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?

[ TEETH GRITTED putting aside his personal grudge against wwx for the moment, being entirely pragmatic: ]

Personally, I'd warn against trusting our dear overseer's insight too much. He was very insistent that he has no answers, and seems to be providing advice mostly in response to our actions -- reactive, rather than providing any new information. Of course, I could be wrong, but it may only be a feedback loop based on Mr. Aventurine's own confidence that's causing him to come across as confident in Mr. Aventurine and Amano-san's pairing.

That's what Nico said, too. . .

[and he has no counter for it, so he just gives a tiny, helpless shrug]

Then in the end, my argument is mostly. . . gut instinct?

[this DEMONSTRABLY HAS NOT HELPED HIM]

... gut instinct.

[ The way he repeats it probably sounds like he's about to shoot it down, but Rom just smiles afterward. ]

Very well. Intuition, too, is a valuable skill. If you've made your mind on that basis, that's valid in its own way.

[puffing up a little, as if expecting an argument, prepared to defend himself and his (proven to be incorrect) gut instincts—]

[but none comes, and he is left blinking in open bemusement instead]

Oh.

[. . .]

. . . well! It's what I'm going with this time.
