impheired | craven castle: private conversation, week 8, monday

Who: Kuzuryuu, Feferi, Chizuru
When: Monday afternoon
What: Kuzuryuu's ready to wreck shit, but he has a couple of questions for his fellow DKs first

[After a certain conversation with Nanami earlier today, Kuzuryuu was more sure than ever that they needed to put a stop to all this shit as soon as possible. And fortunately, he has almost everything he needs to accomplish that at this point, thanks to the Producers.]

[There's just something he needs to do to set himself a little more at ease about what he's going to have to do in a few days. It's probably a good thing he'd hadn't asked the two of them to meet him today earlier than he had. That would have been awkward if they'd both shown up at the same time as Nanami had...]

This won't take long, so we shouldn't hafta worry about the two of you breaking any rules here. But let's not waste any time, all the same. I need to know...how much do the two of you want to break this game?

[We're just jumping right in then, apparently.]

How much...?

[Chizuru glances at Feferi, a little confused, before returning her attention to Kuzuryuu. Her expression is absolutely serious when she speaks up.]

...I want it very badly. No one - no one should have to play this game, ever again.

[Feferi nods agreement with Chizuru.] This show's gone on way too long. The producers deserve to be left up a creek without a paddle.

Good, good...that's exactly what I wanted to hear. Figured we were all on the same page but...

[But he needed confirmation, for some reason or another. If only he could elaborate.]

If that's the case, then there's only one other thing I need to know. How much do the two of you trust me?

[What kind of a question is this, Chizuru wonders...]

I'd trust you with my life. [She smiles.] ...after all, we're all in this together.

[More agreeing with Chizuru, this conversation is easy!] I trust you guys more than anyone else in the castle. [Nanami included even if she's not in the room.]

[It means nothing, Chizuru. You're probably just imagining things. He just...had to ask these questions for some reason, we just don't know.]

Took the words, right outta my mouth. But alright, all that bein' said...apparently Justice has been talkin' to Nanami and he claims there's a group of people who've figured out she's the mastermind. And they want to use to three of us to get her cooperation. You get one guess as to what I mean by "use." [No, seriously. One guess. Take it.] She's pretty wound up about it but...lookin' at who's left, I kinda wonder if he was talkin' out his ass.

[Okay, for real, like...other than Sebastian, who would be okay with a plan like killing the DKs to get the mastermind's cooperation???]

...he said what?

[Any trace of sentimentality is gone - now, Chizuru just looks furious.] Is Nanami-san alright? That sort of thing - it must have been terrifying...

[Well, if there was any doubt in Chizuru's mind that she needed to kill off the lists this week, this would definitely have banished it.] How could he do that? If he was bluffing - if he said something cruel like that to Nanami-san to try and intimidate her... that's too cruel.

How could he say that to her? [Feferi is horrified and furious at once.] What do they even want her to do? [She's been given the impression more and more lately that Nanami is no more capable of going along with the weird plans the others set up than any of the designated killers.]

She's...been better, I can say that much. [He found her sitting outside his door crying, it was kind of terrible.] Unless there's something she's not telling me, apparently this mysterious group just wants her too "cooperate" and that's really all the elaboration he gave. Which is part of why I wonder if he might be bluffing. The whole thing just sounded...odd. Like he was trying to threaten her and try to show that he's on her side at the same time? Though I dunno if that's because I was getting it second hand from Nanami when she was upset or if Justice really has no idea what the fuck he's doing as usual.

[Everyone in this room can agree that Apollo's plans are terrible, right? A no kill week...please.......]

Whether he's bluffing or not though, it doesn't really matter. If this group does exist, they'll have a hell of a time trying to get rid of the three of us. I'm just passing the word along so Nanami doesn't have to explain it again herself.

...hmph. [She's still fuming.] Bluff or not, he shouldn't have done that. He really should not have done that.

If a group like this exists, we won't let them hurt us. That's all there is to it. [They can't let Nanami's nightmares come true.] Thank you for... passing on the warning, Kuzuryuu-san.

[And then, a little more thoughtfully - ] I wonder if there's something we can do to reassure her...

She has enough to worry about without him adding to it. [Feferi's cheeks puff out.] We should definitely do something to make her feel better if we can!

He shouldn't have, no. Don't say anything to him about it though. 's much as I want to, I'm pretty sure that'll make this whole thing worse. I'm gonna figure out a way to get back at him for makin' her cry though, just you wait. [That's really the part he's most upset about in all this. Apollo made Nanami cry.]

...Like what, though? What should we do for her?

[He'll default to you two, this is not his area of expertise.]

...we could make her something she likes to eat and eat it together as a group. That's - even when things are stressful, there's... nothing better than good friends and good food.

Yeah! [Feferi perks up a bit at the idea.] How about breakfast? She usually misses it.

I'm not...really all that good at that sort of thing, [Spoiled rich kid. He can make like...rice. And other really simple dishes. That's about it.] but that doesn't sound like a half bad idea.

Feferi-san and I can pick something to make her. [She smiles.] There are cookbooks in the library, right? ...we'll pick something out and then you can just do what we tell you to when we meet up in the kitchen to cook.

[Feferi nods excitedly.] We'll make sure to pick out something really good! [So hopefully Chizuru will pick out something good because Feferi and cooking and human food...]

Heh...well I'll trust the two of you with that. Don't think it's so easy to boss me around though! This is an exception, not a normality!

You can put your trust in us, Kuzuryuu-san! We'll pick something truly delicious for Nanami-san.
