RITUAL 12 - doki doki heartbeat fairytale

WHO: YOU
WHERE: ASLEEP IN BARNS
WHEN: DAY 35 NIGHT

[Before you know it, you feel yourself drifting off to sleep once again. It simply doesn't matter if you are plagued with insomnia or not, you're going to find yourself feeling SUPER COMFORTABLE and relaxed and within a moment you're asleep once more.

And a soft voice passes through your ears before you drift into snooze land.]

"Oh-waa-aa-aaaa . . . Working, it's so rough and tough . . . Good luck, me . . . good luck, you . . . zzz . . . "

We could've asked Blossom for a way to make spare keys or something! Pretty sure Leviathan's gonna want one for his brother anyway...

Look, I appreciate it. Really. But Rose are already in a weird situation politically. If the pattern of this place holds up, you'll get a replacement soon. I don't know how much you know, but when Azdaja first arrived, I scared her just by existing. It was like everything I did put her on full alert, no matter what I tried. If Rose get another newbie with trust issues, from a cutthroat background, that perceives themselves as powerless... having an overpowered Weed walking around freely is just going to cause more trouble. I wish people here wouldn't judge others solely on the color of their collar, but the fact is — they do.

It can't hurt to present as allies that branched off on mutual good terms for now. Some things are bigger than just us.

Gods, right, Azdaja arrived at the same time that Akuki found out, what if the newbie's already here...

[scanning the crowd but when no new faces are immediately obvious, she looks back at him]

Okay. I get it. But you're still welcome in the barn. You know, as a guest. Free reign of the obstacle course and all the apples you want. And if you try to pull out of the play, Angel Devil's probably going to say something very cutting about your outfit, so I don't think you're getting out of that, either. But...I get it.

Don't worry, you're not completely rid of me.

I'll make sure the newest cagey stranger knows that it wasn't Rose's fault I turned. And I can keep handling Bluebell's meat delivery for as long as you'd like.

Oh, that would be a big help! At least until I can teach some of the others how to hunt. Or at least help me with the hunting.

I like hunting, anyway.
