[ obligatory fit check instead of sexy angel costume! though at least now i can mention that yves was probably covered in bandages beneath his angel costume earlier so it wasn't even that scandalous. if nothing else, it just shows that the lace half mask he was wearing wasn't just part of the costume - it's an outfit staple. yay!
but this is such a cute response... yves just laughs a little bit - ]
Shall I fetch you something more... average to eat, Mademoiselle? Though you and your desserts do complement each other well.
elysia thought yves would seek out flowers, but she didn't know how true her guess would be. there's only one person who's spoken to her about black lycoris flowers, and she looks for him among the field. ]
They bloom no matter how anyone feels.... isn't that right, Yves?
[ somewhere in the new areas, you might encounter a familiar face—sort of! yves is looking around with curiosity, but his face is... maskless? where there is normally half a mask, there is just clear, umblemished skin. though the more you look at him, you might realize that his eyes are... different. the center of his pupil has an unnatural cyan glow to it. he approaches you with an unrecognizing gaze, seemingly panicked ]
—Excuse me! Have you seen Adolphe? Brunette, about this tall, as surly as anything?
[ this is the world's laziest starter for memshare week only. they're already in the house of mirrors, suddenly, together. whoa!!!! please throw me a mem or if you want me to throw you one just say so and i'll double-check cw on discord YAY ]
[ he's escaping... though he does have some gauze taped to his face so he's been looked at. he looks at her and for a moment can't quite place her face before it clicks ]
[ elysia watches and thinks, this is so very yves. she also thinks it highlights one of the most troubling things about him, one of things she hopes has changed at least a little in the past few weeks.
(there is also a faint connection she makes about hugo in the back of her thoughts.)
she doesn't think how he reacts marks him as a freak or a monster, only someone who's been shaped by his past and trauma, someone who seeks love so much that it blinds him.
she sighs and reaches for his face as has almost become habit for her these days. ]
Every time you make me understand how tired Adolphe is makes me want to cry, you know.
[ her tone is light, teasing, but she really questions herself when she sides more with adolphe than yves. ]
[ at least she's no longer cold and shivering even if the vibes post-trial could be better.
elysia is walking around while scrolling through photos on her phone, but when she sees yves, her hand automatically reaches out for him, a question that her thoughts ask for her: are you okay?
between marcoh and siffrin and everyone else here, there's a lot to worry about. ]
[ ok iT'S OVER!!!!!!!!!! YVES IS MAKING HIS ROUNDS TO SEE PEOPLE and he's bringing a gift with him. it's a paper flower again, but this time in the shape of a lycoris, just like the ones on his halo. it has both red and black petals, and it truly looks so hilariously goth from someone so sunshiney
but he'll offer it out anyway ]
Ellie, will you accept this? Though I have something else for you too.
weekend 0, saturday
elysia is a cute girl drawn to cute things, so where else would she be but in a cute cafe full of cute and aesthetic food?
she's looking at the bunny and bear shaped fruit sandwiches in front of her with a slightly torn expression. ]
I can't eat you....

elysia is building something in the sand. not quite a castle, but more like the beginnings of a labyrinth. ]

—Excuse me! Have you seen Adolphe? Brunette, about this tall, as surly as anything?
[ uh oh ]
no subject
elysia has no reliver lore hilariously, so all she can do is stare at everything that is new for a second. His question makes her heart ache.
Good thing she's witnessed so much shit she easily responds without skipping too many beats. ]
Surly? No, I haven't seen someone like that lately.
[ neither are lies. ]

Hi. You okay? That one was tough.

I'm pretty sure it'll become sadder each and every week.

anyway he's around the area, probably just exploring the graveyard a little bit more. he waves hello when he sees that he has company ]
Hey, Ellie. Where's your favorite place around here?
no subject
anyway, she waves back. ]
Hi, Yves. Hmm... it's not too different from the other side. The meadow with all the flowers... but the petting zoo is also super cute.
[ she'd love the fair if the rides were less broken. ]
