WEEK 6

[grimgrinningghosts]

[Another week has come and gone, and three more people are dead. Nearly half of the guests are dead in a little over a month. The ghosts are still not reacting, and with Demyx's execution one has to wonder if the ghosts are even here anymore.

In the very least one more floor has been opened up: the trophy room, a shooting gallery, and a bathing room.

... Maybe keep Kiara out of the trophy room.

14 guests remain.]

[ SUNDAY MONDAY TUESDAY WEDNESDAY THURSDAY ]

[Thinking back on it... has anyone in this mansion hugged her since the last time she hugged her sister? There'd been people patting her back or shoulders when Anna's body had been found and she broke down, small brief things like that in the weeks following, but she can't remember the last time she'd been hugged...

She doesn't exactly melt into it, she's a little stiff an awkward, but she lets him hug her, won't try and push away at all, and that's really what counts now.]

I-I don't think I can agree with you. But.... it means a lot to hear you say that...

[toogoodforhim]

[She feels so small when he hugs her, and it stirs up something protective in him. If he'd been lucky enough to be a big brother, he would have hoped for a sister like Elsa. He wishes he'd gotten to know Anna better, while she was here.]

Let me believe it for you until you can, then.

[He gives her a tight squeeze and then pulls back, rubbing her shoulder with one hand.]

[defyingfrigidity]

[She doesn't deserve it. He shouldn't have to waste his time on a lost cause like this. There's no point and she should just tell him so. But Elsa has always believed she was a selfish person, and this feels nice, so for now, she doesn't try and push him away.]

... Thank you.

[Her voice is small, almost a whisper, but he would be able to hear it.]

[toogoodforhim]

Of course.

[If he sounds concerned, that's because he is.]

...Let's get out of here. This place is giving me the creeps.

[defyingfrigidity]

[Yes good, topic change. You bet Elsa will latch onto that.]

You're not the only one.

[She understands hunting for necessity, for skins or meat to make clothes and food, but this is so... absolutely unnecessary. It seems like it's just someone trying to make a statement to them, and she doesn't like it.]

I can't really see many of the others spending much time in here. I wonder what the point of it is.

[toogoodforhim]

...It's a show of power. Someone, or something, that can collect all these trophies is showing us that we're nothing more than game to them.

[He said bitterly, with a bitter expression.

He has experience with this kind of asshole remember]

[defyingfrigidity]

[Her bitter expression absolutely mirrors his now.]

If this is the handiwork of the "employer" that the Host talked about so often, I doubt he needed to do all of this. That's become very clear over our time trapped in this mansion.

[toogoodforhim]

People like this rarely do things because they "need" to.

[He uses the hand still holding her arm to guide her toward the door.]
