Week 9, Tuesday Afternoon
[At some point, Maya's going to approach and tug Apollo aside. She's got Phoenix's locket visibly on the outside of her dress (as opposed to tucked in), Locke's bandana tying her hair up and Wolfwood's sunglasses on her head]
[Basically, she's even more of a fashion travesty than before]
Hey! I've got to talk to you!
[Basically, she's even more of a fashion travesty than before]
Hey! I've got to talk to you!
no subject
Eh? Do you even know how it works? Why can't you just tell me the secret?
no subject
I haven't gotten around to that point!
Just try to be dramatic about figuring it out or something!
no subject
Fine, fine. . .(Okay, I guess I should just approach this in the same fashion as calling someone out on a lie. . .the only difference is it's Maya and I don't actually have any proof that she's holding back a secret. Hm. . .)
Those locks and chains appeared when I asked you about Mr. Wright! So that means, there's something you've been holding back, when there is absolutely no reason to!
no subject
[She doesn't look impressed!]
Yeah, and?
no subject
[SLAMS HIS FISTS DOWN A CONVENIENT..........TABLE OR SOMETHING]
And!! You shouldn't have anything left to hide, given that you've spilled the beans on how we're all potentially related! Therefore. . .uh. It must have something to do with your relationship with him!
no subject
[GOOD JOB, APOLLO]
....What makes you think that?!
no subject
--um! (Get your head back in the game, Justice!)
W-well! Out of everyone here, he was clearly your most important person! There's no way you were merely one hell of a good assistant for him!
no subject
Don't be silly, Apollo. Everyone knows he was my assistant, not the other way around.
[GETTING A LITTLE DISTRACTED HERE, MAYA...]
no subject
Regardless!! You are definitely hiding something about your relationship! (I just. . .don't have any way to prove it. Hm, maybe this?)
[PRESENT: ...the magatama]
Would this have anything to do with it?
no subject
[ALSO BAM! Did your soul just take a bit of damage?]
Wow, you're way off-track....
no subject
[ALSO OW, MY LIFE POINTS]
G-gyaaah! (Yowch! Okay, maybe presenting things randomly isn't the way to go. Let's not follow his example.)
Erm. Yeah, well, I was just testing you! Sort of. A-anyway!
The reason you're hiding this. . .I have to ask, don't you trust me knowing? I already know he was your best friend.
no subject
[Also he's really more like her only friend from home... so sad]
I don't know if you can handle it, to be honest.... [HOW OMINOUS....?]
no subject
What if I could prove to you I could handle it? You'd spill the beans then, right?
no subject
no subject
[SLAMS DOWN A FIST]
I'll prove I can handle your secret. . .by telling you a secret of my own!!
no subject
[(not that Maya can comment on other people's height)]
Oh? What secret? [IS IT EMBARRASSING? She's intrigued]
1/2
For the longest time. . .Trucy thought I had a special someone. I kept heading home right after work, because there was a special girl I needed to take care of.
no subject
But in truth, I was just taking care of a stray cat. I haven't dated since. . .what, freshman year of college? Even that didn't really count. Also I didn't realize that she was a he until Trucy pointed it out on the cat.
[KANYE SHRUG]
1/?
Apollo, that's....
no subject
[DRAMATIC PAUSE] That's......
done!!
That's the lamest thing I ever heard.
[BUT THE PSYCHELOCK SHATTERS SUPER DRAMATICALLY]
[OUT OF SHEER PITY]
no subject
(H-hey, how is that lame?! It's a cute cat!)
W-well, regardless, it was a secret only known by a few!
And your last lock broke! I'm really confused as to how we're not feeling any debris right now!
no subject
I can see why.....
Just roll with it, Mr. Magical Lie Detector! Anyway... before I tell you this secret.. there's something you have to know.
[FURTHER DRAMATIC PAUSE] ...Nick.... is really obsessed with cleaning the toilet.
no subject
He'd make us do it all the time!! Like at least five times a day! Is that way?! That weirdo!
no subject
That sounds like exactly the kind of thing Nick would do....
Anyway, the secret is..... [THE MOST DRAMATIC OF PAUSES] Sometimes, he's kind of cool.
