WEEK 5: IF YOU'VE GOT IT HAUNT IT

[fullthottle]

[Hizamaru awakens in an unfamiliar place...but to a familiar face.]

Comments

[leggymaru]

I will. You all will be alright. I know you will. Even elder brother.

[A pause.]

What I read... on the board, it said, "a still beating heart," so perhaps... it is the last you will need to retrieve on that day. [Actually.] Perhaps I should go over it in case. [He had been his brother's memory... Now it is time to shine:]

The royal family's jewels, the shoes of a sea long gone, the blade of a siren scorned, the tears of a saint, the bum javelin of an heiress, the blood of a goddess, and the still beating heart of one of those wretched creatures.

That is what it said.

[uncleanse]

Eh? Board?

[ that relatively small detail aside, though... he nods. ]

But yes, I see... that indeed lines up with the with the drawings Izuminokami-san showed me, and their real world counterparts. I possess the phallus and shoes, Junpei the anal plug and knife, and Katy-san the pendant.

[uncleanse]

"Bum javelin," though... was that the exact wording...?

[leggymaru]

Mm.

[listen,,, #justgraveyardthings]

Ah. Yes, that was the wording. It looked like what Shiraishi-san had. There was a blue gem on one side.

[uncleanse]

Mm, it was the same in Izuminokami's images as well as when Junpei showed it to me.

Is this information that you all have access to as soon as you reach the island? Hm... that would certainly explain why each subsequent summoning has granted us more knowledge.

[leggymaru]

Yes. I believe it was information found through hard work.

Nikkari-san... please be careful. All of you. It feels as if we are still missing information. So do not act rashly alone. Formations can break if you do not communicate. Even back home... that was true.

[uncleanse]

. . . Of course. Thank you, Hizamaru-san. We'll see each other again soon.

[ he says it with conviction, rather than only a fleeting hope. before hiza disappears, nikkari raises a closed fist again to bump against his in spirit (haha) and leaves him with a smile. ]

[leggymaru]

Mm. I shall see you again, Nikkari-san.

[Raising his hand, he fists it so they can spirit fist bump as bros do. He returns Nikkari's smile before reluctantly returning from whence he came.]
