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.

[ Is this a trap ]

I did put a ring on it. [ Take that however you want ]

Evading the question, are you? I’m really going to have to punish that little habit out of you.

[ He playfully shoves at Wang Lu’s shoulder. ]

I won’t be offended. Don’t worry.

[ Wearing the cheap ring just makes him happy. ]

Who says I'm evading? [ shhh ] Do you think that you'll succeed? What do you have in mind?

[ He hooks his arm around him to pull him close. Does Haruka want to see this? He'll get back to the actual question in a moment. ]

[ Sorry, Haruka. Wei Wuxian lets himself be pulled a little bit closer. ]

Of course I know I’ll succeed. I win at whatever I put my mind to.

[ It’s arrogance, but unfortunately, it’s not unfounded. ]

As for what I’ve got in mind… a genius never reveals his work before it’s ready.

[ He'll grin before his expression changes to something more serious. Searching Wei Wuxian's gaze for a moment. ]

We will be at each other's sides for as long as we're able. [ So... ]

[ Wei Wuxian tilts his head, eyebrows knitting together even as he smiles. What’s with the serious look? ]

I’ve said as much, haven’t I? Or do you really think I’m the sort of man who strays away?

[ Reaching up to cup his cheek. ]

That you have, and I'm not doubting it in the least, Wei-gege. I was just thinking that it might not be a bad idea to make it so. At least until we can get something better.

[ He smiles, leaning into that touch. ]

I look forward to what you’ve got in mind. Something a bit personalized, I hope.

[ Like a goth engagement ring. ]

[ You heard of goth girlfriend now get ready for goth gremlin ]

Something with a darker metal for sure. I'll leave the rest as a secret. [ Giving an air kiss and a wink ]

I look forward to it.

[ But nah, he’s not leaving it at an air kiss. So, he tugs hard on the front of whatever Wang Lu is wearing today to bring him close enough for a kiss. ]

[ What if I put him in a horrible fake bikini shirt?

It's a meeting so he's in his robes to look some kind of official. He will happy take the kiss and keep Wei Wuxian there as he turns his head to deepen the kiss. ]

[ even better

Well, if Wang Lu is going to deepen the kiss, Wei Wuxian has no problem with that. Actually, he’ll just go for tongue immediately, resting a hand on the back of Wang Lu’s head to keep him there. ]
