[it's no more unsafe than staying literally anywhere else, in Akira's opinion. if things here are like how things played out in the mansion, then by the time they pass out for the night. . . all the doors are unlocked, anyway]
[Akira turns his marshmallow over the flames before pulling it back and gently blowing on it]
Mmm. It should be the first thing we do when we wake up tomorrow morning. Write it down at once, and then share it at once.
[nods!!]
That way we'll all know right away if we're clear.
If it's at once, we'll definitely need more pens. [ dick is sitting back just watching the fire for a little bit ] I've only got the one. Could always write it with sticks. [ he hums a little ] So did the people who turned just pretend they slept alone every time?
[ mmm... yin yu watches akira turn the marshmallows over. he's even quieter than usual after the day's events, but, he's paying attention to the conversation... ]
...I believe it was like that on the island. We checked in with a map and had people confirm locations when we could, but, as you said, people are not always so truthful.
[Akira nods at Yin Yu as he focuses on squashing the toasted marshmallow between two slabs of graham cracker and chocolate]
Our first killer pretended she fell asleep outside on accident. This was before we knew about the effects, so we didn't question her.
Other killers just made things up, or wound up sleeping in the same areas as others and pretended to have the same effects they did. It's not a foolproof plan, but it's something.
[ he's stoking the fire with a stick, meanwhile, pensive ]
If what they've said is right, and killers here will be acting of their own volition, [ sort of ] there's a good chance they'll be better prepared, and a higher chance that people will be acting together and cover one another. [ thanks, bummer mcbumbum. ] But Akira's right. It's something. We need to take advantage of every possible edge we've got, no matter how small.
These effects are still rather new to me. [ yin yu ducks his head, a little bow of it. ] I feel as though I'm still trying to catch up with it all.
[ then again, they all...slept...outside, so what effects could there really be. ] The two of you were in your respective 'games' for a long time, weren't you?
You have both been through much. [ he sees.... also, there's a tiny glint in his eyes open taking the s'mores. he's come to like these quite a bit... it's a nice gesture. ] Though the time was much shorter, I'll do my best to be helpful to you all as much as I can. I like the idea of keeping each other honest, as well.
[ it's an easy agreement, even though if it was, the thots win, because they got a bad end. dick picks a marshmallow for himself to eat raw, like an asshole. ]
You did great last Saturday, Yin Yu. I don't think you have to worry about being helpful.
i had this tag finished and sitting in a tab in my browser?
[ ahaha... he ducks his head, a bit embarrassed... ] No, it certainly isn't... rather, it's more that I want to avoid as much of it as we can. If I can do so by helping others, then I'm glad to be of use.
[ for everyone, goes unsaid. for a moment longer, he's quiet again, content to munch on this tasty treat. ]
[Akira smiles a bit, lips twitching upwards as he extends his second marshmallow over the fire]
It's nice that we're all on the same page. [and he means that, too] It's better than arguing over whether we're being naive or not.
[also since a) the forest was maybe on fire earlier and b) phoenix and others disappeared earlier this afternoon, Akira is-- unsurprisingly-- perhaps a little more tense in this thread than earlier suggested. IT'S COOL. HE'S FINE. HE'S BRUSHING IT OFF]

[he cracks a smile, then hands his finished s'more over to Yin Yu]
We'll keep each other honest.
[and then, in an answer to Yin Yu's question]
Seven weeks. The island was. . . two, right?
no subject
For what it's worth, we didn't have effects on the ship, either.
[ and. since he is ASKING; ]
51 days. [ there's a weird tone when he says that, but he shakes his head ] So, seven weeks as well for us.

Just because you were only on the island for two weeks doesn't mean you also haven't been through a lot.
[reaching for another marshmallow. more toasting!!]

Does that happen to you that often?
[ the arguing over being naive. like. he's noticed it here and he is no stranger to it, but. curious ]

also watching for people to come out sounds like a great reason good job everyone. ]
no subject
[but he doesn't seem bothered by it!]
I guess that's just the way it looks to people who only know the part of me that argues for the right thing.
