monday - thursday (23) survivors Sunday's trial was only mere hours ago, but you find yourself faced with a new week on The Pygmalion. When you awaken, you will find the ship restored to its previous state, all areas interfered with during the murder looking mostly the same as they did before. Along with this, it appears there are new areas opened on the ship. It seems you have more exploring to do. The robot in the cafeteria has prepared another breakfast of various foods.

MONDAY MORNING (CAFETERIA)

[And like the bullheaded idiot he is, Jason Todd is... still not resting up. Not even after all the stupid tests he helped carry out during the last trial. On the bright side, he doesn't seem to be doing anything physically taxing. He's simply eating his breakfast while reading something on a tablet from the parlor, taking bites from his food and sips from his coffee in automatic motions. Nothing very interesting to see here.

Or, at least, nothing interesting to see until he looks away from his tablet to see what he's actually doing with his food — and accidentally jabs a fork full of syrup covered pancakes into his blind side. Amazing.]

MONDAY AFTERNOON (ENGINEERING DOCK)

[Later on Monday, it seems like Jason has discovered the walkie-talkies in the engineering dock. Naturally, this means that there's only one thing to do with them after checking one out via hand recognition. He has a moral obligation to transmit fart noises.

This is truly the pinnacle of maturity.]

LATE TUESDAY AFTERNOON TO EVENING (ROBOTICS BAY, W/ ADELINA)

[should anyone come near the robotics bay on tuesday after 4:00 pm, they’ll be able to hear a few noises. the first is laughter, excited and a bit breathless. the second noise they’ll be able to hear sounds exactly like this. anyone who enters will quickly see the source of both noises; adelina, holding the lightsaber that jason has lent to her, seems to be swinging it at cubes he throws towards her as he uses the printer to create them.

this is an absolutely serious training exercise, and she is definitely not laughing because of how cool this lightsaber is.]

Sweet. How many cubes have we sliced and diced here? Ten? Fifteen? Twenty? Actually— no. I don't care. Here's another one.

[... aaaaand this one is being aimed directly at her head. what an ass.

meanwhile, as soon as he tosses it her eyes are lighting up because she gets to listen to the nyoom sound again, regardless of the fact that it’s coming straight at her face.]

This sword is incredible.

[technology is so cool. but really, someone stop these nerds. there are jagged chunks of cubes all over the floor and furniture. someone is going to get one heck of a boo-boo at this rate. the dearly departed mad science squad would be shocked and appalled.]

bring the baes

[baptizer]

[ Yes, of course, she's going to follow the clangs and whirs of the lightsaber. It's a curious noise, but Adelina's laughter is what causes her to actually pursue what was inside of the robotics bay. She hadn't ventured here, so Elizabeth's eyes situate in wonder around. It was.. incredible, but when she sees the two having fun. It was definitely different. Adelina was so refined and Jason was... Jason. ]

Making the robots work for their keep during clean up, hm?

[ Yea... this place was trashed. She gives a small glance to Jason and greets Adelina with a nod. ]

[antagonize]

[If Jason minds the extra company, he doesn't show it. Instead, he glaces up at Elizabeth when she speaks up, having been looking at the 3D printer's display to queue another batch of blocks for Adelina to destroy. Can the printer permanently run out of supplies to produce items with? They're going to find out at this rate.]

If they didn't want to work for their keep, they shouldn't have given us the printer. Or, y'know, stuck us on this ship.

[Since, well... They're not even wrecking the ship infrastructure here like some of the conspiracy kills have. Those make a far much bigger mess than two nerds with a lightsaber.]

[bloodbiter]

[after slicing the one that was coming at her face (thanks, jason) she turns to elizabeth with a smile and a wave, turning the lightsaber off for a moment.]

I was planning to pick up myself. [a pointed look at jason. let the cleaning robots live.] Besides, this device is very entertaining! I rather think it's worth it.

[baptizer]

Comes naturally - it's the same movement. [ Adelina and her swords, UGH. SO ADORABLE? She does side with Jason on this one, though. ] Let them do their job. Keep your room tidy but everything else can -

[ Well, be dirty? She's a bit different than usual, more serious, more sarcastic. ]

This is the part where I tell you both to be careful - but... Jason, what is this made out of?

[ She's close to Adelina, nearly shoulder to shoulder! The two girls looking over the metal handle. ]

[antagonize]

That's the million dollar question, isn't it?

[He could probably talk about fiction, but then Disney would come after everyone's asses. Sue the heck out of Alice and leave them all stranded here, on a murder ship with no money for repairs. That would be truly tragic.]

If I had to guess, I'd say it's made out of plasma. But who knows what a "futuristic" sword really entails? Whatever it is, it's hot. Could come in handy in the kitchen.

[To, you know, instantly cook food or whatever. Maybe even burn it to a crisp.]

robutts

[hatslinger]

[ well, that was certainly a sound she wasn't gonna forget any time soon, so she knows exactly who she's going to find when she ends up in the robotics bay. she leans against the door pane, smiling with her arms crossed. why are teens so stupid and easily amused (as if she wasn't both of these things as well). ]

I see you're taking your maiming pretty well.

