[doublesmall]

Eh, you can try me. I can't make you any promises about it, though.

[an effort will be made, probably?]

[uncleanse]

[ he sits up a little straighter. ]

Why Day 50?

[doublesmall]

Why would I know? We're not omniscient-- I didn't pick the day, or anything like that.

[uncleanse]

It's a little hard to gauge what the four of you don't know, and what you merely cannot share with us.

[ a light shrug... like, he doesn't know what will and won't get censored or not... ]

Mostly, I'm curious as to why the ritual can only be done on the fiftieth day itself... unless the information I got from Izuminokami-san was incorrect in some way.

[doublesmall]

-yeah, I know. It just gets a little frustrating. Not your fault.

[he dislikes not being able to give them more... tipsy chuuya is a more honest chuuya.]

I don't think I can say anything about how well you interpreted your info, but... I don't really know anything about the 'why's of it.

[uncleanse]

I see... haha, I should have expected as much. Though, to be honest, the fact that he seemed to be prepared for our meeting at all was a pleasant surprise itself. It was relieving to know I didn't have to give the entire speech once again.

[doublesmall]

He's a real hard worker, huh...?

[chuuya sounds so proud!!]

Miss that guy, honestly. He was always good company. [and because he's been fucking drinking:] Not a half bad lay, either.

[uncleanse]

Oh...? [ his lips curl upward slyly. ] I seem to recall you telling me that you don't share that sort of information. Have you lied to me, Chuuya-san...?

[ he's teasing, obviously, but also, dude, ]

[doublesmall]

What...? Oh. Oh, shit, right.

[he just. clears his throat, shaking his head as if to clear it.]

I don't about 99% of the time.

[uncleanse]

Hahaha... I suppose this makes me the lucky 1%, then?

[ the joke, which is lost on nikkari, is that chuuya is a rich bitch ]

[doublesmall]

Lucky enough to catch me with less of a filter, sure.

[he huffs out a sigh, and then he just. scoots a little closer-- carefully, because he knows nikkari is injured.]

[uncleanse]

I'll take the honor either way.

[ he doesn't mind when chuuya moves closer to him; he shuffles some of his papers out of the way so that he doesn't have to sit on top of them. ]

The particulars of bedding my comrade aside... [ he's not gonna let go of that one for a bit, rip ] There's something else he attempted to tell me that I couldn't quite make sense of.

Is there some sort of divine presence aboard this ship?

[doublesmall]

You're really not going to let me live on that one, are you...

[he makes a face!!

but as for the question-]

If there's a god here it's sure as fuck not listening to anything we have to say, is it?

[uncleanse]

[ teasing laughter! ... which loses its playfulness as chuuya answers. ]

Izuminokami-san couldn't quite give me a straightforward answer about it. I assumed he meant holy water, but he still seemed to hint at something more... hm. I also assume, even if you did know the answer to that, I would end up just hearing—

[ censored noise. he's tried doing it a couple of times now, it's probably a little more recognizable than his previous attempts... but with a soft laugh and shake of his head, he looks up from the papers to look directly at chuuya. ]

... Say, Chuuya-san. You and the other hosts can grant favors to us by completing tasks for you, no?

[doublesmall]

...yeah, I'm pretty sure it'd just be static. Sorry, Nikkari.

[...but he perks up when nikkari asks that question, giving him a relieved little smile.]

We sure can. I'm pretty sure I know what you want, but-- go ahead and lay it on me, just to be sure I can say what I want to.

[uncleanse]

What would be your cost to heal my leg? I don't expect it to be fully repaired, but... any sense of mobility would certainly help than none.

[doublesmall]

God, finally-- it's a pain in the ass that I couldn't just offer you a task to do that.

[he's felt bad about it, okay, he would have healed it by now...]

Ah... hm. We've been big on networking lately, so... sleep with three people you haven't yet? I know, I know, you're injured, but-- just take it a little easy.

[uncleanse]

[ that. actually surprises nikkari, as he pulls out his clamshell and opens the thottlr app. ]

. . .

My. Have I slept around that much...

[doublesmall]

Believe me, I feel the same way sometimes.

[uncleanse]

[ ... a quick grin as his eyes flick back over to chuuya. ]

Well. If you won't tell me who exactly... can you at least tell me whether it's been more or less than me?

[ NIKKARI? ]

[doublesmall]

I get the distinct impression this is a trap of some kind...

[NIKKARI PLEASE]

[uncleanse]

Haha... what if I'm just curious?

[doublesmall]

You just want to know if you've called on me the most, huh?

[uncleanse]

I'm actually more interested in knowing how many of our peers you've bedded.

[doublesmall]

[andie i HATE that he's doing this when chuuya is tipsy enough to make BAD DECISIONS]

I don't know, too many?

Out of your specific peers, all but one.
