[ well this has been terrible and very bad. ash is taking a long walk by the lake, for... reasons? probably to clear his head, but also to try and run things through again while he's actually in the area they happened.
[Akira had come here to fish, to try and ease his mind off of everything that had happened this weekend, but. . . when Ash finds him? he just looks distant, standing on the edge of the boardwalk with a fishing pole resting on his shoulder]
WEEK 1; SUNDAY, post execution

no subject
Ah.
You should've pushed me into the lake.
no subject
[ he drops himself down next to akira and squints out over the lake ]
You fishin’ for a lake monster?
no subject
[no comment on that, and Akira's smile is lopsided and doesn't quite reach his eyes]
And maybe. Got a problem with that?
[he is not, he is fishing for fish to calm his mind]
no subject
[ shame. if there’s treasure, he wants it. it’d be something not related to, y’know. death and murder and accidentally voting for someone innocent. ]
no subject
[a hum]
As a professional thief, I'm obligated to pursue any sort of treasure.
[also he pats the boardwalk spot next to him so that Ash will sit down]
no subject
Professional now, huh? What sort of things are you looking to steal here, then?
no subject
[the look he flashes Ash is a bit sly. a bit mischievous]
How about the cash box in the camp store?
no subject
All the coupons we could need, right? Unless there’s actual cash in there. Not sure why though,
What about sneaking into the director’s cabins, seeing if there’s something there that might give us a clue about what’s running this place?
no subject
[another hum, and Akira nods]
I thought about those too, but I thought we might have more luck with the cash box. Even so, we can give it a shot.
[he just wouldn't be surprised if that attempt ends in complete failure]
Whose cabin would you want to target first? Shadows, Winter, or Heart?
no subject
[ hm, hmm. ]
Start small, work it up. I don’t have an opinion or idea of who might know more — you’re the professional thief here.
no subject
[cheeky and playful, but he lapses back into thoughtful seriousness afterwards]
I get the feeling that they all know the same amount. . . at least, for now. But Heart might be the most informed out of the three.
no subject
[ ...... ]
Sure. It’s a starting point. Shadows is pretty quiet, and I don’t have much of a grasp on Winter yet so... [ he shrugs! ]
no subject
[HE SOUNDS FOND]
I'll get some lockpick materials and let you know when I've got them ready, yeah? We can plan this for next week.
no subject
[ ash does not sound so fond. ]
Alright. I'm sure you can flirt with them if they catch us and distract them.
no subject
I doubt that would work, but thank you for having faith in my. . . abilities?
no subject
[ you know you want to, akira. ]
no subject
no subject
Hey, I'm just saying.
no subject
[. . .]
[and then he lapses into a pensive expression]
Hey, Ash. Can I ask you a few questions about curfew?
no subject
Sure. What's up?
no subject
[a hm]
Were they there when you woke up?
