[senri had seen them a few times now - the portraits of people hanging on tamaki's walls. but now that he was walking around their school, he couldn't help but think that it'd be fun to play the part? so when he enters the room it's in a soft blue blazer and black slacks, a cleanly pressed shirt - though given that it's senri, he couldn't help but play around with the accessories. in the place of the tie there's a black ribbon in a bow, and he hasn't forsaken his pins and keychains]
Hehe, I thought I'd pretend I'm an exchange student for our trip!
[The uniform is familiar. He's worn it every school day for the last nearly-two years now, and it's only when he sees the fitted blazer and the pressed slacks, and the buttons of the shirts all nice and done up that he suddenly realizes that he actually misses Ouran. He misses the Host Club, he misses school, and for a moment he doesn't reply, assessing Senri.
It's home, but it's something new with Senri's accessories and he smiles softly after a moment.]
I'd be honored to show you around our campus. [So yes, A+, even if there's a tinge of sad nostalgia to it. (He can also at least admit that the uniform suits Senri. That's not hard to see.)]
It's not the same kind of happy surprise that Senri was hoping for - and he just calms for a moment at that. it doesn't seem like it's been poorly received, but he wonders if he accidentally managed to dredge up feelings that he wasn't supposed to. he reaches up to cup tamaki's cheek - like he did earlier, though he vastly prefers it now without the mask - to guide his face to look at him]
... I'd like to hear everything you have to tell me.
[Give him a moment to turn and face him, eyes focusing on Senri for a moment as he blinks in surprise.]
When have you ever been too much trouble for me? [There's a smile, but he pulls away.] If that's the case, I believe I should make adjustments of my own. Just a moment.
[He's stepping back into his room, grabbing something out of his closet and ducking into the bathroom. It takes all of five minutes or less before he comes back out dressed in his own uniform. It's still the same blue as his god robes, but he looks significantly more comfortable.]
But of course - I've been waiting all day for this. As happy as I am to see you, I love having your attention to myself.
[please, just a little bit of shame.
he'll move to take tamaki's arm as he usually does though, tilting his head]
Though I was wondering... Might I ask one question of my gracious host before we enjoy another chapter of our story? There's something that's been on my mind...
To no one's surprise. But my time is all yours now and my eyes are on you and only you. [Nope, what's shame? But anyway he puts the prince act on pause and links their arms, leading them out of his room and through the parlor to head back to the east wing.]
.... well, you were nice enough to give me the hint about Apollo last time...
And normally during trials, we get to ask our gracious hosts the alignments of the people who got hurt. So I was just wondering, if by any chance... you might be able to share Estelle's with me...?
[...what if he covers Senri's face with a hand (not touching his eyepatch so he doesn't hurt him) just so he can pretend he can resist him? What if.]
Senriii...[Ugh.] I can't reveal alignments, you know that. Though...I do believe you can guess based on what you know and what's happened to her. Why she might have done it.
...why would you think that when I know you have guesses for who else is aligned with Ambition? [What's the logic here, Senri? Please share.] I've never spoken to her, so I don't know her very well.
I didn't either. That's the hard part. She was nice? But she wasn't with Cheri or Love. Not with you.... I don't even know what her coin was like, if she switched around or not.
[ . . . ]
Can you tell me that?
But if she wasn't with Bambi, then that means I've lost sight of three Ambition followers this week.
Niceness doesn't always mean being with a "nice" god, Senri. Likewise, a bad person doesn't always mean they're with a "bad" god. Need I remind you of Sasuke-kun's brother?
I do find it interesting that a young girl would take the place of a killer unless she learned of something everyone else is unaware of as of yet.
I don't... Uchiha-san was complicated. [he's the only other murderer that senri has incredibly complicated feelings on]
There were only - I guess five spaces I wasn't sure of last week. Estelle, Alex, Hiro-kun, Entrapta, and Mouri-san. My other guess for Estelle was Justice. I thought that Mouri-san could've been with Justice - but maybe he switched to Ambition for a week to cover for himself? Then he switched back this week... if Estelle was the one who got removed.
Or she could've been the Disorder follower that cursed Yu-kun and felt bad about it? But I've been thinking that whoever that is was working with the Ambition follower that hurt Ray-kun.
I very much doubt Estelle would have cursed someone who she seemed to be friends with, unless it was perhaps for a cover. [...the rest of that is a lot though and he's trying to think of a delicate way to answer.]
Some advice, Senri. Don't narrow your numbers down as much. Do you not think it's possible people have moved and the numbers turned out equal by chance? The solution may be more simple than you think, especially if you compare last week's numbers versus what should have happened.
[he's sighing quietly at that. he leans against tamaki but with his free hand, he rattles off alignments and counts on his fingers - ]
Merriment, Piety, Beauty, Indulgence, and Justice - I have all of them accounted for.
I tried to keep it simple... that's why I thought she might've been with Ambition. If she learned why Guy-san did what he did, maybe. Because I heard that Bambi offered him a deal in order to protect a god and their follower... which would probably be Luke-kun and Piety.
Merriment is Sasuke, Taka, and Ishirin-san. Beauty is still Mizuki-san. Piety is Luke-kun. Indulgence is Ogou-san still, and Yu-kun isn't cursed so he had to have joined him. Justice is Mouri-san, Oda-san, and Connor-san.
I'm waiting for confirmations on if the three Ambitions we knew last week have moved... If Estelle was Ambition, that means only two Ambition followers actually moved.

But she's not in the game anymore, Tama-chin... I thought it could be the same rules as the trial...
[ . . . ]
I have two guesses. Can you guide me between one or the other?

[...he'll remove his hand from Senri's face.] What are they?

I think she might have been with Ambition.

I'm not sure of what deal she may have made with him, but if that is true I suppose that would be correct, yes.
How are you so sure you have the aforementioned five accounted for though?

Then that means they went to Love and Sincerity.

Senri. I want you to think for a moment. When do we announce the tallies for the week?
no subject
no don't actually do that]
At the very beginning? As soon as the new gods come in...
no subject
Right. Which is right after...?

Am I missing something...?
