Maybe. Guys regret buying the bell?

[ (ZIA VOICE) THE BELL

they lead them over to the bar then and then drop into a seat. ]

[ashenvaliant]

[ he shrugs. ]

It's gambling. Not really worth getting mad at it for not being the hint we were hoping for. I regret being down a ticket, but unless we have serious need for it in the future I don't think I'll be ponying up any more.

I do actually want to get something above one ticket from the gift shop, and it does tend to systematically gouge us of currency weekly.

[ ... ]

Now that it's over, can you say what the Windex would've done?

[guestservices]

Nope.

[ they pop the 'p' in that, as they order themselves a drink. ] Sorry. 's just like anything else you buy from the shop. You really can't find out what it does until it's in your hands .

[ashenvaliant]

That's about what I expected.

[ sigh. ] Does that mean it could show up again in trials?

[guestservices]

[ they shrug, noncommittal. ]

Gotta draw your own conclusions on that one. Maybe you'll find out.

[ashenvaliant]

I expect with enough weeks and murders we'll find out.

[ he will get a drink and -- honestly just down it in one. whee. ]

[guestservices]

[ they make a noise that sounds like "oof". ]

That good, or that distressed?

[ashenvaliant]

Annoyed might be a better word.

[ (thor voice) another! he doesn't down this one in one go though. ]

[guestservices]

Annoyed feels about right, yeah.

[ they laugh a little and take their own glass, twirling it absently between clawed fingers. ]

[ashenvaliant]

Now I suppose we'll need to aware of regular framing, given everyone knows all doors are unlocked on murder night.

[guestservices]

I guess so.

[ yay, framing ]

[ashenvaliant]

[ yay, framing. ]

... Wonderful.

[ he has about half the drink. although to be fair, this one's about the size of a martini glass. ]

For those of you not watching over the trial, is it something like a week off?

[guestservices]

[ valid.

oh, yuri. aquila snorts. ] Definitely not. We've got other shit to do. I've never taken a day off in my life.

[ashenvaliant]

Never ever? Not even once?

[ sheila right, these guys should unionise. and yuri doesn't even know what that means. ]

[guestservices]

Can't. Job needs me.

[ neither does aquila ]

[ashenvaliant]

... That seems. Unhealthy. Even I take breaks sometimes.

[ technically, i guess, having a drink could be a break but they're still on the clock. ]

[guestservices]

[ they shrug. ]

Probably.


[


somehow, it doesn't seem like that really bothers them... or maybe they're just already aware... ]

[ashenvaliant]

You could do with a new job. But it’s not that easy, is it?

[ siiip. ]

[guestservices]

I'm nothing if not dedicated to my duties.

[ashenvaliant]

It certainly seems that way.

[ finally, he lifts his glass for a clink. ]

[guestservices]

[ clink! their glass touches his. ]

Want to make a toast?

[ashenvaliant]

To...?

[ but he's down for it. ]

[guestservices]

[ they tilt their head. ]

To the end of a week.

[ sometimes, simple is easier. ]

[ashenvaliant]

[ he exhales, low and amused. ]

To the end of the week.

[guestservices]

Next week probably can't be worse!

[ cheerfully! they sip from their drink. ]
