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!

[he nearly breaks his knitting needle]

Parents who don't fucking want their kids are the worst. Fun fact, that's the majority of them.

[voyeur]

[casually watching mary unlock max's tragic backstory tbh]

[concertmaster]

[fuck you he spends the entirety of summer camp telling the counselors his parents don't give a shit it's not his real tragic backstory!!!

i mean it's part of it it's just usually no one believes it]

[voyeur]

[shhh max shhhh

only deets now]

[concertmaster]

[when is izaya dying]

[voyeur]

[any time now, you cowards!

PULL THE TRIGGER]

[withsadness]

It's really that common?

[That's sad to hear. Ib's parents sounded nice! They took her to an art gallery! And...probably other fun things?]

My father left me behind, too. Just not at a camp.

[concertmaster]

[oh. right. he read her file, but honestly, after 46 of them, it's hard to keep track. he stops looking angry and just starts looking sad]

Sucks, doesn't it? [sighs] Come over here, I'll show you how to do this shit. Knit camp and rope camp were some of the only useful shit that place ever taught me.

[withsadness]

[Mary's face brightens immediately. Sucks or not, it means that now she gets to climb(?) onto the top of Moyai to the best of her ability so she can watch and learn how to knit...by the master! The master of all things camp.]

I didn't know there were so many different kinds of camp. It isn't too hard to learn?

[It's fine even if it is. She's a diligent practice--comes from having absolutely nothing better to do with your time.]

[concertmaster]

There's a million different kinds of camp when you're running a scam. Anyway, this shit's easy. It was a waste of my goddamn day.

[he hands her the knitting needles and some yarn and i don't know how to knit]

Here, like this.

[withsadness]

[It's okay we can bullshit this together because I also have no idea.

Mary takes the needles and the yarn and follows his very elaborately laid out instructions. Her hands are a little clumsy, but she's getting down the steps, at least.]

This decoy is gonna be the best.

[Because it's now going to be BUILT WITH FRIENDSHIP.]

[concertmaster]

[it's not like mary needs one tbh but whatever? it's fine? this is fine.]

It's gonna be shit at first, that's how learning anything goes. You suck, and then either you get better or you dive headfirst into that pile of suck and choke on it.

[why is he this way]

I don't have the right yarn color for you, but whatever, it's the same principle even if it looks off. It won't fool anyone for long even when it's done, but it's usually enough for you to have run off and them to look like a complete moron.
