weekend 0, saturday, church

[turbulency]

[ we're in the church hello

geto is just staring at the altar where the bible once was ]

Everyone is really obsessed with the bible.

[trashprince]

It's a really important book.

[ caelus offers this up without being asked, no need to thank him. he only recently found out what a bible is and is ready to pass along the knowledge, free of charge.

he is also wearing this now. ]

They might think it holds a secret to letting us leave this place.

[turbulency]

[ NICE FIT geto is back in his boring black school uniform ]

That's not a bad idea. [ rubs his nape ] It doesn't seem like there's a lot of information anywhere else.

[trashprince]

[ don't even, geto is a whole look. a fresh look. ]

Have you tried moving past the perimeter? This place is designed airtight.

[ caelus refuses to let go of his intelligent design theory. couldn't possibly be a spooky town without any specific intention to it. penacony left its mark. ]

I don't know anything about the bible god, though. It doesn't sound like any of the Aeons I've heard of. If leaving is related, let's hope the book thief is an expert.

week 0, tuesday, winery

[trashprince]

[ kicks them both into the winery. caelus is there to get some breathing room from his barnmates and also consider the case of the missing grape juice barrels.

crimes were committed here. wine crimes.

the word receptacle appears in thick, sans-serif text on caelus' neck ]

[turbulency]

[ receptacle...

idk what geto is doing here, but he will just call out to caelus from the doorway. ]

Looking for a drink?

[trashprince]

[ in my day, we just called them bottoms-- /yanked off stage by a big hook ]

Yeah, and where the other barrels wandered off to.

[ the old grape juice is for everyone ]

[turbulency]

[ you're SO RIGHT! ]

Hm? Why?

week 1, thursday, pre-curfew

[trashprince]

[ where can geto be found?? because caelus is seeking him out, once everything has calmed down and cyoa-havers have had a chance to talk to their boyfriends closer cr. polite stuff. but now is time to see how geto survived. ask a few questions. make sure he knows he's cared about :) ]

Hey.

[ perhaps a villager house is most comfy at this most dire of times? ]

[turbulency]

[ Caelus is so sweet. He is indeed in a villager house, zoning out on a sofa. ]

Oh. Hey.

[trashprince]

[ why not? geto's been cool and he can't think of anyone here who deserves a hole in the neck.

well, maybe--

no. nobody deserves a neck hole.

caelus sits beside geto. ]

Is it okay if I asked what you went through?

[turbulency]

[ Oh! Yeah. It's affection week so he will lean against Caelus. ]

Sure. What do you want to know?

week 2, monday

[turbulency]

[ Caelus, the shadows wrap around you, and you find yourself on a street at sunset. You know this:

Riko is dead. And the curse on the ground in front of you means that Toji, her executioner, is too.

Except that isn't possible, because Toji killed Satoru, and there isn't anyone left alive who could kill him so quickly after Riko's death. So you run, heading toward the organization responsible for her death for answers, and there—Satoru is alive, surrounded by a room full of non-sorcerers celebrating the death of a 14-year old girl. ]

[trashprince]

[ distinctly sets this for after caelus speaks with gojo today or the tenor might be different! haha!

wow. that's grim. caelus has seen death but always with appropriate sorrow thereafter. the clapping makes him nauseous. the question gojo poses stabs deeper than that, mixing unpleasantly with the certainty that he could slaughter the crowd. at least he waits for geto to call the shot.

and he does. and it is against a massacre yet nothing feels any better.

the memshare spits them out. ] ... Why? Why did they--?

[turbulency]

[ His expression is carefully blank, but his rage is betrayed in the way his hands curl into fists at his side. ]

Her life was worthless to them.

[trashprince]

Were they corrupted by something?

[ it may have to be presented to him even more bluntly--the full capacity for human cruelty.

you may do the honors, geto ]

week 3, monday

[trashprince]

[ hello sweet omega how's it going??? jk caelus isn't that bad.

but he is hovering closer than normal as they explore the academy. they've stumbled over maybe one trap so far, easily enough avoided, but that means there are more. and it's his job, surely, to make sure nothing touches geto or his normal-sized ass. ]

There had to be a lot of people here at some point, right?

[turbulency]

[ ASSIGNING HIM OMEGA... He doesn't mind the hovering for now, idly peering at the teeth on the ground. ]

Seems like something used to live here. Just like the first island that we went to. With the animals.

[trashprince]

[ better than beta. ]

But the cult had the power to wipe them all out?

[ also this is our 69th comment so i have to do something and it's gonna be asserting dominance by propping arm on geto's shoulder. ]

We should probably stick together while we're in here.

week 3, saturday

[turbulency]

[ welp

what's his emotional state like ]

[trashprince]

[ standing. staring into nothingness, truth be told. the laughter is done. no more bright smiles full of malice at this exact moment. his tails are wagging and flicking gently behind him ]

[turbulency]

[ okay ]

Caelus?

week 6, wednesday

[trashprince]

[ can be found, sometime after party, wandering scawwy's grounds. he's semi-transparent but otherwise seems able enough. can't kick pebbles, though, as shown by how he tries and his boot goes right through one.

he glances upward when he catches sight of geto waaaay on his periphery. ]

Hey!

[turbulency]

Hi Caelus.

[ smiling... ]

Enjoy the party?

[trashprince]

I appreciated the invite list.

[ everyone there, naturally. ]

How have you been? You can be honest. [ caelus is prepared to give people an outlet right about now. ]
