Hello. What can I do for you, stranger?

[ooc; Want to contact Link? Here's how. Please put the exact time and day your character is contacting him in the subject line.]

[Week 4 and onwards: In-person visits to his room are now available. Depending on the schedule, he may be here.

[When Link calls him smart, Hiyori glances with a nervous smile back towards his own bedroom.]

It's good that we're coming up with a plan together. Working together makes us stronger. They believe that, we should too. It's how we kept #7 at least safe.

But... [Link's conclusion fills him with deep concern.] You want me to let you go ahead and die before me...? That's... Exactly what the picture book they gave back to me said I should never do...

[Hiyori slams his hands on the table, a glint of hope in his eyes.]

So I should do the opposite! That was enemy propaganda from outside!!

[champion_link]

It's not as if I won't fight back. And as much as we've been training together, I still have more experience.

[He nods at Hiyori's assessment.]

Don't worry. I'll be careful. I won't even go far - before the trial's done I'll set up some sandwiches in the dining room and have the wall stay clear so they can see.

[mermaidkin]

You're right about that. We're still much stronger, and you still more so. If they go far enough to get themselves punished, knowing that... It's on them. Maybe it's better this way, than being targeted by the others, or the familiar Noise. You have so much experience... You can make it very clean. I've thought a lot about what I'll have to do if it gets down to the wire like that and - it's not as pretty.

[Likewise nodding at the sandwich thing.]

So I think you have a good plan. It'll be like... when I went to Kyuubey's party last week. We're just taking turns.

[champion_link]

Right. And if there's anything you think we should prepare before we confirm with our leader that we need to do this the hard way, you can take care of that. You're much better with that sort of thing.

[mermaidkin]

[Hiyori takes a last swallow of his lunch and gets up.]

I'll be at the desk, then. Looking into the rules. The Strangers need to know what will happen if they don't take this trial seriously.

...thank you for talking with me. It really - it helps. Let's help IT.

[champion_link]

Of course. You can come to me at any time you need and that we have some time free. Friends help each other. And we're friends with IT.
