[i'll figure out something to put here eventually]

Week 0: Monday

[airshipped]

[It's sometime in the afternoon, probably. It's hard to tell what it is when the windows don't seem particularly intent showing any consistent place or time of day.

For now, Logy's found himself in Escha's room.]

How are you doing with everything that's happened so far?

[applechemist]

[ It's nice and tidy in here! There are some post-it notes on the wall, though. ]

Not too bad, I guess... I mean, bad because we're stuck here... And because of that recording, and the video thing.

But, still okay, somehow. What about you?

[airshipped]

[Nice and tidy! At least he doesn't feel like he has to start cleaning immediately.

He's going to go look at the sticky notes.]

I felt worse when we first arrived. So I've at least got that going for me. Are you still feeling some nausea?

It's like it comes and goes.

[applechemist]

[ There are post it notes with a transcript of the recording from today, others that have a transcript of the thing that Junpei read to everyone today. And then ones that just list: "ghosts, demons, a psychic, memory loss, multiverse."

So things are going extremely normal in Escha's room, obviously. ]

Yeah, it's kind of off and on. I'll feel totally fine for a while and then suddenly feel awful. I wish I could just synthesize some medicine.

Week 0: Wednesday

[applechemist]

[ Well today is terrible. And if she were thinking clearly, Escha would probably go straight to her room to take a hot shower to warm up and finish getting dressed.

But she spots Logy, and the first thing she wants to do right now is whine. She wants to have a nice, refreshing complain!!! So she walks up to him, shivering and completely soaked. ]

Logyyyyy. [ Waaaah today sucks, waaaah ]

[airshipped]

[Hello Escha, guess who else is drenched? It's Logy. Turns out fountains are very messy when you have to deal with blockages in them.

At least he's got all his layers on, but Escha...]

What happened?

[applechemist]

[ She would fuss more about him being all wet, but. Same? So. ]

We had to melt a bunch of ice, and then it burst. W-what about you? [ She's not sure she wants to know, honestly. ]

[airshipped]

It... burst?

We had to fix the fountain in the lobby. [you know, the one that looks like a orgy. that one.]

Week 0: Friday

[airshipped]

[Logy's made his way up to the lounge area. Escha's hard to miss, so when he sees her, he walks over.]

How are you holding up?

[applechemist]

[ It takes her a moment to find the words. ]

Not great.

I didn't have to see anything too awful first hand, but... It doesn't change the situation.

[airshipped]

I don't blame you.

There are at least two people dead, and we have two other people missing. The situation is bad.

[applechemist]

And whoever did it... We don't even know if they were themselves or not.

[ Since, you know, possession is on the table. ]

So what are we supposed to do tomorrow?

Week 0: Saturday

[applechemist]

[ Hhhhh. ]

I can't believe she would do that...

[airshipped]

[He is!! So tired!!!]

I can't either. I know there isn't a lot to do here, but summoning a demon...?

[It sounds so fake, but it's so real.]

[applechemist]

And for a reason like that...

[ Hhhhhhhhhx2 ]

[airshipped]

Now we have to deal with demons. I don't think they're going to go away so easily.

Week 1: Monday

[airshipped]

[After they've gotten enough research done, it's time to actually apply it.

The sex was... well, it was awkward, but it's both of their first times. Clumsy and awkward but they're both doing their best, so in the end it was alright.

Around his neck, Escha can see the words Caused and airship explosion.]

We should be good to go for the rest of the week.

[applechemist]

[ Escha is a bit quiet, now that the deed has been done. Distracted by her own thoughts, maybe. It takes her a moment to catch herself and reply, glancing over at Logy. ]

Yeah. We should be... Protected.

[ Whatever was on her mind wasn't the words on him, but her eyes land on them, and that certainly doesn't make her... more talkative. As for her own "sin," at the curve of her hip is: Caused ruins to collapse. But she doesn't feel nearly as bad about it, so it isn't bothering her much. ]

[airshipped]

... What's on your mind, Escha?

[Probably a lot. He doesn't think either of them were expecting this kind of situation. But they need to do something to protect each other, don't they? If it's having sex, then they'll have to accept it.]

Week 1: Saturday post trial

[applechemist]

[ You know what, Escha is just. Walking into Logy's chest wherever he's at.

Hug please. ]

[airshipped]

[It sure was a lot to deal with in one day. The Saturdays just don't let up.

He wraps his arms around her and strokes her back, unsure if there's anything he can say.]

[applechemist]

[ Her voice comes out super muffled because she doesn't draw back at all to talk. ]

It was for such a stupid reason.

[ Not that there are good reasons for murder, probably? ]

week 2: Wednesday

[applechemist]

[ At some point during the otherwise empty showing of Shrek Titanic - probably Escha's third viewing of it, by now - she and Logy's arms brushed against each other on the arm rest. And, well, you know. Normal coworker stuff, etc. Good thing the arm rests can be pushed up? Maybe they should have been in a bed instead of chairs. Oh well, too late now.

Escha awkwardly... Climbs down from Logy's lap and sits down in her own seat beside him, adjusting her rumpled clothes and smoothing her skirt out. This is fine. ]

Um... Sorry.

[ For how abrupt all of that was, for one. For kissing him, for two. They hadn't kissed the first time. ]

[airshipped]

[This is fine, honestly. Logy's never minded being with Escha. Even this is just... it's just part of their normal coworker duties to try and keeping each other alive.]

I... I don't mind.

[The kiss or the suddenness.]

[applechemist]

[ She usually thinks of it that way... But the suddenness of it has her reeling a bit. ]

Really?

Even though we - [ she falters, but powers through it ] - kissed?
