W0, Saturday

[overlimit]

[Sometime later in the day, when Maya returns to the room, she'll find Rita stripping the bed and throwing the bedding on the floor in a pile. There is some blood here and there. When she sees her roommate, she offers a shrug.]

That weird purple guy made a mess, so we'll probably need to wash this before we use it.

[yep, it was all him, none of it rita's fault.]

[feytality]

[ maya immediately goes into help, because she is a clean freak ]

Geez, what happened? Did he hit his head or something?

week 0, post-invest

[feytality]

[ maya looks visibly relieved to see rita unharmed when they're both back in the dorm ]

Hey.... I'm glad you're okay.

[ since sieghart apparently died ]

[overlimit]

Huh? Er... yeah. You too, I guess.

[she'll head over to her closet and mess around with stuff in there. by the way, it seems she's acquired some things? though the only thing sitting in plain sight is an abacus sitting on the desk.]

Things sure got messy fast... Not that I'm too surprised.

W1, Friday

[overlimit]

[when maya returns to her room later on friday, she'll find rita sitting on the bed with a notebook and pen in hand. she doesn't look up when maya comes in, but heaves a sigh.]

Can't believe you were right about the trial thing. And now we get to do it all over again...

[feytality]

[ maya has many bandaids on her fingies but plops down on the bed with her ]

Yep. We definitely have to get our heads on straight this time! We can't count on a squirrel to bail us out...

... and we have to make sure we're slamming the desks and everything, too.

week 1, saturday

[feytality]

[ maya returns to the room at some point ....... her hands have amassed more bandaids ]

Uhm, Rita..... I'm sorry.... about the biting.....

[overlimit]

[rita's sitting on the bed once again. with her notebook, once again. but this time, there are pages scattered all over, with hastily-scribbled notes taken at the trial, all laid out so she can see them.

she looks up and immediately reddens.]

--Huh? I, it's not... I mean, I did it first, so...

J-just don't worry about it!

Week 2, Monday

[overlimit]

[hey, we have these neat stables now! and there are a couple cats wandering around!]

Meow.

[see? ... oh wait, that's not a cat, that's rita.

she's facing a cat who's perched on top of a fence, and... attempting to communicate with it?]

Meow.

[feytality]

[ wow this is so cute... maya's just gonna watch for a bit, she is so curious as to how this is gonna play out ]

w2, friday

[feytality]

[ maya is just coming by the room to leave her phone on the bed, but she pauses when she sees rita -- ]

Oh... Rita.....

[ she must know, right? ]

I'm sorry.

[overlimit]

[rita's here, sitting on the bed with her phone in her hands. she quickly rubs her arm over her face and doesn't look up.]

It--it's fine. You're probably the one broken up about this, right?

week 3, monday

[feytality]

[ before maya knows it's memshare, she's up for the day and making the bed..... assuming rita is not still sleeping. ]

Good morning!

[overlimit]

[rita is very much not a morning person, but she at least vacates the bed so maya can make it. she's now lounging on the couch with her phone in her hand.]

Morning. [and she slowly gains a little more wakefulness, and seems to remember--] Hey, before we go to class or whatever, there's something I wanna talk to you about.

Week 3, Wednesday

[overlimit]

"Coupon request denied. This coupon cannot be exchanged for this purpose."

If you were wondering.

[feytality]

what was it that you asked for...?

Week 3, Saturday

[overlimit]

[hey maya, welcome back to your room! we had a successful trial and found all the culprits, and...

rita's sitting on the bed and still looking over a shitload of notes like there's still a murder to solve. she looks up at the sound of the door.]

... Hey. You okay?

[feytality]

[ maya wanders over to look at her notes.... ]

Yeah. Are you okay? I think... you know Caiman better than I do...

Week 4, Monday

[overlimit]

[hi maya, rita's checking out the new buildings and this has landed her in the cosmetology building, where she is absolutely out of place.

her general emotional state is constant anxiety and irritation, but right now she's mainly perplexed as she stares at all the tools and products.]

Are these all for hair?

