MINGLE LOG

We're back, everybody! Fresh week, fresh house, fresh murder. It is indeed a fresh house as when people wake on Monday morning they'll see that — everything is fixed! The windows, the table, whatever property damage that was inflicted last week is all cleaned up and reset. There is no SOS on the roof anymore. None of that. Anyone who stayed up all night on Sunday will have seen the mannequins diligently cleaning and repairing the house during the course of the night, finished by dawn. Yay!

They've also opened a new room in the house. A cleaning room — there is a washing machine, dryer, and various cleaning supplies in the room. Mops and brooms and dustpans and swiffers and all sorts of things! There's even a basket for collecting dirty laundry too.

And then in the morning, they bring in a few things to note, dumping it all in the living room.

• A assortment of feminine clothing — dresses, skirts, blouses, etc
• Included in that pile of clothing are twenty-five sailor uniforms of various sizes
• Make up! Quite a bit — enough to last the rest of the time
• So many packs of underwear. You had underwear last week but like, this is better
• A tablet with Candy Crush and Infinity Nikki on it. There is nothing else accessible on it. There's a sticky note on the cover that says FOR ECHINACEA
• A gun with one bullet is on the coffee table
• A spear is laid across the coffee table as well

That said, it doesn't seem like the food restocked. Huh...

[ This one fear is also probably, unfortunately, a valid fear... ]

That's entirely possible...b-but it's just as likely so that we can wash our—

[ turning. glancing up. ]

Fukuhara-san...? I know it's you.

[costars]

Oh, yes, it's me. Sorry for disturbing you.

[ this really is such a filled room though...giselle must be so happy. ]

I wonder why they waited to unlock this room now.

[incurse]

Oh, no, you're not disturbing anything! It's just...never mind.

[ He'll let him wear his paper bag in peace, even if it's a little sad not to see Tamon's face. Yuta can understand well why he might want to hide it right now. In any event— ]

Maybe they were still getting it ready? Or...they saw the damage we did to the house last week and wanted to make the cleanup a little easier if something else happens.

[ That seems a little too generous, though. ]

[costars]

[ it does seem VERY generous. which unfortunately prompts another theory. ]

What if there's a price we have to pay to use the cleaning room? Like...even more people have to die this week? Or for every gallon of detergent we use, we have to offer up a gallon of our blood?

[incurse]

[ Their pessimism is a bad combo, because: ]

That's entirely possible. [ Thoughtfully... ] They'd probably require someone else's blood than your own, though.

If you want to test it, you can use my blood if needed.

[costars]

[ cool! great! awesome! ]

I don't want to test it! Not at all! And if I did, I'd rather use my own blood. Please feel free to clean as much as you want. I'll offer up myself afterwards.

[incurse]

[ Here they are, having a game of blood offering chicken, like a bunch of dumbasses. ]

Let's just...wait to see if someone else tries to use the washer, first. The rest of the cleaning supplies seem like free game, though.

[ He even picks up a nearby broom and sweeps it around himself, without any limbs falling off or anything! ]

[costars]

[ okay, so maybe the cleaning room isn't haunted. 1% of his fear leaves him. however, he does not feel compelled to pick up any of the supplies lying around. ]

This'll make Miss Giselle happy though, don't you think?

[ their beloved maid... ]

[incurse]

[ A quick, eager nod. ]

I bet you're right. Not that she has to clean everything for us, but she really seems to love taking care of others.

[costars]

[ their maid-chan....he used to think she was so scary and now he thinks she is only a little scary. ]

We can't let her do everything by herself though....I don't want her to feel overworked. Maybe I can do some of the laundry today, e-even if it means I have to give up some of my blood

[incurse]

You won't have to give up your blood.

[ Not if Yuta gives up his first— ]

Would you like some help? I'm not really familiar with how to run a washing machine, but I can fold clothes and things.

[costars]

[ babyfight over who gets to give up their blood first ]

They're pretty easy to use...you just have to put in detergent and then start it, right?

[ why does he sound so uncertain about this...? ]

[incurse]

[ He sounds as uncertain as Yuta feels... ]

I think...but what about all the extra settings? The spin cycle, the temperature...

[ It's probably fine if they just use the medium settings for everything, right??? ]
