Still, this will hopefully be a short visit, after the clusterfuck that is Lenka failing a stealth mission hard. He waits until evening, swinging by instead of returning to his cabin. And when he approaches it's actually kind of... timid? He doesn't stride in with the usual confidence, peering about to see if she's even around.]
...Wow, she sleeps like a regular human being, huh.
It occurs to him then that this might in fact be his chance to do it. He could cast a spell, end her life instantly, end this game instantly. Sure, only nine of them remained, but the nine of them would be free if nothing else.
His hand twitches.]
Are you sure it's safe to be sleeping when trapped campers still survive, Red?
[It's a sword! A really fancy sword, but still a sword.
If Mitsuru looks into the red circle on the sword, though, he'll see a image displayed there. It looks just like the one at that link, but at the bottom there are show times listed.]
[The sword flickers again, which probably means yes.
The image changes suddenly. It's of Red, but her cocktail dress is ripped to above her knees, and she's wearing a coat she didn't have before. She's holding the sword, but her grip is clumsy and her hands are shaking from the effort. It looks like she's never held a sword in her life.
Her eyes are red and puffy from crying, and her face is full of fear as she faces down a horrible monster.
Three sentences trail over the image, after Mitsuru has had time to study it:]
But that's all Mitsuru will get for now. A fair trade, given how Red knows so much of Mitsuru's past and all. The sword goes back to its usual state after that.]

I can't do this.
I'm not strong enough.
But if I don't, I'll die.

no subject
Date: 2018-06-13 06:09 am (UTC)She also goes from 'dead asleep' to 'awake and ready to go' in like five seconds flat too. By the time Mitsuru pokes her, she's already sitting up.]
Where-
[And then she realizes where she is, and who is there, and she looks a little flustered.]
...my apologies.

Date: 2018-06-13 06:12 am (UTC)Yeah.
Good thing he didn't try to kill her.]
Sleeping out here doesn't seem especially safe.

Date: 2018-06-13 06:18 am (UTC)[The sword flickers in apparent agreement.]

So, what was that earlier?

They got put in a corner for misbehaving.

Date: 2018-06-14 05:07 am (UTC)[She really shouldn't give out information like this, but.]
You really don't want the camp population to drop below ten before week seven.
[That's the only hint he will get.]
no subject
Date: 2018-06-14 05:19 am (UTC)...That would be the point of no return.
[A statement. So she can answer as little or as much as she can.]
