WEEK ONE: MONDAY, 8PM, THE POOL

[ for the record, dave actually shows up at the dinner served by the motel for some reason on monday, drifting over to sit with velvet, so he. kind of ate? she probably glared at him until he ate. why is she terrifying.

he's been probably a wreck most of the day but what else is new and he kind of slides onto the opposite side of the picnic table if that's where dirk is, looking anywhere but dirk for a minute or two before focusing and saying: ]

Yo.

[ he has to find a better way to start these things. ]

WEEK ONE: MONDAY MORNING

[ so he didn't have time to track her down yesterday in the wake of everything, but first thing monday morning dave will try to track emily down, waving her down when he spots her. ]

Hey, Ems, you have a second or two? [ there's actual concern in his voice and it's probably about the night terrors but it's also because he's not Sure if he's too late for warnings about other things, just yet. he is an idiot and should have thought of this yesterday instead of getting caught up in alternate universe drama. ]

WEEK ONE: TUESDAY, THE DINER

[ while dave's instructions were vague at best (waiting in town where) the place dirk can find him is the big belly diner, sitting on one of the barstools nearest the jukebox. he's leaning back against the counter and seems to be mostly staring off into space, though he is listening to a song he heard the other day with someone else.

for once he will not do the "sup" thing though he kind of nods awkwardly when he spots dirk and seems to refocus. ]

...

[ is this better than the "sup" or "yo" thing. shit. ]

WEEK ONE: WEDNESDAY, THE STORAGE ROOM

[ HELLO MOD ACCOUNT, TIME FOR DAVE TO DO A THING, ALONE, BY HIMSELF. ALONE.

haha shit this is so stupid, thank god he maybe chose not the inevitable door that's gonna kill him??

anyway, using stealth ninja skills he will find a time to get at the door alone, and let himself inside. what the hell does he see? ]

WEEK ONE: WEDNESDAY, THE POOL

[ so. assuming dirk is still keeping to the schedule, he will find dave skipped dinner tonight but does show up at the poolside around eight, his hands in his pockets and looking...

even more neutral than ever? or. kind of scattered. it's hard to read him still, probably, but he mostly looks about two seconds from jumping the fuck off of something tall.

his first question is: ]

If I ask you to lie to everyone for me, will you. English included.

[ hey what's up how are you today dirk ]
