RYOJI
Punishment: "Ryoji will see everyone in the Town in various states of death or decay. When he looks at the characters around him, he will not see them as healthy and full of life as they are, but rather anywhere from the recently deceased to rotting through."
r.i. 6/3-6/5
[ Ohhhh no. He didn't want to say anything when he'd first noticed, catching people's eyes and his expression faltering, like he wants to say something, fear and concern in his eyes. What happened to everybody? First they disappeared— so many people had disappeared- he thought they were gone forever- and now they're back and he wishes they were gone, because maybe they've gone home and are somewhere safe and happy.
Instead of this.
Pallid skin. Rotting flesh. Sunken eyes and blood soaked through their clothes. He's supposed to be used to death. He's supposed to be the one to bring it. But this isn't natural. ]
What happened to you...?
[ He murmurs under his breath, staring directly at people but acting as if nobody can hear him. ]
What should I do? I should put you out of your misery.
[ Fulfill his role, you know. ]
r.ii 6/6-6/9
[ Solution: if he doesn't want to see what's happening, all he's got to do is blindfold himself. He's got his scarf for that, but it's sort of thick and way to long, wrapped up around his head like a cross between a scarf and a turban that slips over his eyes and makes for a good shield against that mindfucking curse.
It was a good idea. Until he steps outside and can't see anything... Right. Okay. No problem.
Ryoji walks throughout town pretty normally, for the most part. Those who stare hard enough might see something of a bubble around him, translucent and really only apparent when he's right about to walk into a lamp post or building or a tree which in that case, the post bends, the building's wall starts to crumble, tree branches snap, and he backs off. When a person gets too close, it feels like some invisible trying to push them away, and they can't get within a foot of him. ]
r.iii 6/3-6/9
[ At some point during the month, Ryoji just goes ahead and hides himself in the well. It was going to be the forest, but he tried the forest last month and there are surprisingly too many people he encountered in the forest to be safe.
The well is different. It's dark and quiet and people only come by to retrieve water, in which he goes ahead and tips the bucket and lets it fill up with water and gives the rope a tug when it's full. Nobody can see him down here. He can pretend to be a helpful well spirit.
Or maybe he gets hit on the head with a wish coin, idk. ]
r.wc 6/10-6/30
[ People are looking happy and healthy again and honestly that's enough to make him want to cry, in relief and in joy. Maybe you catch him early enough in the month with that stupid scarf turban on his head and has to be the one to convince him it's alright to take it off now. Maybe you have to wrestle it off his head. Maybe instead you catch him after that embarrassing mess, and he's beaming, going up to each and every person and clapping them on the shoulders just to feel that they're real, telling them they're warm and radiant and beautiful, no matter how tired or sick or weirded out by him they might look, life is beautiful and nothing hurts. ]
MAFUYU
"Punishment: Mafuyu will have to to do homework problems to enter or exit any building in the Town."
m.i 6/3-6/9
[ SHE JUST WANTED TO GO HOME
It's raining today and Mafuyu is standing outside of her house in Ruga, in near tears, because the door keeps repeating:
"A 0.23 kg baseball approaches a batter at 39.8 m/s. The batter swings and hits a line drive. The ball leaves the bat at 50.23 m/s. What is the impulse on the ball?"
and Mafuyu keeps shouting back ]
I don't know!! What's an impulse??! Don't turn baseball into math!! Just let me in!
m.ii 6/3-6/9
[ Even when she turns away and tries to take refuge in somebody else's house—
"Michael walks 10m north, 3m west, 5m south, 12m east, and then stops to catch his breath. What is the magnitude of his displacement from his original point?"
"You are presented with a solution that has a pOH of 2.13. What is the pH of this solution?"
"Calcium hydroxide is treated with hydrochloric acid to produce water and calcium chloride. Write a balanced chemical reaction that describes this process."
"How many atoms are in 50g of calcium?"
etc
etc
Literally crying, because she doesn't understand any of these words. Maybe she might have, if she'd paid attention in class, or hadn't asked Minato to do all her homework, but it's too late now. There's no getting into any of these buildings. ]
I'm just gonna... Go live in the garden or something. Take shelter under a tree.
[ Or pray somebody smarter than her (not hard) comes along to save her. ]
m.wc 6/10-6/30
[ Somebody got used to just staying outside like a stray dog, so here she is... Sometimes she's in the garden, sometimes she's at the well, never going into the forest unless she spots somebody entering and asks if she can tag along. She can be seen hanging around people's windows...? Peering inside with a sad look on her face like an abandoned dog :( Don't let her fool you, she just wants to be invited inside for food or something, probably.
But with that wish coin, there's so much power, right in the palm of her hand, and she looks so excited carrying that around, flipping it into the air and catching it like it's a toy and not something precious she shouldn't lose. There are a lot of days where she'd just sit on the edge of the well, feet swinging before her, flagging people down when they come near. ]
Did you wish for anything yet? What're you going to wish for? I won't let you draw any water until you tell me!
[ Shove her inside, maybe, and save yourself. ]

Didn't we all come from the well? But no one dragged me up! I climbed up all on my own.
no subject
[ To climb up without anything in the way of limbs, that's amazing. ]
That makes you magic, right? You're a magic door?
no subject
I'm not a door! I'm a guy standing right beside you if you'd stop looking at the door long enough to pay attention to me!
no subject
...Say something again.
[ The moment he does, she's going to send a straight punch in the direction of his voice. ]
no subject
What are you-?
[What is she doing?
The answer is punching him. Keigo is sometimes good at dodging punches, but that's if he has some warning and a chance to adapt. There's no warning here.
Left grabbing the throbbing side of his face, his question suddenly changes.]
What was that for?!