[antagonize]

[Because you're either easily amused on this ship, or perpetually upset. Might as well be stupid teen nerds when they can?? Or something like that. He's laughing at the destruction when Fiona comes in, but may or may not laugh a teeny bit less now that he's been reminded of the maiming. Whatever!!!!]

Well, you know me. My cheery disposition's indestructible. 'Sides— I got a pretty cool sword out of it. I think Adelina could attest to that.

[bloodbiter]

[a smile as she looks to fiona, turning off the lightsaber for a moment to greet her.]

It is rather incredible. Though certainly not worth...

[him getting maimed. yikes.]

Do you want to try it, Fiona?

[casually offers jason's sword without asking him, nbd]

[hatslinger]

Guess that's true. The price of cool is a hefty one.

[ really, though, his eye probably wasn't that heavy. when the lightsaber is offered to her, though, her brow noticeably furrows. she looks at it a little funny, making a long 'uhh' noise. ]

Well.. I guess it couldn't hurt? I didn't get a special prize for our fun little adventure. So sure.

[ she'll take it gingerly and push the button, watching as the blade extends from it. it really was pretty damn cool. something zer0 would use probably. and if zer0 uses something it's definitely super cool. she waved it around for a moment, a little unsure of what to do with it. ]

Uh.. okay. Batter up?

monday morning;

[thanatosincarnate]

... What do you think you're doing?

{ He'll come a little closer, just to see if Jason might flub up again with the pancakes. }

[antagonize]

I'm applying make-up. What do you think I'm doing?

[CAN WE NOT...]

[thanatosincarnate]

{ ........

ok jason }

You're doing a good job so far. Except now some of it is dripping around the side of your face.

{ He'll grab and toss napkins that are probably somewhere nearby in the kitchen at Jason. }

[antagonize]

Thanks.

[Sarcastically? Kind of. Though he accepts the napkins, carefully dabbing the syrup off his cheek.]

Maybe I'll ask you for make-up tips one day. You sound like the resident expert.

[Someone's salty about stabbing themselves with a fork.]

tuesday afternoon

[chiseler]

[...what the hell. He's following the sounds more than anything and when he stumbles upon the pair of them it's about the point that Jason tosses a cube at Adelina and the lightsaber cuts apart the cube. He stands back for a moment, observing the pair of them curiously before he slowclaps an applause to get their attention.]

Nice swing. [Though he expects nothing less from Adelina, considering. It's grinning to himself instead.] Can't believe you got to keep that thing.

[antagonize]

I know, right?

[He was already grabbing another cube when Luke started clapping, so now he's just... standing here. Being a pirate. With a stupidly large cube in his hands. Amazing.]

Guess Alice wanted Rhys dead so badly, she didn't care about losing one of her precious, special tools.

[Sucks for anyone who wanted dibs on the futuristic sword, though.]

[bloodbiter]

[she turns to luke after deactivating the lightsaber, giving him a smile]

Thank you. I've had some practice.

[almost conspiratorial. he knows about her monster slaying exploits, after all.]

Would you like to try it, Luke?

[this is an excellent idea]

[chiseler]

[Please ignore that his eyes are lighting up in unabashed glee suddenly.]

Didn't realize you guys were offering test drives. [Judging by the way his fingers are flexing though the answer's yes.] I guess if you don't mind I can take it off your hands for a bit. [Adelina please give him the lightsaber this is the highlight of his everything currently. Haven't found anything else to slice through besides the cubes?

robotssss

[missmaladroite]

[Even for Marinette "Fun Patrol" Dupain-Cheng, she has to admit, that looks incredibly cool.]

[She doesn't even care about the mess it's making, either]

Wow! It cuts right through it! It's like straight out of a science fiction movie!

[antagonize]

[Thank you, Marinette, for not being the debbie downer you were meant to be.]

Maybe it is straight out of a science fiction movie. A good one, I mean. Not whatever low budget nonsense the rest of this ship was ripped out of.

[... Gently leans on the fourth wall.]

[bloodbiter]

[she's mostly figured out what movies are, and science fiction is a pretty self explanatory term, so she doesn't look too confused. she does deactivate it once she's done slicing the cube he's just thrown so she can wave marinette over to take a closer look, though.]

It's amazing. The blade is formed out of some kind of heat... I've never seen anything like it.

[glancing at jason.]

What do you mean?

[missmaladroite]

Maybe they upgraded the special effects. [Thanks for clearing that up for Adelina, Marinette!!!]

[but she's definitely looking at the lightsaber with a lot of curiosity]

Can I try it?

robotics bay like everyone else OBVIOUSLY

[tevinteriscoming]

[Well, he was just walking by when he heard some very suspicious noises so plainly he has to go investigate.]

Ah, is this it? The fabled demon slaying blade?

[antagonize]

Something like that. Machias and Fiona have their own demon slaying weapons— this one just happens to make the most noise.

[Adelina, please make more of those cool ZVWOOOOM noises happen. Do it. Don't make him throw another block at her face.]

[bloodbiter]

[nyoooooom. she can take a hint.]

Isn't it incredible, Dorian? I've never seen anything like it!

[look at the stars in her eyes. this is so exciting.]
