[ a beat, as she squints at that. but then she shrugs and continues. ]
Yeah, me and -- uh, me and him used to fight all the time in the dead place. We sparred a lot when I wasn't drunk. [ she pushes her hair back out of her face. ] Count me in. I'd like to help set it up.
[I'll be honest I can't remember if Sei gave him she/her pronouns or not but I remember Sei correcting someone in trial so I'm just defaulting to he/him. It's fine. ANYWAY]
Sounds good! Should we use the Simulation Room to let everyone show off their abilities, or keep the playing field even?
[ no he's right to do so but vi has seen sei as a baby which is why she's like bwuh ]
... Huh. Good question. [ thinks about that. ] Guess it might be fun to show off abilities, but honestly, you'd have to bracket it, right? Because Sei's good at swords, but like... Dante's a fucking ghost.
[He opens his mouth, but whatever he was initially going to say is ruined slightly by a brief--thoughtshare, memshare, whatever--of the faces of his family, looking at him with fear and hatred. Annoying!!!]
I'll be fine. [The wounds are still a little fresh, but it's not like they don't all know these trips are illusions.] I'm not exactly eager to go another one of those adventures, though.
[He's very hard to mentally traumatize, but the few things that do get to him are pretty effective.]
[ nooooooooo WELL THIS IS ALSO HER NIGHTMARE SO. she gets it a little, wincing. ]
Yeah. I get it. They really get under your skin. [ the physical injuries are nothing, for her. she can manage broken bones and stab wounds, but watching her loved ones die in front of her is always going to be so, so much worse. ]
If we have our way, we're not going to have to do any of this again. Hopefully.
[Truly same hat... he'd take all the physical pain in the world over the punishment he actually wound up with. But he assumes that's why it happened.]
Hopefully, though I'll admit I have my doubts after all this. [But eh. Much like early on, he's pretty chill about it.] But if nothing else, this is a sign that no matter what else happens to us, there's probably something more powerful out there.
[Which is good news to him, both because he's a freak who is constantly seeking challenges, and because it's a sign that he isn't wrong to maintain his belief that he'll bust out of hell eventually.]

week 7, monday
Do you think we can squeeze in a fight tournament before this is through?
[For the record he still has some CYOA injuries, so like. It is bold of him to say this when he's bandaged up.]
no subject
Uh, yeah, absolutely. I never got my fucking fight club, man, we've gotta do something.
no subject
Right? Seizaburo and I were talking about it on the other side before he came over here, so I'm sure he'd be happy to help set it up.
