week 0, post-execution

[teufelshund]

[ raise a glass to hanging around execution chambers after the show's over ]

Well, I don't think I have to ask what you thought of that.

[ontrend]

[kuranosuke is in the middle of putting together a fishbowl. help.]

I just speak my mind! No use playing coy about it. Bullshit is bullshit.

[teufelshund]

Well, there's something to be said for candor.

[ fuck that looks great and i want one



and actually that is also mephisto's ic reaction so

leaning in to get a look at it! ]

Ooh, that looks fun.

[ontrend]

[


honestly same]

You want one? I can make a second, no problem.

[teufelshund]

Yes I do, thank you!

[ doesn't know for sure exactly what's in it, doesn't care, it's got candy and that's what matters most ]

[ontrend]

You got it!

[two fishbowls, coming right up! kuranosuke will pass mephisto's over to him once it's finished.]

Man, it's too bad they don't have any of this stuff back on the other island. That shitty beer's definitely getting a little old at this point.

[it's been one week.]

[teufelshund]

Another murder but this time it's just to get us back to the superior bars.

[ takes a sip! ]

...Oh, that's disgustingly sweet. I love it.

week 4, thursday evening

[teufelshund]

[ me looking at that last thread like, there was somewhere specific i'd intended to go with that conversation and then i forgot what it was and never remembered again

anyway

mephisto will indeed drop by the bar a little later — he's pretty sure kuranosuke will be there for a while, so no big rush.

he'll take a seat next to him when he arrives. ]

Feeling better?

[ontrend]

[help]

Ehhhh. I'm less sober, so, y'know. It's a start.

[teufelshund]

It is!

[ ...he's just going to order a beer because he doesn't feel like dealing with the effects of the other drinks. ]

A little awkward coming back from one of those things as the least injured person, hm?

[ontrend]

No kidding. I'm still not sure how it worked out that way.

[me, britt, screaming every time i rolled high with the dice]

[teufelshund]

Guess we just got lucky.

[ ...he also just like, deliberately walked away from some things, but, you know. ]

So, what happened? Hopefully it's easier to summarize than last week's fiasco was.

[ontrend]

...short version is we had to go on an expedition to bring a bunch of stuff back. Except it was dangerous and there were monsters around that would attack us, because of course there were.

week 6, monday morning

[teufelshund]

[ okay well fuck being outside because it's freezing, so mephisto's exploring the resort instead, and is currently looking at all the decor choices that sure were made in the sitting room.

catching any movement out of the corner of his eye, he sighs. ]

Oh, buzz off, Kringle.

[ontrend]

...the name's Kuranosuke, actually.

[yo.]

[teufelshund]

[ turns... ]

Ah— sorry. Thought Santa was back for more.

[ontrend]

...Santa, huh.

[WELL, HE SUPPOSES THAT TRACKS GIVEN THE WINTER WONDERLAND THIS WEEK?]

The hell did he do to end up in hell? Too much breaking and entering? Exploitation of elf labor?

[teufelshund]

Invasion of privacy from watching so many people when they're sleeping and tracking their every move? All seem like valid reasons!

...Honestly, though, I think it's just a weird hallucinatory effect from one of those new drinks.

[ontrend]

That would make more sense, yeah.

week 7, saturday

[ontrend]

[i keep thinking about how kuranosuke was like, eh! mephisto's just some funny old guy who likes milfs! weird, never introducing him to my mom, but manageable! ...and then he found out mephisto killed kon and framed tuuri and instantly became an anti. i'm so sad.

anyway. here they are at the afterparty. kuranosuke is ... what's the opposite of pregaming. postgaming? he is postgaming the party, nursing some drink or another which will have the effect that he doesn't just immediately get up and leave (i do not know which combination of drinks would achieve this, but it's happening). he's also got a glass of water, though. he doesn't want to deal with a hangover!]

...man, am I ever glad that's over.

[teufelshund]

[ alas, while he is still all of that, he is also a (real) demon. rip.

mephisto has probably switched to hot tea or something at this point. what a day. he looks over with a smile when kuranosuke speaks up, even though he's like, 95% sure he's only talking to him because of a drink effect. but it was pretty hilarious last time that happened, so he's here for it. ]

Likewise! And I imagine your liver feels much the same... the real hero of all of this.

[ takes a sip of tea. ]

Going to start weaning yourself back off now?

[ontrend]

Oh, yeah, my liver worked overtime. It deserves a medal.

[bro, please. he sips at his water.]

That's the plan, because it also deserves a rest. I prooobably can't double-die of alcohol poisoning here, because hell is where the party is, apparently, but I can definitely die of alcohol poisoning when I get back, and who wants to do that? Not this boy!

[teufelshund]

[ if only he had a gold star sticker to offer it. ]

I think that's a good move. How embarrassing would it be if you finally got out of here just to die like that and come back a few weeks later?

[ontrend]

Right?! Like, hell no! I'm not clawing my way up outta hell just to end up right back here all over again!

[teufelshund]

Glad to hear it! I'd hate to see the fruit of our valiant team effort go to waste.
