Week 4: April 22nd - April 26th

[cartesio]

Fourth Week

A second murder shook the town of Cartesio. Clarisse's ambush plan ended with Katsuki Bakugou's death. Now what?

Nothing to be done other than continuing their life and watch what happens. After two weeks, after the deaths they have seen, it's hard to think there's a way out. The only option is to wait for the right chance to turn the tables and see a weak point in the Sergeant's plans -- and hopefully not see any murders.

The townspeople's attitude towards the tourists soured even more. The destruction of the church was much worse than anything they had seen so far, and they ran out of patience. People who in the past were nice and wanted nothing more than to make the tourists happy now aren't afraid of saying to their faces what's what. Random pedestrians shout at the visitors, telling them to stop being criminals. Although there are a few who have more patience than the rest, general opinion is clear:

The tourists are nuisances, to say the least.

In the lobby of the motel there's a few more brochures, and the maps have been updated once again.

[Having not questioned the mods about this, one can only assume it's a pretty normal view of the town, just from on high.

Airgetlam will stay up there for a minute or two, then slowly begin its descent.]

[streetwolf]

[Even if he's not panicking and waving about, he's still pretty wide-eyed as he's brought down.

But he's scrambling as soon as he can reach the floor. Fuck this!]

...I'd ask if you could fly out but I think people have tried that.

[doublelammy]

Yeah, no thanks. I don't wanna get struck by lightning.

[But who cares about that?]

But how was it? Pretty cool, right?

[streetwolf]

Yeah. All this magical bullshit - I wonder if we'd be able to drive out even if we got a car.

.. It was interesting. [Him admitting he was scared or that he enjoyed it for a moment? Never! ] It was weird. Not bad. But the closest I've had to flying is being thrown by an explosion.

[doublelammy]

Prolly not. We might be able to make it out a little ways, but then what? Either Sarge'd warp us right back here or he'd just fry us n' call it a day and start with a new group.

[She doesn't trust the Sergeant any farther than she could throw him, is her point here.]

Well, I hope Lammy's a lot better than an explosion.

[streetwolf]

Yeah. I'm not sure about the wrap thing, but something ain't right here.

[He's been being good as rebellion ]

It is. I'm not running for my life this time either.

[doublelammy]

I mean, he grabbed us outta all our homes and dropped us in here. I feel like it wouldn't be too hard for him just to grab us from just outside town and drag us back.

Well... that's usually an improvement, yeah.

[streetwolf]

Fuck...We're really stuck here aren't we? He's leaving later I guess. But I'm not sure how we'd get out after that.

[doublelammy]

I dunno, either. 'Cause this sure as heck isn't my world, and I sure as heck don't know how to just hop on back.

[streetwolf]

Yeah. I thought we'd just been taken to America somehow and they knew Japanese, cause I sure as hell don't speak English. Then I could just hop on a plane or boat back. But that's not happening.

[doublelammy]

...I don't even know what either of those languages are, so... yeah. Definitely not gonna happen.

[streetwolf]

...For some reason. I'm not surprised anymore.

[doublelammy]

Kinda hard to be surprised after everything this place keeps throwin' at us.

[streetwolf]

No kidding, just the other day I learnt a guy was from 70 years after me. An' he's got an old style name.

[doublelammy]

...Which guy?

[tfw you come from a canon where your own name is about as normal as "Claire" or "George"]

[streetwolf]

Osomatsu... Where I'm from most people don't use the Japanese name any more. Gets too much attention. But that's probably cause most the people using them are old military fucks who run around with guns.

[doublelammy]

Huh. It's weird to me that you call that "old style" when it just kinda sounds weird n' Eastern to me. That's why I just stick with "Oso."

Maybe you guys are from, like... parallel worlds? Or history changes a heck of a lot over those 70 years.

[streetwolf]

I think it's probably the parallel worlds one. I hope so anyway. That'd really piss the old bastatds off.

Most people where I'm from started using western names after the war. Makes it easier if you've gotta deal with the military police.

[doublelammy]

"Usin'." So, do you have an Eastern name? 'Cause your last name is, but your first name is pretty normal t' me.

CW suicide

[streetwolf]

Yeah. That's right. Folks put it on the paperwork before they offed themselves.

[He could have held back on that. Most people would have, but he just says it like it's the weather. Cause he really doesn't care about them.]

[doublelammy]

[It's probably for the best that he's saying this to Millium, who has no parents herself and therefore can't really understand the severity of this.]

And then you picked Wayne? Or did someone else pick it for you?

What was it before?

[streetwolf]

[It's lucky for Wayne. Because if it'd been someone who would have responded to that with anything resembling pity, he- He probably would have punched them.]

Yeah, I picked it after the war when lots of other people started doing it. Knew it was an American name cause I overheard it.

I'm not sure why you're asking. It's not like I've used it in years. [He rolls his eyes, but shrugs.] ...Kouta. It's nothing special or anything. Surprised the old bastard didn't write it down just to be a pain.

[doublelammy]

Mm... curiosity, I guess. I haven't really known anyone that got t'pick their own name before.

[But she listens.]

Kouta. ...It's kinda cute, y'know? Ehe, but I think Wayne suits you better. A cute name totally wouldn't work for a guy like you~

[streetwolf]

Most people do back home, stops'em from singling you out-[Okay he's stopping to pull the biggest fucking face.]

No. Stop. I get enough of that cutesy bullshit from Stella and Meryl when they saw it on my work documents.

[doublelammy]

[What was that? "Stop doing the thing?" Oh, Wayne, you precious fool, don't you understand she's gong to take that as "go harder?"]

E~he~he~ do~ ya? Wonder what it is they call you...

Kouty? ...Mm, no, you're Eastern, they don't do nicknames like that, right? Well, there's Sakura-chan, so... Kouta-chan?

...Kou-chan?

[Wayne is doomed.]
