week 0; saturday 0

[honkinbigteeth]

[later on saturday, ylfa is wandering around carrying some penguin sleeping bags. she waves.]

Hi!

[dendroculi]

[nahida is



also carrying around a penguin sleeping bag. she waves back.]

Hello! Were you gathering supplies?

week 0; friday

[honkinbigteeth]

[wherever nahida might be, ylfa will likely run into her at some point since she's sort of pacing around still looking for clues even though there's no clues to find.]

Nahida...! Your teammate!

[dendroculi]

[she is doing the same thing but she's very sad about it, and also a little visibly frustrated that she isn't finding anything. oops.]

Ylfa... [ :( ] ...I know. I'm glad you're alright, at least...

week 1, monday

[dendroculi]

[presumably after they do not get mauled by a lion, nahida can be found in the history museum.

she's examining each of the exhibits with interest. for this pc, she is stopped in front of a glass case displaying what looks like an old-timey college dormitory, where a man is bent over his desk, writing something, while a bear is curled up sleeping in the corner. she is reading the informational plaque that accompanies it.]

...oh... in at least one world, there was a poet called Lord Byron. When he was studying at Cambridge, it seems they had rules against bringing dogs into the dormitories there... but they had no written rule against bears, so he brought a tame one with him. He was even known to take it for walks on campus.

[thank you, article of 125 weird history facts.]

[honkinbigteeth]

[she's listening to nahida while lightly dripping blood (not hers) on the ground.]

Did the bear write poetry too?

week 1; thursday

[honkinbigteeth]

[well...after the cyoa return she'll come looking for her carrying a small little bag.]

...Nahida?

[dendroculi]

[nahida is sitting on a basic chair outside the go to sleep warehouse, because she's resting, but also she wants some fresh air, and if she rests inside people can't see her. which would drive her nuts with worry if the situation was reversed, so.

she smiles when she sees ylfa.]

Hello, Ylfa. I'm sorry for worrying you earlier.

week 1, saturday

[dendroculi]

[well



ylfa tried to make her feel better by bringing her pastries, so... nahida will do the same, stopping by to gather some sweets from the food trucks before going to find her. she doesn't know if it will help. but... she can't just do nothing.]

Ylfa...?

[honkinbigteeth]

[it is probably better for us to be on saturday anyway. on friday, if nahida tried to find her, she was acting feral and asking people to leave her alone. but on saturday, as exhausted and tense as she seems, she'll still let nahida approach, and smiles slightly when she sees the snacks.]

Nahida. Are those for me?

week 1; sunday

[honkinbigteeth]

[after executive, she's just frustrated and confused. where's nahida? ylfa is in more of a mood to seek her out right now.]

...Hi.

[dendroculi]

[nahida is near the canals! she's sitting at the edge of one. she wanted some fresh air but didn't feel like going to the park.]

Hello, Ylfa. [she still looks concerned.] ...is there anything I can do for you?

week 2, monday

[dendroculi]

[nahida lives in the library now!!

ylfa will probably feel curiosity and fascination in waves as nahida picks her way through the shelves, examining the books with interest and occasionally plucking one off the shelf to add to her ever-growing pile. she smiles when she spots ylfa.]

Ylfa, hello!

[honkinbigteeth]

[she's sort of wandering the library, looking around at everything with awe. the emotion really is awe - she seems to have not expected to find a place like this. she's clutching a book to her chest.]

Nahida!

week 2, thursday

[dendroculi]

[roughly afternoon-ish is apparently when she and the rest vanished last time, so nahida, who is worried about a repeat of last week, goes looking for ylfa.]

Ylfa? Are you around...?

[honkinbigteeth]

[she was around. she's wearing her very cute new dress and some hair ribbons in her braids.]

Hi, Nahida. Thursday already, huh?

week 2, saturday

[dendroculi]

[going to look for ylfa after the trial. how's she feeling? vibe check, but like, with emotionshare, not bonking.]

