[ ..A sigh, somewhere approaching relief. She returns to her novel, sat out by the lake. ]

[ ..ear flick. Are those steps? Why is someone out this late. ]

C0MM STUFF.

... um. nothing of your concern i believe. don't worry yourself, i suppose.

... unfortunate

doesn't that require . having friends

⠀ ⠀⠀/ /⠀I usually don't like bringing things like this into roleplay spaces, but this is a very important and vital post to pass around, especially if you are in America. ⠀⠀This bill will not protect children ; it's silencing victims. ⠀

[ ..ear flick. But no comment. All she really knows is that there's shouting going on. ]

[ They happily follow her up, trying to match her energy. ] [ Well the decor and the coffin wasn't. the most comforting. ] [ It felt a bit like an omen. Unsure what kind. At least they couldn't smell right now. ]

{ NC } you know i think i may be in the single most concerning company possible. however . ☝️ i will be so very pleasant anyway.

[ ... ..honestly if she felt at all like she wouldn't get mauled for saying it. She would also be asking if she could have some blood. ]

" (..Actually. I should probably..) " [ . . . She makes the entire trek to her manor and back, before simply setting a bag of fruit snacks on the ground in front of her. ]

" I- It really isn't..! I'm.. acquainted with plenty, I think..? (Online, atleast..) "

" I???- I- IT WOULDN'T BE A PROBLEM?? IF YOU WERE?? "

" (...) " [ considering this. ] [ just. slowly bringing her hands over her mouth. Hm . ]

[ . . . ] [ mmmildly concerned smile back. she actively refuses to smile open-mouthed fun fact. ]

" (..oka y . i. ah.) (i am. going. to. trust you. then .) "

[ ... blink blink. ] " (...) (..why are. ) (. . what did . ) "

" (...) (w. why do you feel the need to clarify that . ) "

[ holly. ] i'm not going to say i've thought about kuri drinking susie's blood before but

" (th. do not do that please.) "

" (I do not want anyone in my skin? What? What are all of you on about I am . Legitimately somewhat concerned.) (Frankly I- Hardly wish to be in my skin myself???) " [ ^ sure that's a normal thing to feel ]

[ holly. ] i love how much i've implied that kuri's default means of showing affection is just. borderline parallel play. she sits there and does whatever you're doing but she doesn't actually say that's what she's doing or why.

oh, i forgot! love makes you stupid! ( more info below. )

[ holly. ] glancing at how fun the ddlc verse has been and how much i kinda wanna write sayori and then remembering that satomi exists. i will consider it

// played around more with the dark world monika design what do we think yall

[ holly. ] random fun fact. it was preboot content but. kuri has canonically drank someone's blood before. and is canonically very very curious about it considering she hasn't now. like what happened there she'd very much have to be talked into it by the receiving party but. she's curious

[ holly. ] she's so good at this

[ holly. ] i don't know why kuri basically mirroring a natsuki line is really cute to me but it is.

[ holly. ] woman who knows Nothing about that situation but just sees someone who she thinks is remotely like her and immediately goes "i cannot let the world hurt you like it's hurt me and i cannot allow that to continue happening if it already has. i don't know what i can even do but i will. -

{ NC } i . i say this with all of the . um. platonic. ness. that i can muster. and i wish to clarify that simply because i am aware of the connotations that the phrase tends to carry. but . i . ah. i could. fix. her. (<= Cannot)

[ holly. ] funny ass fact i just remembered but. a small joke that i turned into a canon thing is that kuri is Mildly Into the qc's uniform for reasons beyond even her. in previous rp stuff this literally lead to her fumbling into calling a lady beautiful and then scampering out of the diner

[ holly. ] tired and miserable and this stupid chudlet comforts me so i may be putting a lot more of my focus into her for a little bit

[ holly. ] oomf. oomf do not fascinate me with the concept of kuri yuri interaction. ohhhh my god . autism hadron collider

" (..???) " [ Blink. Blink. ]

" (Th- That would not be a..???-) "

" (You all alarm me.) "

" Wh- *Why* are we assaulting one another???- " [ Blink. Blinkblink. ]

[ ..ear flick. Whhhhat is she overhearing what. ]

[ holly. ] what am i MISSING i'm getting concerned at this point is everyone okay

wₐₛ ₜₕₐₜ ₛcᵣₑₐₘᵢₙg

[ holly. ] this thing is autistic if you didn't know .

[ ... After a brief delay, there's the sound of someone humming along under their breath, nearby. Constantly stumbling, hardly able to keep the sound steady, but they are, absentminded as it is. ]

[ holly. ] oomf t)(at's a good note actually. let me steal t)(at.

" (..g- good morning..) "

[ holly. ] falls unconscious

" Someone is W- WHAT??- "
