[Well!!! That dead announcement is frankly good news as far as Fukuda is concerned? Overdue justice but justice nevertheless. As good a reason as any to go to the beach?
[ because of official art reasons, aoi is wearing a white school swimsuit.
she's also dragging an innertube away from a small pile of them, somewhat unsuccessfully because it's tied down and she hasn't noticed. just untie it aoi come on... it's not hard... ]
Fukuda is just going to come over and try to just be helpful by untying it but he is struggling to do it with just the one hand. At least this way maybe she'll notice...?]
It's almost like we're on vacation now, with this beach and all. [It's nice! He's a bit worried and sad under it all but mostly it's nice!!]
[He doesn't want to ask for help... Probably he'll manage eventually? Maybe?? Anyway he's frankly not that surprised to get that vibe off of Aoi. It seems to him a bit like the radio static equivalent of an emotion and Aoi is Aoi at the end of the day.]
Well... I mean, as far as the circumstances that got us here, I suppose so. But it used to be a lot less comfortable here so I'm at least grateful for that. If it weren't for being eaten I wouldn't mind staying here... [He doesn't sigh but he gives off the emotional equivalent of one.]
[Well now his base tone of sadness is coming to the surface as he finally starts to make leeway with the knot.]
Aah. I don't care what happened to me, I'm just worried about everyone else. But at this point all we can really do is hope the people who are still alive find a way to stop this UWU creature...
[ she has to kind of. push the tube into the water and then climb into it. she's so short that it's kind of hard to kick her feet in the water to get away from the shore, but she manages somehow. ]
Aoi's not used to that.
Real people are weird. [ ... because she's used to fictional people. ]
[A low hum. He's vaguely concerned but also now relaxed. He's keeping his hand on her tube so they don't float apart and because taking her hand seems presumptuous.]
Like it feels bad or just not how you're suppose to exist?

But he's not the only one here.]
Ah, Aoi, are you going swimming?

Aoi was gonna float for a while.

but lets him struggle with it. it doesn't occur to her that he only has one hand to work with and that she should take over.
as for emotions, hers are a steady ?????? but it's not really directed solely at him? it's a very passive, subtle but steady confusion. ]
Aoi's never been on vacation before... This seems like a bad one, though.

There are only a couple places to go. And if Aoi doesn't stay a part of the story, Aoi will disappear for the sake of other people.
Aoi would prefer a vacation that wasn't like this.

[ she has a little pulse of hopefulness. the optimism is real, despite all the odds! ]
no subject
There's some people still alive that are pretty smart. I believe in them.
[A beat. He finally manages to untie the innertube.]
Still, I think I wouldn't mind floating for a while too...
no subject
You wanna float with Aoi?
We could tie our innertubes together or hold hands!
no subject
... If you don't mind. I wouldn't want to impose.
[Me, your serial killer friend.]
no subject
Sometimes Aoi gets nervous alone, anyway.
no subject
In that case, I'll be happy to keep you company.
no subject
Oh, good. Aoi wasn't sure you'd want to.
no subject
Why wouldn't I?
no subject
no subject
Ah... Well then I guess I'm glad you didn't forget me either.
no subject
Aoi is like an archive.

[Dropping the tube into the waves before plopping his beanpole self into it, then patting the water next to him.]
no subject
Aoi's not used to that.

[He will help a little, tugging her tub along with him.]
My memory's only especially good with numbers, technically.
no subject
Most variables are kept track of by numbers, anyway. 1 for yes, 0 for no when you get to an event flag.
no subject
I guess if Aoi is a computer program she's really made up of zeroes and ones as well...
[Sighs, lying back and looking up at the sky overhead.]
But I think that just makes you pretty remarkable. You can think and feel like anyone else.
no subject
That just makes Aoi feel glitched.
