fifth loop

[cancrymods]

SUPERBIA

On midnight of the seventh day, it happens again. Time rewinds itself back to the Executors' starting point, putting them right back at the beginning of the loop. This is now their fifth time experiencing the events of the Superbia loop. Some of the school's long hidden secrets are starting to come to light... but is it enough to bring them close to breaking the loop once and for all? Only time will tell. ... Hey, wait just a second...! Use this log to investigate during this seven day period and drop a comment down to the Investigation Request subheader if you'd like to explore. If you're continuing or building off of a previous loop's investigation results, please link to it in your comment. If you need a refresher on the loop mechanics, check out this post. Good luck, Executors.

[ Mona looks at him in silence for a moment, studying his face. ]

... You know— [ she beams. ] You're really reliable, Ruin.

[He glances at her, mind immediately supplying that the only reliable thing he does is ruin but he tries not to focus on it too much. Not when Mona is smiling so cheerfully at him.

He doesn't deserve it.]

Uh... Thanks, Mona. Just... trying to help.

[ she knows many of the others probably think of her as naïve; she's always the first to suggest a friendly approach with the Authority, after all, and with how badly that backfired with Esme... but she isn't a fool. it's obvious that Ruin doesn't accept her words, just as it's obvious that sometimes Ruin is— very sad.

she isn't someone who has managed to get close to Ruin. there aren't any meaningful words she can say to him as comfort, and it would only be insulting to force shallow platitudes on him when she doesn't understand him properly. the best that she can do for him is simple: sincerity, without falter. ]

When we make it out of this Layer, would you still be alright if Lion and I came up with some suggestions for a new name to call you by?
