week 0, friday

[soba]

[ well!

there's a dead person!

that is to say, toi is wandering the halls after... all of that happened. maybe hunter is somewhere here.

he's not looking for him or anything but MAYBE HUNTER IS SOMEWHERE HERE. ]

[counterclocked]

[He's definitely here! Very close nearby, actually. So close that he's just walking directly into Toi once more. He wasn't in a hurry, at least, so it probably isn't forceful enough to knock either of them down.

After a long moment:]

Dude, we have to stop meeting like this.

[hunter you caused this & also someone is dead]

[soba]

Shouldn't I be saying that to you?

[ this is why next time toi is going to let him walk into a wall on purpose ]

w1, monday

[counterclocked]

[It's a lovely morning here in this very ominous crypt in the basement. Whatever part of the room Toi is currently looking around in, Hunter walks directly into him.

This time it's because his head is rolling around on the floor near the skulls and he's blindly trying to find where it went. Please save him. Or don't.]

[soba]

[ every single day toi wonders how hunter is still alive

but he opens his mouth to chastise him, notices that hunter is considerably shorter, and then it hits him it's because his head is on the ground. ]

Gross...

[counterclocked]

[He bumps into him, but he can't see that he bumped into him for aforementioned reasons. That means he's slowly reaching up with his hands to try and tell exactly what he ran into. There is a non-zero chance he's just reaching towards Toi's face.

It's fine.]

week 1, sunday

[soba]

[ it's been a little while after that whole, uh. ordeal.

but toi is in his room. his door is sliiiightly open, although whether that was on purpose or on accident, is up in the air. it's fine. ]

[counterclocked]

[He’s knocking on the door regardless of whether it’s slightly opened, speaking up as he does.]

Toi? It’s Hunter. Can I come in?

w2, wednesday.

[counterclocked]

[It's later on in the day, after he's had a chance to shower and change his clothes, that he's reading in the library. He's so tired it's difficult to focus on the words in front of him, which might be why he gives up pretty easily when he notices Toi.]

...Hey.

[soba]

Yo.

[ toi was actually looking for him. ]

You're all patched up?

week 2, friday

[soba]

[ well! this has been a lot!

that is to say, toi is walking down the hallway. he's probably trying to get back to his room, and he stops when he sees a familiar face. there are a few seconds where he is debating on whether to say something or not so it's just

seconds of silence ]

[counterclocked]

[Hunter looks over at him in turn, and after that silence ticks on for a while...]

What is it?

week 2, sunday

[soba]

[ it's hours after execution. toi figured that hunter probably would want to be alone for a while, and that other people would seek him out. so, he waits for a long time before he decides to search the place for him.

when toi finds him, he stuffs his hands in his pockets. ]

Hey.

[counterclocked]

[He's out in the playground when Toi finds him. It looks like he's been crying, but he isn't anymore - he's just staring at the ground, expression tense. When he sees Toi, though, he stands up from his spot on the end of the slide.]

—I'll leave. Sorry, I'll leave.

week 3, monday

[soba]

[ well, it's monday which means it's time to explore the new areas. toi makes it to the newly added floor and he glances down the hall before heading to the astronomy room.

time to see what the hell is up in here!! ]

[counterclocked]

[When Toi comes into the room, he'll find Hunter sitting on a pillow towards the middle of the floor, looking up at the sky. When he hears someone enter, though, he turns to raise a hand in greeting.]

Hey, there.

w3, thursday.

[counterclocked]

[He was there for the commotion on Wednesday night, but he didn't linger after everyone seemed to be in stable condition. Well, everyone except - ha.

Partway through Thursday, he knocks on the other boy's door, frowning.]

Hey. Can I come in?

[soba]

... yeah.

[ it takes a couple of minutes, but the door opens. toi peeks through the opening even though he recognizes the voice. ]

Hey.

[ he'll open it more fully. ]

w4, tuesday

[counterclocked]

[Early Tuesday, Hunter's looking around for Toi! When he finds him, he's heading into the astronomy tower immediately, holding a few pieces of paper in his hands.]

Hey, man. You got a second?

[soba]

[ he blinks ]

Sure. What is it?

week 4, sunday

[soba]

[ this is another rare instance where toi is actively seeking hunter out. wow.

but when he spots him in the garden, he will just hurry along while. also doing it casually so it doesn't look like he's.... actively seeking hunter out...... tsun ]

Hunter.

[counterclocked]

[toi you tsun disaster

Anyways, Hunter's turning to look towards him as he approaches.]

What's up?

w5, friday.

[counterclocked]

[It's a while after the announcement is played that Hunter heads towards the kitchen. He's been looking around for someone up until this point, but when he can't find them and sees Toi instead, he opens his mouth to ask something. He has a crayon and notebook tucked under his arm, and the reason for that is about to become immediately apparent, because as soon as he tries to talk... The only sound that makes it out of his mouth is a series of dial up noises, like a very old computer trying to connect to the internet.

Give him a second, he looks slightly annoyed that this is still happening.]

[soba]

[ toi is actually sitting on the kitchen counter? i hope this place isn't covered in blood or something that'll be awk

but yeah, he's just. for sitting there. and when hunter does... well, that, he blinks. ]

... where did you sleep...

week 6, monday

[soba]

[ well,

this day has been a lot, and toi is taking a walk to try to take a break from the. well. suddenly very full house. ]
