just another day in paradise

Who: all you cool kids
What: family meeting
When: 9/15
Where: by the poool
Warnings: none yet


[bro this is all so disorganized. Shepard can hardly stand it -- but she's heard of the meetings that they had had in the past, and she's going to take it upon herself to do one of her own. they had to get all of their facts together somehow, at least.

it's the Leader Things in her.]

Everyone meet me near the pool. Between the apparent disappearances last month and what's been going on at the pool, we need to get our facts straight. Meet me here after school's over for the day.

[aaand she's there at her designated time, hoping that they'd at least try to listen to her and gather as she intended...

she's not going to lock anyone in or anything, but if you try to pass her by, she's going to give you A Look like you'd better mind her message. not that she's even close to punching someone out, but. there's probably something a little bit intimidating about the commander who's looking at you expectantly if you try to ignore her meeting.]

[of course it's maddy. if subaru thinks of this all in the abstract and like it's a fun game then he doesn't have to think seriously about a body being chomped]

Maybe it's like a rare fish and it only comes up during specific situations! Like at a certain time of day, or when it's raining!

[more likely the first,]

But putting that aside, do you think the person knew there was something in there in the first place...? Or do you think they just thought it was like, a good place to toss a body 'cause it goes down reaaally far?

Well... I'm not really sure, so don't quote me on this, but don't dead bodies float? You'd need to weigh it down so that it sinks, right? Maybe... that's what the rocks in their pocket were for... But I think you'd need a lot of rocks. That doesn't really answer any questions but I think whoever did this obviously wanted the body to sink, right?

My question is, how would someone have known there's a creature down there? When me and Komaeda were feeding it, we didn't know something was actually down there, it was just something Komaeda suggested to me at the time. When I swam down the few times I went, I didn't see or hear anything. [So it doesn't roar, but also to be fair it gets dark in the depths, so how is anyone supposed to see anyway?] I guess Nene knew, but...

Natsume said that the pockets had holes in 'em and the only rocks that stayed in there were the ones he found, so maybe there were more to help way them down...? Oh, or they could've tied cinderblocks to the feet and dragged them down that way!

[and it just

sorta

floated back up once the lower half got chewed. since iirc it was sort floating there when they arrived]

So I'm not necessarily sayin' they did know, but that if they didn't they'd still wanted it to sink 20,000 leagues under the sea. The monster might've just been a hidden bonus.

...So you can't see IT?

( but nene can, and he can... natsume stares at the pool's deep end, tapping his thigh. the only thing they have in common is being able to see supernatural things, but not a lot of people know he can right now—

well, it was bound to come out. )

I... gained the ability to see what cannot normally be seen recentLY, so I've been aware of its presence just like the little LAMB. ( yeah, he's got to say it like this, leave him. ) It's possible only those who can see spirits and the like in some way are able to see there's something lurking down THERE.

...oh, that makes sense. No, I can't see it. [Actually, that makes too much sense. Where's Clamor when you need him? Noah looks around the pool house and if Clamor's around he makes some gesture like, hey come gaze into the pool real quick, what do you see? And if Clamor's not at the meeting then RIP.] Well, logically speaking then... most of us can't see the supernatural, right? So whoever did this probably — likely — thought to just weigh down the corpse with rocks and didn't know.

...Or, someone's hiding something and they know more than they let on.

[Just a general statement, not thrown out at anyone in particular.]
