Week 1

[iblistriggered]

Tuesday night

[iblistriggered]

[KNOCK KNOCK ON UR OFFICE DOOR around 7 pm]

[guileturncoat]

If you're bringing me food, I have to warn you: four people fed me today.

[Not that he'll turn down food, but it might go into his mini-fridge until tomorrow.]

[iblistriggered]

Aww man, really? Well, that's ok. You can save it for later.

[Silver enters, levitating a plate with a whole boiled dungeness crab on it. And butter! and lemon wedges! It smells really tasty]

Crab boil is tasty cold, too.

[guileturncoat]

...are those dungeoness crabs???

[Nevermind, he's going to eat some of that now.]

[iblistriggered]

[success

Silver uses his powers to crack the shell in a few places before Dazai can get his grubby power-nullifying hands on it]

That's what the label on the bucket said!

[guileturncoat]

The house must be feeling generous to give you these kind of crabs. You're super-lucky!

Saturday Night

[iblistriggered]

[Silver will peek into Dazai's office]

... I'm sure pretty much everybody has come to check on you, but... I wanted to make sure you're ok. Those burns were pretty nasty.

[guileturncoat]

[He'll wave to Silver with his now-bandaged hand.]

They were but now I have aloe on my skin and painkillers in my body and everything is okay again!

[iblistriggered]

I'm glad... electrical burns are really painful. Just more bandages for your collection, huh?

[a pause, then;] I know you probably can't tell me, but... I gotta ask. What the heck was that about? [Silver frowns] Did the higher ups think you were going too easy on us...?

[guileturncoat]

Something like that. It was just a gentle reminder that I'm supposed to be tough on all of you.

[He sounds absolutely thrilled about that, too. And by 'thrilled' I mean 'ugh'.]

[iblistriggered]

[Silver rolls his eyes]

You were being tough. Our hints came at a price, three peoples' lives were in danger, and the puzzles were tricky. It's not your fault that we're not behaving like the higher ups expected us to. .... Still, I'm sorry you got punished for it.

[guileturncoat]

...it's alright.

[The hesitation there is because he didn't expect anyone to say 'sorry' over it. What is this warm, friendly feeling he feels?]

I would rather it be me than all of you.

Week 2

[iblistriggered]

Friday afternoon

[iblistriggered]

[Silver managed to sleep through the whoooolllle water balloon thing. He still doesn't feel great, but he makes his way to Dazai's office -- with all the grace of a drunken bumblebee]

Dazaaaaaai. Can I ask a biiiig favor?

[guileturncoat]

...you can if you tell me what happened to you.

[Dazai has thankfully changed, so he doesn't look like a rainbow threw up on him.]

[iblistriggered]

Oh... why I... missed the thing. I'm bummed out, it sounds like it was a lot of fun...

[Silver's eyes are still a little glazed, but his pupils are almost back to normal. Almost]

Akira made some funny brownies.

[guileturncoat]

I can get you some water balloons later and you can dunk on some people.

[That story about brownies, though, that's concerning.]

Did you feel weird after eating them?

[iblistriggered]

Yeah, it took about half an hour but... it was the only thing I ate, so it had to be that? I felt dizzy and everything was really funny. Then I just couldn't keep my eyes open...

Week 5 - Wednesday - Night

[iblistriggered]

[Silver wanders zombie-like, wearing Leo's orange goggles around his neck, until he finds Doezai.

When he does, he holds out his hand, with a familiar golden medallion in the palm]

[guileturncoat]

[Oh hey, he knows that! And he'll take it.]

Oh? What's this for?

[iblistriggered]

[Silver's voice is emotionless and flat]

I don't want it. It didn't save him.

[guileturncoat]

...

Do you want it to?

[iblistriggered]

[still monotone]

It's too late, isn't it.

His body is charred. His soul is probably in some stupid fucking stuffed penguin by now.

And none of that matters, because the Foundation is going to come and kill you, and kill Marona, and if I'm lucky I'll already be dead.

[guileturncoat]

You're in a gigai, Silver.

Remove the soul, and it becomes a gigai again. Or at least I think that's how it works.

[And given that his power seems to run on 'if he can imagine it, it can happen', it's probably a good thing he can picture it that way.]
