Not quite a Weird Sex Thing BUT-- [Early-mid Week 4]

Okay, so. Um.

We broke into this-- Edward, Yakumo guy's room, and we found his diary. Or, diaries, plural, he's got two of them.

[It takes a bit of effort, but a livestream flickers into existence, and it shows stocky, stubby hands thumbing rapidly through a journal, almost faster than the eye can follow; Barry's already read this one. In the corner of his vision, Yukino is visible, but the stream flickers out again very quickly as Barry looks up.]

And, uh- one of them isn't very useful, from his first year, it's just-- he's just gushing about how cool Majesty's is, he's making a map with someone... and also hates Them, capital T, whoever they even are. This might be the, uh, angels? Cos those things really are everywhere, b-but it could also be those orphans? Wait, he keeps referring to them by name, maybe not, but I mean, potentially...?

[...he got distracted.]


B-but, uh. The second diary, that's where shit gets real juicy. Like, both of these are full of, like, law reforms and shit, but this one starts going really in-depth on how to implement them? A-and other laws and stuff he thinks oughta be passed. Also he hates Zedward. And even just being around other students in general. Also also, uh.

He seems pretty sure that Yukino is the sabotager. So. Maybe that's not him?

I was told that he really hates Phillip and some friends of his, so maybe they are "Them"?

[personal profile] finalizes 2018-04-07 10:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Does it not mention anything specific about "Them" at all?

...Maybe I can annoy him into giving me more information.

[He tends to be good at that, if he pointedly tries.]

HOW OLD IS THIS PERSON?


.....ALSO DO THE DIARIES HAVE A LOT OF EXCLAMATION MARKS?

[personal profile] likescats 2018-04-08 04:51 pm (UTC)(link)
FAIR POINT.

AH WELL. I SUPPOSE IT WAS TOO MUCH TO HOPE FOR.


[He seems to realize that an explanation might be in order.]

WHERE I COME FROM. THE USE OF MULTIPLE EXCLAMATION MARKS TENDED TO MEAN THE PERSON'S SANITY WAS OPEN FOR DEBATE. THE MORE THERE WERE, THE MORE LIKELY THEY WERE A BIT OFF.

THERE WAS A MASKED MAN IN AN OPERA HOUSE WHO HAD BEEN FOND OF THEM IN THE NOTES HE LEFT BEHIND. THOUGH THAT INCIDENT HAD MORE OF THE MURDERING TYPE OF ACCIDENTS RATHER THEN SIMPLY SABOTAGE.

Oh. I, um, didn't recognize them?

Also I haven't really spent much time around the school...

That's really kind of an understatement.

I'm not sure why, but I think the word means something totally different in my world than anywhere else.

In my world, they're giant alien monsters with blood type blue, an absolute terror field, a core, and an internal super solenoid engine, who can regenerate from non-fatal wounds, and, um, exist to destroy humankind?

Yeah. Um. They're fine. I'm sure they're fine without me.

[personal profile] whatspringislike 2018-04-09 02:16 pm (UTC)(link)
It's not like I had a choice! And there's another full class of potential pilot candidates! And Asuka and Rei! So, they'll still be able to keep everyone safe.

They don't need me. They won't miss me. Everything's fine.


[This freakout has been pending for three months, congratulations for being at ground zero when it happened.]

Angels.

[His voice may be flat, but he's totally judging the very existence of angels. Still.]

Is Yukino the saboteur, though?

[Just to make sure.]
smokeandcarbs: (upward)

[personal profile] smokeandcarbs 2018-04-08 09:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Good. That chandelier ruined my wine.
razorblade_empress: (zz P1 Exasperated)

[personal profile] razorblade_empress 2018-04-09 09:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, we can't have that, can we.
smokeandcarbs: (sideways)

[personal profile] smokeandcarbs 2018-04-11 01:12 am (UTC)(link)
You two wouldn't be such bullies if you knew how hard I was trying to get drunk.

[Which is a little ironic, considering he's a pathetic lightweight. Tragically, the chandelier fell before he could get a single drop in. ]

Anyway, sounds like you've got the wrong guy. Unless he doesn't know he's the saboteur. Does his utopia's implementation require any violence? Maybe a coup d'etat?
smokeandcarbs: (that is something)

[personal profile] smokeandcarbs 2018-04-12 01:44 am (UTC)(link)
There are worse things than pretending to be a teenager.

[He may be a LITTLE DEFENSIVE about this very particular subject. Sometimes you just happen to have a best friend who redid high school all over again for your sake. Love knows no boundaries, or so they say.]

Which brings us back to where we started. [That sucks. He was hoping to get over with this Jaunt as soon as possible.] I still believe the saboteur is one of us, though. That would match the previous Jaunts' pattern.
highsteaks: (pocky)

[personal profile] highsteaks 2018-04-08 10:08 pm (UTC)(link)
He's definitely up to something shady, though, even if he isn't the Dark Sabotager. Why else would he be disguising himself as a kid?





