[Day 212] Well it woulda been coulda been worse than you would ever know... [OPEN]

Who: Everyone!
Open: Open
When: Day 212, evening
Where: in front of the Distillery
What: No one died during the horrible plague scare! That's reason enough for a feast and a mingle log right?
Format: Any!
Warnings: Shouldn't be any but will adjust if needed



[Someone has been busy today. The kitchen and Distillery has been noisy and bustling, a departure from the much more quiet days when the illness was spreading through the Bastion and survival was once more on the uncertain scale of things. Somewhere around the time that the night cycle begins, when the sky is more of an orange-ish glow fading in to blue and purple, a large spread of food has been set up near the Distillery with glass lanterns hanging overhead.

Just like any other time there has been a feast be it random or planned, there is a wide selection of food on the covered, decorated tables. There's even meat this time! And yes, Aoi, your doughnuts have been transferred from your trees to a platter on the table. There's even a section for Paar, complete with massive amounts of bbq'd mammoth meat! You can thank Colin for that.

There's really no announcement for the feast, but chances are if you're outside at any point today you'll see the progress towards the set up, or smell the delicious scents wafting over the Bastion. (There might even be music playing, if Colin finds a way to provide it!)

Either way, come dusk food will be ready and mingling will be had!]


(ooc: Standard mingle log right here. Throw your threads up, poke other people's threads, and eat all the food!)
bulletofhope: (What kind of plot twist is that?!)

Well, if you're... sure...

[ That's still impressive by any means. ]

I guess it's a good thing, though... means you're not ill anymore, right?
bedheadstyle: (✎day after day)

[personal profile] bedheadstyle 2014-07-30 12:13 am (UTC)(link)
Well... I'm not sure. I think my heart is better but the surgery might have been a temporary fix. It's a difficult disease to treat.

But I feel better! That has to count for something right?
bulletofhope: (*a gentle smile*)

[personal profile] bulletofhope 2014-07-30 05:12 am (UTC)(link)
Ah... one step at a time, though, right? You're right, you're better for the moment - it's a good day when you're not sick and confined to bed, really.

[ A pause. ]

Or spending time with your Takane, too. Right?
bedheadstyle: (✎will make a stand)

[personal profile] bedheadstyle 2014-07-31 03:22 am (UTC)(link)
Exactly!

[Which is why he's more than willing to stuff his face full of food.]

As much as she wants me around. Sometimes she gets annoyed and just wants to be left alone. But that's fine! I think everyone gets like that.
bulletofhope: (Hope has prevailed... thank goodness.)

[personal profile] bulletofhope 2014-08-02 10:02 am (UTC)(link)
True... nothing wrong with wanting your solitude.

[ A beat. ]

Though you still want to be with her too, right?
bedheadstyle: (✎we'll tell this story again)

[personal profile] bedheadstyle 2014-08-02 11:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Well... of course. She's my friend.

[Still not getting it.]
bulletofhope: (*a gentle smile*)

[personal profile] bulletofhope 2014-08-02 11:44 pm (UTC)(link)
No, no... I meant as a lover. Right?

[ Haruka Kokonose: Super High School Level Obliviousness ]
bedheadstyle: (✎they turn the page)

[personal profile] bedheadstyle 2014-08-03 02:47 am (UTC)(link)
[At least until that moment.]

Wh-what? What makes you think something like that?!
bulletofhope: (Yeah. I'm totally smooth. Yep.)

[personal profile] bulletofhope 2014-08-03 09:43 am (UTC)(link)
Nothing--! Nothing... I was just joking.

[ Really. Naegi raises his arms in defense, laughing awkwardly before quickly changing the subject. ]

... that said, how is Takane doing, anyway?
bedheadstyle: (✎lost as we were)

[personal profile] bedheadstyle 2014-08-11 10:07 pm (UTC)(link)
... she's... cranky. That's to be expected, though.

[He hesitates, then adds quietly]

Actually I think she's pretty depressed about all of this. Not that she'd ever admit it. She's sleeping a lot more than she usually does and it's hard to get her out of the apartment most days.
bulletofhope: This stupid MTB game's harder than I thought. (Give me a moment...)

[personal profile] bulletofhope 2014-08-11 11:02 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah... I can't blame her. With the kind of situation we've been thrown into, I can understand why it would be depressing...

[ Naegi himself feels that had he not been in Hope's Peak before this, the circumstances they're in would be overwhelming to him... ]

I think... what she needs now is for you to be there for her. You're very close to her, right? I think she'd appreciate it, even if she doesn't say or act it outright.
bedheadstyle: (✎lost as we were)

[personal profile] bedheadstyle 2014-08-13 01:24 am (UTC)(link)
We didn't have a lot of friends back home but the ones we did have we were pretty close to. I'm sure she doesn't like thinking about that, or the family that we both lost...

