Not Again! With Dazai

Comments

Week 1, post-trial

[shortforever]

[Time to go find some privacy while tugging Dazai along! He's not here for makeouts though, not yet. Instead, he's ranting.]

Those fuckers just painted a huge target on my back, you know.

[shortfornow]

[ He's going to be tugged along. ]

They did. Luckily no one liked him enough to try to get revenge.

[ Or they might wind up with Chuuya and Escha dead next week. ]

[shortforever]

We'll see. I'll have to keep an eye out for a while at least. And if someone attacks me, I'm not holding back.

It's just...the votes, that's what could get me. I can't fight votes.

[shortfornow]

I wouldn't expect otherwise. Just let me know if you do wind up in any fights.

[ Or if he had to kill someone. He can help with evidence. ]

[shortforever]

Of course. I'm counting on you to help me if that happens.

[Just putting that out there again. Murder buddies.]

[shortfornow]

[ Murder buddies. With that out of the way... ]

Do you think the girl did it?

[shortforever]

Not Lili, her leg is injured. Escha...probably? The clues point to her, right?

[shortfornow]

They do point to her, but we couldn't find anything more substantial.

[ This place isn't going easy on any of them. ]

We should think about setting up traps on the cabin or taking a lesson from what Luna did.

[ Make a mess for someone to stumble in ]

[shortforever]

Honestly...yeah, that's not a bad idea. If we make a mess, they'll leave clues behind.

[shortfornow]

We can spread flour outside of the cabins and stay by the camp fire. We should get at least one or two others to stay with us.

[ To verify the effect.

Time to head back to the cabin though while people are still chatting. ]

[shortforever]

We should always stay somewhere else. So we get effects that can clear us of murdering.

[Even if being outside of the cabins is risky.

But being inside a cabin right now is okay, because it means privacy.]

...I really thought they were gonna vote for me, you know?

[shortfornow]

They did seem to be aiming for you for a bit of the trial. There being another you in another game wound up being beneficial for once.

[ Since Magnus said yeah that's pretty much Chuuya. ]

[shortforever]

It was so stupid too. Like, I had an effect. I couldn't have been the murderer. It's like they wanted it to be me over everyone else, even if the evidence didn't fit me.

[Yes, this is ironic of him to say, given Ogata's Everything.]

[shortfornow]

That might be true for some of them [ Asch ], but I don't think it was for all of them.

[ He heard Magnus say he was voting Ogata to not vote for any of the kids.

Unlocking leopard cabin and letting him in. ]

It was wasting time that could have been spent questioning the two.

[ They really didn't get to questioning them ]

[shortforever]

So was the whole marriage talk derail.

[So much time wasted, a pity.]

It just pisses me off so much! I really wanted to punch some of them, you know.

[shortfornow]

It would have been satisfying to see, but they may have voted for you then.

[ So good that he didn't in the end. Time to sit on the bed and pull out the roll of bandages he has. Look what he stole from the nurse's cabin. ]

[shortforever]

[Oho! Seeing that distracts him from his irritation.]

What're you gonna cover up? Your neck?

[shortfornow]

I went without bandages for the trial.

[ He was naked. There's a pause as he looks at the bandages and then looks at Chuuya. Patting the spot next to him. ]

Want an excuse to wrap something around my neck?

[shortforever]

Don't make it weird! I just thought that the one roll would only be enough to cover your neck.

[He does sit down next to Dazai, though.]

[shortfornow]

[ Their whole relationship is weird. ]

That's not a no, Chuuya.

[shortforever]

I'll wrap my fingers around your neck!

[shortfornow]

[ Time to lean in closer at that. ]

Really? Chuuya really does care.

[ He's already said he wouldn't mind being choked by him ]

[shortforever]

[He says this next part absolutely deadpan, as he leans back slightly.]

I changed my mind. No strangling for you.

[shortfornow]

Ah. Giving me hope only to dash it.

[ Dramatic sighing as he starts to wrap the bandages around his neck. So cruel. ]

[shortforever]

...let me do it.

[He's not going to strangle Dazai, but he'll help with the bandages at least.]
