[harrow is now freshly changed from her horrible pink jumpsuit and is instead wearing all black - a button down, pants, and dramatic looking robes - decorated all over with bone.

there's still not much space to explore, but harrow is going to go ahead and do it. you can find her in any of the common areas, opening drawers and cabinets and taking pictures on her phone or typing something down. when someone else walks into the room, she abruptly puts her phone away like she was doing something she isn't supposed to.]

[refate]

[ yoru waddling ahead of him with the interest of a kindergartner wanting to stick his little hands in everything, kon is also redressed, meandering after him. there's a beat when harrow seems like a kid caught with her hand in the cookie jar, but he doesn't comment on that. ]

Don't mind us, just getting a feel for the place.

[ yoru chirps with curious glee: ] Bones!

[outsidebones]

...Ah. What is that thing?

[she squints, going to look at it, curious.]

[refate]

Robot with artificial intelligence. He was smarter, before, but probably arriving here reverted him back to his early learning stages.

Think he likes your bones. Yoru, no touching. [ said robot pulls up short, obeying but peering up at harrow with interest. ]

wk 0, saturday post-trial

[refate]

[ out in the void we go. kon is restless and wandering, having left yoru in his dorm room for the time being, displeased overall but trying to work the energy out. it involves a lot of walking through the shopping mall, in the dorm halls, throughout the college campus, instead of jittering in one place.

not really surprised when he runs into anybody, considering. but hey harrow. ]

I feel like I just aged ten years in nine hours.

[outsidebones]

[she's a little prickly, her demeanor having gone aloof and cold.]

Yes, did you? It was interesting.

[refate]

[ this doesn't seem to bother him much. ]

I'm not sure if "interesting" quite sells the whole circus we just had to conduct, but it is at least a word for it.

[outsidebones]

Put aside the absurdity of circumstances. They goaded him into killing by giving him that information, and then they goaded us into exposing him and having him killed.

wk 1, monday

[refate]

[ might as well see what clothes have become available to them with this... sexy costume store. at least they have laundry, even if an arm has ruined everything.

noticing someone joining him as he picks through possibly offensive getups, he has to weigh his choices on whether this harrow is still acting weird or not. ]

I regret to inform that we're still lacking on real clothes options.

[outsidebones]

No? Some of these aren't bad.

[she pulls out a long black dress, only for it to have a plunging neckline.]

...Well, it could be rendered wearable.

[refate]

Oof. [ yeah that doesn't surprise him too much to see, but he comes over to pick through the more goth options. ]

Maybe they have a... here, something like this - probably have to find something to put under, but this could help cut the neckline. [ pulling out a mildly sexy gothass bolero ] God, we're in the fires of Hell and we have to layer.

[outsidebones]

Ah, that does look more what I am accustomed to wearing.

[unfortunately halloween costume is just harrow's look the sexy variety. i was going to say not as cheap but that led me to a revelation that its not impossible all of harrow's clothes are polyester. anyway.]

I am not afraid to layer.

week 2; monday

[outsidebones]

[kon can find harrow sometime on monday exploring the new island. specifically, she's in the aquarium room, and it sounds like she may be in there with someone else. she's looking into the tank of fish, one hand on the glass, talking as though it's to someone else in the room, but no one is there.

when he comes into the room, she blinks, startled.]

Oh - good afternoon. [even then she sounds a little oddly hesitant.]

[refate]

[

today's weird. kon is just going to preface every interaction he has with that thought, because he's really not sure what everyone is going to have or not have at any given moment. he lets yoru wander off to go press his face against the glass of a tank, raising a hand to greet harrow. ]

Hey, Harrow. Checking out the fish? [ who are you talking to ] Heard there's some wild ones in here.

[outsidebones]

[something about this reaction seems to set her instantly at ease. she sighs in some slight relief.]

They are rather interesting, aren’t they? What do you mean by wild, precisely?

[refate]

[ weird. he's going to remember this for later, but harrow is something that you chip slowly at until you find the right opening, he figures. ]

Deep sea things that look like they definitely live where the sun don't shine, mostly. Ever seen an angler fish?

week 2; saturday

[outsidebones]

[welcome to the void.

she is intentionally avoiding her room or anywhere else people might be having feelings in, so this is the best place to find her. she won't try to avoid running into kon though.]

...Hello.

[refate]

[ the void embraces us...

he doesn't try to avoid running into harrow, either, for all that he's mostly trying to walk some of the Feelings out. he at least isn't leaking them everywhere. ]

Hey, Harrow. [ little huff ] Walking all that off?

[outsidebones]

Ah.

[she's a little awkward because she doesn't really know what she's doing here. she just knows she's absolutely useless at being comforting or kind to people so she feels as though she should stay out of their way. especially when she's sad herself, but feels as though she shouldn't be allowed to be.]

...I'm not sure what I'm doing. I think Gideon is in the room. [she isn't even in there, harrow is just avoiding it in case she is.]

[refate]

[ there's a wry twist to his mouth. ]

Kind of the same, with Uriel. [ to give her time to grieve and be angry without him there, mostly. even if she's not in there, she's currently not here, and that's what matters. ] Not as cut and dry today was it was the last two. Lots of emotions running high everywhere.

wk 3, tuesday

[refate]

[ hi harrow, it's pre-CYOA bonding time - by which we mean, the descent into the memory hole.

while he's groaning and grumbling under his breath about all of the bruises they're going to have to account for, the screen lights up and begins to play a memory of his. it is so long i am so sorry. ]

[outsidebones]

[hmm, yikes. harrow will rudely openly watch this memory because these monsters are cool. why did her vagina form a black hole......]

What are those things?

week 5; monday

[outsidebones]

[she walks up to kon and bites him.]

[refate]

[ HELP the way i sat here and stared at this for like 10 minutes while eating.

this startles him but he's had his rabies shots presumably so. ]




Ow? Hello to you too?

[outsidebones]

[she pulls back from biting him to give him a cheery wave hello.]

Hey, Kon!
