catch-all: nahri.

at this point not knowing what shitpost to add has become a shitpost in itself

week zero, wednesday.

[rewriter]

[It's post-mini event time! Monika is still trying to rub the tie dye stains off her hands when she spots Nahri. Hello? She politely smiles and waves at her.]

So, our first mission was... lively.

[ashmark]

[ nahri's hands probably still have paint all over them, but she somehow came out relatively unscathed otherwise. ]

It's a lively group of people. That's probably what they expected.

[rewriter]

[she almost cracks a joke about how they're way too lively for a room full of ghosts, but remembering how she ran away during the q&a......... she bites her tongue. help.]

Mhm... To be honest, I expected our first mission to be— meaner, I guess? But it was actually a lot of fun to watch everyone show off their creative side.

[ashmark]

[ sweet sensible monika ]

Guess they want us to forget that we're supposed to mad about being trapped here.

w1, monday

[ashmark]

[ i'm government assigning them gift shop. the colosseum itself holds little interest to nahri. ]

These dresses don't look too bad.

[ th. the togas............ ]

[rewriter]

[help. monika truly rubbernecking like THE TOGAS?????]

... Are they similar to something people would wear in your world, Nahri?

[ashmark]

Somewhat. We have garments in this style, but not quite as... revealing...

[ she isn't a prude, it's more morbid fascination than anything. ]

[rewriter]

Really? I think that might be the case where I come from, too... technically. But this particular style is a little outdated by, like, at least two thousand years.

w2, library

[ashmark]

[ girl time in the library :) nahri is very excited to be here ]

Is there anything in particular you're looking for? That you like to read?

[ that's for the clarification nahri but look. her brain can't keep up with her thoughts. ]

[rewriter]

[library! monika's mood is the emotional equivalent of !!!!!!!, just buzzing with excitement.]

I don't suppose you've found any poetry collections yet, have you?

[ashmark]

[ SAME GIRL ]

Can't say that I've tried looking for any. If it's popular, it has to be here, right? There's so many books...

[rewriter]

Well, I hope so! I wonder if we can find books from our worlds, too... I'd love to see what's popular everywhere else.

w3, tuesday

[ashmark]

[ wherever they are doesn't matter. because nahri has an important thing. ]

You do not have to answer. But what is... S&M...

[ MONIKA IS A GIRL SO IT FEELS LESS WEIRD TO ASK. she knows it's a sex thing. this is destroying her but she hates not knowing things. ]

[rewriter]

[nahri is so valid.]

It stands for "sadomasochism." The song is basically about, like, um... [she clears her throat, a little embarrassed.] Gratification from receiving and inflicting pain.

[ashmark]

[ after a second, it clicks, and it shows on her expression. ]

Oh. Oh, I had no idea it was about-- [ NOW SHE'S MORE EMBARRASSED ] I mean I knew it was about... but not...

[ her face is so red ]

[rewriter]

Ahaha, it's okay! [she smiles, trying to be reassuring, though her face is also a little red.] To be honest, I sometimes wish I knew less about it. Especially since one of the teams— ah... um, nevermind.

w4, monday

[ashmark]

[ hi we're in cloudtopia. in fact let's be at the rainbow waterfall. ]

Well this is a far cry from last week.

[rewriter]

It's definitely prettier to look at.

[She peers at the waterfall, frowning.]

I bet it's going to make things way more complicated, though.

[ashmark]

I really - [ deEP BREATH. ] - did not want to think about it like that.

[rewriter]

Ahaha, sorry...

w5, monday

[ashmark]

[ not me closing the tab instead of hitting post AGAIN WHY!! ]

They really want to make us work for even the smallest bit of happiness, don't they?

[ hi it's the hot springs episode ]

[rewriter]

Seems like it. I think this is just about the only reason anyone would have to come down here...

[their underground hot springs...]

w7, monday

[ashmark]

[ im sorry we're at the clinic this is all nahri wants ]

Need any additional medical attention, Monika?

[ whether this is a serious offer or just playing around remains to be seen. ]

[rewriter]

[nahri is SO valid. monika smiles a little and shakes her head.]

Ahaha, no, thanks. I'm pretty set for now.

You look like you're in your element, though.

[ashmark]

Sometimes it's nice to not use energy for the psych. [ idling going through the drawers. ]

You have more control over what you're doing this way. [ she has found the medical instruments and is carefully holding a scalpel. ]</small.
