Comments

week 0, thursday morning!

[aubins]

how's the head doing after yesterday?

[toesies]

[no because sheila would push hannibal off a cliff immediately]

The head?

week 0, friday post body

[aubins]

[ kyuu said anywhere, so i'm saying the bar.

when sheila appears, yuri will be sat at the bar with a bottle of something in front of him. wordlessly, he just looks at her and holds out the bottle.

drink? ]

[toesies]

[So kind of him! Too bad Sheila is squinting horribly, and reaches out for the bottle with very careful motions, like she can't quite see.]

Why are you sitting here in the dark?

week 1, monday

[aubins]

[ circus music intensifies. ]

[ welcome to the circus, milf and twink. yuri is already looking at some of the equipment here -- the flaming rings, and hula hoops to be specific. ]

This reminds me a little of travelling performers tents. But... more intense?

[toesies]

[She may or may not be squinting at what's left of the clown costume, frowning.]

Intense, how?

week 1, thursday

[aubins]

[ MOM WHERE YOU AT.

joking he knows the medbay. he's just going to stick his head around the door and look for her. ]

... Do I want to be asking what happened or do you just want me to go and get you a bottle from the bar?

[toesies]

[She is here! Wearily:]

Definitely the second one.

week 1, sunday post execution

[aubins]

[ alright. well. he's in the planetarium - looking to sit in one of the seats and just stare at the sky for a while, but when he sees sheila he'll wander over and drop into the seat next to her. ]

You can say it once. Get it off your chest.

[ murderbot, whoda thunk. ]

[toesies]

Say what, specifically? Because there are a lot of things you could be referring to.

[They may or may not all involve cursing. It's fine.]

tuesday, week two.

[toesies]

[Hello, fellow mean girl. Though Sheila won't exactly run in the opposite direction when she runs into him in the gardens, she does subtly turn her gaze to avoid eye contact while keeping a respectable distance. Hewwo.]

... The flowers are nice, huh?

[aubins]

[ well, that makes two of them. yuri is pretty much solidly looking at the ground, where the flowers are and nothing much else. ]

Mm. I'd say it was surprising, but there's an entire circus one floor down so... maybe so not much.

[ love how awkward this is for them. ]

week 2, friday

[aubins]

[ fuckin'...

IT'S THE BAR, SHEILA. HE'S AT THE BAR. he's having a drink, and frowning. i'm a master of top levels. ]

[toesies]

[your top levels are beautiful

Anyway! She's just going to plop down on the seat next to him and cradle her head in her hands.]

Yuuuuriii...

week 3, monday, text 1/2

[aubins]

sheila, she of impeccable taste and vision.

2/2

[aubins]

i have make up now. who here do you think is most in need of a makeover?

week 3, wednesday

[aubins]

[ welcome to the star room sheila. yuri will wander over when he spots her, and wave ]

Are you hiding in here, or just enjoying the light show?

[toesies]

The second one! Come here, join me.

[And hopefully one of the meteors won't come hurling towards them.]

week 4, monday

[aubins]

[ well.

this is terrible isn't it? the usual exploration has turned into something out of a horror movie, really. yuri's in the life support room, and it's probably not a surprise whose pod he's looking at -- inbetween frowning at the greyed out panel in front of the pod itself. ]

End support-- why would you...?

[toesies]

[This is? A lot? She has a hand pressed against her mouth the whole time, eyes wide.]

I take back everything I said about that room on the first floor.

week 4, friday post investigation

[aubins]

[ what's up favourite milf. yuri's in the music room, dinking the keys of the piano a little absently. ]

...

Oh, hey. You alright?

[toesies]

[She seems disgusted, sniffing at her clothes when she enters the room — until she notices him.]

Huh? Oh, yeah. I'm alive, so I'll call that okay enough. And you?

saturday, week four.

[toesies]

[She enters the common, texting... But stops and lowers her phone when she spots him.]

Hey...

[aubins]

[ wordlessly, he just going to lift up a bottle of wine. good choice or nah?

his phone is also on the bar. it's been a texting kind of day. ]

wednesday, week five.

[toesies]

[When Yuri enters the kitchen on this lovely Wednesday, he will find Sheila... reorganizing the pantry? Hm.]

[aubins]

[ ........ hello there. ]

Got the cleaning bug, Sheila?

week 5, friday

[aubins]

[ hi sheila! welcome to the common room!

before she even gets in there she's going to hear an almighty crashing sound. ]

[toesies]

[





YEAH SHE'S GOING TO COME RUNNING IN LIKE, HEWWO? WHAT'S GOING ON HERE???]

sunday, week five.

[toesies]

[Immediately upon running into him in the kitchen:]

What the fuck just happened?

[aubins]

If I knew, I would be a wholer, better man and have less of a headache.

[ so much hate ]

monday, week six.

[toesies]

[Walking into the beach for the first time

and immediately squealing in delight.]

Oh, hell yes!

[BEACH! BEACH! BEACH!]

[aubins]

[ he is absolutely lounging on the sand, under an umbrella with a pair of very bejewelled sunglasses on his face. ]

...

[ he lifts them off his face and peers over at sheila. ] Best thing you've found since we woke up here?

[ oddly, he feels a little somber. despite the fetching swim trunks and can do attitude towards sunbathing. ]

week 6, wednesday

[aubins]

[ well, he's on the beach again. in closet appropriated wear -- t-shirt and a pair of what looks like linen trousers, but he has an air of annoyance about him.

the beach is warm, and clown make up is heavy, so he appears to have painstakingly removed the heavier white face paint yet retouched up the rest of the clown makeup he had during the fighting event. he's starting up at the bright red parasol looking for all the world like he wants to close his eyes but can't stop staring at it.

he suffers, truly. ]

[toesies]

[Yuri, your face...

Having missed him earlier in the day, Sheila's confusion and alarm likely slams into him like a big yellow school bus the moment she gets close enough to notice the make-up.]

... Yuri! [What the fuck.] Trying something new today...?

sunday, week six.

[toesies]

[They're at the beach because rule of third is funny. Sheila pauses when she spots him, squinting.]

Wow. This is like the third time we've run into each other here.

[aubins]

What can I say, it's a nice location. Even when it's being all stormy and ominous on a Thursday night.

[ they beach bunnies now. ]

tuesday, week seven.

[toesies]

[Well after #aoigate, Sheila will be squinting at the PC with the message written on it. When she notices Yuri, she gestures at him to come over.]

... So, do you think it's permanent?

[aubins]

[ #aoigate is the only hashtag we accept in this house. ]

Hm?

[ -- ah. ] ... I want to hope so, even if I'm a little sceptical. I'd love to know what power it was that got used to pull this off though.

week 7, wednesday

[aubins]

[ well he's here in the pc cafe. looking a little intently at the blue-screened pc, but i'm sure it's fine.

he'll glance up and nod when sheila comes in though. hello there. ]

[toesies]

[She approaches, peering curiously at the PC.]

What are you up to...?
