w0, tuesday

[ well guess how schrodinger's leeches turned out

sooo todomatsu is in a terrible mood today, back at a bench by the pyre because that's about equally far from both the theater and the swamp. he probably has a bit of a bandage around his neck visible under his hood, with waking up covered in leeches as the new fear text on his sleeve. cool. ]

[recession]

[ Losing it Todomatsu your leeches.

He spies this and uh. Stops. And tries to quickly remember where Todomatsu's name is in terms of housing. ]

Mr. Matsuno.

[ Excuse me sir. ]

I'd ask you if you're alright but I think the answer is pretty obviously no. But it looks like you got care... that's good.

[drymonster]

[ can't believe he's now yearning for the cozy embrace of the mortuary.

looks at daan, then back down at his phone, which is on its last sliver of battery life in low power mode. ]

...Yeah. Alfyn-san was there, and he knows about that kind of stuff.

W0, sunday

[recession]

[ You, my guy, he's a little bit extra worried for because Todomatsu gives off relatively more 'just a dude' energy, even though OOCly we know this to be far from the truth. ]

Mr. Matsuno, how are you doing?

[drymonster]

[ shrugs. ]

As well as can be expected, I guess.

[ which is Not Great, but that's mostly for theater and karma reasons. ]

How about you?

[recession]

[ Oh, Karma. ]

Alive. Functioning well enough. Could use a cigarette.

[ A little haplessly. He's also about as well can be expected. ]

w1, monday

[drymonster]

[ well, todomatsu blew the shitty popsicle stand that is their haunted village and escaped to the new and improved area as soon as he learned of its existence, and now he's standing outside the cutest little house in the area and looking at it thoughtfully. ]

[recession]

[ That's such a mood honestly. Daan is also here, approaching. ]

It's a quaint little house, isn't it?

It doesn't look too old or worn down...

I wonder if anyone is living in it?

[drymonster]

Yeah, definitely the cutest place I've seen since we got here!

[ granted, that's a very low bar, but. ]

Hmm, let's find out.

[ knocks on the door...

...

he turns the knob slowly and pushes the door open a crack to peek inside. ]

...Well, if there isn't already, there's about to be!

[ this is what you get for leaving your house unlocked, rosie!! ]

W1, thursday

[recession]

[ CHECKING IN!!! Wherever Todomatsu is. They manhandled people to the island houses for rest but he'll come find this muppet wherever he is. ]

How are your injuries, Mr. Matsuno?

[ He prioritised the more immediately obviously concerning people on the return but now that there's a bit of time... he's also carving fruit, want some. ]

[drymonster]

[ he is at rosie's house!! and has taken a bath and is now in blood-free clothes, sitting on the bed up against the wall. the hot bath did nothing for his complexion; he's still pale and borderline grey.

he seems to tense up a little when daan approaches in a way he didn't with everyone, but shakes himself out of it. ]

They're not that bad.

[ which seems to be true, though looking more closely, his knuckles are pretty bruised and cut up, like he was punching something hard. there are also a lot of paired puncture scars on his neck that weren't there yesterday, though they look like they've been healed for a long time, somehow.

he will totally take some fruit. ]

[recession]

[ He notes this, raising a brow slightly but doesn't get into it right away. ]

You look much better now. A bath really does wonders, huh?

[ He puts a plate of neatly sliced apples besides Todomatsu, assigns Rosie's house a bedside table. ]

Would you at least allow me to look over your hand there?

W1, friday

[recession]

[ Daan looks like he's struggling but he will check in on Todomatsu. ]

...Mr. Matsuno... are you alright? Physically, at least, I mean.

[drymonster]

Same as yesterday, I guess...

[ so still kind of undead, but. whatever. ]

Ugghhh, what the hell happened last night?? I mean— three? And— Pickles?!

[recession]

I know.

[ He looks... absolutely exhausted. ]

Three is crazy for the situation considered. And to kill a dog -- to what end? Because it'd be easier than killing a human?

[ Sorry to be a downer, dude. ]

W2, monday

[recession]

[ Me trying to write W1 Tuesday in my header like that's wrong on multiple levels. Anyway I'm still prepping my mems and debating whether I want to give this one I'm writing to Todomatsu or another one so it will come in a hot second. ]

Mr. Matsuno, are you well?

[ Just your regular check-up. ]

[drymonster]

[ and then i spent all night making clips so i wouldn't have to rely on region restricted youtube links...

he nods, and he does indeed look a hell of a lot better than he did at the end of last week. he looks Alive, for one, and his hand is healing nicely. ]

Yeah, I'm okay. Sucks that we can't get to the beach or the store anymore, though...

[ and so much for everyone finally smelling decent. ugh. ]

[recession]

[ :sob: Not the regional copyright... help. I am the victim. ]

Looks like everyone was right when they suggested it'd be temporary. Thank god I decided to keep a couple of outfits to rotate between.

[ It pays to be forward-thinking, actually. ]

w2, wednesday

[drymonster]

[ okay! sometime as we're heading back after minievent, it's memory time! this one is. very weird and ridiculous but it's also one of the s1 scenes that made me appreciate him a lot as a character soooo ]

[recession]

[ EVERYTHING IS

SO MUCH

NOT HIS BROTHERS FONDLING CHEEKS AND TRYING TO YOINK DICKS

Between this and the Starbucks thing Daan can tell maybe Todomatsu hates his fuckin' family with good reason.




Me like maybe Daan will have something better to say by the end of this mem but really he has the exact same reaction as Todomatsu did in the mem itself. He feels like he's having a stroke. ]

...

I can tell you're the reasonable one.

[drymonster]

[ YEAH HAVING A STROKE IS PRETTY MUCH THE VIBE ]

Thank you, Daan-san.

w4, monday

[drymonster]

[ fishing at the lake while gazing off at the gazebo and thinking can't believe they only gave us a decent date spot after everyone i might have had any kind of chance with is fucking dead. what the hell, stop rubbing it in!!! ]

[recession]

[


That's so sad. Jesus. ]

...Ahem. Mr. Matsuno.

[ Greeting him / getting his attention here. ]

W6, wednesday

[recession]

[ Hello! He's just ghosting around, semi-literally. ]

Feels almost nostalgic walking around here. But only almost.

[ When you trauma-survive in a camp for a bit over a month, you develop a forced familiarity with it. ]

[drymonster]

Haha. Yeah, I think that just tends to happen whenever you're in the same place for a while, even if it kind of sucks.
