WEEK 1; SUNDAY, post execution

[voidbreaker]

[ 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.

what's up joker? ]

[survivaltricks]

[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]

[he has yet to realize he is no longer alone]

[voidbreaker]

[ wow. he's super out of it.


...



...



... ash whistles, to get his attention. because he's not a total dick. ]

[survivaltricks]

[and Akira jolts to attention, head whipping around to face Ash, eyes blinking blearily behind his glasses]

Ah.








You should've pushed me into the lake.

[voidbreaker]

That seems kinda lowbrow after what might or might not have happened here.

[ he drops himself down next to akira and squints out over the lake ]

You fishin’ for a lake monster?

[survivaltricks]

. . . hn.

[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]

[voidbreaker]

Nah. It’d make seeing if there is a bottom to this thing, and if there’s treasure there easier.

[ 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. ]

[survivaltricks]

Ooooh, treasure.

[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]

[voidbreaker]

[ welp. he’ll take a seat. ]

Professional now, huh? What sort of things are you looking to steal here, then?

[survivaltricks]

[well]

[the look he flashes Ash is a bit sly. a bit mischievous]

How about the cash box in the camp store?

[voidbreaker]

...

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?

[survivaltricks]

Why did we break into Blue's desk? You never know what you might find.

[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?

[voidbreaker]

If we find a stone we’re supposed to look through, you can have it this time.

[ 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.

[survivaltricks]

I thought we already talked about that?

[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.

[voidbreaker]

Yeah, and I’m reiterating the point.

[ ...... ]

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! ]

[survivaltricks]

Shadows is pretty quiet, but you should talk to Winter more. They're pretty entertaining.

[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.

[voidbreaker]

I know they can't cook for crap.

[ ash does not sound so fond. ]

Alright. I'm sure you can flirt with them if they catch us and distract them.

[survivaltricks]

[SNORTS]

I doubt that would work, but thank you for having faith in my. . . abilities?

[voidbreaker]

Try it anyway, I'll need a way of sneaking out.

[ you know you want to, akira. ]

[survivaltricks]

[shoves a hand in Ash's face]

[voidbreaker]

[ hey!! he grabs at akira's wrist ]

Hey, I'm just saying.

[survivaltricks]

[sticks his tongue out at him and yanks his wrist back, turning back to the lake]

[. . .]

[and then he lapses into a pensive expression]

Hey, Ash. Can I ask you a few questions about curfew?

[voidbreaker]

[ he folds his arms over the tops of his knees. ]

Sure. What's up?

[survivaltricks]

The bees.

[a hm]

Were they there when you woke up?

[voidbreaker]

Yup. As soon as we woke up, they were hanging out around us.
