Week Six

[letsplayamod]

You've survived, for lack of better wording, the latest week of trials and tribulations. This one had been more costly than most: Typhon's machinations have brought your group to nearly half the size it was when Athena first brought you to this island. Whether it ends with him or with you is still too soon to make out. One thing's for certain. Things cannot be allowed to continue as they are.

Speaking of continuing, the next floor has been revealed to you. Just how far down this island goes is a bit of a mystery, but you get the feeling that you're close to something important. Maybe that thing Athena wanted you to find before Typhon does. You can ruminate on that as you watch the waters below. Waves still lap at the cliffs, but it all seems lower than it did weeks ago. Like the ocean itself is shrinking...

I'm taking back at least one terrible thing I've said about you.

[rockymountaindie]

You're a pal.

[sweetsynergy]

I'm specifically not, you said so in your letter.

[rockymountaindie]

Wh-what? Shit, you got that? Fuck-

[sweetsynergy]

Pretty sure everyone you wrote to did. Did no one mention that?

[rockymountaindie]

I-I mean, that's what they were there for, b-but, yours was- i-it wasn't done, I didn't mean...

[sweetsynergy]

Dude. Fucking chill. The worst has literally already happened, you CANNOT still actually be this wound up.

[tripartites]

Oh, he is. I have half a mind to start giving him chamomile instead of black tea in my parlor.

[rockymountaindie]

S-Sayo, c-c'mon, not you too—

[tripartites]

[ she just cackles quietly in delight and slinks off ]

[sweetsynergy]

Couldn't hurt, and from me that's saying something.

[Tea. The horror.]

[rockymountaindie]

You seriously underestimate- l-look it doesn't matter, I just- [ HHHHHHHH ] I was goin' through a few drafts, I didn't wanna- make things weird.

[sweetsynergy]

Oh yeah, wouldn't want anything weird on Godmurder Island.

[rockymountaindie]

Dude, fuck you. [ just casually ]

I mean I didn't want it to make you feel...bad or anything, I was workin' through my own shit, and...

And if I left something behind, I wanted it to be...comforting.

[sweetsynergy]

That ship sailed when you also left-

[oh, uh]

[crito might not know about the thing, huh]

....the care package. For Quark. Which is still fine, as much as it can be.

—Jesus fucking Christ I am so so fucking sorry.

[ he didn't quite forgor? but like. it's been in the back of his mind. ]

[sweetsynergy]

Aren't we all.

[still a step above Victor Frankenstein]

It's- safe, though. As much as it can be?

[rockymountaindie]

Fucking... Thanks.

[sweetsynergy]

Thank Quark.

[As usual.]

[She's quiet for a short moment.]

Thanks for at least trying not to make it weird, I guess.

[rockymountaindie]

[ ... ]

Yeah. Yeah, well. [ Thanks for— ] ...No problem.
