WEEK 7

Week 7

Monday - Thursday

[Despite earnest intentions to the contrary, last week had a business-as-usual murder trial. Well, you may not all act noble, but you'll be treated like royalty on this new floor. ...Except by Sheepy, who is still bugging you when you're awake. The strange distortions appear in the air before she shows up before everyone.]

Goooood morning! Sleep well? We unlocked the 8th floor, so make sure you move in and get cozy! The motive's on the way and it's one of my favorites! Have fun~

That bad, huh.

[This is gonna be a shitshow.]

Whatever you decide to do with it, you tell me if someone decides to give you shit. I'm not here for anyone's bullshit when it comes to things like that, not at this point.

[unlikelyend]

I will.

[ It really is.

Regardless, he releases a breath he didn't know he was holding. ]

... Thank you for that, Top Dollar.

[devilsnight]

[...He just kind of returns his attention to the star chart at that.]

Jason. You can call me Jason.

[unlikelyend]

[ There's a brief look of surprise on his end, but then he feels himself eager to say the name, and so... ]

Very well... Jason.

[devilsnight]

Told you guys I'd let you know it once you'd earned it.

[He shrugs again.]

It's been a while since I've gone by that; it's gonna take some getting used to again.

[unlikelyend]

Was there... any reason in particular you had gone without that name for some time?

[ Just a little bit out of curiosity, here. ]

[devilsnight]

Didn't want my legitimate businesses connected with my not-so legitimate ones, is part of it.

[...]

Let's say I didn't really want to have too many personal connections to my life before I stopped using it, either.

[unlikelyend]

[ That made sense to him. ]

That is understandable. There would be too much risk in either of the scenarios.

[devilsnight]

See, you get it.

[you did it! you cracked the code.]

Either way, I figured I don't mind you knowing. Yeager knows about it too, even if he doesn't use it all that much.

[unlikelyend]

[ Does he get a prize? ]

... The significance of being allowed this is not lost. It feels like we have managed to somehow become a little closer...although I hope that does not sound too odd.

[devilsnight]

[The true prize is clearly the unbelievably socially awkward friendships we made along the way.]

Probably because I actually give a fuck in your direction? I dunno. You're someone I want to see live to the end of all this bullshit, so it doesn't sound too weird to me, I guess.

[unlikelyend]

[ ... He can't help but manage a small, warm smile at that. ]

I am glad to hear that.

[ ... ]

I know this may be obvious by now, yet, I do feel the same about you... Jason. You are one of those important to me, and I want you to come out of this alive as well.

[devilsnight]

Don't worry, friend, I plan on it.

[He does seem pleased with that, though, even if his words themselves are a little flippant; the tone, at least, is not.]

I'm gonna win this thing whether the management likes it or not; just a matter of making sure the people I give a fuck about make it there with me.