[feytality]

[ aww, rita.... maya's general emotional state is just a lot of despair, generally, but it does recede when she sees rita. there's also some fondness shining though ]

They've gotta be, right?

[ maya has never been in a hair salon in her life ]

Or... maybe other stuff.... I guess we could experiment and find out.

week 4, wednesday

[feytality]

[ hewwo rita... where you at... this is pre auction since maya was murdered by hugo on the spot ]

Hey, wanna do a task?

[overlimit]

[let's say she's at SUB! probably with some food in front of her. her emotional state is... bad! very anxious and kind of mad! but it seems to get less bad when maya shows up.]

Huh? Sure, I guess I still need to do one of those.

W4, Friday

[overlimit]

[so sometime later on friday, maya can find rita at the dorm! she's sitting at the desk and going over some notes, as usual, but she's looking kind of distracted...?]

Hey, Maya...

Remember when we talked about what we should do when we find a killer?

[feytality]

[ maya is just sitting.... resting... she's been walking a lot today. ]

... Yeah... what about it?

[ maybe they should have tried their methods before byleth got mcmurdered ]

W4, Saturday

[feytality]

[ dimitri took her back to spring, so this is where she is... in the room, thoughtful. she looks up when rita enters ]

Are you okay?

[overlimit]

[wow! rita's actually very very numb. she looks up almost like she's startled to get addressed by the one other person in the room, and nods.]

Yeah. Yeah, I'm good.

W5, Wednesday

[overlimit]

Remember when we talked about levitation magic, way back?

I picked up a spell and thought I'd give it a try. Wanna come?

[feytality]

yeah!!! Where are you?

w5, saturday

[feytality]

[ hewwo rita... they are back in their room at some point, maya just flopping on the bed, tired ]

Did they roll in paint when they fought or something...?

[overlimit]

[rita plops down on the couch and immediately whips out her notebook to start recording things.]

Sure was a lot of it splattered around. Might wanna keep an eye out for paint on people's clothes or belongings tomorrow.

W5, Saturday

[overlimit]

[sometime in the evening, rita's back at the room. she's sitting on the bed with a bunch of papers scattered around her and her notebook in her lap. she's writing in it, but... she hesitates, pen hovering over the page.

she'll glance up when she notices maya, however.]

... Hey.

[feytality]

Hi, Rita.

[ maya comes to see what she's working on as usual.... and climbs into the bed, too ]

... I'm sorry.

week 5, sunday

[feytality]

[ hewwo rita.... ]

Rita, can I ask you for a favor?

[overlimit]

[rita looks up from being lost in thought, wherever they are.]

Huh? Sure, what do you need?

week 6, thursday

[feytality]

[ maya will just stay close to rita... painkillers, tea, snacks, bandage touchups, water, her very alive self!! all here ]

How's your pain...?

[overlimit]

[she looks up with a small smile. Guess I can't stop her...]

It's fine. Just a little sore here and there.

Those other jerks... They protected me the whole time.

week 6, saturday

[overlimit]

[it's later in the day, and rita's calmed down a bit. she'll seek out maya, hopefully in their room. she'll linger in the doorway, already feeling choked up again.]

Hey... sorry. Today was such a mess.

But I'm just... I'm glad you're still here.

[feytality]

[ maya is just sitting on the edge of something, holding something in her shaking hands ]

Don't.. apologize, Rita... I'm the one who should be apologizing.

(You're still glad that I'm here? After all that?)

week 6, sunday

[feytality]

[ back at the room... classic ]

You really were right about everything, Rita.

[overlimit]

[she smiles...]

Yeah. Well, I had a little more information than most of you.

You were pretty amazing too, though. Those dolts in the daycare even went out of their way to say so, multiple times.

week 7, saturday

[feytality]

[ once they're alone... at the gardens.... maya gives rita a kiss! ]

I've been wanting to do that all day!

[overlimit]

[rita's immediately blushing, will she ever get past that? who knows.]

O-oh, yeah?

Felt like we were stuck there for a long time... even though I guess it was the same length as usual. Just... weirder.
