OCT-Resort: New Year's Bash
Shuuya leaned back against the back of the sofa and let his head flop back with a sigh. He was experiencing that subtle disappointment that comes from spending all night with people he was forced to interact with all day. The judges had colonised the staff room for the purposes of a last-minute New Year's Party.
Admittedly it had been fun. For about five minutes. And then Shuuya remembered why he spent as little time with these people as possible: Seth had already made three cracks at Shuuya about his taste in drinks, with a clear momentum that suggested he could keep such hilarity up all evening. The evening had wound down to the point when
"Uhm... Sir?"
Shuuya managed to open an eye and stared rather unseeing at the worried face of a young recruit, holding a sheet of paper under her arm. She stumbled back as Shuuya scratched the back of his head and gave a yawn.
"Mmh? Yeah? What is it?" he asked, straightening up at the speed of continental drift.
"You said we were to come back when we had scored ten headshots..." she managed, holding up the bit of paper like a ward.
"Oh, yeah?" Shu managed, taking the paper as his brain tried to catch up to current events. "Let's see here."

Aonoi leaned back on her elbows and glanced over her shoulder as Shu counted pearls out of a little pouch and into the hand of the cashier.
"And yet he still paid for all of us," Mr. Ginsu observed, as Shuuya, food stacked on two trays, staggered his way to the table.
"He was aware that we were kidding, right?" Aonoi asked, raising an eyebrow and glancing around for confirmation.
"I told him we were joking " Kagayaku murmured. "Is he alright?"
"Hey, I can't speak for the rest of you," Alex explained, leaning back across two seats in a booth., "but I for one was serious, want my free burger!"
"Right, then," Shuuya muttered, placing t

"What kinda moron decided t'have round 1 be 'throw people out a plane and watch em parachute down'?"
The door to the Judge's Room was shoved open by a rather grubby foot. Look up the extended leg, up the rather damp suit, up the man's vest and up further to the unimpressed face of Shuuya Muto. His hair was dripping wet and he had the expression of a man ready to choke a bitch.
The only other person in the room, the pink-haired woman Shuuya knew only as Kagayaku, blinked and looked up from her reading material. Shuuya barely acknowledged her as he stomped into the room, hands stuffed into the pockets of his rather shabby suit trousers, and t
