[ HEY AIKAWA, WHEREVER THE FUCK YOU ARE, BUCKY IS NOW ALSO HERE. He comes bearing: his wine bowl! apple juice boxes! and...a kinda busted up looking apple juicebox! ]
[ Wowie! The one trial I sleep through the entirety of, some EXTRA wack shit happens, why is this happening. Anyway Aikawa is disturbed, but like, who wouldn't be, right? Empty graves aren't anything new, if the memory Bucky got is anything to go off of -- the problem being, they didn't establish a key factor, that being that Aikawa doesn't actually remember that particular memory he got.
So, he's just left with the weirdest sense of deja vu about their bodies being missing, but mostly it's normal concern. Ish. ]
Uh... yeah, I'm good, as can be for any of these Saturdays. Gotta say, watching is easier than being in them... usually.
Bucky walks up a little closer and starts laying his goodies out. ] Take your pick. [ points to the busted juicebox ] I refilled that one with wine. Y'know, if you want the baby factor with your booze.
I only made one with booze in it. [ he does this because he doesn't know how to have an earnest conversation about feelings but still wants to make sure Aikawa's okay.
also like. vodka juiceboxes exist. so this ain't that wild ]
...looks like it. Kaeya isn't going to get the warmest welcome, but I don't know how Rupert and Sheila are gonna take showing up together.
...Rupert's a nice guy. I mean, the same thing happened in the last place we were in -- he killed Bradley, and they showed up together. I think... they both seem like nice enough people to understand, but.
[ Suppose there's no perfect predicting everything. Also thanks Bucky Aikawa is rarely ever okay but he seems to be trudging along with this conversation just fine. ]
[ PROBABLY... anyway he's like, he's not crippled over every gorey thing, just very specific ones if it hits too close to home but he's actually surprisingly okay being violent even so it's weird. ]
Well, then my guess is that our bodies got dragged off to be used in some mad scientist experiments. See how far they can push the human body in whatever sick directions they like. Maybe even revive the corpses to use as their personal little errand boys.
Yeah, well. He's a weirdo. He wouldn't do that to me if he knew I'd hate it though, probably, but that's... if he knew it was me, anyway. Uh, nevermind though, it's just a thought. I'm sure he isn't here.
[ Because I'm the only idiot who plays obsessively from this canon. ]
The graves were a bit disturbed every time, so someone definitely knew. But why keep them in the ground?
[ someone deciding not to do a mad science on you because they know you'd hate it is the most buckwildly stupid thing he's ever heard. but okay aikawa. ]
It might be a gradual process. Only one or two of the graves were ever disturbed in any given week. They might have been pulling us out of there one by one, slowly.
As for transporting the bodies somewhere else...I think it's safe to say that ours already have been.
I think it's less about the weight and more about the number of hands they have. If it's just one person, they're gonna need both hands to drag a body. Can't grab a head along with that, if it's separate.
...they might have decided to offload my arm to make it lighter, though. It's not like it's flesh anyway.
w4, saturday
Hey. You good?

[ Why is your apple juicebox busted sir? ]
no subject
[ this isn't very usual, though.

no subject
[ Despite that though, he'll just take the... normal juicebox. Though it's more just because he's not a wine guy, but also. ]
You only brought one with booze in it? Something about this feels really illegal, by the way.
[ Juicebox wine... except wine boxes now do exist for real. ]
...Rupert, Kaeya, and Sheila tomorrow, huh.

We're all we have, though.
no subject
...I guess we are. For better or for worse. Let's hope it keeps being for the better. Rupert and Sheila seem like good people to help with that.
no subject
Yeah, I think so, too. They're both pretty cool-headed... well, Rupert is.
[ ... ]
Um...
Where do you think our bodies went...
no subject
As for our bodies... [ he pauses, wondering just how much to say of what he's thinking ] I really don't know. They could've been taken anywhere.
no subject
The hell's the point of grave-robbing? Though, based on the uh, record that Souji told me about...
[ He's THINKING they got VORED ]
no subject
...you think they might get eaten? [ late w4 sunday reveal: lol. lmao. ]
no subject
[ SCRATCHES HIS HEAD... ]
Though I dunno why it'd be us and Sieg, but not some of the other guys that died before us.
no subject
...I don't know why they might have left behind the others. But I can think of a few reasons why they'd take ours. Not that any of them are good.

[ AIKAWA YOU DON'T SEEM TO DO TOO WELL WITH THESE SORTS OF THINGS ]
no subject
Yeah, I'm fine.
[ PROBABLY... anyway he's like, he's not crippled over every gorey thing, just very specific ones if it hits too close to home but he's actually surprisingly okay being violent even so it's weird. ]
no subject
no subject
[ Yeah he is actually surprisingly okay with this theory. As in, like, stomaching the thought of it. ]
I gotta admit, I know a guy who'd probably do something like that, but I doubt he's here and I also think he wouldn't do it to me, probably...? So.
But I don't see any signs of stuff like that happening here...
no subject
"Probably" doesn't sound very comforting.
