week one, sunday.

[It's been a long week for everyone, but there are a few people that stick out to her. That's why, when she sees Nikkari on the pool deck, she approaches, voice soft.]

Hey. You doing alright, after everything...?

[uncleanse]

[ at the very least, it looks like he's doing better than his near breakdown during trial. so that's something! when beck approaches him, he tears his eyes away from whatever he was staring at in the distance, and just laughs softly. ]

Haha... if I received a token for every time someone asked me that question this weekend, I'd be able to buy out the entire gift shop.

Well... We all have to look out for each other.

[In this cruel world of sex demons. Either way, she won't push him to answer if he doesn't want to, but...]

It's nice to be able to get some air, isn't it?

[uncleanse]

[ yeah... yeah. he's a little more reluctant to talk about himself than some of his peers. ]

It is. But even though it's less claustrophobic than staying inside... it still only serves to remind us that we are trapped.

[ he shifts his gaze over to the seemingly boundless ocean again, long ponytail whipping in the salty breeze... but then offers another, weaker chuckle as he shakes his head. ]

Haha... where are my manners? Surely you didn't come to find me just to have me lament about our circumstances. [ he turns to her properly and gives her a little polite bow. ] My apologies, Beck-san.

Well, at least we're trapped with a comparatively better view.

[It's sarcastic, stretched over a layer of frustration. She shakes her head in turn when he apologizes, waving a hand.]

Hey, don't sweat it. I'm pretty sure we've all earned some venting. But - you can just call me Beck, if you want.

1/2

[ if he's bothered by her tone, he doesn't show it. if anything, it encourages him to shoot her a teasing look of his own. ]

Oh my—you already feel comfortable enough with me that you'd allow me to drop the honorific? We haven't even gotten to know each other that intimately yet, unless...

[uncleanse]

[ ... but then he shakes his head too, with a soft chuckle as his expression relaxes. ]

Don't worry—I'm not serious. This way of addressing people is simply what I'm most familiar with. If you'd truly prefer just "Beck," that is what I'll use.
