Week 0, Saturday

[aono]

[Hey Sebastian! Rin has been kicked out of the kitchen again, but he at least managed to cook some food before he got kicked out. He's carrying a plate full of these little dumpling things when he walks by.]

Hey, you hungry?

[unbested]

[ blinks ]

Oh. Uh, yeah, actually. Thanks.

[aono]

[He shows off the plate, which is full of bao.]

Hope you don't mind, I only had enough time to make one thing before I got kicked out of the kitchen.

[unbested]

No, it... it looks good.

[ smiles a little even though he's. so tired. he'll grab a couple of dumplings! ]

...Why'd you get kicked out of the kitchen, though?

[aono]

If you stay in there too long then the people who usually cook kick you out.

[unbested]

It's not the headless chicken that does it?

[aono]

I fear no chicken.

[unbested]

...Does that mean it was the chicken?

week 1 monday

[unbested]

10. You open the door and find yourself standing on a seemingly endless road of rainbow loops around in dazzling colors with no barriers in sight. It’s live and die gloriously on the Rainbow Road out here, binches. A huge variety of vehicles are lined up: go-karts, bikes, pick-up trucks, a very confused horse, motorcycles, etc. It seems like someone making this might not be super familiar with your concept here, but is trying hard. As you start driving around it, you can race your fellows in good sport (or bad sport) - there’s friendly signage posted to see how many laps you’ve done, and countdown timers, all the things you’d expect. Unfortunately you’ll find each one of these vehicles is increasingly hard to control, and it might just send you careening off the edge and into endless space … and down … and down … it seems there’s no one to fish you out of it. You get the feeling that you will have to race to get out of here. If you fall, you will fall for an exceedingly long time, feeling as though someone is laughing at you, before you find yourself back in the hallway, disoriented and sore, as if you've just been in an accident - although there is no physical injury on you. If you somehow manage to win your race without falling, you will find yourself out in the hallway again, a little disoriented but vaguely prideful. If you lose your race without falling, you find yourself out in the hallway again, disoriented and motion sick. Only four minutes have passed.

[ Sebastian seems? Weirdly excited about this room? ]

Whoa! This looks cool!

[ Running straight for a red motorcycle!! ]

[aono]

It's like a carnival or something!

[He is absolutely grabbing a blue go-kart.]

C'mon, let's see where it goes!

[unbested]

Yeah, this is so much better than the other doors!

[ He hops on the motorcycle and starts it up!!! And like? Knows what he's doing???

He glances up at the finish line and then at the track behind him. ]

I guess it like... loops around, right?

week 2, monday

[unbested]

[ A little bit after watching Rin run back in the door and race off to his room, Sebastian (with the ears and fluffy tail of a top pomeranian, which is fine) knocks on his door to see what's up. ]

[aono]

Seems like it.

[He grins.]

Bet I can beat you around.

[aono]

[TOP POMERANIAN

Rin's hair is currently white with a blue ombre at the end, a feature that is much more distinct now that his hair is longer. And he has it out of its ponytail when he opens the door to see Sebastian.]

Yeah? What's up?

[Totally trying to act normal, yep.]

[unbested]

Uh... I noticed you running in from the front door and zooming back to your room, and wanted to see what was going on?

[ squints ]

Are you embarrassed about getting your hair done or something?

[aono]

[He's frowning now.]

My hair's fine. There's nothin' wrong with blue.

[unbested]

Yeah, first place is a blue ribbon!

[ he likes blue! red just beats it out by a little because red is the prosecutor color and his dad's favorite. ]

But what were you running for, then?

[aono]

I just...wanted to?

[He doesn't sound confident in his answer.]

I mean, we gotta stay in shape here, yeah?

[unbested]

Um. I guess...? I thought you looked kind of upset about something, though.

[ he knows all about distressed running vs. normal running!!! ]

But if not, then... cool...?

[aono]

Don't make me give you a noogie.

[Rin's way of covering up his feelings: Deflection!]

Week 2, Saturday

[aono]

[This one takes place out in Annkeen, because I say so.

Rin is at the housing district, standing near one of the four buildings there. His hand hovers over the door handle, but at the last moment he chickens out and walks away. Instead he'll go over to the fountain in the courtyard and sit on the ledge there. That's where he'll be when he sees Sebastian.]

Oh, hey.

[unbested]

[ Sebastian doesn't see him at first, and jumps a little as he turns to look over toward the fountain. He's very obviously been crying a lot. ]

...Hey.

[aono]

[Sebastian are you CRYING?]

Woah, you okay?

[unbested]

[ TBF HE IS ALWAYS CRYING ]

Of course not!! We're killing somebody who didn't do anything wrong because I wasn't— we weren't good enough!

[aono]

[This BABY]

You really didn't get any of the votes wrong where you were?