[wait. wait, wait, wait, wait, WAIT.]

Hey. Does anyone know if you can have more than one Dark Lord at a time?
likescats: (THAT WAS A PUNE)

[personal profile] likescats 2018-04-08 10:14 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh hey something he might know about.

WHERE I COME FROM, THERE ARE GENERALLY QUITE A FEW AROUND.... THOUGH THEY USUALLY STAY OUT OF EACH OTHERS PLANS IF THEY CAN. CHRONIC BACKSTABBING IS SOMETHING THEY ARE KNOWN FOR.
highsteaks: (gotcha)

[personal profile] highsteaks 2018-04-08 10:17 pm (UTC)(link)
So even if he's not the Dark Sabotager, he can still be a Dark Edward, then.
likescats: (NOW THAT IS CONFUSING)

[personal profile] likescats 2018-04-09 12:43 pm (UTC)(link)
DARK EDWARD? AH HIS NAME. I SUPPOSE IT IS POSSIBLE. IF HE'S A STUDENT HE COULD BE A DARK LORD IN TRAINING.

OR....I DON'T SUPPOSE ANYONE HERE HAS A POWER TO TELL IF PEOPLE ARE BEING CONTROLLED MAGICALLY?
highsteaks: (Default)

[personal profile] highsteaks 2018-04-15 07:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Um. I don't. I dunno about anyone else, though.
likescats: (RATHER OMINOUS)

[personal profile] likescats 2018-04-15 09:30 pm (UTC)(link)
I WONDER.

MAGIC ISN'T SOMETHING I NORMALLY HAVE TO USE. SO IT'S ALL RATHER NEW TO ME.
highsteaks: (Default)

[personal profile] highsteaks 2018-04-16 04:24 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah. This stuff is really weird when you first encounter it.
likescats: (I SEE YOU)

[personal profile] likescats 2018-04-16 01:23 pm (UTC)(link)
YES. THE MAGIC FROM MY WORLD IS A GREAT DEAL DIFFERENT AND...WELL THEY TEND NOT TO USE IT MUCH....IT ATTRACTS THINGS.

THE MOST I USUALLY HAVE TO DEAL WITH IS WHEN THE WIZARDS USE THE RITE OF ASHKENTE TO SUMMON ME. THEY ALWAYS HAVE A KNACK AT PICKING THE MOST INCONVENIENT MOMENT.
highsteaks: (think)

[personal profile] highsteaks 2018-04-21 05:18 am (UTC)(link)
Like when you're in the bath?
likescats: (WAITING FOR SOMEONE)

[personal profile] likescats 2018-04-21 02:23 pm (UTC)(link)
IF SUCH THINGS APPLIED TO ME THEN I WOULD NOT BE SURPRISED. IT IS USUALLY WHEN I'M IN THE MIDDLE OF SOMETHING. I WAS AT A PARTY ONCE. ANOTHER TIME I WAS COOKING.

Though to be fair, that one had kind of been needed.

THEY DON'T GENERALLY USE THE RITE UNLESS THEY NEED ANSWERS TO WHATEVER CATASTROPHE IS HAPPENING OR WILL BE HAPPENING ON THE WORLD AT THE MOMENT.

[Oh right, Westerners shower.]

Still, that's really bad timing.
likescats: (I SEE YOU)

[personal profile] likescats 2018-05-01 01:53 am (UTC)(link)
[Yeah...let's go with that.]

YES. IT'S LESS ANNOYING THESE DAYS AT LEAST. THEY ALWAYS USED TO TRY AND GET DRAMATIC ABOUT IT. CALLING DOWN THE POWERS, YOU ARE BOUND TO THIS CIRCLE AND SO ON AND SO FORTH. EVERYTHING HAD TO BE OVER THE TOP.

[Death you can't talk about drama. Half the things you own have skulls on them.]

THOUGH I DO THINK A FEW OF THE SMARTER ONES REALIZE THAT I ONLY STAY IN THE CIRCLE TO BE POLITE.

[Probably because of that time he appeared behind them and asked who they were waiting for in the circle.]

While we're on the topic of Edward, I tried a Sift on the portrait of the Queen - for those who don't speak Grid, that's basically looking for patterns in data, or in this case an object - and it turns out he really does use his allotted Stare Adoringly At The Queen time to, well, stare adoringly at the Queen. Occasionally, there's also horrified looks and yelling, which based on the glitter hanging in the air on those days is presumably because someone glitterbombed the painting again. Which is pretty much the opposite of exciting, I know.

However, the glitter itself eventually rearranged itself to spell out the words "FUTURE LORD PROTECTOR OF BRITAIN." Make of that what you will.
