[ i kept watching the mingle trying to decide what i was supposed to do here help. YOU TELL ME WHERE WE ARE BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW WHAT TILL'S DOING WITH HIS DAY NOW AFTER BEING STABBED
anyway fidelio's thoughts are just like damn this lad really can't catch a break ]
Well, that was a proper mess earlier. You doin' all right now?
[ well. there is. but his profile says he's 25, till, come on!!!! also help have you not heard him... here if you want a few not-very-spoilery lines. ]
No on the stabbing, at least outside Thursday nights. [ well, and one sunday. ] That one was new.
...Maybe look at it this way — if it had been mutual, after it wore off, you'd have to go through the whole song and dance of not knowing if there was actually somethin' there between you or not and potentially thinkin' there was only to find out you were wrong. This way you already know she's not interested and everyone understands the curse was responsible for everything. Less embarrassing than it could be.
[ after trial, he'll be out and about, though the dreamscape is different. it's a field, with perfectly round trees and perfectly green grass. the sky is a wall and ceiling, simulated with cheerful blue, and fake, painted clouds. all very artificial, like this.
till is sitting against a tree, but he'll wave at del when he sees him. ]
Hey, good work. [ no, this sucked. ] Sorry about, uh—everyone seeing that.
[ accidentally helps traumablast his cr circle in the middle of trial. ]
[ ...huh. looks around at the scene for a moment before coming over to sit next to him. ]
Nah, it's fine.
[ well. he feels pretty terrible about basilio, but it's okay otherwise. ]
Honestly sort of forgot about the thoughtsharing thing in that moment, so that was me own fault for pushin' you when I had somethin' like that covered up.
[ conveniently his maid dress in that art came with a little scarf so he really has been keeping this hidden the entire time till's known him. ]
[ really missing the context of things like clipped ears and decapitation scars here. it's worse than missing the context of trial stuff. he snorts a little, speaking indelicately, though without malice. ]
It's not really your fault you got your head ripped off. [ saying it aloud makes him wrinkle his nose. God, I hate this shit. he is truly so lucky to only be here a few weeks. a pause. ]
...Besides, you were just trying to get me to think straight. If I'd missed something with someone else, it could've been bad.
[ he is willing to more broadly blame CYOAs existing in general. this week has proved their potency many times over.
he slouches against his tree. ]
I learned my lesson all right. [ missing a GIANT SCAR... but. ] Still... I dunno. I get that it's for the good of everybody, but I wouldn't know how to find evidence for something you did.
[ he likes del, so even if it's temporary, it's just insane to think about contributing to his death somehow. ]
[ he does not have a chao or powers so he is just. trying to stay out of the way of monsters. so he's exploring the fair, squinting at some corndogs. ]
Man, all these places really got fucked up. There was a crater nearby and everything.
[ farewell, jamboree... and lemme know if you want a specific weekly effect or memshare etc wahoo ]
[ i appreciate you putting them at the fair so it's easy to get to memshare land because i totally want a memory at some point... what is my son's lore
and we can just have the affection one going because it's cute. ]
Frankly, after the investigation I did in that place the other week, I can say with confidence that it deserves to be a crater.
Y'know, we spend all that time trying to figure out what happened and who did it, but some stuff... [ he shakes his head ] Better left to mystery.
[ he does NOT want to know why there was so much omega slick or why people were high and anything else. meanwhile he has no understanding of the funhouse or how dangerous it is, so he'll wander in that general direction. ]
There was one a few weeks before that one that was even weirder, lucky you missed that.
[ follows along and i guess i will conveniently loss effect him to forget what the funhouse does until he's inside ]
Happened at the diner over in this area the week before we opened the tavern. Which was originally also supposed to be called a diner, that's how we'd always referred to it, but we felt like we needed to rebrand at the last minute after that to avoid the association.
[ he'll be over at the tavern but he's dragged an amp over finally so he's using his electric guitar. not blasting anything too crazy, but giving a good tuning.
he'll wave when he sees fidelio though, checking for vibes now. ]
[ the vibes are still pretty bad, but a lot less like an active volcano that's about to blow. there is a feeling of fondness that pushes through the negativity seeing till playing his music here, though, and he manages a little bit of a smile. ]
Hey.
[ sits on one of the couches for now, facing the stage like he's in the audience. ]
As set as we can be, I guess. It's gonna be a whole lot goin' down the instant we get back, but... at least if we pull it off we shouldn't have to worry too much after that point.
[ though technically eupha's group did the ass kicking and they just have to make sure that he doesn't get up again this time. ]
Wonder if this place is gonna stick around or not. Sort of thought it was, when they were talkin' about keepin' the redemption thing going for future groups, but. Dunno where they landed on that now.

w6, monday
anyway fidelio's thoughts are just like damn this lad really can't catch a break ]
Well, that was a proper mess earlier. You doin' all right now?
no subject
He keeps calling me lad... ]
Not... really...
[ he puts his head on the bar. ]
D-Did everyone see me make a fool of myself!?
no subject
Er... not literally everyone, I don't think.
[ brings him a glass of water ]
For what it's worth, just about everyone here's been cursed into embarrassing themselves before, so I doubt anyone's judging you for it.
no subject
I'm judging me...
[ he'll take the glass though, thank you. he drums his fingers along it anxiously rather than drinking it. ]
So that happens all the time? People falling in [ guhhh ] l-love and stabbing each other?
no subject
No on the stabbing, at least outside Thursday nights. [ well, and one sunday. ] That one was new.
Yes on the love, though it's... usually mutual...
[ so that was especially painful to watch. ]
no subject
Oh... I see...
[ covers his head with his arms and tries not to die. ]
It'd have been awkward for her if it was mutual so I guess it's better this way... haha.
no subject
...Maybe look at it this way — if it had been mutual, after it wore off, you'd have to go through the whole song and dance of not knowing if there was actually somethin' there between you or not and potentially thinkin' there was only to find out you were wrong.

[ absently rubs his neck thinking about it... anyway. ]
Yeah, that was the idea. Figured it'd be a good example too, when I actually did have things hidden that you didn't know about.

Was that the one with the smoke? [ till was in the lube fire ball pit at the time. Why can't people just kill normally?? ]
no subject
Yeah, that was the one.
[ honestly that is such a valid thought ]
Still don't understand what the fuck happened there, honestly, but I don't know if I really wanna ask either.
