Friday - Beach
Aug. 11th, 2017 10:05 pm[Prior to the crowd dispersing in its entirety, Austria discretely signals to Prussia that she would like to talk. She can’t assume that there will be any privacy in her hut at the moment and Austria would rather not limit her ability to converse with Joshua’s personal itinerary. As much as she hates the ocean, she’ll eventually start making her way to a secluded spot on the beach for some privacy with Prussia.]
…Quite the display, wasn’t it?
[Austria’s legs buckle thinking about it again. This time she’s sure it’s not from the walk.]

[She hisses through her teeth.]
Dunno how many people here are capable of doin' that kind of shit. Unless the robo-twins are responsible.

[It certainly wasn't lost on Austria.]
There were quite a number of individuals who seemed to have partaken in questionable and illegal behavior in the past, at least according to their rather vague profiles. Also I'm sure the motivation of getting to escape the island and return to their home was enough enticement for those who had the potential for such cruelty within them.
In fact ... it's probably easiest to be so wretched in this first week, before one might have the opportunity to truly get attached to anyone.

You're saying they did it to try to make the trial tomorrow easier, right? So people don't get hung up on voting to kill someone else after what happened?
[She digs a toe of her boot into the sand.]
That's stupid. This is stupid!

Date: 2017-08-12 03:38 am (UTC)Nothing about this situation is bringing out the best in any of us, Prussia.
[So yes, it's very stupid.]
It's an unfortunate scenario for all involved.

Most of my kids seem okay. Think they're in shock. The baby ninja, Akira... keep an eye on him for me, will you? He was close with that girl.

[You adopted someone so quickly? Multiple someones even?]

Date: 2017-08-12 04:09 am (UTC)[She smiles finally. She's so proud of them both. What good kids. Doctors, both of them!! Sure one might have bioterrorism on his profile and the other is obsessed with actual monsters or something(????) but they're good kids.]
I gotta look out for them. It's what West would do. And since she's not here, I gotta look out for 'em myself.

It would most likely be upsetting to Germany if you did something foolish and were unable to see her again.

Date: 2017-08-13 12:57 am (UTC)You're real cold, you know that? [she says finally.] Maybe they are gonna die. Maybe there's nothing we can do about it. Doesn't mean we can't care about 'em.

Date: 2017-08-13 01:12 am (UTC)However, as a general rule you tend to over do everything. I'm merely suggesting you practice moderation for once. Of course whatever you do is your decision to make.

I'm gonna do my best to protect these kids, Austria. Sure, they're not perfect. That's how you know they're mine, right? Otherwise they'd probably be yours, kesesese.
