Event Ten.

[awashmods]

Little Willie, mean as hell, Pushed his sister in a well. Mother said, while drawing water, "My, it's hard to raise a daughter."

t's pretty dark and miserable down in the well. The cavernous area feels much larger than a well should be, bodies milling about in the darkness and knee deep, frigid water. So you're here -- and you're not alone, and the only way out appears to be the thin circle of sunlight from above, the opening of the well. (And elsewhere, in the Town, everyone's waking up to gifts of various usefulness, but hopefully they remember to check the well today even so!) What now? Welcome to Awash's tenth event log, and the intro log for this month, everyone! All new characters have found themselves waking in the well in the middle of the Town. Hopefully they can get a hand out! For more information, please go here! Meanwhile, the current characters have some new gifts. If there are any questions, please ask them here, and have fun! Thank you!

( at the very least: yuu's expression falls a bit, brows furrowing as he holds out the shirt towards her. a peace offering of sorts? )

Sorry. If you show me how to wash it I'll clean it for you?

[good_ideas]

[It surprises her that he’s actually a good kid? She feels sort of bad.

But that isn’t about to stop her from taking him up on that offer.]

As long as you’re going to clean it, I guess I can forgive you just this once.

[And then because she’d never expected that someone wouldn’t know how to wash clothing:] ...You don’t know how to wash it?

[culpa]

( wow it's not like he just goes around using everyone else's stuff to dry off like a scrub, he didn't do it with ill intentions. just. dry ones. )

I lived on an army base, it wasn't that important to know this stuff.

[good_ideas]

....So you guys just ran around in clothes that you never wash...?

[You know. Even Hyoubu who wears middle school uniforms all the time will change his clothes.

Into another set of middle school uniforms but that’s not the problem here. Heck, even Magi has five hundred variations on his black tie, black suit, grey shirt combo.]

[culpa]

No, someone else washed them for me.

( he put them in a hamper, they disappeared. . that's the life, right there. never having to do one's own laundry. )

[good_ideas]

[It’s not like Shiho ever had to do her own laundry either but...

He doesn’t have to know that so it’s fine.]

Well there’s no one like that here. [Except for Dex. But using Dex like a sentient clothes-purifying machine is not allowed.]

So I guess I’ll be kind and teach you.

[culpa]

( it'd be fine if dex was down for it, right?? right. too bad yuu doesn't know about that yet. )

Oh, thanks.

( he's going to completely decimate it but he'll do his best. )

[good_ideas]

[She’s going to be watching so if he decimates it he better be prepared for the consequences.]

So. First you use soap and water. Then you rinse and let it hang to dry. Think you can manage it?

[culpa]

Sure?

( where is the soap. where is the water, for that matter. what will he rinse it in? wow this is hard. )

[good_ideas]

You need to sound more sure than that. This is my favourite shirt, you know?

[Shiho does lead him to where she has the bucket for washing though, with a sliver of soap beside it and clean water.]

If you mess this up, I’ll never, ever forgive you.

[culpa]

( oh. he. he doesn't like how that sounds. )

Can. . can you wash it instead? So I don't mess up.

[good_ideas]

I could.... [She trails off there, one finger set on her chin before she smiles brightly:]

But I thought this was supposed to be an apology from you.
