[Day 308-309, closed and open] They say ignorance is bliss.

Who: Ibuki Mioda, Ippo, Colin, and others???
Open: Open and closed like a door that has no idea if it's a jar or not.
When: The night of day 308, and day 309
Where: Everywhere
What: Ibuki remembers things
Format: Action but ok with changing
Warnings: Dangan Ronpa spoilers, bad feels and probably lots of mood whiplash because Ibuki. Also, ice cream cake.

[Locked to Ippo, night of 308]
[At their house, Ibuki can be found sitting on the couch and clutching a pillow to herself; clad in her pajamas. Her piercings were already taken out for the day, though she hadn't let her hair down just yet.]

[She felt sick after everything she remembered... and she was worried. It'd be well within Ippo's right to turn his back on her if she told him. But ... still, he had to know, right? It wasn't right to keep that from him. She took in a shuddering breath, waiting for her boyfriend to return.]


[Open to all, day 309]
[The next day, Ibuki can be found doing her usual duties around the bastion. Cooking, taking care of the cows, and ... napping?]

[She took naps now and then, sure, but usually never where people can generally stumble across her. For that matter, her naps don't seem to last long as she suddenly awakes with a jerk and a miserable expression.]

[Also notable is the fact that she hasn't bothered to do up her hair or put in her piercings...]

[At some point during the day, she can be found going to the smithy to hand back the revolver she'd gotten there some time ago. Maya was long gone... and then Raile disappeared recently, too. And besides that, she wasn't sure she could trust herself with a weapon anymore... not with those memories floating around in her mind.]


[Locked to Colin, day 309]
[Eventually, she'll be wandering into Colin's workshop...]

[Ibuki's not looking any better than earlier that day]

If you're comfortable talking about it, I'm definitely open to hearing about it. It sounds complex.

[At least complex enough to be worth his attention...]
freedom_engineer: (Impassive)

[personal profile] freedom_engineer 2015-05-14 09:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Consciousness projection into a virtual environment.

[Colin nods.]

I'm familiar with it. Was it expansive?
freedom_engineer: (Default)

[personal profile] freedom_engineer 2015-05-14 09:33 pm (UTC)(link)
[Colin smiles at her joke, but he doesn't engage it for now.]

Limited area, then. Not surprising. You all thought it was real, I assume?
freedom_engineer: (Listening)

[personal profile] freedom_engineer 2015-05-14 09:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Again, not surprising. Constructing a virtual world is hard enough without having to account for the whole world and all the laws of physics...

Can you define "Wacky stuff"? Or would you prefer to tell me about the virus?

[He'll let her decide where to take this. She'll be more likely to tell him more if she takes her own route.]
freedom_engineer: (Listening)

How did I lose track of this? GAH.

[personal profile] freedom_engineer 2015-05-18 08:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Hmmm... That sounds a lot more like a typical programmed interface screw than an actual glitch in the system or a virus. But nothing's impossible.

A stuffed rabbit for a teacher, that's definitely an interesting avatar choice.

[He watches her, his gaze steady. He wants to pay attention to her face and her shoulders, just for hints of that tell-tale tension indicating he should steer a conversation elsewhere.]

So what was this virus?
freedom_engineer: (Contemplative)

Malice, or memory problems? YOU DECIDE!

[personal profile] freedom_engineer 2015-05-18 09:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Hmmmm... Perhaps. Perhaps not. With... No, no, too much speculation, not worth pursuing when no answers will be forthcoming.

[It's a disturbing thought, but Colin doesn't think it sounds accurate enough. Too many variables, and not cruel enough of an end-game. He could come up with about a half dozen more despair-inducing things off the top of his head. Still, no sense making Ibuki consider those.]

I almost wish I could have met her. She sounds like she was skilled with computers. Probably would have had to have killed her though, when you can't play well with others, there's really no room for you in society. And if she's got no problem with setting up a killing game, then she's already proven that she's lacking the base behaviors responsible for societies to function.

