w0, monday

[ballies]

[ IT'S THE ROOFTOP. this is where they will survey this new kingdom. this weird, hero kingdom. wow. ]

Oh. I didn't realise someone else would be up here.

[hanaban]

[ This weird, hero kingdom that was reduced to rubble just a few days ago? Hanako thinks it looks better in the night time when he can't see so much, just empty husks of buildings and the occasional lit window. ]

Haha, yeah.

[ He's somewhat surprised too, but he waves Tama over anyways ]

Keep your voice down! We don't want the security guard to catch us up here.

[ballies]

[ it's fine. no one ask about the destruction of the hero kingdom. nothing happened here. it's alllllll good. ]

You snuck up here? I just walked in.

w1, tuesday

[hanaban]

[ just sort of stalks her from ten feet behind on the streets like this ]

[ballies]

[ WELL OK

HELLO SMALL CHILD ]

…





Hello?

[hanaban]

[ HELLO ]




Where are you going?

w1, sunday

[ballies]

[ where is the tiny stabby boy? tama is wandering around to just... try and not overthink everything that's happened today? this whole weekend?

but if she runs into hanako, she'll check in with him. ]

[hanaban]

[ The tiny stabby boy is kind of put out that he hasn't been allowed to stab anybody at all, actually. He's just walking around the neighborhood when he spots Tama, startling slightly like he'd come out of a daydream. ]

...your secret.

[ Still coming out of the daydream. It's a struggle today. ]

[ballies]

[ honestly he could've stabbed argalia during trial and they would've been like damn. i guess. ]

... My chocolate?

[ hello. ]

w2, sunday

[hanaban]

Tamaaaaaaaaaa...

[ trails after her, this isn't very long after the execution, though he has to struggle through the crowd to get out from the front row seats ]

[ballies]

[ oh hello there he is. ]

Hanako?

[hanaban]

[ there he is!!! he breathes a little sigh of relief when he finally gets out of the crowd ]

How- how is Ryuki doing?

w3, wednesday

[ballies]

[ waves hands some vague time i guess so we don't have to decide exactly when unless we want to. ]

What're you up to, Hanako?

[ coinflip says it's the art shop, so maybe she's here for glitter and paints... we just don't know. ]

[hanaban]

Paint trap.

[ That's all the explanation she's getting. What more is there to explain? He's buying up all the remaining cans of paint left in the shop. ]

Can you help me fill the cart with these?

[ballies]

…

[ well ] A… paint trap. For…?

[ i mean she’s not like. going to stop him? she has no eyes she cannot see this happening (she and and she does she’s deciding to Not. ]

Uh, sure. Just these sized ones? Any bigger and carrying them might get tricky.

w4, monday

[ballies]

[ me hunting you and finding you one of my favourite scenes in the game -- hanako can fight tama trying to swipe the stupid comic scenes out of her face. it's not really working. ]

[hanaban]

[ Me sitting here having violent flashbacks to the p4 velvet room limo

Tama can try all she wants, but not only does the scene remain, but somewhere halfway through it, Hanako's hanging off her shoulders trying to throw himself into the scene. A lot of this he already knew about Ryuki: that he takes on so much, overexerts himself, bottles things up inside... The incongruency between what Tama says and how she says it... ]

...he's a masochist...

[ THE WAY HE SMILES WHEN TAMA SAYS SHE ALREADY HATES HIM ]

[ballies]

[ she hates ryuki about as much as nico hates will, and i love this scene because it’s so cute cries. also aaaaggghhhhh, she’s being climbed on. at some point she’ll shift her arms so she can support hanako so he doesn’t fall, or cling onto her neck and throttle her. ]

He won’t admit to it.

[ don’t make fun of the poor boy like this ]

w4, saturday

[ballies]

[ is the baby boy still outside the courtroom still? is he up for talking? or getting a tama!hug? ]

[hanaban]

[ he's inside the courtroom, still, unless the mods break down my door and go NO YOU'RE ALL KICKED OUT AFTER TRIAL

if not, he hasn't moved from the spot he was in when Ace's name was announced, whether that's right after trial, or late into the night, depending on when Tama stops by ]

[ballies]

[ oh boy. ]

Hanako...?

w5, tuesday

[ballies]

[ the beach is where they sit in depression and stare out across the ocean. or just enjoy the sound of the waves, which is what tama is doing today.

she will wave when she sees hanako though. ]

[hanaban]

[ Depression hours... It's so easy to lose time while at the beach, scrunching your toes in the sand, listening to the waves, fending off seagulls trying to take your lunch.

For as much as he was looking forward to the beach, Hanako just sort of stands there at the shore, letting the waves wash over his bare feet and soaking his long pants because he is not at all dressed for the occasion. ]

Tama, can you swim?

w6, sunday

[hanaban]

[ Ryuki sent him ]

Tama. I need to tell you something.

[ballies]

[ ? ]

What’s up?

[ me closing my eyes ]
