WEEK 1

WEEK 1


Your hosts have come and gone, and have left you with nothing but more questions and a key. Regardless of how you reacted or what you decided to do soon after that, it’s a fact that the day must end eventually.

And so it does, with the striking of the clock. As the twelve gongs reverberate and disappear into the night, the rest of the city is left silent save for a chilly wind that skims the streets. Those who have retired to their assigned rooms will find that the furnishings are decent enough to get a good night’s sleep, while those who wander the city will only continue to see empty streets and fog. But regardless of how you spend the night, eventually it will become readily apparent that dawn will not be coming any time soon as the waxing moon continues to hang in the sky even as the clock strikes six or seven or eight.

No one’s stopping you from wallowing in bed or holing up in a building during this perpetual night, but there’s a whole city out there to check out and some interesting additions to the Opera House decor; don’t forget though, a cage is a cage and every good cage needs its bars. While a portion of the streets and buildings are clear, any intrepid explorers won’t find themselves able to get very far through the fog that surrounds them; anyone who tries to venture through will end up getting turned around and end up right back where they started. Still, there’s plenty of other places to check, even if the fog-shrouded buildings are more or less off limits. Fortune favors the bold, after all.

[[Welcome to Week 1! Feel free to make top levels at your discretion, and remember to note it in your header if you plan on investigating any locations. You can also now privately contact The Lady or Rembrandt at your leisure!]]

[Well. He's not wrong, honestly.]

If you want, you could meet him and see if he is well-suited or not.

[Dazai is a gremlin and Ango feels no shame in submitting others to his gremlin ways.]

I can't say I have any such interest. I've already seen plenty of results from this group, though there's not much else to look at.

[AKA he's pretty damn sure there will be another herding done by their illustrious hosts sooner or later -- it's debatable whether he'll even show up at future ones given the ridiculousness of this last one, but. Well. Who knows. Meetings seem to be in vogue, after all.

He'll ignore them for the moment. Though for the moment, he also hasn't moved on to the next profile just yet.]

Oh? But there's twenty-seven people here. Getting to know all of them takes time.

[He does notice that Ulqui hasn't moved on, but doesn't comment on it yet.]

And soon to be much less.

[He states it like an immutable fact, like the weather, the barely-living city around them. He's already hardly acknowledging a good chunk of their fellow captives because he's, you know, a prideful shithead, so the fact that they're all disposable isn't winning them any favors.

Never mind that he's among their number in very real ways. Perhaps he's not acknowledging that part either, or perhaps it's something else.]

Do you actually plan to "get to know" all of them regardless?

Depending on how long it takes for people to start dying, I might not be successful. But I would like to do that, yes.
