I want to think of it as 'biding my time'.

['Resigning yourself' is so defeatist]

Trying not to lose my mind due to the housemates I have, for one.

[Erin is sure this is all a big plan to whittle down all of their patience and endurance]

We're not the nicest people ever. Cram us four in that theater and tell us to live together and see how nice and orderly that goes.

Alfyn is the odd one out.

[Erin talks as if she wasn't involved in the shenanigans. The literal first post in our housing arrangement was she going 'SO WHICH ONE OF YOU WILL BE THE CLOWN KING' as a way to call them clowns, hah]

Oh, it can happen -- but then we make ourselves you all's problem.

[If there's no in-fighting, that's what will happen, no doubt]

Being in denial is stupid. Embrace your flaws and use them for your own amusement.

I'll do self-improvement once the current strategies stop working well.

[She decided ages ago she'd make herself everything and everyone's problem and so far she has seen no reason to stray from that]

I live fueled by spite, and spite only. That's the big one.

[She loves clashing with people and messing with them. Generally for her own amusement, especially if the other person is really earnest]

[Geto, come take a look at the pyramid. What's wrong with this thing, geez...]

This sticks out like a sore thumb. Why would a cozy rural town need a building that looks out of some ill-advised architecture book?

[personal profile] underinworld 2024-06-18 12:09 am (UTC)(link)
Is it working?

[Are you creeped out, Geto?]

Inside all you'll find is hay. Not the most terrifying thing ever.

[Also nihilism, but Erin already has some streaks of that, so she didn't notice]

Anyone with allergies already has a bad time four months every year, a silly temple won't bother them.

[Ganbatte, people with allergies...

Erin enters again, looking around like she expects things to have changed now that there's more than one person here]


Unless it turns out I see it as hay and you see it like something else. We know things can mess with our perception.

It's not difficult to be better than the village.

[Erin looks around]

I dunno, it just feels like this wouldn't be here for no reason. Unless...it's linked to why the houses are empty in the first place. I checked them while I invaded those, bipedal animals lived there.

[As usual, she's already trying to connect dots! But it's a fair enough train of thought, isn't it? Houses eerily vacant, and a building with mysterious purposes that has to go beyond just storing hay!

Not that the houses being eerily vacant will change Erin's decision to invade and take over one of the houses. A potential haunting or abduction won't stop her from wanting a good sleeping place where nobody died. Why did you have to throw Aventurine into the trapdoor there, Boothill]

Ugh, hearing that reminds me of Laudna, Ms. There's Been a Corpse Everywhere You Sleep At.

[Erin is kind of sure Laudna would say that chances are everywhere on this island also had a sacrifice done on it. You could be standing among the cows and she would say someone was sacrificed to the heifers, Erin is sure.

She likes Laudna, but also the way Laudna spooked her first meeting really stuck with Erin, haha]

Never heard of 'you're right but you shouldn't have said it'?

[Erin says as if she was the perfect picture of social grace and being considerate when talking. Don't dish it if you can't take it, Erin]

Well that's it. That pyramid should be demolished. If I had tools for it I'd get started at that.

[She really would]

You know what I never really understood? Why you have been targeted by so many curses all this time.

[Geto doesn't strike her as the serious kind of person whose reactions would be hilarious! Like Kanda. So she wonders why Geto has gone through at least three different silly curses, hah]
underinworld: (67)

[personal profile] underinworld 2024-07-25 01:54 am (UTC)(link)
You don't agree?

[please don't tell me I mistook geto for someone else all along in my memory i hope i didn't assign geto so many curses by mistake haha]

You're still taking it calmer than I thought you would. Were I in your place I'd have turned into a hermit already.

[Maybe part of the reason why she has warmed up a lot to everyone in Scawwy and the dead side is because she wasn't targeted by a million curses, really. It's easier to like people when they're not making your ass get inflated]

I'd like to think I'm 'prepared' instead of 'high strung'!

[Nah, she's high strung]
underinworld: (53)

[personal profile] underinworld 2024-07-27 01:57 am (UTC)(link)
Even if I were to be high strung, which I'm not, I'd be justified.

[would you be justified erin really?]
