henlo friends it's that time again, toss in a prompt/starter/idea so we can thread

I've played and completed Royal, but I would prefer to remain unspoiled for Scramble!

Yessir.

[following him inside! and leaving his shoes in the foyer, now that the staff are chill with him entering]

[afailedmurder]

There's an extra yukata in the closet.

[along with the futon he never actually laid out before taking his "nap"]

[tookyourheart]

Thanks.

[Ren notices the unused futon and has to stifle another laugh, or Akechi really might lose it. He undresses quickly and puts on the yukata.]

It's nice in here. I can see why you were so relaxed.

[afailedmurder]

I was simply tired.

[grabbing a floor cushion to sit on]

[tookyourheart]

Exhausted from a life on the run?

[Finishes dressing, then moves to join Akechi.]

[afailedmurder]

Something like that.

I wonder if anyone's even looking. Everyone seems to think I'm dead.

[tookyourheart]

Shido's fan club must've had a hand in covering it up. Same as what happened to me.

[Ironic as it is to see the playbook Akechi used turned against him.]

[afailedmurder]

Most likely. It would still be prudent to adopt a new identity.

[tookyourheart]

Herlock Sholmes? ...Garo Okechi?

[afailedmurder]

[tookyourheart]

Left speechless by my cool and mysterious suggestions, I see.

[afailedmurder]

There's no need to go crazy with it. I'll just change my surname again.

[tookyourheart]

Any ideas so far?

[afailedmurder]

Well, it's not really my choice if I'm doing it illegally. The best way to create a new identity is to take it from someone who died, after all.

Heh. I'd feel sorry for any poor idiot who tried to become "Goro Akechi."

[tookyourheart]

Yeah, good point.

If you're keeping your first name, guess I'll have to call you Goro from now on?

[afailedmurder]

[!?]

It's possible I'll have to change that too, you know...

[tookyourheart]

Then pick a placeholder name for now, just to be safe.

[afailedmurder]

You're really putting me on the spot here...

[sigh]

You can use my name for now. I doubt it much matters.
