week 0, monday

[ravenry]

{ she is rereading the powerpoint they were given, as if that could make her understand things more somehow. ]

Do you know what a 401k is?

[ an npc did explain it to someone else yesterday, but there's only so much she can absorb at one time. ]

[expiries]

...A retirement savings account.

[that's about the extent he knows about it since he's rich and doesn't have to worry about it. smh.]

Why?

[ravenry]

[ a rich white man.... the enemy (no)

shouxue doesn't have that kind of prejudice (yet). ]

I am trying to learn about this work situation. Much of it is unfamiliar to me. I don't think much of it can apply to me.

[expiries]

[tilting his head.]

Why is that?

week 0, post trial

[ravenry]

[ how are you doing, arthur?

shouxue's feelings are quiet, as she looks at the stars in the observation deck. ]

[expiries]

[he's quiet as well for a long while, pushing down whatever he's feeling. after a while, though:]

...What do you make of it all?

[ravenry]

... Worrying in more than one way.

week one, saturday

[expiries]

[he's probably just pacing around in the rec room when he glances over and sees her]

...Hello.

[ravenry]

[ pacing.....

shouxue will stand there and watch him. ]

Was it another farce?

[expiries]

Yes.

[sighing before he stops to look at her]

Do you disagree?

week 2, monday

[ravenry]

[ she is looking through the armory because it's new, but she isn't spending too long looking over everything. ]

This room is...

[ she doesn't finish her thought aloud, but she is turning around to leave with a weapon in her hand, just to check. ]

[expiries]

Is...?

[watching her curiously to see if she'll be allowed to leave with it.]

[ravenry]

[ as soon as she steps through the door, the weapon whips back to stick to the threshold. ]

Is probably still dangerous even with that.

week two, saturday

[expiries]

[heading into the brig a bit after trial, holding a bag]

...Hello, Miss Liu.

[ravenry]

[ she looks up at him and pays no attention to the bag. ]

Hello, Arthur.

[expiries]

Are you hungry?

week 4, wednesday

[ravenry]

[ somewhere in the metaworld.... this is an octopuff. peony petals form in the air before they turn into pink light, and a gust of wind picks up the octopuff to fly it directly towards arthur. right as his face. ]

[expiries]

[HELP

i rolled a sixteen so he dodges fairly successfully with maybe one tentacle hitting his face, and catches it even if he fumbles a tiny bit]

I - hello?!

[ravenry]

[ the octopuff somehow gives off apologetic vibes. ]

I didn't mean to. I was tired of crawling across the ground. .... Hello, Arthur.

week 6, saturday

[ravenry]

[ hello, arthur....

she nods in greeting to him whenever she sees him later after the reunions. ]

It won't feel too crowded with all of us again, will it?

[expiries]

[giving her a nod in return, coughing a few times.]

It does not, but even if it did, a bit of overcrowding would hardly be an issue.

[ravenry]

[ arthur, your emotions.... she doesn't comment on it, but she does look around for the nearest place for drinks. ]

Have these past few weeks made you more open?

[ that's one of the least stiff things she's heard him say. ]

week seven, monday

[expiries]

[it's mega park time!! he glances her way.]

Did you have time to look around here yesterday?

[ravenry]

Yuri took me to the north region, but I haven't seen every part of it.

[ there is so much ship to cover since she's been dead. ]

[expiries]

The north is... the part with ice cream, correct? There's a—

[that's all he says before they get stuck inside a void.]

...This again...?
