[ with the reveal of the npcs and that slight lore drop, izumo is...largely unchanged, honestly. things weren't going to be and wow, surprise! they weren't. so, she's wandering aimlessly when she spots hansa.

if she remembers the profiles right—he was one of the weird ones. hmmm. still—she has a few questions and thinks of her own. so, she'll wander over towards him and vaguely make conversation. ]

Taking another look at these PHS's?

[robopriest]

Hm?

[He's just scrolling away with one hand - it seems that him and devices like this go together like bread and butter. Hansa stops, glancing up at the girl with a light smile.]

Its something to do. Sort of need to put my thoughts together after that whole little presentation.

[sacredchants]

[ she's not offering the same but she's not scowling...just looking at him impassively. judging, perhaps? ]

It was a lot to take in, wasn't it? How much of it do you believe?

[robopriest]

Not much, I think. Well, it could be true, but the fact that so much is still vague and kept from us, makes me think that the truth is pretty far away from whatever stuff about "nova" they keep pushing.

[A short huff.]

You've never heard of this nova thing before, have you?

[sacredchants]

[ she'll take that in stride with a nod. okay. here's someone who isn't buying into the information straight away. that's a promising sign for things to come...probably. ]

No, I haven't heard about it before.

[ hmm. ]

Well, I've heard of supernovas, but those are just stars after they've blown up.

[robopriest]

Supernovas...yeah, I've heard about that too. No connection to memories or worlds and stuff as far as I know.

[Just collect supernovas to unlock worlds, kids! This isn't Super Mario Galaxy.]

And then this competition thing. As if being allowed to go back home or saving the universe wasn't enough.

[sacredchants]

[ wait.

what? ]

Competition thing? I hadn't heard of that part.

week 0 after MURDER

[robopriest]

[Hansa seems like he's headed back to his room, rubbing at his forehead with a sigh, when he spots Izumo - he pauses, giving her a wave.]

Hey. I assume you heard the news?

[He hasn't noticed her foot yet.]

[sacredchants]

[ yeah what if she hides her foot!!!

except she totally is unable to do that since she's refusing to wear any kind of foot wear on that foot. the last thing you need to do is shove a wound into an environment like a shoe... nods in izumo "mildly" damp from her river misadventures and hoodie draped over her left arm. ]

Yeah. [ she'll lower he head some. ] Which part of the news are you most interested in?

[robopriest]

Uh.

[Now that he's actually looking directly at her...a lot is going on here, huh.]

First of all...are you okay?

[sacredchants]

[ no it's not!! it's week 0 and we both know things can get so much worse. ...but it is also week 0 and izumo has made some choices. ]

I'm fine.

[ (she is lying.) ]

[robopriest]

You look like the opposite of fine-wait, what's going on with your foot?

[POINTS AT IT. WHAT ARE THOOOOOSE]

[sacredchants]

[ oh. uh, she'll casually try to cross it behind her good foot. ]

I stepped on some glass.

[ dryly. look, she'd be more upset about it but the fact that someone is dead... well, what's a bleeding foot? ]

I'm pretty sure I pulled all of it out.

w4 monday

[robopriest]

Heyyy! Izumo!

[Aren't you happy this is taking place before grandpa snuggles? Anyways, Hansa is walking up, holding up his PHS.]

Do you have a moment? I want to talk to you about something.

[sacredchants]

[ cries. only made worst by alphi leaving alone to deal with them.

that aside, she'll give a tilt of her head and wait for him to get closer. random call out but it's fine. ]

Sure; what is it?

[robopriest]

It looks like my PHS gained some ability to text the ones who were "removed".

[A pause. He offers her a small smile.]

...I just wanted to see if you wanted to write Shiro or Shima something.

[sacredchants]

Oh, you got it as well?

[ color her surprised??? for more than one reason, honestly. ]

...are you the one who has been putting the message out there?

[robopriest]

...Eh?

[Well, that's a surprise.]

Oh, no. I just saw it and thought to let you know.

[sacredchants]

This past Sunday, I got a message indicating that I could send messages to the dead—I'm assuming you got the same thing around the same time?

[ honestly, she's really touched that hansa thought of her. truly. ]

w5 post investigation

[robopriest]

[He's wandering near the gardens, trying to clear his head. Four murders. Mob is dead. Fiora is dead. He's still looking for Jeanne, and...]

[Oh. He spots Izumo - he hasn't seen her in a while, huh? Hansa moves forward, giving her a wave as he approaches. She should probably notice that he's...a little sparkly? Huh.]

Hey. Hey, Izumo. What are you doing all the way out here?

[sacredchants]

[ sparkly...... honestly? her mind is elsewhere so she'll forgive the sparkling. maybe it's for the best? ]

Hansa. [ for a moment she considers saying something for a moment and it looks like she won't?? but.

hmm. ] ...I'm organizing my thoughts, I guess.

[robopriest]

...Goodness, what happened to you?

[Guess who missed out on the CYOAs! This man!]

[But he shakes his head, and moves to sit next to her, folding his hands in his lap.]

It was probably one of those other worlds, I guess. Anyways...what thoughts are those, Izumo?

[sacredchants]

You'd be right; I ran into some robots who didn't like me very much.

[ YEAH IT'S FINE...... i'm sure he had better things to do? maybe?? either way, she'll breeze right past that sentiment unless he wants her to go back to it and get to her thoughts. ]

...what do you know of the condition of bringing people back after they've been removed?

[robopriest]

Robots?

[Of course. Robots. What else is new.]

[But he'll allow her to move on for now, since her thoughts at the moment seem to be more pressing. His face falls, though, at that question.]

...I know that each team has to remove two people from the Realm, in order for everyone to be revived. I've heard that rule.

[sacredchants]

[ she'll nod once. ]

Robots. The kind with lasers.

[ explains the hole in her leg but only oocly instead of icly and that's fine. ]

But did you hear about the stipulation of how the second kill needs to be done intentionally?
