He said he wants to solve everything just to get to the bottom of it all, so yeah.

[ Three happy daemons, expressing something their owners can't. ]

[afterword]

[ Dokja just nods to that, hand curling in front of his lips as he falls into his thoughts. They're of course free to continue talking! Tonight was. A Lot.

Jin seems a little distracted, but the arctic fox is content just chilling with her daemon pile. ]

[malewife]

... Something on your mind?

[ So much has happened?? ]

[afterword]

[ Dokja looks over to Joonghyuk at that, meeting his gaze with a quiet expression. His brows furrow after, looking off to the side, then seems to be in thought some more. Finally, after a moment longer he does look back to his companion. ]

I have to tell you something. [ It is Thursday. And well... the curfew has already settled in. Last week he had accompanied Reze and by morning he... Well, no point in thinking about it now. There's already a lot on his mind. So, he approaches close, glances over to Akira with a.. well, maybe a quick look. Is it apologetic? Sheepish? Either way, sorry Akira.

Then leans over to whisper to something to Joonghyuk. ]

[ Uh ]

...Yoo Joonghyuk?

[malewife]

[ Reaches for his sword. ]

[afterword]

[ Sighs, firmly: ]

Yoo Joonghyuk-

[malewife]

[ Nope. He’s definitely going to attack. Raise your sword!! Fool!!!! ]

[bloodread]

[ .... ]

You need a ref?

[afterword]

[ When he gets a moment to speak-- ]

It's fine- This is just how Yoo Joonghyuk, unfortunately, "talks."

[bloodread]

[ Perhaps takes a moment to think that he too talks in a similar way, just with his fists. Or perhaps it all goes over his head. ]

Alright. Just try not to bleed over everything. [ Holds up his right hand and flexes his fingers. ]

[malewife]

[ AKIRA REALLY IS HERE JUST LETTING THEM WHACK EACH OTHER WITH SWORDS…

It is to the point some parts of their clothes are torn and they do having bleeding cuts. It’s fine. Joonghyuk brought bandages. ]

[afterword]

[ At least Dokja seems to be nice enough to avoid the obvious locations that Yoo Joonghyuk was previously injured in the week before? Obviously, he isn't trying to aim at those weaknesses.

Jin meanwhile is... not at all hostile. She's relaxing? Just chilling with the other two daemons, though does playfully nip at Niah's muzzle. ]

[malewife]

[ Niah is calm though he lowly growls a bit… Then stops. In the end he’s fine here.

The fight ends and— ]

I believe there are spectres in the lake past the dense forest.

[afterword]

[ Jin is a menace, throwing her paws around Niah to bite at him some more. Gently.

Dokja is out of breath, clothes a bit tattered... a good thing he switched into his suit after getting blood on his white jacket earlier with the returning group. Though here he is with some cuts as a result of their fighting. ..He may as well have stayed in his other clothes. Smh. ]

...Spectres? Really?

[malewife]

[ Niah, Jin, and Nagako just in a pile. Joonghyuk wore different clothes today! So! ]

I tried diving into the lake and felt a sense of dread… Then it seemed like it wanted to drag me down under.

It is definitely the same feeling as when we saw a spectre that very first week.

[afterword]

[ Can't wait to show up to headcount like this. Assuming one of them isn't... missing by the time they wake up. ]

Why there of all places? [ Hmmm. Jin is licking at parts of her body which is clearly matching the areas with Dokja what with his cuts. Owie. ] I did think it was a little strange we haven't really seen them since the first execution.

[afterword]

[ Figures. Right in front of their son and everything??? Of course Dokja can tell when Joonghyuk is serious, so he brings out his sword to defend himself. ]

[malewife]

[ Akira understands for some reason and I’m crying ]

[afterword]

[ honestly the best outcome for this.

everyone else: why didn't you stop them fighting
akira: why would I? it's not as if they were trying to kill each other ]

[malewife]

That's good. There's so much we need to investigate outside of the murders. With only one week each world, numbers matter.

[ SO PEOPLE SHOULD MURDER LESS! ]

... Perhaps we should at least try to relax, even though it is Thursday.

[bloodread]

The last time I tried to relax on a Thursday, Suigetsu killed someone.

[ He just wanted to play pool???? ]

[malewife]

Someone is going to die no matter how stressed you get.

I do have some things to share once I’m done with this.

[ Akira can notice up thread that Joonghyuk is going to reach for his sword. ]

[bloodread]

Yeah, I know. Drinks are usually good for that but I think I'm still hungover too.

[ A hand to his neck and a quick glance away. ]

I have some things you two should know too.

[ He will wait until they're done, though. ]
