museum heist-- i mean tour

[sharplydressed]

[NINJA CLAN, HERE HE STANDS...

In front of a museum whose current exhibit is dedicated to the preservation of the pioneer way of life. Yep, it's an old pioneer farm-styled interactive exhibit complete with hay bale jumps, candle-making tables, ye olde laundry demonstrations, butter churning, and stupid outfits. Kashuu's nose is wrinkled, but between this and some of the other things on the to-do list...

Well.

The choice clearly makes itself, here.

He's sure not going down alone though, so the first person he sees (rip Koga) is going to get a little "COME OVER HERE, NEW FRIEND" wave.]

So. You here for the tour, or d'you wanna give me a little help?

[roughplayer]

[ Drat, he wanted someone to give a tour to, but instead it's another would-be museum curator. You'll be Red-Eyes, dear Kashuu. Not that's he's any good either, but with everyone doing tasks, actual people to give a tour to are few and far in-between. He could be one, but he'd get bored fast? Shit like this makes you zone out. ]

...Take it.

[ It's a mic headset with what looks like the plainest mp3 player to ever exist in this century. Koga's got one too and his ends up looking like a silly headband that's just barely able to keep back his mop of fluffy hair. ]

These are gonna be recording us for audio tours. That way, we can pretend eachother's the visitor or some crap like that... This looks boring, let's only suffer through it once.

[ Helping, in other words! ]

[sharplydressed]

[A BRILLIANT PLAN. He takes the mic headset and plainass mp3 player without fuss, trying to settle the band over his hair in a way that won't mess it up... despite the fact that there are like, zero people here to notice a few stray bits sticking out here or there. He's nothing if not dedicated, okay.]

Hah, you won't hear me complaining about that.

[Only going through it once, that is. He'll complain about everything else to make up for it!]

I guess we can just alternate from exhibit to exhibit? This stupid thing is only gonna be here for another week anyway, so I reeeally doubt anyone's gonna actually listen unless Zee adds "die of boredom" to the list or something.

[roughplayer]

[ koga roll his eyes a little at the hair fussing-- dude it's just him, it looks fine... but anyway, that works for him. ]

Yeah. We might as well be the best damn tour guides, 'cuz who'd pay money to see something like this?

[ The logical answer is "kids on fields trips" for history class or ultra nerds who want to be uptight butts about accuracy, but anyway. NOONE'S HERE, KOGA'S RUNNING OFF TO THE HAY BALES. ]

I'm not gonna die of boredome before that hack puts it on the list. Dibs on the thing I can recognize first!

[ Order, what order? ]

[sharplydressed]

[IT'S NEVER "JUST ONE PERSON" he's constantly on guard against flyaways okay constantly...

But either way, Koga can have all the hay bales he wants! Kashuu's just going to mosey on along after him at a much more leisurely pace, peeking into a few of the other exhibits as they go. Who even does unsupervised candlemaking?? They're going to die for sure.]

What's even the point of this stuff? Was this supposed to be like, medieval entertainment or something?

[THOSE DATES ARE A LITTLE OFF but look, anything earlier than twenty years ago is ancient history in equal measures.]

6/22 or thereabouts

[idolworship]

😘
free today?

[roughplayer]

Huh, I'd swipe left but this ain't Tinder. What kind of lunch invitation is that.

[idolworship]

because it's a date invitation, of course

( a joke, technically, but you never know with him )

[roughplayer]

You're making me feel cheap, you piece of crap.

[idolworship]

would you prefer dinner?

6/23

[usurpers]

thought you’d want to see how he’s doing

[ and eren sends a video attached:

and in this video is eren huffing erratically with a grin so wide, his face streaked
and wearing a germany flag-cape over his platinum jersey, holding his phone up with one hand and with the other, crouched onto the apartment floor and hugging not one, but two dogs: titan and a creamy colored young old pitbull boxer mix with bright blue eyes that, quickly, is noticeable enough to be a lot more hyperactive. they’re both wearing germany bandanas with doggy grins. ]

You guys know Titan, [ BREATHE ] but this is Kaiser. [ BREATHE AGAIN, only to put something on tv, but too late, he takes an even deeper breath and starts speed talking. the dogs already begin to whine from the minute he starts onward, like dogs that have something to say but can’t say it. ]

Germany’s last chance at a saving win, Kroos stands over the ball free-kick on the left of the Sweden area, Kroos rolls the ball to Reus, he kills the pass, Kroos goes for the shot and— Toni Kroos!! The games last minute!! TOR GOAL.

