren't fighting--at least in my case. We were separated a few times.

[ . . . he blinks.]

What were you fighting...? Was it all just stuff on the path to get to the goat?

Dogs, skeletons, and someone from home, to name a few things.

[Hm.]

And yes, I suppose so. I believe it was also a person? [HM.] As I said, it was a bit difficult to understand what was happening.

Someone from home? Your home?

And - a person....?!

[THIS SOUNDS SO

SCATTERED]

[IT WAS. A TIME.]

Yes, and yes.

[Okay but Childe could be like a little more helpful, even with all the blood loss,]

Actually, it involved two people I know from home. I'm not pleased with that, I have to say.

[He had a great time with all the fighting but if this place could stay out of his head he'd appreciate it, thanks!! It's been a very long week for him!!!!]

[that's. hm.]

That's... Yeah. That sucks. I'm sorry, Childe-san. These illusions really hit hard.

[his brow furrows]

Did you talk to anyone from last week's group at all...? I don't know if they gave you more details to see if you could figure out any commonalities between what happened...

Mm.

[A noncommittal sound, to the first.

To the second--]

Sheila, Harrow, and the other two, you mean? I heard some of the details, but the only thing seems to be these objects we brought back. [Nodding towards the fucking. Porn book. I hate this.] Even then, we only had one strange hat.

[So it's not much of a connection, but it's about all he's got, for a starting basis. He isn't in much of a state to be investigating tonight, even if he did have time to do so before the doors locked.]

I have a feeling the Marquis and Miss Primrose will do exactly that, though, so I'll discuss it with them when we're in slightly better shape.

[

Vlad just gets left out, wow]

Hm.... Well - maybe look through the items and I heard that the Avatars can tell you... some things? Even if it's not everything. You'd know better questions to ask about your experience than I would.

[he tilts his head and only briefly glances to the porn book. yikes.]

.... erm, and Vlad-san...?

[THEY DON'T KNOW HE'S DEAD YET STOP]

[He just raises a very pointed eyebrow.]

Vlad had a meaningful connection with Sasazuka?

[Considering the other three were women, and we all know how the women in this game feel about Vlad.]

[ . . . . . . ]

He did?

[HE SOUNDS SHOCKED MORE IN THE SENSE OF

SOMEONE CAN HAVE A MEANINGFUL CONVERSATION WITH SASAZUKA?]

[MINEO HE WAS ASKING YOU. ...Okay more like pointing out how ridiculous a scenario that is.]

I think that reaction is enough explanation for why I didn't include him.

[WHO IN GROUP 1 WOULD HAVE TOLD VLAD CYOA DEETS. NO ONE.]

Still, if he cares, we'll inform him when we find out more. [They will not actually because he's DEAD!!]

[hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm]

I figure he probably cares... He hates being left out of stuff.

[mineo's concern extends to the incel who technically still hasn't done anything wrong? what even happened here]
