Day 11

[pandatreasure]

BOOOOOOOOOOOOORING!

[Ah yes, there's the beautiful sound of Raquelle's voice ringing out over the loudspeakers to wake everyone the fuck up this fine and lovely morning. Don'tcha just love that raccoon screeching.]

I get it, I get it, you're all fat and happy after the holidays. Well, no more of that, that's for sure! You can trust us on that, you sure can, nyehehehehe! 'til then...Oooh, maybe we will have some corpses to mess with if you guys don't hurry your butts up.

Nyehehehehe!

[Aaaand with that, she's gone. What the hell is she talking about? Maybe take some time to check out all the cool new areas that have been found overnight and find out...]


((Content Warning: Investigation portions of this post are going to contain eye trauma/horror. The tag in which it actually appears will be marked in the subject, but please be aware of this before choosing to participate in the investigation!

For this investigation! because there's very little to find, there are going to be two toplevels for the locations containing stuff. Please give precedence to people who didn't find anything last time! Once the appropriate discoveries have been made, feel free to involve others in each thread.

[DAZAI U SHIT

Actually is he going to try climbing the gate again?]

[cw_suicide]

[.... maaaaaaybe?

ALSO WHAT DID YOU EXPECT HERE?]

[flamingprick]

[Fair point.

So Rin will just. Jump up and grab onto Dazai's back, like how a kid would get a piggyback ride.

Enjoy trying to climb with the extra weight of an entire person on you, Dazai.]

[cw_suicide]

[ARE YOU KIDDING? HE'S FUCKING WEAK. DOESN'T EVEN LIFT, BRUH.

down he goes again.]

[flamingprick]

Wow, you're not strong at all, are you?

[That's okay Rin can pick up whole cars, someone Dazai's size is nbd

So he's just going to scoop up Dazai and carry him bridal-style, if he can get away with it without Dazai getting away.]

[cw_suicide]

[................. what is even happening NO?!

except he mostly just stays still for a solid minute before kicking his feet to get them on the ground again: MAYBE USE HIS 5'11" HEIGHT TO HIS ADVANTAGE?]

[flamingprick]

[Dude Rin's only like 3 inches shorter than that.

Also Rin probably got to the stairs at the very least before the kicking happened. So he'll just let Dazai down by the stairs.]

Oh good, it looks like you're ready to walk. Let's get going then, we'll see if you can get up the stairs or not.

[cw_suicide]

[he can totally use the stairs!

ONLY SWAYING A LITTLE!]

Who said you could boss me around. I'm the adult here.

[flamingprick]

Doesn't matter. Your life is mine now. I gotta keep an eye on you and make sure you're not being too self-destructive.

[cw_suicide]

... eh?

Seriously, get a better hobby.

[flamingprick]

Nah. You offered up your life to me earlier, remember? So I'm taking that deal. But I'm not gonna kill you yet, so you'll just have to put up with me until I decide to actually do it.

[Don't make deals with demons without understanding the consequences, Dazai.]

[cw_suicide]

[THAT WASN'T THE DEAL????]

... are you stupid? I was just looking for an easy way to check out, that's all.

[flamingprick]

Hey, it's not my fault you didn't specify a time limit. So now you get to wait.

[He gets to wait until, ideally, he is really old and almost dead anyway.]

[cw_suicide]

I didn't agree to it, so I can do it whenever I'd like.

[YOU DON'T CONTROL ME.]

[flamingprick]

You definitely did. The only reason there's not some blood magic bullshit involved is because a lot of my demon powers are blocked right now.

[So yeah, Dazai's right. There actually isn't a contract between them officially. But Rin still counts it.]

[cw_suicide]

[even if they were, that shit possibly might not work on Mr. Power Negator.]

... you're just making my point for me.

[climbing out of the trapdoor now]

[flamingprick]

[PSH AS IF NORMAL HUMANS HAVE POWERS

But yeah he'll follow Dazai out. No point in being down there now.]

Fine, fine, excuse me for valuing your life.

[But hey, he got Dazai to not break into the wine cellar for now, so that's kind of a win?]

But if you change your mind, I'll still be around. You'd like working with me, I think.

[cw_suicide]

[someone's bound to give him booze. i mean. he got drunk SOMEHOW, after all.]

You don't even know what kind of life you're putting value in. Seems like a poor way to invest.

[flamingprick]

[Yes, but small victories.]

That life kept me from making what would have been one of the worst decisions I could've possibly made. A decision that would've gotten me killed, even, since there's no way in hell I wouldn't have been caught.

I dunno about you, but that sounds like a pretty valuable life to me.

[cw_suicide]

[you're so wrong.

but arguing is exhausting. so he just. doesn't.]

[flamingprick]

[That's okay, he can argue that point another time.]

[cw_suicide]

[nah. there's no point. Rin's just wrong.

meandering to the kitchen--

...


remembers the thing in his pocket.

pats at coat pocket.]

[flamingprick]

[...okay I'm curious, what does Dazai have in his pocket.]

cw: eye squick

[cw_suicide]

[... Ichigo's coffee-boiled eye.

at least it's in paper towels?]

Ah, right. I forgot about that.

[flamingprick]

[WHAT THE FUCK?!

no wait, actually:]

WHAT THE FUCK?!