[ there’s a pause short enough only for the dogs to lift their heads as this scene replays on the tv behind them with the speakers silent— until they howl. then the speakers blare gOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAL and so does eren, yelling with them and shaking the camera and there’s a lot of bouncing until the dogs pile on him for making such a worrying racket. ]

[roughplayer]

[ good thing koga is not dumb when it comes to some sports stuff because being a secretary means you can't be culturally dead. he's got the most skeptical look at the first few seconds of this video though, because holy heck eren he thought people like you were a myth, lost to the abyss thanks to retrospec/recolle/hackers??? trying to cut off its population from the outside world and non-users.

then he sees the dogs. skeptical face changes to an amused one, because wow they really do look happy with him, especially kaiser. again, dogs probably can't appreciate sports as much as their owner does, but it's charming.

finally, the goal howl. that... is a thing, which warrants a response. ]

Fucking incredible.

[ Attached to this message is a selfie of Koga, haven fallen off of the couch and half-sprawled on the floor with an unexpected grin. Morrigan the cat is caught in the shot with a paw on koga's shoulder, wondering why dog boy has fallen but not gotten back up. ]

[usurpers]

[ perfection. he’s satisfied. while it’s going to take some to ease off the gas (and get the dogs to ease off, too), eren sprawls on his floor by the couch with his new dog pile— titan has liked serving as a pillow since he was a kid, while kaiser gets some time on his belly to pant off the exhaustion. they did so much. but he swears the mut doesn’t know how big he is! ]

morrigan can’t do that.

[roughplayer]

Cats don't follow rules, you know.

I think he was checking for signs of life but now I got him trapped in my arms so close enough? If only you could teach cats about sports.

[usurpers]

I respect them for that.

and, well. you can always trick them into it.

[ ]

backdated to uhhh 6/28 if that's cool?

[adoringpast]

im just wondering though
have you remembered anything so far?
since it's almost the end of the month and all
just checking

[roughplayer]

Some shit called a "Dream Festival". Dreamfes? I even remembered a pyramid chart to go with it.

[adoringpast]

oh
well fuck
you really are from the same world as me

[roughplayer]

Didn't you assume that already, dumbass? Anyway I should be saying fuck because this is Japanese idol competition bullshit.

[adoringpast]

i just needed some confirmation, okay? cut me some fucking slack here
but no, there's more to that
it's most likely implemented in the school we all used to go in our memories

7/18

[adoringpast]

oi kaz
got somethin for you
you'll have to get it at RAMEN though since im swamped with work rn, my bad
feel free to feed your friends or even kei-san with it, but i think the latter would shrivel up and die from the taste of sugar lmao

but yeah, happy birthday

[ it's not really a cake but rather a fruit tart, and it's waiting in the restaurant's fridge, hopefully not tampered with hot sauce and claimed as kei's own. it's made with fresh fruit too, so you know it's healthy...! ]

7/26

[livingimpaired]

Forgive me for taking so long, Kazuki Oogami.
Mizuki gave me the cake and I thought of what I should give you.
It seems like we are both feeding you.
Please enjoy a second cake.

And happy birthday.

[ The one is a monstrosity with hot sauce poured all over it. ]

8/7~8/8ish

[clothes]

[ along with the text message is a picture of a gwumpy wittle girl, her wittle face set into the most miserable frown. someone got body-snatched. ] Remember what you said about someone in Retrospec listening in and taking our terrible ideas. [ he hopes koga feels good about being right!! because akutagawa sure doesn't!! go ahead, write your call-out post wanko... he deserves it. ]

[roughplayer]

[ the call-out will come soon! but first: ]

Yeah.

Oh.

Holy shit. Are you actually stuck in that little girl's body?

[clothes]

Yes, unfortunately. I was under the impression that upon awakening, we would be returned to our original bodies/normal lives, but that isn't the case with me.
