week 0, monday, selfie shop

[damp]

[ Rin is actually curious about this... But when he puts vanity aside when he sees Yuzuriha, looking at her. ]

Hey. Did you get your injuries looked at...?

[kunoichi]

[ let's multitask! yuzuriha drags him right into the booth with her by the arm, smushing up beside him so they can take a selfie together (like in an annoying big sis way) ]

Were you worried about me? [ awwwwwwwwww ] You're so cute!

[ she's also holding him firmly in place in case he attempts to flee. don't you dare. ]

I ran into your friend, actually!

[damp]

[ SHE JUST GRABBED HIM. He looks a little alarmed, but lets her manhandle him for the most part. ]

I wasn't— What? You met Haru?

[kunoichi]

[ it's because he's an easy target... somehow, she has the urge to noogie him into oblivion. touch week!! ]

Yup. Black hair, blue eyes? Not much of an expression?

[ lineface syndrome... ]

[damp]

[ A cool attitude and eyes as clear as water? ]

That's him. He helped you out?

[ He takes her hand in his. Just like that, without warning. ]

[kunoichi]

[ we get it, ur gay 😭 ]

Yup. He's a nice kid.

[ oh! he took her hand! she'll give his a playful squeeze ]

Rather forward of you, Rin.

[damp]

[ IMMEDIATELY flusters and lets go ]

That wasn't— I wasn't— It just happened! [ UGGHHH

He turns back to the decorations available. ]

Do you want to take a picture or not?

[kunoichi]

[ she just laughs, and eyes the decorations... ]

I guess we should do something fun for the photo.

[ there's one room with the ball pit and inflatable rings. she'll lead him there by tugging on his arm... then jumps in and tosses him a floatie. it's a bright pink flamingo. ]

C'mere!

[damp]

[ In they go! rin makes a face at the flamingo but wisely does not say anything.

He just picks out a pair of glasses and hands them to her. ]

We can match.

[ He looks around. ]

What kind of pose should we do?

[kunoichi]

[ she puts on the glasses. fair's fair. ]

I dunno. What's a fun pose? We don't have selfies where I'm from.

[damp]

I don't take a lot of selfies, really.

[ i'm pretty sure rin still had a flip phone in season 1. ]

We could... pose as birds?

[kunoichi]

[ i take psychic damage from the memory of flip phones ]

Oh! Good idea, it fits the theme.

[ she genuinely has no idea what a flamingo is, tries to mimic the pose of the bird on her sunglasses. leggy up! ]

Are these supposed to be pink cranes?

[ they're kinda ugly ]

[damp]

[ Help, he laughs a little at her pose. And because it's touch week, he'll try to nudge her so she's more flamingo-like. ]

They're flamingos. You've never seen one before?

WEEK 0 / FRIDAY

[kunoichi]

[ she'll bump into him wherever he is, probably because he's too BLINDED by his EMOTIONS to see where he's going... no i'm jk, but she does pause when she sees him, because i assume she can easily tell he's Going Through It... ]

...Are you gonna be alright?

[damp]

[ He definitely looks... sad. There's a fairly open regret in his expression that he tries to stifle when he meets Yuzuriha's gaze. ]

Uh, well. This is what we expected, isn't it...?

[kunoichi]

Yeah. And at this rate, it's going to happen next week too. And the week after.

[ she doesn't have much of a reaction to show him herself, unfortunately. ]

[damp]

... So we might as well get used to it.

[ ducks his head. man! unlife is so hard! ]

[kunoichi]

[ it's touch week so she just. reaches out and plants her hand on top of his head. ]

Keep your chin up. You're a man, aren't you?

[ she says with her hand literally still on his head. ]

[damp]

[ yuzuriha this toxic masculinity... ]

What's that supposed to mean?! [ he turns his head up in her hand, frowning up at it. ] I'm fine.

[kunoichi]

[ yah... she's toxic like that... ]

Alright. Tell me what you found while you were looking around.

[ she removes her hand ]

[damp]

[ He straightens up at the topic change. ]

One of the blimps had crashed in front of the bowling alley. It was still on fire this morning.

[ ... ]

There was blood and shrapnel around it. I found a white ribbon too.

[kunoichi]

...Huh.

[ that... sounds pretty wild. ]

A white ribbon...? That has to belong to either the culprit or the victim, right?

[damp]

... I guess so. Not sure how we're supposed to find that out unless someone recognizes it.

[ little does he know about trial ]

Did you see anything strange?

[kunoichi]

[ whispers they don't know...

...and rin probably won't enjoy hearing this, but, ]

I found Hikari's body just outside his team's warehouse. It looked like he'd tried to drag himself back to safety.

[damp]

[ oh. yeah, he looks kind of stricken by that. ]

Hikari...

[ give him a sec. ]
