[He'll be the one doing the cooking for them here and now, then! Fortunately he has a lot of easy go-to recipes on hand. ...He'll even knock back the spice level so he doesn't kill Escha.]
I've heard some of the other places had weekly incentives... We might be seeing that starting next week, I think. I don't see how they'd motivate any among us to play along with this game of theirs otherwise.
Mm... The more common ones are probably out. Things like "you can go home early" or "we'll save this person for you". No one should fall for those, at this point. But what if they do something like cut off access to water throughout the camp, and refuse to let anyone have anything to drink until someone kills?
If whatever's at play here really knows us, then they'll know where to target us. It's just a matter of being able to withstand what they throw our way - or make difficult decisions.
[Hm. Thank you for bringing that possibility to the table, Escha. He... looks a little tired at the thought, before shaking his head.]
Even a continuous loop can be broken. And there are always more powerful beings out there than the ones we're currently dealing with. They can't all be vile.
Ah, I just mean that there's no upward limit to how powerful things can get. After all, those demons tried to send us- [Dick and himself, that is...] home and tried to keep the three of you there, but something else overrode them, see?
[Anyway he's probably done whipping up SNACKS now, which is just some good ol' curry-fried veggies. He even cut down on the spice a considerable amount!]

That's what I mean. If no one was possessed and this was just an accident... [ Then? Who will kill, and why? ]

[ She probably wouldn't be as empathetic to the concept, except. Escha gets water shortages. They mean a lot to a community. ]

What if - what if this game ends... And then we wake up in another one?
[ Hm. Bleak. ]

It's hard to plan for things that are so... Out of the scope of anything we know.

Maybe we'll have a spot of good luck yet, hm?

Mind getting some plates?

It smells really good.

I hope it tastes as good as it smells, hah. It feels like it's been ages since I've cooked for anyone else, but it really hasn't been long at all...
[THEIR BOAT TRAUMA.]

[ haha... boat trauma... ]
Time definitely feels like it's moving strangely...
no subject
Mm... It does, doesn't it? The days and hours and weeks are the same, but they feel different anyway.
no subject
But these past couple weeks, I don't know... Each day feels like it drags, but by the end of the week I look back and think it happened so fast.

[This is like, partially true considering he once spent 3 months in a state of traumatized catatonia but it's fine he died and then got better.]
