week three | mingle

[marriagebroker]

No outright changes this week either. Week three rolls around, braced for impact as ever. The estate is still intact, the contestants are still motivated, things are looking good.

Well, aside from the fact you all had a blackout this weekend. That wasn't so good.

Either way, when Monday rolls around, Wei Wuxian seems to be in a cheery mood as he greets everyone Monday morning.

"Everyone, come here, come here. I have an announcement!"

Better go see what that's about, huh?

Whaaaat! Of course it is!

[ordimame]

[. . . well, it did work out for her and Furina, didn't it?]

. . . maybe for some of us! [giving her a smile] But some people may need to look outside of that. . . "spark." Just in case, you know?

[hexensabbat]

Yeah, I'm not saying that's all we have to go off of. I've been doing math! Notice my math!

This is usually Figue's job so I'm working overtime here!

[ordimame]

I've noticed your math! It's pretty impressive math.

[says the guy who excelled in literature and history and not math and science]

And I think it's helpful when we've basically been given a logic puzzle. Things like. . . probability and numbers. . . are useful for those, right?

[hexensabbat]

... Uh huh.

Your praise no longer feels very praiseful.

1/2

[ordimame]

[HELP]

No, I mean it--! It's just. . . not really my strong point.

[he admits, a bit sheepish]

But that's why I'm glad it's yours.

[a beat]

[ordimame]

[an exhale]

So. . . thanks for sticking around to help us figure it out.

[hexensabbat]

[... Awwww.

She slings an arm around her shoulder at that, even though it does mean hauling him down a few inches.]

What's that? Real emotions from Edamura?

Of course I'm sticking things out! We're all in this together, yeah?

[ordimame]

[squawks?? in surprise?? but otherwise lets himself be yanked down to her height, shoulders hunched and back slightly arched]

H-- hey, don't make it sound like I haven't had a genuine emotion since getting here. I have!

[puffs. . . ! but relaxes a bit at what she says next]

And at this point, we definitely are!
