w0, FRIDAY (continued)

[bindings]

[i keep laughing at my own shitpost. anyway, from here.

she glances at him.]

Is there anything we can do to change it? [like, they're dead, she's pretty sure that's just how it be.]

[westedge]

Depends if you believe we're dead, or if you believe the game really can send us back like they're telling us. I'm getting mixed opinions from everybody.

w0, MONDAY

[bindings]

[A TREE! WE HAVE A SINGULAR TREE

she is in the tree at the park, which you can probably tell because of her stupid arm danglies that are coming down out of said tree. hopefully it is not too much of a shock when she hangs out of the tree abruptly and holds out a packet of tabasco to jonas.]

For protection.

[ok]

[westedge]

[ i hate to say this, but he absolutely startles and jumps when she appears. ]

Ahh!! Jesus, Shenhe, what are you--[ and there is a packet of tabasco. okay. uh. ] T...hanks? Guess this could come in handy.

[ he can squirt tabasco into someone's eyes, he guesses. ]

w0 friday

[westedge]

[ he didn't have any luck in his own investigations today, and it means he's still wandering around trying to figure out what to do. everyone else is out and around, and he's at least noticed some in passing, but he's not thinking about that.

instead he's heading to the park and wandering straight to the single tree, not giving it a second thought before hoisting himself up into it and onto a branch.

he probably should have expected shenhe to be here, but he still startles a little at her appearance. ]

Hey. [ ... ] You, too?

[bindings]

[she is a little startled by his sudden presence as well, but she eases when she realizes it's him. she will help him stabilize on the tree, and then lets out a little sigh.]

Me too? [she's not sure what he's asking - she's already made one or two people mad today by being flippant about this so she's trying to... not do that.]

w0 saturday

[westedge]

[ well i am sorry to say but this time jonas is probably in the tree first? he's also flicking his lighter on and off as a nervous twitch, but he's keeping it away from the leaves. that's nice, isn't it?

but he hears someone under the tree and moves over to allow room for them to come up, already assuming it's probably shenhe. he does not have a cigarette because he did say he'd keep them away from her, but he kind of wants one anyway. trial rattled his nerves at the end just a bit. ]

[bindings]

[that's fair, it was. a trial. in all senses of the word. she is tired, in that overstimulated sort of way. so the first thing she does is go to the tree, and she's not surprised to find jonas here.

it's okay. she doesn't mind his presence. and she knows he won't yell or try to upset her, so she can breathe for a while. she crawls up, and settles against the trunk, closing her eyes.]

Hello, Jonas. [she says, voice quiet.]

w1, MONDAY

[bindings]

Jonas there is a park
!!!!

[i want you to know she added those exclamation points manually]

[westedge]

[ love that for her. ]

haha i heard
so are we going?
or did you beat me there already?

w1 friday

[westedge]

[ the way i almost wrote w1 sunday god. anyway after...all of that, jonas is making a few rounds in the different areas of the city. he probably makes his way back over to the park eventually? subconsciously, maybe, he's actually looking for shenhe on purpose. there's a little bit of a relief in seeing her and he jogs over to catch up to where she is. ]

...I'm really hoping nobody is surprised this happened again, but I won't lie and say I'm not extremely pissed.

[ and he feels like he can tell shenhe this because they have an understanding. ]

[bindings]

[you just skip us to the end of the week help

she's absolutely in a tree, staring into the distance. when she hears jonas, she tenses, and then looks down at him.]

... I wanted to see him make it. He was so afraid he wasn't going to. [she says, and her emotions are muted, but. she's seething. it's coming off of her in waves.]

w1 sunday

[westedge]

[ after the last several days, jonas has decided he is very much done keeping his cool about everything and hauls himself up into a tree in the park. maybe he's developed a super sense, or maybe he just knows the probability's higher than usual, but he's not surprised it's a tree shenhe herself is in and he kind of angrily flops himself back against some of the branches to sit. glaring up at some leaves.

hello, how are you, how was your day. ]

[bindings]

[well it's less bad than it was yesterday but not by MUCH.

anyway. she glances down at him when he flops. and easily enough, drops down next to him. she digs around into her pockets - and then hands him a pack of cigarettes. take.]

w2, MONDAY

[bindings]

[good morning jonas, we are outside the Sears. a person is talking to her, and she looks like she's about to commit violence because this person is trying to sell her avon products and she's just. not having it.]

I don't understand. No, I don't need that, it smells awful.

[westedge]

[ oh boy. there's a brief flare of ?! before he immediately steps in, a hand briefly lingering on shenhe's arm. ]

Leeeet's just walk away from that and maybe not cause bodily harm to the annoying people doing their job.

w2, FRIDAY

[bindings]

[she is sitting outside somewhere, holding a blahaj shark, staring at the sky.

there's just, like, bad vibes. it's not sad so much as it's worried. she's anxiously, grindingly worried.]

[westedge]

[ cautiously approaching...he settles down in front of her. ]

...are you alright? [ he doesn't know how well shenhe may have known buzen, but...there's always other people to be worried about, too. ]

w2 sunday

[westedge]

[ today was a bad day! it was extremely bad, and after some time jonas decides that he can't actually handle more than this for the time being. rather, he heads for the outer park and immediately scales a tree to hide from sight.

it's like he has a sixth sense for where shenhe is though, because he settles on a branch not far from her. his vibes are as stifled as possible, but he pauses to gauge her response. ]

...I can find another tree if you need space.

[bindings]

[he climbs up, and it's alright - her emotions are kind of broken right now, so it doesn't matter. the only thing he'll be able to feel from her is the desperate desire to cry, and the frustration that comes from being unable to.

she looks over at him, and shakes her head.]

... Stay. [she will even reach for him a little, if he wants. he can sit as close as he wants.]

w3, monday

[westedge]

we need a break
so we're doing something fun today
meet me at the monarch?

[bindings]

Alright. I will be there soon.

[and she will be! nothing special about her today but. like, she looks tired, just like everybody else does.]

w7, MONDAY

[bindings]

from user asoiaf:
It's Shenhe. I am here, if you'd like to talk. I'm not sure how you found us the first time, but I am somewhere quiet.

[westedge]

why would i never want to talk to you
do you have any idea how badly i've wanted to talk to you like
all the time?
can i see you again? or is this easier for you guys?

w7 saturday

[westedge]

[ wanders outside and crawls up into a tree, seemingly having re-honed his shenhe-tracking senses.

can she sit in the branches now? can they just vibe together finally? he is looking at her expectantly as if to gauge the vibes. ]

[bindings]

[... okay well she's going to try, but if she fizzles out and falls out of the tree she will just have to deal with the consequences.]

I will not miss being not solid. [she grumbles.]
