Week Five

[stagemanagers]

[Last week, you had your very first minor body pileup! Granted, the Balladeer's death was entirely unrelated to anything, but at least he died as he lived - getting completely fucked up in some kind of carnival-themed hellscape. Only two days later, another terrible accident took Rina and Varian both from you. It's just been one of those weeks, huh? At least you got to add both of their corpses to your weird growing collection!

Again, you'll wake up this morning with another new snippet of memory. You'll also find that the stairs in the lobby are no longer blocked. You can only access one part of the second floor, but it seems like there's some neat stuff up there!

Outside, a few things seem to have changed. For one, the weather has turned - it'll be overcast this week, with periodic rain and even scattered thunderstorms. For another, the bushes around that rock out by the football field have bloomed. That's nice.

Get to it, friends! I'm sure everything will be fine this week!]


Sunday | Monday | Tuesday | Wednesday | Thursday

(( Be sure to submit your memory regain and your AC for this week! As always, Hester's office hours and the merch booth remain available. ))

....Spongebob, why are you on the floor.

[WHY ARE HIS CHILDREN LIKE THIS]

[employeeoftheyear]

... Yeah.

[That answered your question, right?

[violentenvies]

[Salieri sighs a bit at that, crouching down to put a hand on Spongebob's shoulder]

Mon fils, I asked you why you are on the floor.

i can't believe you threw out the mon fils right before you KILLED HIM

[employeeoftheyear]

[He lazily puts a hand on Salieri's.]

I's comfy. Join me, dad.

BOY I SURE DID THAT DIDN'T I 8)

[violentenvies]

[Salieri huffs, lowering himself enough to sit at least, and shrugging out of his jacket, folding it with a sigh]

Lift your head, Spongebob.

🔫

[employeeoftheyear]

[Spongebob lifts his head up... sort of. The motion of moving his head seems to have amused him because he's lifting it up and down now.]

Hiiiiiiiii

💕

[violentenvies]

[he'll just catch the back of Spongebob's head when it's up, cupped in his palm while he slides that folded jacket under his head]

There. At least put your head on something soft.

[employeeoftheyear]

[His head is gently put on the jacket and he just... lays there for a little bit.]

Yaaay, I love you dad...

...

What're you doin here anyway?

[violentenvies]

Checking up on my beloved son, of course. [he's going to reach down and gently tap Spongebob's nose with a finger] What else?

[employeeoftheyear]

[He looks at Salieri, absolute childlike awe through his red eyes.]

I'm...

Beloved son?

[violentenvies]

Of course. [he shifts his hand to gently run a hand through Spongebob's hair, soothing]

I love you very much. I've said so, haven't I?

[employeeoftheyear]

Yeah...

[He's silent, leaning into Salieri's hand with a dopey smile on his face.]

I love you too, dad.

[violentenvies]

I know. [he rubs his thumb against Spongebob's temple gently, soothing]

Are you comfortable?

[employeeoftheyear]

[Spongebob relaxes into Salieri's hand, nodding lazily.]

Mmmhmm.

[A pause.]

... Could you give me some snacks and a blanket please?

[violentenvies]

Of course. [the corner of Salieri's eyes crinkle a bit with his smile]

Don't move, hm? I'll be right back. [he cards his fingers through Spongebob's hair once more, before pushing to his feet]

[employeeoftheyear]

I'll tryyyy...

[Frankly, Spongebob probably couldn't move right now if Salieri asked him to. He's just so darn comfy right now.]

[violentenvies]

That's my boy. [fondly, and he's going to go retrieve a blanket and a bowl of chips and carrot sticks for his spongeson, returning fairly promptly]

Here we are, then. [he gets back down to the floor, reaching out to set the bowl just above Spongebob's shoulder, before flicking the blanket to spread it out, laying it over him]

[employeeoftheyear]

[Spongebob munches on some carrot sticks and oozes into the blanket.]

Love you, dad...

[He looks like he's about to fall asleep right there, before he awkwardly perks up.]

Oh right.

You... you should join me. This is fun.

[violentenvies]

[Salieri chuckles at that] There's a few others I'd like to check on first, but then I'll join you. How's that?
