[somewhere closer to evening, Steph will find herself SUDDENLY ACCOSTED while she is hanging out around cabin ant. it's fine, someone is just grabbing the back of her shirt and yanking her behind the building]
[who likes rain?? Akira doesn't like rain!! it's a good excuse to hang out in the portal, but today he is returning to cabin de chipmunk for whatever reason. now that Steph has moved in, it's not much of a surprise for him to see her there, too]
[at some point after being nosy and refilling his slushie at the slushie machine, Akira heads back to chipmunks. . . and isn't at all surprised to see Steph there, too. it's good luck; he had wanted to speak with her without the chaos of confirming curfew effects and fighting Sanji for slushie rights]
[I was too busy playing vidya yesterday to react to break ins, but! Akira saw them, and he seeks Steph out once she's had some time to get clean and decompress from. . . whatever happened]
[he finds her in the cabin, which isn't too much of a surprise, and he greets her with a wave of his hand as he rests his shoulder against the doorframe]
Well, first we found all of the sleeping people. They're all safe, we checked every single one of them. Even hosts are there-- uh. But I don't think that Blue person you guys said was in charge is there? We didn't see anyone that could be them, but those three girls were there.
[hi I got distracted by errands and chores. anyway on Monday, after eating breakfast, Akira can be found in his top bunk (????) with his wounded leg wrapped with sheets and towels. he is trying not to bleed all over his mattress]
week zero, sunday

I like legs, too.

no subject
I asked because I needed one back at the mansion, too.
[he has two now, but! he holds out his right leg a bit, as though showing off a prosthetic that he isn't wearing]
