[ yamato's exploring the bookstore more out of vague interest in New Building than any kind of actual interest in anything here. he is also NOT bumping into walls right now so we're very proud of him. that means he does have more interest in ichiro when he spots him, though, and, wry; ]
At this point, think they're keeping the music stuff away just to mock us?
[ i'm really proud of him for not bumping into walls.
ichiro's hanging out on a bench! kind of resting, it looks like, flopped out. his emotions show recognition, and then friendly cheer, and then a little bit of amusement. ]
Yeah, probably. Didn't think there'd be a lazy river before a music room, but whatever. Sup, dude?
he snorts a little at the nudge, emotions giving off a brief flicker of concern (to his fear; he doesn't make any actual note of it though, because he understands Being A Cool Guy), but then a little bit of exasperation. ]
They're - I mean, they're goin'. I think I've been pretty lucky - most of mine have been pretty low key compared to some of the others. You?
Mine have been pretty easy for the most part. [ he stretches out a bit ] I've kind of ended up juggling the harder ones for some people to try and make them less terrible. ... Or just helping out in general. But-- you know. The more we do them, the more vouchers around, the better for the Dorm Heads, so.
And compared to everything else, helping out with those is almost fun.
That's nice of you, dude. I'm glad to get the vouchers, help the dorm heads. Anything to help, you know? How do you even find out about em, aren't we supposed to keep it on the DL? I guess sometimes it's easy to guess...
[ because he also wouldn't mind helping!! there's a little flicker of amusement, though. they are kinda silly when they're not about violence. ] Like, there's no way Mandricardo's wedding shtick wasn't one. Hope old dude gets the vouchers for it...
You can tell one or two people about them privately, so I just ask people if they need help with any. [ extremely? straightforward? ] Plus it means if I ever need someone else, it's a fair trade. So, you know... if you ever need it.
[ he's only half kidding. the other half is sincerely offering. and also god. he laughs a little at the reminder ]
If he doesn't get vouchers for it, I'm not sure how he'll ever heal from Catra kicking the shit out of him. He really didn't make it easy on himself, huh?
Haha. I like your style. [ straightforward is smart, actually? he's going to be doing that, too from now on.... ] I just turned one in, so I might get back to you on that. It was... weird, but it wasn't that bad.
[ and yeah. POOR MANDI. how he suffers. ] Poor dude. I guess that's kinda the point of these, right? If they're not that bad, most of them are just embarrassing. One of mine was "hug someone for too long".
Keep me updated. I'm still waiting on my next one, too. [ and then since ichiro shares that, yamato will share his own secret; ] Remember when the kitchen got wrapped up in Christmas paper? That was me. I had that one. I ruined my own life.
[ MAYBE FOUR PEOPLE USE THE KITCHEN AND HE'S ONE OF THEM ]
[ the fACE he makes because who else is one of the four people that uses the kitchen but ichiro. he winces, but it's at least good natured complaining, as he gives him a playful nudge with his shoulder. ]
It's mostly just harmless pranks, I guess. Mostly.
Don't "dude" me, I was one of the people who had to unwrap it anyway. [ dry. he sounds so tired. and speaking of tired: ] There's some really messed up ones hanging around, too. That's part of why I keep telling people... if they need it, I'll help them find a way to make them work without hurting anyone.
... Caiman had "frame someone for murder". [ quietly, looking away. there's some complicated feelings there! all things considered!!! ] That's why a lot of us were so sure he wasn't responsible for Sieghart, since he still had it.
I learned he was the one who had it pretty late. Back when Caleb thought he might have had something to do with Molly. [ there's a pause before he shakes his head, apparently clearing out his feelings with it as a bonus: ] It doesn't say it has to be the murder of a person or a successful one. Probably could've sent it in with something stupid, like... framing someone for the murder of a toy or accusing them of attempting to strangle a cow.
[ he has spent a lot of time trying to make these work and he means it ]
[ nodding... yeah, he hates that! just from having known about the extra credit - there's nothing more frustrating than the terms and conditions of this stupid place, so far. ]
That's true. I like it - trying to find way around shit with the wording, 's clever. Anything we can do to try and avoid people getting hurt, you know? Especially with those notes that showed up in our lockers on Monday.
Some of them are harder than others. I know - I tried to do what I could on my rough one, and I picked someone who I knew who could take it but... even though the vouchers help the dorm head, it sure as shit doesn't make me feel good hurting anyone else.
Yeah. [ that's all he can think to say to that, because he is trying so hard to make sure people don't get hurt. so, so hard. and yet!! anyway, there's a pause as he leans a little, clearly curious ] What was your rough one, anyway?
[ BOTH OF THEM PUNCHING DEAD PEOPLE. awful. ] I figured, at least make it fair, you know? Crow hits hard as shit. I'd really rather just be honest and tell people up front what the hell's going on with these, but, y'know.
[ people are supposed to LIE in murdergames and ichiro hates lying so here we are ]
In my defense, Bradley really did deserve that punch. [ it's light, but he also hates a lot? he's not a good liar and doesn't enjoy it either!!! it's not great!! ] ... At least it was just punching. And by now some of these are more....obvious.

Exploring the new areas. What kind of school has a lazy river? Seriously, we already have a moat and a pool.
[ he's griping, but there's a mild kind of amusement in his feelings anyway ]
