See, now that you've asked for it, we'll just get something even worse next week. [ grace, your optimism. she shrugs and starts looking at the other circus things, trying very hard to not be clumsy. which is awful and rude. ] I don't get what any of this has to do with indulging ourselves.

[touchups]

Like being cursed so none of us can sleep?

[That one's already been spoken into existence and hasn't come true yet so SURELY IT'LL BE FINE..... He also just shrugs at that, slipping his hands into his pockets and moseying along after her.

Speaking of indulgences, though--]

Heard from Greed that you were the one who wrecked the music room.

[lmao]

[alteracion]

[ greed, you fucking tattletale. grace just smiles though, picking up one of the. idk, clown noses that are hanging around and going honk honk on it ]

Are they still holding a grudge about that? I just wanted to see what would happen.

[touchups]

[He absolutely just seems more amused than anything. God bless Grace, 10/10.]

They seemed pretty cranky, yeah! I think they only mentioned it because we were talking about their group in general...

[THERE'S ONLY THREE OF THEM AND YET THEY'RE ALL MISCREANTS. But he at least assumes Greed isn't going around tattling on her to everyone. Probably.]

Pretty impressive, still! No better way to find something out than to get hands-on involved, right?

[alteracion]

Exactly. You get it. [ sound less :3 about it, grace. god. greed has no luck because all three greeds are just? terrible? it's fine. ] If it's meant to be our space, I'm not sure why everyone's so mad when we do whatever we want with it.

[ a beat, as she remembers cheese and steak ]

Then again, some of the food stuff has been super gross.

[touchups]

[Greed did this, to be fair. Greed picked out all three of these feral raccoons and now probably regrets it.]

I do, I do! [HE DOES GET IT he's a very hands-on lad himself.] And I've been wondering that, too. Especially the Avatars, you know? They don't even have to live with us.

[WHY IS GLUTTONY SO ASSBLASTED!! THEIR ASH FOOD. He laughs a little at that, though...]

I still really want to know what happened the cheese. [And the steak, but mostly the cheese...] --Is the music room the only thing you were behind?

[alteracion]

Yeah, it's not like we're messing up their space.

[ THE ASH FOOD but she shrugs ]

Broke a few other things, but it all shoots out goo when you do it. It's no fun when the result is you're the mess.

[ worthless!!! ]

[touchups]

Yeah, exactly!

[GOD HE'S TIRED. He also vibes with this statement to a degree...]

Wow! I wonder who broke that one washing machine, then... I was with Vira and when she opened it, it just spit a whole stream of goo at her.

[IT WAS HILARIOUS.]

Whoever broke the elevator without getting stuck in it had the right idea.

[alteracion]

[ grace shouldn't be laughing at vira but she does, absolutely, laugh at that. although: ]

The elevator? Wasn't that the murderbot? Everyone's been saying so.

[ the rumors of hk 47 fucking an elevator have been a lot ]

[touchups]

[She is valid and he agrees with her laughter, if his grin is anything to go by. AS FOR THAT--]

Wait, was that for real? [Even if it's not, he might just go with it anyway because shit's hilarious.] Wow.

[alteracion]

Probably! [ she has no clue. she is just deciding it is true. ] It makes the most sense, doesn't it? Half the people here didn't even know how a microwave works, never mind messing with the elevator.

[touchups]

[Oh no, he's laughing again... He's just going to pass this on as the gospel truth now, rip murderbot and your sexy, sexy affair.]

Yeah, that's true! It's kind of funny, isn't it? I'm surprised more stuff isn't getting broken with the way they go about things, honestly!

[alteracion]

Are we sure that's not why all the stuff is getting broken in the first place? Maybe it's all just innocent accidents.

[ she says that while they both know she absolutely did the music room on purpose ]

[touchups]

[It's just one little music room! Clearly Grace is innocent and has done no wrong ever.]

Mmm, you know? Yep! That sounds right to me. Someone just fell on a bottle of cheez whiz and then ran around the room, probably. And then came back the next day and accidentally punched the mini fridge because they forgot how to get it open.

[They've connected the dots.]

[alteracion]

Exactly. Little mistakes like that just happen! Sometimes you trip onto the vending machine and order seven hundred steaks and leave them there because you don't know how to put them back. It just happens.

[ they haven't connected shit and they know it ]

[touchups]

[They are full of shit instead and they know it.]

Yeah, exactly! Wow, it's a good thing we've figured out how that happened. The mystery of it all was going to drive me nuts otherwise, you know? And now we won't have to worry if anything else ends up mysteriously broken in the future!

[THE CHAOS JUST CONTINUES.]

[alteracion]

It's the perfect explanation! And no one can be mad if they're just accidents.

[ a beat, and then: ]

But the robot breaking the elevator was definitely on purpose.

[touchups]

Oh, yeah, for sure. You can't accidentally fuck an elevator.

[THE THINGS I'VE HAD TO TYPE IN THIS GAME.

Anyway he says that very surely and just nods solemnly. Then, after a beat:]

Grace, right? How're things treating you outside of the whole murder and goo and falling off of tightropes?

[alteracion]

[ she nods solemnly back, because elevator fucking is absolutely what happened ]

Outside of all that? It's alright. A little boring? They tell us to indulge, but there's not much to do that's not, well, each other.

[ or hard drugs, apparently. ]

[touchups]

[ESTABLISHED CANON can't wait for them to spread it around.]

Yeah, the emphasis on that is pretty big, isn't it?

[Sex, demon weed and rock n' roll... WHAT A TIME. Anyway, terribly, he vibes with everything she's saying.]

I wanna do something fun that'd get a good reaction, you know?

[alteracion]

[ this is the worst possible outcome ]

That doesn't sound too bad. [ it's piqued her interest, which, again, the worst possible outcome ] What kind of "something fun" do you think would work?

[touchups]

[Greed, watching this probably, regretting that they suggested Mahito go find Grace.]

Something that draws a "Wow! What the fuck?" reaction is always fun. We can leave the cheese and steak out since they were gross, but maybe make, like... an interactive art installation!

[WHAT DOES THIS EVEN MEAN. Maybe he just wants to glitterbomb people.]

[alteracion]

Interactive art installation? [ yeah, what the fuck does this mean, mahito. ] Like... what, they become part of the art if they walk into it? Are you throwing paint at them?

[ this is worse than glitter ]

[touchups]

[THIS IS WORSE THAN GLITTER. HE LOVES TO SEE IT.]

Oh! That's not a bad idea. But maybe we can set it up so we don't have to be around when the paint falls? You know, since everyone gets so picky about the messes around here.

[This is just a non-lethal trap.]

We could add glitter, too! For panache.

[alteracion]

Greed was so annoying about the water balloons... [ the soda condoms, grace, be real. ] But if we put some kind of sheet to catch the paint and glitter behind and under the art installation, it'd actually be a real art piece, and no one can complain about the mess.

[ besides the one. on them. this is the wrong way to use their brains ]
