what do I even sing in a month like March

[afterlifer]

WHO: EVERYONE
WHAT: Interactions
WHEN: March 5th – 9th
WHERE: Anywhere and everywhere in this afterlife
WARNINGS: Cussing
SUMMARY: INTERACTION LOG you know the drill.

5th: You're in for a treat today because in history class, you're in for a research project! Everyone will be assigned some historical figure then be sent down to the library for the period for reading and checking out books and working on your paper. Don't be brave and pull an Ooyama and eat chips down there though, you might get in trouble.

6th: If you're in the computer lab today, whether you’re chatting away to some friends on the chat, making a video post or typing up your research paper for class like you should, suddenly!!! Your computer turns off. Looks like an NPC accidentally tripped over a cable and turned off every single one. Oops, hope you saved whatever you were doing.

7th: It's time once more for gym class but today you aren't jumping, you'll be ducking and dodging more. It's time for a game of dodgeball! Whatever side you've been put on, get ready to run up and grab those balls and start throwing them. Just don't get hit by them, especially in the face because that might hurt. But hey, at least if you get hit you can wallow in your loss with whoever else got smacked out.

8th: It’s the last day of school until your one-day weekend starts, so instead of a test, how about a little group work? Today in health class, everyone will need to pair up and each pair will get a worksheet to fill out. Guess what you get to do? Name as many bones in the body as you can. Not exactly the greatest way to end your week but at least you can struggle through it with someone.

9th: Just like for the past while, everything still seems completely and utterly normal in the afterlife, huh? No rain, the NPCs are acting as they should, no weird, bug infested cafeteria food or sudden surge of animals spawning—but wait! As you’re walking around today you might spot something strange, though only for a split second. You blink, and whatever it was is gone. Maybe you caught what looked like an NPC glitch and freeze for a fraction of a second before continuing on like normal or what looked like a dark cloud forming over the school before disappearing and leaving a blue sky. How strange…

IMPORTANT REMINDER: Ai will be making many appearances throughout this interaction log. Remember that the search for the mystery program is still going on so feel free to use any of these days to have your character continue their search for it!

As always, remember there are several clubs now so practices and meetings can be set up whenever you want! And if you want to do something outside of what we've provided, feel free to do so.

[replayed]

A partner, huh. That's nice.

[avartwice]

You think so? It's really kind of annoying usually! Though, well, it has come in handy from time to time.

...And it can make me look kind of insane whenever I talk to him, but I guess that part can't be helped!

[replayed]

...I see.

[avartwice]

You probably know how annoying he can be too, since you've talked to him before.

[replayed]

I don't really see him as annoying.

[avartwice]

Hm, really? You must be pretty patient.

[replayed]

Patience is something I've had for a long time.

[avartwice]

Lucky you! I wish I was better at being patient myself.

[Even though he's actually pretty damn good at it already.]

But it is a virtue, after all, or so people say. So maybe that's the problem.

[replayed]

Living a long time gives people patience sometimes.

[avartwice]

[He pauses for a moment... and then laughs.]

Ahaha, not for everyone, it seems! ["Oh just shut the hell up."] You'd think a couple of centuries would do the trick, but I guess not!

[replayed]

It depends on the person.

[avartwice]

No kidding!

[Greed's just going to fume a little while Ling keeps talking. Stupid, annoying, pain in the ass prince...]

But you've lived a long time, huh? You must be older than you look, then!

[replayed]

You can say that.

[avartwice]

So how old would that be? If you don't mind sharing, of course!

[replayed]

I… don’t know.

[ It’s not as if she’s been counting the years she’s looped! ]

Too many to count.

[avartwice]

That's hard to imagine... Actually losing track. It must have been a really long time.

How did you manage to live that long?

[replayed]

I made a wish to go back to the day I met my very best friend, in an attempt to prevent her death. I looped that one month over and over, repeatedly. As long as I believed that one day I would save her, there was no way for me to die. But that wasn't why I died to begin with.

[avartwice]

That's...

[...Well, that's definitely not even close to the kind of answer he had been expecting. He'll just... take a second to try to process that, because damn.]

All that happened because of a wish? [It's hard to imagine, but the same could be said for a lot of things in his own life.] ...This friend... must be very special to you indeed.

[replayed]

And because of my prior ignorance.

[avartwice]

What do you mean?

[replayed]

There were things I didn't know before I made my wish that I found out after the fact.

[avartwice]

Things that complicated matters, I'm guessing. So like the old saying, then? 'Be careful what you wish for'?

[replayed]

It is exactly like that. After all, there are consequences for every action.

[avartwice]

...Yes, there certainly are.

[He knows that very well himself, from experience.]

Often consequences we can't foresee. Was that the case with you?

[replayed]

I did not see them at first, naturally. It took a while for me to see the truth. That's why I had to take action into my own hands.
