week 2, thursday

[vipmix]

[it's thursday evening. emotions are running high as everyone hallucinates on and off and a murder is about to happen. and here joshua is, in neku's hut, looking at it critically. how did neku get to this point.

also nanashi is there somewhere idk you can have a private convo w/ someone in the room shut up]

It's amazing how empty these look without the piano.

["joshua stop being on that" NEVER]

Congrats. You want a trophy?

[vipmix]

Hmmmm~ If you're offering to make one, I might.

[soloremix]

[he's so done]

Sure, let me just hallucinate a trophy for you. Oh wait, you can't see them. That sucks.

[vipmix]

Hee hee... Too bad. You'll just have to make it up to me later.

[you know what neku it's time for you to suffer and he's sitting on the bed now!!! i mean. he's like. perched on the very edge at a respectable distance. tfw you can't commit to gay jokes because touching another human being might kill joshua. like the fire that does kill joshua after this convo. i got lost in this bracket text. anyway WHATEVER JOSHUA IS OMINOUS I DONT KNOW]

[soloremix]

[zia, respectfully, what the fuck]

...Do you really think this'll convince people to not suspect us?

[vipmix]

[that was my stream of consciousness tag. joshua looks to the side, frowning in thought.]

I can think of a few people who might still be wary, but they would be regardless of anything we did. Everyone else seems oddly intent on believing people at their word in a game like this. [which is just odd. people can lie??? joshua first and foremost???] It's a very... emotionally-driven group.

[read: stupid]

[soloremix]

I hardly trust your ass half the time, but here we are.

[vipmix]

[HEE HEEing intensifies]

So suspicious, Neku... [though he leans back and looks at the ceiling] Hmm, not that I can say I don't understand the sentiment.

[or share it is implied, but only implied because he trusts neku to ... be himself... which is all josh needs]

[soloremix]

If it hadn't been for the fact that you've had more than enough time to off me by now, I might actually mean it.

[ah, the irony...]

1/2

[vipmix]

[ignoring the irony, neku saying he might not actually mean the lack of trust is surprising enough on its own, josh just looks kind of-- surprised, for a second]

[vipmix]

[and because he can't have that, he ruins it:]

Hmm~ Maybe I'm just biding my time so no one suspects me.

[:3]

[soloremix]

...

You mean killing me or killing someone else?

[vipmix]

Well, you, of course. I've already lulled you into a false sense of security.

[if only his tone changed when he was joking vs when he was serious]
