Forever is a pretty long time

[prototyper]

Characters: Ayaka Sajyou and you!
Setting: Pretty much everywhere the entire week.
Format: Action, but I'll match ~.
Summary: Ayaka's been waiting for prince charming. Ten year later, that bastard has yet to show up.
Warnings: Nothing right now, other than a very angry tsundere.

Doorm floors / around 02-17
[ To be perfectly honest, Ayaka's lost track of the time she's been at the tower. But she knows she's been waiting for a long time. Waiting, and waiting, and waiting. Waiting for her real servant to come along. But that day never came.

She was lonely. She was a twenty-seven year old girl waiting for some dumb servant. How childish.

For the most part, Ayaka hung around the dorm floors. There was nothing to really explore. She was sick of this place. Right now, she's leaning against a random wall and staring off into space. Maybe you should try and talk to her? ]

Floor Twenty-five
[ This place again. There's not much going on except for Ayaka sitting. Occasionally, she'll mumble to herself though the words are pretty unclear. However, the next few words are actually clear! ]

I should have never gotten involved with any of them. I'd rather fight ten Holy Grail Wars then spend a damn minute in the same room as them.

Graveyard
You really have forgotten about me, haven't you?

[ See Ayaka. See Ayaka talking to a particular gravestone. She's sitting, her knees up to her chest as her eyes cast downwards. She knows the gravestone won't answer back but all of these years of built up frustration is starting to finally get to her. ]

Whatever. I don't care anymore. I knew I lost you a long time ago. Lancer isn't a good servant either. He doesn't care about me anymore and neither do you.

[ She buries her face in her knees. ]

I don't care... I don't care... I don't care...

Around the tower.
[ Feel free to spot Ayaka anywhere else in the tower. ]

That's true... Then again, I'm sure there are some people who stopped caring about who's in charge this month.

Either way, it's not a bad thing to be just a bit cautious.

[doesnotgetit]

That's ridiculous. I can get letting their guards down a bit with the other administrators, but not caring enough to ignore the signs of a Jason month? That's just begging for trouble.

[Even in her early days, she learned quickly how to read those signs.]

But yeah, you're right. Want me to keep you updated, in case I find anything strange?

[prototyper]

You know how they are these days. It's been ten years, so I wouldn't be surprised if there are some people who stopped caring.

Yeah, that would be helpful. I'll keep you updated too.

[doesnotgetit]

Yeah, I know. But still... [She sighs, shaking her head.] There's a difference between resigning yourself to being stuck in this tower and actually giving up. We can't allow ourselves to do the latter.

Even if people have become used to dying and coming back... [A topic she's long since gotten over being uncomfortable with. She's had her fair share of bad ends, after all.] We who have been here for such a long time should still stay alert, to help the younger crowd.

[prototyper]

Sadly, there are probably people who have done the latter. [ Ten years of being stuck here, doing the some routine... She could see why people gave up. ]

Mhmm. The newcomers will probably need our help more. After all, they... They really haven't seen what the experiments are like.

[doesnotgetit]

Let's just hope that they take us seriously. Warning them for a big, horrible experiment followed by nothing happening is pretty annoying. And heartbreaking, when they don't take us seriously later on...

[It's happened, once or twice over the decade. Hakuno still isn't sure if it's just a horrible coincidence or the administrators messing with them... but she's earned the doubt of a few people just trying to do good like that.]