[honkinbigteeth]

[she is feeling very tired, because that was a lot. but she's happy to see nahida.]

...Nahida!

week 3; saturday

[honkinbigteeth]

[ylfa is in the movie theater, unless nahida wouldn't go there. she mainly just wants to be somewhere quiet and dark so she can be sad alone for a bit.]

...Shenhe.

[dendroculi]

[nahida woke up in the movie theater and did not make it out before she got the notification. now she is just kind of trying to collect her thoughts before she goes out to face anyone.




functionally, this just means sitting in the dark. so when ylfa comes here to be sad and alone, nahida hears her and looks up.]

...Ylfa...?

week 3; sunday

[honkinbigteeth]

ok
the story is called
the ant and the grasshopper
and in the story one of them waits around and one of them
i think they collect food for winter
i think its the ants that do
but then winter comes
the moral of the story is dont wait too long...

[dendroculi]

That makes sense...

Just sitting and waiting for more information isn't going to help us.

By the time we have it all, our options may be extremely limited.

week 4, monday

[dendroculi]

[wow can't believe a pig noise is immediately bumrushing them and yeeting them into a memshare]

[honkinbigteeth]

[help she's so excited after seeing this memory! also everything paimon says in this memory is also what ylfa was thinking and about to say.]

Nahida! Nahida! This is exactly what I was talking about, about Mother's book! He can do the same thing you can! If we put them in a story, they won't be erased! And then later we might be able to get them out again!

week 4, thursday

[dendroculi]

Can I bring you anything for while you're resting, Ylfa?

[honkinbigteeth]

thanks, nahida
thats nice of you
im ok really

week 4; friday

[honkinbigteeth]

[she's skipping over to nahida.]

Nahida, you can heal me now if you want. Livio offered, but now their healer is dead. And Haru is being kind of annoying right now.

[dendroculi]

[help me.

anyway, nahida's brow furrows a little bit.]

Alright... um, what injuries did you have in mind?

[she is debating ignoring the injuries and attempting a full-power heal because this feels like a curse.]

week 4; sunday

[honkinbigteeth]

[she's snoozing most of the afternoon, but she's awake enough to come see nahida when she comes by. haru has healed the scratches on her.]

...Hi, Nahida.

[dendroculi]

[she's immediately looking for her injuries and she breathes out a small sigh of relief when she sees that they've been already handled.]

Hi, Ylfa. [...she holds up a small bag of pastries.] I don't know if you feel like eating anything right now... but I brought you something for later.

week 5, tuesday

[dendroculi]

[today, nahida can be found at the music shop! she's picked up a an older-looking lyre from their instruments and is plucking at the strings, a little hesitantly at first, like she's trying to remember how to play - but picking up in confidence as the song goes on.

...when she finishes, she looks up.]

Oh! Hello, Ylfa.

[honkinbigteeth]

Nahida!

[whoa...she's so good at playing instruments!]

That's so beautiful.

week 5; saturday

[honkinbigteeth]

[nahida...she's coming to find her.]

What happened...?

[dendroculi]

...I thought maybe, if I decided to erase someone... I would be awake to help you and Haru if you had to do it again.

[...]

And... if you didn't have to, then it would be like you said - that maybe it would be better if it wasn't just your team earning points... as a backup, in case there were any accidents. [she takes a breath.] This should never have been on your shoulders alone.

I wanted to help, but I think I just made it all worse.

week 7; monday

[honkinbigteeth]

[standing near her warehouse which is apparently also the bra store.]

Pets. Pets. Pets.

[dendroculi]

[appears]

Pets!

week 7; saturday

[honkinbigteeth]

[after birthday party, she is just going to leave the party for a little while and sit by herself outside in the park.]

[dendroculi]

[nahida also leaves the party for a little while to get some fresh air - and comes across ylfa in the park on her own.]

...Ylfa? What brings you out here?
