[ Life has gotten a whole lot more comfortable since the weekend. It's almost eerily easy to settle into a new daily life as though their original lives simply had no sway over them anymore. Maybe it's a desire to ward off this complacency that leads Ponta to standing in front of the closed Hero Memorial today, just kind of musing.
He's lost in thought, but as soon as Saya comes by he brightens up. Here's an enthusiastic wave!! ]
Yeah... there's a lot they're not saying. Like... this place? [ he points at the memorial ] I'd kind of like to know how exactly the people it's for lost their lives.
We're expected to take over the same duties that these people died for, and we're not even being informed what the risks are.
[ Four of the more established heroes dying dramatically kind of makes it feel like they, inexperienced as they are, would have a pretty hard time keeping up the fight... ]
Feels bad, man. Makes me think we're in more danger than they want us to know.
Mhm, there's like... sponsorships and stuff for if you're poor and want to do the sport. It's a better option than just staying where you are, you know?
[they are at (throws dart) the grocery store. saya is walking around, looking at the selection of food curiously, but it doesn't seem like she intends to buy anything.]
[ Ponta's been spending far too much time browsing the selection of a simple supermarket, because infinite cash is really enticing when you love cooking and normally live on a budget. ]
Fresh enough, I'd hope? I mean, to sell it before it goes bad it should probably be no older than two weeks at the absolute most...

Hey, hey, good morning! You settling in yet?
no subject
anyway, saya nods, coming up to him to look at the hero memorial. open your doors... stop being closed...]
Good morning. [hi.] I'm settling in okay. The decoration's a little strange, but I like my dorms and everyone on my team seems nice. How about you?

It's almost too good to be true, y'know?

It's so weird for an event that should have been really popular with the news.

[ He shrugs. ]
Though that's not always super the case in my world either.

I'm sure they'd be fine with poisoning us, but the actual citizens...? Hm.

[she thinks the city may be a wee bit too used to covering things up, tbh.]

[ With the way they keep being subjected to random compulsions, someone clearly has the means for it. ]
