week 2, monday

[usogi]

[we're playing FAMILY NOW. maybe they all entered the house at the same time? that's how we're deciding that we're playing family? but senri is already inside and offering up a big smile - ]

I think these houses are for us?

There's safety in numbers, so why don't we stick together?

[he actually trusts everyone who is coming in so far,]

[frilly]

I don't know if that rule applies in this contest, but...

[ Well, she's mostly just teasing, because she's happily following along. And after a beat, she rethinks joking about such a downer subject. ]

B-but, um, I think we'll be okay together!

[digestif]

[ majima and mizuki were having a productive investigation thank you very much!! maybe!! the productive part is up for debate. ]

Eh, way out here? It's a little far from the temple, isn't it?

[ dubious... ]

[haw]

The more outta the way we are, the more effort a killer'll have to put in to find us, yeah?

[ but the more he looks around the neighborhood, the more uneasy he grows. as he places his hand on the doorknob of the house that—unbeknownst to them—senri and madoka have claimed only moments before, he mutters, ]

Still, when I told Patience-han I wanted to live somewhere I could be free, this ain't what I had in mind at all...

[ he opens! the door! ]

[usogi]

[i hate how excited senri is when he glances over and sees - ]

Majima-san!! [HE LOVES U] And Mizuki-san too?

[this is FAMILY TIME NOW]

Ah, it's just me and Madopyon if you wanna come in!

[frilly]

[ Madoka hurries to give a polite bow to Mizuki and Majima! ]

It feels weird to welcome people into a house that isn't mine... B-but please - come in.

i misunderstood the convo DISREGARD WHAT MIZUKI SAID BEFORE....

[digestif]

Oh. Majima-kun, you should have knocked.

[ tut tut! (they're teasing.) Mizuki waves at the two of them, all smiles. ]

Nito-kun and Kaname-chan, hello. What are you two doing out here?

SAME IM A DUMB WHO CANT READ WOW

[haw]

[ WHAT ARE THE CHANCES... all of his favorite (?) people... ]

Whoa—wasn't expectin' there to be anyone out here already! If ya already claimed this house, I can go find another.

EVERYTHING IS FINE

[usogi]

You don't have to - I don't mind sharing. Madopyon and I were just looking for a place to sleep since the hostels disappeared. I like this place? There's separate rooms?

[also like

there's a tv?????]

IT'S FINE IT'S FINE IT'S FINE IT'S FINE

[frilly]

[ Madoka gestures in the direction of the separate rooms when Senri mentions them. See! Plenty of room. ]

It might be nice to have some adults around, actually...!

[digestif]

Wait, we're jumping to living together just like that?! Actually, I've just been sleeping in the parlor...

[ suddenly, they feel like they've been living a very low-class lifestyle... ]

[haw]

Wha—whaddaya mean "together"?!

[ ????????????? ]

I'm too young to be worryin' about domestic life!

[usogi]

[senri takes a moment to glance at mizuki-san because what? how is such a beautiful person just sleeping in the parlor,,

but then he turns to majima and just laughs]

Madopyon has a point. I'd actually kinda feel better if we had Majima-san around, and Mizuki-san can take one of the rooms too.

[he doesn't mind the couch?]

[frilly]

[ she laughs, too. ]

I don't think you have to worry about it getting domestic... This place might only last a week.

And we're all just friends, right? [ because friends is different from family! :) ]

[digestif]

[ bahahaha. They clap Majima on the back. ]

That's right! We're friends.

[ despite SOMEONE'S rude rejections. Mizuki wanders into the room a little more, glancing around curiously. Frankly, they'd feel better staying closer to the action, but... ]

You do have a point. Safety in numbers, right?

[haw]

[ he lets out an "oof" as mizuki thumps him, then sighs as all the others insist. he's usually better at not folding under pressure, but... ]

Fine, fine. But if I hear any of ya—[ POINTED STARE AT MIZUKI ]—callin' me otousan, I'm kickin' ya out.

[usogi]

[oh my god. he's laughing]

Doesn't it feel like Majima-san would fit better as a Tou-chan? Papa? [papajima, if you would.]

And Mizuki-san already feels like a super responsible parental figure to have around. And Madopyon is everyone's treasured younger sister!

[senri should stop maybe]

Ahaha, no way, that'd be too funny! I don't think we have to do that.

[they're going to do that]

[frilly]

E-eh? [ Madoks flusters trying to decide what dad name would fit Majima best... ] I think I would use Otou-san...! Maybe!

But I'm more used to being a big sister, you know?

[ oh no ]

[digestif]

[ these two... they must be lonely. Mizuki laughs again, sounding amused, and, perhaps, slightly bewildered. ]

Come on. Aren't you two getting a little carried away?

[ ... ]

You'll make Papa angry.

[ yeah they can't resist though ]

[haw]

[ immediately turns around and attempts to leave the house ]

[usogi]

[sdlfkjsdlkfjsdflkjl

senri's cracking up but also like. running to try to catch majima's arm]

Majima-san, have a sense of humor please....!

[frilly]

[ trying to hide her laughter behind her hand. not really succeeding. ]

Maybe different nicknames, then. [ Senri, you're good at nicknames! ]

[digestif]

[ everyone laughing at majima together... he truly brings the people together... also he can't really get mad at Mizuki if the other two are laughing, too. Score!! ]

Hahaha. Sorry, Majima-kun. We don't really need nicknames, I think. [ a beat. ] Oh, but if Kaname-chan wants to give me a nickname, I'd be happy with it!

[haw]

[ he allows himself... to be pulled back... but he's pouting because he can't fight :( his family :( ]

This ain't fair, the three of ya are gangin' up on me.

[usogi]

Ahaha, it's just because you're such a good sport, Majima-san. It's just for a week - promise we won't be too much of a headache!

[can he really promise that though]

And I wanna hear what nickname Madopyon comes up with too!

[senri is good with nicknames but he's also not cute enough to dare,]
