[rochalizo is out on the pier, crouched down and squinting at the water below—more accurately, at the fishies swimming there.

HELP HEI I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO TO GET THEM TO TALK TO EACH OTHER]

clutches onto your paw

[malewife]

[ Joonghyuk strolls onto the pier with a large straw sunhat and fishing gear, seeing Rochalizo is in his usual spot. ]

What are you doing?

[allyship]

[ROCHALIZO YELLS IN SURPRISE unfortunately causing him to lose his balance

joonghyuk will be treated to the sight of rochalizo flailing his arms before he tips forward into the water]

[malewife]

[ ................................... ]

I didn't even try to sneak up on you.

[ He is closing his eyes internally because he thought he walked up here normally. Well, he puts his stuff down and debates for a bit.

Can Rochalizo swim? ]

[allyship]

[HE'S FROM A DESERT WORLD

PROBABLY NOT]

[malewife]

[ Joonghyuk takes a moment because he's trying to see if there's any fish left. Probably not because there's a boy fucking drowning and he thinks this is lowkey annoying.

Quickly, he fishes him out by the collar. ]

[allyship]

[joonghyuk is valid

anyway rochalizo's spluttering as he tries to have his regular air intake again]

w1 wednesday, post-event

[malewife]

[ WELL, JOONGHYUK and Niah are here and they found Rochalizo somehow. ]

There are too many incompetent people in our numbers.

[allyship]

[oh

it's............ him]

... What.

[malewife]

So many people aren't confident in swimming and, for some reason, didn't think to hide that.

[ people gonna die by drowning just wait ]

Yelena Belova and Sheba may be able to teach you when we return to a better suited place. You can try your luck with Kaburagi Kotetsu, unless you're worried that he swims the same way he runs.

[allyship]

[this burn against kotetsu dang]

... You actually went and asked!? Just how many people did you tell!?

[HORRIFYING]

[malewife]

Tell?

[ ??? ]

I only asked if they could swim and if they would be able to teach. I told them nothing.

[allyship]

... And they didn't ask any further than that?

w5 saturday, post-trial

[malewife]

[ He's here! Surprise. Or is it a surprise when he's going to ask this question: ]

Will you be fighting for your life tomorrow?

[allyship]

[i really appreciate you just waltzing in here hei

rochalizo looks up at him blearily.]

Perhaps this is my selfishness, but having the blood of one of my friends on my hands is enough for me.

[malewife]

[ IT REALLY IS BECAUSE HE KNOWS ROCHALIZO IS GOING TO BE LIKE THIS

PREDICTABLE ]

... How do you perceive that as selfishness?

[allyship]

... Because pointing a weapon at your friend is always an ugly feeling.

[he's torn between the reflexive assumption that no one cares about him and acceptance of all the surprising love he's received.]

Then again, plenty of people are furious with me, so maybe it'll be one of them up there with me.

[malewife]

… Did you choose her?

[ That is the question, isn’t it? ]

There are others you could have taken instead.

[allyship]

I did.

[...]

I suppose it's a matter of whether or not I should've.

w7 friday

[allyship]

[WHO KNOWS THE STATE OF ANYTHING RIGHT NOW but once things have calmed down maybe,]

Joonghyuk. You're old, so you must have plenty of life experience, correct?

[malewife]

[ JAN IT IS SO LATE I DOn'T KNOW WHAT'S HAPPENING. Joonghyuk is kind of tired, but he looks over to Crabachizo. ]

... Don't tell me you're going to ask me for love advice. [ Wait— ] That isn't a proper greeting.

[allyship]

[STOP HE'S NOT A CRAB







also he says nothing]

[malewife]

[ ...

he also says nothing, but more so he's waiting for Rochalizo to say SOMETHING. ]

[allyship]

... Well, two people said they liked me. Actually, they didn't even say that. They confessed each other's feelings? I think they were trying to be considerate of each other. But it does make things very awkward, since I confronted one of them about it but I still need to talk to the other. Is it weird to ask someone if they have feelings for you? But it's not my fault she didn't just tell me! Right? All of my friends seem useless for this, so that's why I'm talking to you.

[malewife]

[ ... Niah looks at Rochalizo like he heard it but i'm... Joonghyuk squints. ]

Speak louder.