[Colin likes dueling other hackers. Most of the time it's friendly. And when it's not... well, that's why he's got Merton.]
freedom_engineer: (Listening)

[personal profile] freedom_engineer 2015-05-18 09:35 pm (UTC)(link)
[Colin laughs quietly and he smiles.]

[It's true that he hadn't asked, but he still has ideas. Killing someone, even if it's just to take over their resources for future goals? Too short-sighted. Not enough pay-off.]


It's my wife that likes beating people up for no reason. The only time I want to see people suffer... well, I don't really. There's no point to suffering if you're just going to snuff someone out. All that does is increases the likelyhood that their spirit won't find rest. A quick death, that usually sends someone to the next world just as quickly.

[Colin shakes his head then.]

Everyone has reasons for what they do. Everyone. Cause and effect is what makes the universe work.
freedom_engineer: (Head cocked)

[personal profile] freedom_engineer 2015-05-18 09:48 pm (UTC)(link)
As your papa, lemme tell you something...

[He smiles at her, proud and beaming.]

Never underestimate what a normal person can do. Everyone is different, everyone has areas they excel, and everyone has no idea what they can actually do.

To live is to have limitless potential. If more people realized that, what a universe we'd live in.

Don't think I'm making light of what you know you can do... I'm just saying... think of what you DON'T know you can do. Now multiply that by everyone. Everywhere. Ever.

Ah, but I'm getting off track here... Sorry, I'm old, I'm allowed to do that every now and then.
freedom_engineer: (Head cocked)

[personal profile] freedom_engineer 2015-05-19 08:51 am (UTC)(link)
I'm always totally right. Even before I was papa.

Now, I'm 200 percent right. You've amplified my possibility of being correct beyond the universal norm.

That's a heck of a thing you did.

[He smiles, and he hugs her right back.]
windgod: (Bashful)

[personal profile] windgod 2015-05-28 07:48 am (UTC)(link)
[Well, when Ippo stepped into Colin's shop, he'd been expecting to talk about some upgrades to his gauntlets...what he saw, wasn't exactly on the list of things he was anticipating seeing. Not that there was anything wrong with Ibuki hugging Colin or anything...it was just something out of his ordinary.]

Did...I come at a bad time? Should I...leave?
freedom_engineer: (Head cocked)

Whoops, missed this one... DUR.

[personal profile] freedom_engineer 2015-06-04 09:26 am (UTC)(link)
[Colin looks over at Ippo, and he smirks.]

You leave now, you're not gonna get the full treatment Ippo.

[His eyes twinkle with mischievous delight.]

You planning on making an honest woman of my little girl?
windgod: (Shocking!)

[personal profile] windgod 2015-06-04 09:33 am (UTC)(link)
...I...uh...yes??

[You've kind of lost him guys, he wasn't expecting this when he walked in here.]

Colin...is your dad now? You're her dad Colin? ...When did this happen? If I had known I would have asked you first before proposing...

[Oh man, oh man did he mess up? Did he miss a steP IN THIS OH MAN OH JEEZ OH MAN.]
freedom_engineer: (Wicked)

[personal profile] freedom_engineer 2015-06-04 08:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Actually, I prefer this one, Ibuki.

[He beams at Ibuki, then he looks at Ippo and looks deadly serious.]

Just remember, Ippo. You make her cry, I make you cry.

[He looks at Ibuki again, his serious demeanor totally evaporating.]

Not bad, right?
windgod: (Bashful)

[personal profile] windgod 2015-06-05 09:26 am (UTC)(link)
[Yeah, he'd be lying if he said he wasn't feeling the chills too...but he'll push past that enough to hold out a hand for Colin to shake.]

Well...if that's how it is, should I start calling you my step-dad? I wouldn't dream of hurting Ibuki...she means the world to me.

[Seriously, if Ippo of all people is giving her a ring, then she has to be someone special.]
