she will take him to the park, then! There's also a skate park of equal size on the opposite end, with what appears to be a free rental area for skateboards and roller skates! That, or someone just dumped an entire pile of them near it. The latter seems more likely, considering the park is rather poorly-taken care of.

At least the trees that line the side of the park are lovely at this time of year. The cherry blossoms are in full bloom... and coating all the benches with their petals. The good news is, it hides some of the graffiti! The bad news is "some".
she likes it here because of the cherry blossoms, and she wanders along the benches to reach out and take some.]
... What has it been like on the other side? We can only see so much.
[ When he learned it was Gerard, he was just hoping it wouldn't turn out to be like, a more even ground thing. Even though he knew Shenhe would've put up a fight anyway.
Frankly he regrets hesitating for so long about the killing game, but it was just. This game has so many teens. ]
Is it anythin' other than that you were just pissed for Setsu's behalf? 'Cause that was real fucked up to send to him, especially with that timing. You're lucky we couldn't tell exactly who sent it, 'cause if he knew it was you...
[ ...He would've taken it way more personally than he already did.
He had to talk Livio down so many times from this and that the last few weeks, he's so tired. And now himself being dead doesn't help. ]
I was afraid that Justice would be targeted for having the most points. If they died, we would not be able to revive everybody, unless a team that was high in the rankings already could do it. I knew that if one of them on that team was erased, they would be less likely to be targeted because it would cause a team wipe. [there's a pause.] I did not know that it had affected him that badly. I did not know much at all. I can't see everything, here, and our contact with the living is limited.
I was later informed that Valerie sent him a slew of horrible messages and blamed it on me, so perhaps you should take that up with her.
[she folds her arms.]
... I was not pissed about Setsu. I was upset because Jonas has sent me several letters and he is miserable because he does not believe he is allowed to be sad.
I don't control when the messages are sent. [but also:] I may have taken out my frustrations with not being able to help Jonas on the person who caused his pain. I did not send anything further, and he didn't know it was from me. Though, trust me. I have been appropriately scolded.
[she's been yelled at a lot for being mean.]
I am sorry that it made things difficult for you. But Livio does not come first for me. Perhaps he would have, if you had been able to tell me.
Lambda didn't hesitate to say even a blind person could see it. I don't exactly keep it a secret and always go out of my way to make sure we're in the same spot on Thursdays.
[ Still unenthused and firing back to this out of snappiness, but it's at least... more... staticky snappy and less full anger. ]
I don't know exactly all they talked about, but Livio wouldn't ever take pride in that shit.
[ Scowling. ]
And shut the hell up, a huge portion of the reason why frog prince got sent off to execution was because Nahri was fucking pissed at them and didn't let him go the whole trial. Because they killed you.
[ We didn't get THAT close but with the whole... week. And you just told me about how you changed your mind and wanted to live. No fucking shit, I felt like hell.
And then cue him learning it's Froggy, a team he can't morally erase, on the same week gy started telling him to keep frogs alive... ]
[We may be gone forever. But we may not. there's a pause, and she reaches up to take a blossom from one of the low hanging branches. she turns back to him, and holds it out.]
I'd like to make the most of my time I have left, with the people I care about. It has been hard to watch from the other side of the screen.
w6, SUNDAY
she will take him to the park, then!

New places per week. Lookin' around those places. Dealin' with Wednesday tasks. Hoping someone you like doesn't die on Thursday. The whole weekend.
Rinse and repeat.
no subject
I'm sorry to have left you all so early. I tried to come back. [...] I would have taken the burden of earning us points, had Gerard not killed me.
no subject
Was thinkin' of how to go around askin' if you'd risk your life with me to grab points on Nahri and Vash's behalf, if you didn't kick it so early.
no subject
Gerard put me to sleep. I was so angry to wake up here.

no subject
[I don't know that I regret that.
she tilts her head back.] I have been angry about a lot of things. But this probably does not surprise you.
no subject
But he sighs, grimacing and staring at her. ]
Did you send a text to Livio tellin' him that he should let your team kill him?
no subject
Yes. [she glances at him.] I can explain why, if you'd like, but I'd understand if you weren't interested in hearing about it.
no subject

[ He's still highly unenthused but is giving her a listen because she's his teammate, former or otherwise. His expression twists a bit though. ]
What's Jonas got to do with the message itself?
[ He does also feel bad about Jonas though. I tried to even it out but Livio comes first for me. ]
no subject

no subject
[she is kind of just tired looking, now. worn down.] You can be angry at me, but I am not solely responsible for Livio being sad, Wolfwood.
no subject
[ Unfortunately this did... make him pretty mad due to reasons. ]
I'm not the one that deserves an apology.
no subject
[Nobody was this angry about my death. It was for the greater good, Shenhe. You were erased because you were likely to kill.]
I hope that he apologized to Jonas and his team.
no subject
[ Scowling. ]
And shut the hell up, a huge portion of the reason why frog prince got sent off to execution was because Nahri was fucking pissed at them and didn't let him go the whole trial. Because they killed you.
no subject
[a pause. she takes a second to just kind of be sad about that.]
Were you? [this is genuinely curious.]
no subject
[ We didn't get THAT close but with the whole... week. And you just told me about how you changed your mind and wanted to live. No fucking shit, I felt like hell.

no subject
You were right about the red ropes not working here. [she's not wearing them, so.] I would have liked to spend more time with you.
[haha yeah guess who was upset that the gy had to tell the living to keep froggystyle alive.]
no subject
Well, we're here now.
no subject
[We may be gone forever. But we may not. there's a pause, and she reaches up to take a blossom from one of the low hanging branches. she turns back to him, and holds it out.]
I'd like to make the most of my time I have left, with the people I care about. It has been hard to watch from the other side of the screen.
no subject
Because Wolfwood isn't a quitter and he sure as hell isn't going to settle for less when he still has a reason to go back.
He looks at this blossom. He saw it in Haru's memories. ]
So don't say it like there's a countdown goin' on.
no subject
Alright. I won't. [...] You were much nicer when you were in love with me.
[this is. a joke, it's a bad joke but it's a joke and she's trying.]
