MY FROG PRINCE

Comments

week 5, saturday

[diluvian]

[ it's week 5, right.

she'll raise a sleeve in greeting. she looks like she has a bag from pegaso hanging on her other arm. ]

They're safe for another week.

[ his children. ]

[frogzoned]

[ retail therapy.

he does, in fact, take a huge breath in and let it out like he could NOT breath for the past 9 hours. ]

Yeah. They are.

[diluvian]

[ they can only do so much in shibuya, so why not take advantage of the better clothing selection?

she inclines her head, a silent, walk with me? invitation. ]

Now that Simon's coming here, I think you can worry less. [ a beat. ] Should we tell him who murdered me when he arrives?

[ she doesn't necessarily think gerard should be flambéed for something he didn't do. ]

[frogzoned]

[ he will walk with her, sure. seems kind of nice actually. ]

I think I’m going to worry about it some still. [ because he very much thinks. simon is going to double-murder him. ] ... But I actually wanted to ask your opinion about that.

There’s an argument to be made that maybe I should claim responsibility. If not for your murder, I wouldn’t—- take that story from you, necessarily. But the aspects of it that ended up framing Simon.

[diluvian]

You could argue that he has a right to know, but if it's going to make him spiral and hinder our progress....

[ she's a bit too practical.

if simon is going to harsh on their vibe.... their codependency.... ]

Are you fine with him trying to kill you?

[frogzoned]

How much hindering can he really do, to be honest. He’s already been killed.

[ he kinda thought she might get what he was going for here though, yeah. ]

Dying isn’t my favorite weekend activity, but I’ll persevere. I ought to be getting used to it by now.

[diluvian]

If he burns down half of Shibuya.

[ that's half a joke, but she doesn't think it's too farfetched. it may not be hindering the point placements, but shibuya isn't a terrible place to be dead. ]

You know that's not a healthy thing to get used to, right? [ but she won't object. ] If he tries to murder you more than once, enough of us will stop him.

W5 - SUNDAY

[frogzoned]

[ hi. he will come find her later where is she ........ ]

[diluvian]

[ she's in her hotel room. she'll open the door for him if he knocks. ]

[frogzoned]

[ the ... the lambda penthouse ......

yes he will knock and if she opens it he will politely wait to be invited in because he is a vampire (also just a polite prince who isn’t gonna waltz on into her bedroom because it’d be fucking weird) ]

Is it making more sense now?

[diluvian]

[ yeah, it's nice, and four jocks don't try to crowd her at all times.

she will invite him in with a wave of her hand and then make herself comfy on her bed. ]

A little. It comes and goes, which life makes more sense and which doesn't, but seeing more of Shibuya is grounding my memories.

[frogzoned]

[ he’d complain but its actually kind of nice that the four jocks are so excited to crowd him. it makes him feel popular.

he’ll politely go sit somewhere else. ]

I think that happens - at least, it did for Ylfa and Haru. Hopefully it sorts itself out soon.

[diluvian]

[ gerard should be popular with his new jock family.

she frowns. ]

As if having to go through all of that isn't bad enough, they have to tack on side effects. [ but she scoots on the bed to look at him better. ] You reacted to something I said.

[ to a lot that she said but to one thing in particular. ]

week 6, thursday

[diluvian]

[ is he out of bad dragon yet

lambda will try to drag him out if he keeps staying in there, not because she shies away from sex toys or anything, but she doesn't want to have this conversation in there.

did he get healed? i hope he's healed.

anyway, she's coming to check on him wherever he is..... ]

[frogzoned]

[ he is out of bad dragon!! he will eventually leave the safety of the dildo forest. he’ll have wandered back to the hotel, though not quite heading back up to the room yet.

he is not actively bleeding or dying but he’s moving a little bit stiffly like he might be sorta stabbed still. but it’s probably fine. ]

Hello.

[diluvian]

[ she observes him for a second. well, as long as he's not actively bleeding... ]

I don't know if you're taking this better or worse than the other two.

[frogzoned]

I think we are all, um, going through it, maybe in different ways.

[ he seems sort of embarrassed to be assessed. ]

The other two are blaming themselves for something I did, in the end though. So really they shouldn’t ...

[diluvian]

[ get assessed, idiot. ]

Oh? What did you do that had such an impact?

[frogzoned]

I ended it. Not in a good way.

[ ... ]

I don't know if Nahida and Buzen explained, but we still stuck in these loops. And I finally had something that could end it, but the trade - of course - was that the only way to do it was to erase the Universe. End everything.

W7 - FRIDAY

[frogzoned]

[ hi. he'll just come find her after a bit. you know, last rounds and all. ]

For the record, I no longer have to speak in poetry.

[diluvian]

[ is he still more human? why is he more human? ]

The poetry wasn't as bad as the jokes you had to say, but I prefer your usual form of awkwardness.

[ hi. ]

[frogzoned]

[ imagine if i made like 15 icons to use them for 24 hours instead of 72 hours.

anyway .......... who's to say. maybe he knows, maybe he doesn't. ]

I'm not that awkward. and I was cursed! They had to be bad.

[diluvian]

[ it'd be very powerful of you. ]

I know. That doesn't make it okay. Right before coming here, I had to witness someone call a shark [ she makes a face here as if it pains her to quote whoever she's quoting: ] majawstic.

I didn't want to be reminded.

[frogzoned]

[ okay sorry but





he has to try really hard not to smile a bit at majawstic or at least the way lambda is saying it like it's physically painful to have to utter. ]

I see. Well, I'll refrain from now on. I suppose at least now you'll get the chance to go seek revenge for terrible shark-based humor?

[diluvian]

Don't make me kick you.

[ it's the gentlest warning lambda can give. ]

I don't want to get revenge for something as lowly as terrible humor.
