WEEK SIX

16 Vacationers

Throughout your time on the island, there's been a steady rhythm; the murders, the trials, the executions, the clean-up afterwards that leave just up remnants for you to remember what was lost. This Monday morning though, things are different. The debris and any biohazards are cleared, but no effort has been made to repair the games at the arcade, or to restock the chemicals and damaged equipment at the laboratory.

Odd.

If you cast your eyes to the sky, you'll also notice that the distortion is also lingering—there's certainly less of it at least, a haze still lingering over the go-karts, one whirlpool lingering out in the sea. It could be worse, surely.

Though there's no new locations for you to take your mind off of all these oddities either. In fact, looking at your device to access the resort map area and scrolling past Kakapo's Nest triggers an error.

There’s one more, slightly more eclectic change: the kittybots, instead of having cute kitty ears and faces, are now without exception round-headed. This would make them look like ordinary robots, but their heads actually now look like a bowl of fish swimming, which occasionally form up into expressions. A change of pace for everything, it seems.

[plunges]

What.

[ ?????? ]

Since when was Temenos involved in this?

[chrysaline]

Oh, didn't you see about their divorce?

[ That was all over the network? Like so many things. ]

[plunges]

I don't check the network constantly.

[ ... ]

I haven't since Merlin died.

[ MARMALADE

NEVER FORGET. ]

[chrysaline]

[ She never, never did forget. But she still likes Xiao a lot. ]

Oh... of course. I'm glad you read your messages, though.

[plunges]

When they're addressed to me specifically, I think of them as being of high importance.

[ so thanks for that, mama psyche ]

[chosenwang]

I finally signed the papers and gave him what he wanted when he found a much better man. [ Woe is him! ] When you love someone, you have to let them go.

[dupiety]

Yes. Though I still care about him, even if we are in different relationships now.

I will say that my maternal instincts for you have not faded either, Xiao.

[I'm so sorry Xiao.]

[chosenwang]

[ wao that's sappy ]

You should spend your custody time with him if he's forgotten already. [ Smh ] But he has been busy with having a boyfriend and all.

[dupiety]

[He's too tired to be cynical right now.]

As you've said before, they all have to grow up and go out on their own sometime.

[chosenwang]

That's true. It's a shame he grew up so fast. I already miss when he was still innocent and cute. [ when was that? probably when they first talked about spin the bottle ]

[dupiety]

Alas. Time certainly flies.

[plunges]

[ HE IS SO TIRED. ]

[dupiety]

[lmao]

[chosenwang]

I can't believe you already forgot your first mom like that. [ Did he think Wang Lu was the mom? No him and Wei Wuxian were both daddy ] I know he left us for someone much younger in spirit, but you shouldn't forget him like that.

[plunges]

I don't even know what you're saying anymore.

[ HELP? ]

[chosenwang]

[ Points to Temenos ] Original mom, but he left us for Beel. [ Points to Psyche ] New mom, or I suppose Stepmom?

[plunges]

...

[ Oh? ]

You, Wei Wuxian, and Psyche?

...Alright, then. You still aren't my parents, but I understand, now.

[chrysaline]

[ They are so lucky she loves everyone involved enough to let them embarrass her for team bonds. ]

I'm sorry. He really can't say anything straightforward, can he?

[plunges]

He really can't.

[diabolizes]

Poke and prod him enough and you can get something. Promise.

[diabolizes]

No, we're your parents. Congratulations, son.

[plunges]

No.

[diabolizes]

[ boooooo 🍅🍅🍅🍅 ]

[townmusician]

What is wrong with you guys?

[smh…]

[chosenwang]

[ Wao. Why is he just focusing on that.

There is a pause before he'll give a wink. ]

Since just before he was poisoned.
