Week 0, Post Trial - (Detective) Reaper Fam

[withsadness]

[Here they all gather, around the great Moyai Statue, who is lonely and has done nothing wrong. He shall keep their secrets as they yell at a small angry child.]

Soooo...today was really enlightening!

[bladeisme]

[If you're expecting Ichigo to say anything, he's...

Not really going to, because he's just going to slide up against the statue and slide down to sit like the teenager he is, looking grim and kind of upset!]

....

[There are other reapers and also a good person is going to die tomorrow and it always, always hits him hard when a good Player dies, but it's especially hard tonight since the reveal that they're not the only Reaper group out there.]

...Maybe we're competing.

[That's the only thing he's going to say, for right now, quiet as it is.]

[concertmaster]

[he's on top of the moyai statue

knitting

what. he has hobbies.]

[grano]

Brat!

[ he folds his arms, scowling. ]

You didn't inform us that there were other Reapers. What purpose do they have in this game?

[concertmaster]

[mockingly]

You didn't inform us there were other Reapers. [in his normal voice] I didn't tell you jack shit except to wait for your orders on Monday. What's that? What day is it? Is it... Gasp? Can it be?!

It's not fucking Monday.

[voyeur]

[HONESTLY LAUGHING HE CAN'T HELP IT]

[withsadness]

Ooooh, what are you making?

[She has obvious priorities.]

[concertmaster]

[he stops in the middle of his knitting. hm.]

Life-sized decoys.

[.... no he's not kidding]

[voyeur]

She was definitely interesting, right?

Although, everyone, since we're a team, maybe we need to have a conversation about successfully lying instead of giving away secrets without provocation? I like an entertaining twist, but I'd prefer it a lot if I didn't get erased thanks to you guys.

[(ichigo)]

[bladeisme]

[HE'S AWARE HE FUCKED UP, THANK YOU?

But yeah, thanks.]

...I get it, already. I realized I fucked up the moment I said it.

[It's been hard for him to lie so much, alright? Normally all he has to do is worry about how many Noise he's letting loose and let those do the work for him.]

[voyeur]

[He waves his hand, dismissing it. It isn't important anymore.]

It's out now already, so whatever. Do you need help or something? I don't mind if it's for a teammate. I'll even give the advice for free.

[withsadness]

It's okay, Ichigo! Maybe you're just the kind of person better suited for attacking over talking?

[She didn't mean for that to be insulting...I'm sorry.]

Everyone has their different talents!

[allsetfree]

I know it's hard not to get riled up, but come on, man. They're looking for Reapers.

[ she nudges him lightly because she's not actually? angry or anything, and it's not like she did great out there, either. she's kind of half just teasing. ]

[withsadness]

Don't worry, I don't have any plans on getting myself killed. No special secret-rule revelations or dramatic speeches from me!

[She knows she can be a pretty silly kid, but she's not that silly.]

[voyeur]

Haha! That's why you're the best, Mary!

[He holds his hand out for him. Give him a high five!]

[allsetfree]

Weeeell... Accidents happen, I guess.

[voyeur]

You mean like defending the lives of Reapers? [He laughs.] That was pretty convincing, though! I thought that was exactly the kind of thing a kind teenaged girl might say wanting to defend Maya's life.

[voyeur]

Since we're talking early, I'd like to check in with everyone. Have you been gathering allies yet? Although we have our partners, it's important to search for others who we can rely on for different purposes.

[


look all y'all were a mess at trial, he has decided he's team leader for today because he didn't get too close to the truth or bring out a knife or lose a fucking toe.]

[grano]

Monika. The girl is strangely devoted.

[voyeur]

Is that so? She's definitely one of the stranger ones here. What kind of partnership has she offered you?

[bladeisme]

Undine asked me to watch out for her partner and said she thinks I and Akira aren't Reapers, so I'm pretty sure she counts.

[Let's see, what else...]

There's Lenka, too - He and I have been getting along pretty well, I think.

[Also it was their first trial, they're allowed to be somewhat bad at this??? it's a learning curve???]

[voyeur]

That's definitely a good place to start. Haha, no wonder this is getting to you. It must be hard to hear people call you good when you hate yourself, right?

[allsetfree]

I haven't made any enemies. [ that's about it, so far. ] That I know of.

[voyeur]

I have trust in you, Alex. [He's smiling at her.] Is there anyone you'd like to pick out as an ally?

[withsadness]

[Um excuse you Mary knew exactly what she was doing and her knife was totally not dangerous????]

I've made plenty of friends. Eleanor pinky swore that she'd be my friend even if I do things that she disagrees with. Newt let me draw him a new tattoo. Akira is Ichigo's partner, but I think he likes me, too. I'm working on Herman, and Monika seems promising, too, but I haven't decided on her yet.

[And then there's Maya too but, uh. Just counts them off on her fingers.]

[voyeur]

Nice, Mary! No surprise, you're the best at making allies here.

[HE WANTS ANOTHER HIGH FIVE TBH]

What are the difficulties with Herman and Monika?