[Her grandmother, his parents... and of course Shintaro and Ayano.]

I'm trying to be, but she keeps acting like she doesn't want me around all that much. I'm probably just annoying her, really.
bulletofhope: This stupid MTB game's harder than I thought. (Give me a moment...)

[personal profile] bulletofhope 2014-08-13 07:01 am (UTC)(link)
... I don't blame you or Takane at all. I have some friends where I'm from that I wouldn't mind seeing again, even if I know a few of them have arrived here safely... it's not the same, if that makes any sense?

[ read: some of the more pleasant people that died during the Hope's Peak killing game... ]

Can you really be so sure about that, though? She could be putting up a tough front because she doesn't want you to see her falling apart because of our current situation...
bedheadstyle: (✎we'll meet again)

[personal profile] bedheadstyle 2014-08-17 03:40 am (UTC)(link)
I don't know. She won't talk to me about it. I try to bring it up and she just gets angry at me...

[Which is her usual way of being anyway so Haruka is having difficulty telling what's genuine and what's hiding her true feelings.]
bulletofhope: (What kind of plot twist is that?!)

[personal profile] bulletofhope 2014-08-18 10:50 am (UTC)(link)
... sounds like that's her usual way of dealing with things, based on what you've told me about her.

[ Takane plz ]

... I still think it would be good if you stayed around her. Be there for her. Because whether she's aware of it or not, you're... kinda the only person she knows from home that's here with her now.
bedheadstyle: (✎day after day)

[personal profile] bedheadstyle 2014-08-19 03:47 am (UTC)(link)
[Takane please is a pretty common way of looking at things in relation to her.]

Well... if that's what you think I should do.
bulletofhope: This stupid MTB game's harder than I thought. (Give me a moment...)

[personal profile] bulletofhope 2014-08-19 07:21 am (UTC)(link)
I think it's all you really can do... sometimes, support and reassurance is all that a person can give.

[ Especially in this unique situation they're all in... ]
bedheadstyle: (✎lost as we were)

[personal profile] bedheadstyle 2014-08-23 12:29 am (UTC)(link)
That's true. I just want her to be alright.
bulletofhope: (Hope has prevailed... thank goodness.)

[personal profile] bulletofhope 2014-08-23 05:22 am (UTC)(link)
... I think she will be. She has someone like you there for her when she needs it; that's certainly a lot more than if she were going through everything by herself.

[ Naegi really believes this. ]
bedheadstyle: (✎and what we found)

[personal profile] bedheadstyle 2014-08-25 10:55 pm (UTC)(link)
That's true... I hate to think of what would have happened if she wound up here alone.
bulletofhope: This stupid MTB game's harder than I thought. (Give me a moment...)

[personal profile] bulletofhope 2014-08-26 05:33 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah... really, both you and Takane just need to take it one day at a time. It's all any of us can do here given the circumstances, as depressing as it may sound.
bedheadstyle: (✎we'll meet again)

[personal profile] bedheadstyle 2014-08-28 11:30 pm (UTC)(link)
It is kind of depressing.

[Well a lot more than "kind of" but...]

But it's almost like an adventure, too.
bulletofhope: (What kind of plot twist is that?!)

[personal profile] bulletofhope 2014-08-29 09:54 am (UTC)(link)
An adventure...? How so?

[ Because that's certainly not a word he'd use to describe their current predicament right now... ]
bedheadstyle: (✎we'll meet again)

[personal profile] bedheadstyle 2014-08-31 09:52 pm (UTC)(link)
[Haruka knows it's sounds weird, but that's just how he sees it.]

I didn't get to go many places back home, because of my condition. There was just... school, and sometimes going to places in town. But there was this whole world beyond that and I knew deep down I'd probably never get to see it.

But now I'm here, and even if that world is gone this is still some place new for me. With new faces and new things to see.
bulletofhope: This stupid MTB game's harder than I thought. (Give me a moment...)

[personal profile] bulletofhope 2014-09-01 01:21 pm (UTC)(link)
[ . . .

It takes a while for Naegi to process it, but it... does make sense, in a way. The world beyond the walls, as it were. He could relate to a degree since he was in that same situation in Hope's Peak, though he wasn't compelled to kill to find out what was beyond its walls.

Still, it was the first time he'd considered this as such. ]


I guess that's true if you put it like that, huh...? I never really considered it like that but it makes sense...
