Comments

week 0, monday

[diluvian]

[ lambda is chilling on a swing. she's resting after a jog, but she kind of looks annoyed about it, if alex can see the annoyance behind the sunglasses lambda is still wearing. ]

I can't believe this.

[camena]

[ alex comes over and hops up onto the swing beside her. standing on it. she is Rebellious ]

What's wrong?

[diluvian]

[ lambda likes a little rebellion in a girl, so that's fine. ]

They took away my stamina, too.

week 0: friday

[camena]

I thought it might... take longer. For this to start.

[ hello, she hates this, how are you ]

[diluvian]

[ lambda is terrible and doesn't seem any different than usual. sun glasses on, neutral, cool (temperament). ]

It seems like someone wants to win.

[camena]

[ she's cool and powerful and we respect her ]

We all do. But there are different... There are other ways to do it.

week 0, sunday

[diluvian]

[ lambda is lazing on a couch in ikea. she seems unbothered by what had to do in selfie world. ]

Are you relieved the weekend is almost over?

[ casually, as if she didn't just choke out a girl today. ]

[camena]

[ ma'am. ]

I... No? Nothing that happened is—none of it goes away.

Are you okay? [ well, she seems fine, but ]

[diluvian]

I'm annoyed, but I'm fine.

[ she isn't hurt or in pain. ]

It might not go away, but at least it's not going to be another day of murder unless someone breaks the rules.

week 1, saturday

[diluvian]

[ she doesn't know how to think about this result? she's very grateful for her sunglasses right now.

when she sees alex, she manages an offhand: ]

The majority vote did it.

[ it made sense and yet, ]

[camena]

[ alex gives a small nod... ]

Yeah. It felt like we were circling it for a long time, but... Doesn't feel great.

[diluvian]

It doesn't.

[ she'll agree with that much. ]

I don't know how much I wanted that to happen.

week 2: monday

[camena]

[ okay. i'm afraid but unfortunately alex comes up to lambda. and kabedons her. the emotions are Normal about it. ]

Hey. See anything cool so far, this week? [ new locations! ]

[diluvian]

[ HELP

lambda's emotions are cool and collected and controlled as a default, but the kabedom gets a blip of genuine surprise with an undercurrent of amusement. ]

I didn't think you had this in you, Alex.

[ this is not an answer to the question. ]

[camena]

[ she is truly not even thinking about what she's doing so she just? hm? huh? what? ]

... Asking your opinion?

week 2: friday

[camena]

[ alex is sitting by the canals with one knee pulled up to her chest. the emotions here are. bad? bad. just bad. ]

... Hey.

[diluvian]

[ lambda's emotions are kept very, very tight, very controlled, like a wave that's being kept back from crashing onto shore. ]

Hey. This was a choice for this week.

[camena]

[ there's a lot of helpless frustration, and it spikes at that. it's not really anger at anyone, definitely not lambda. just frustration. it feels callous to talk about things like this, but. ]

It seems strategic.

week 3: tuesday

[diluvian]

[ they're not going to touch grass for a while. lambda has a vr set held in between her too long sleeves, and it doesn't look like she's going to take off her sunglasses before putting the headset on. ]

Show me something.

[ be less bossy. ]

[camena]

Hah, sure.

[ it's fine, alex has started multiple threads doing the same thing to people. anyway she puts on a headset of her own and it takes a second to get where she wants. because at first it's underwater, outside of a submarine. but just for like... a second. and then it's a nice little town by some docks. ]

I mean, I haven't actually been many interesting places, but—it's something.

[diluvian]

[ the underwater submarine catches lambda's attention more, but it's a quaint town. ]

If it's what you know, it's what you know. Were those two connected?

week 7, monday

[diluvian]

[ sometime when alex is focusing on opening her senses somewhere, lambda will blink into view.

and then immediately blink out. ]

Long time, no see, Alex.

[ at least her voice is still here. ]

[camena]

[ she brightens up—and then lamba blinks out again. ]

What—come on, I'm concentrating! Why's it like this sometimes?

week 7: saturday

[camena]

[ at some point before the party? or perhaps during a quiet moment? alex will come find lambda. ]

Hey, we did it. All our worlds intact and everything.

[diluvian]

We did.

[ at the cost of ruby... but they did it. ]

Relieved? Where are you going after this?
