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!]]

I'm holding a meeting tomorrow at 12:30 in the dining room.

[ He didn't fault him for missing the notes because rest. ]

She's keeping a closer eye on us by hanging around in there. Or at least that's what she told me.
tokihanate: (huh)

[personal profile] tokihanate 2020-01-08 03:09 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, I'll drop by, I suppose.

... Wow, what a creep. [ Says the one who stalks small girls. ]

[personal profile] reanbeans 2020-01-08 03:47 am (UTC)(link)
[ He's happy to know Hyobu will come by, considering everything. ]

...She even reasoned it by saying she was there to make sure nothing goes wrong.
tokihanate: (wow really)

[personal profile] tokihanate 2020-01-08 03:49 am (UTC)(link)
"Nothing goes wrong.".... then what's going right, I wonder.
reanbeans: (51)

[personal profile] reanbeans 2020-01-08 04:19 am (UTC)(link)
That's the question of the hour, isn't it?
tokihanate: (distant eyes)

[personal profile] tokihanate 2020-01-08 04:22 am (UTC)(link)
[ He gives a scowl. ] Tch. They're the cause of the wrong to begin with.
reanbeans: (117)

[personal profile] reanbeans 2020-01-08 04:50 am (UTC)(link)
[ He'll nod. ]

I'd say the irony was lost on them, but I'm sure they know that well enough.

It doesn't make it any less frustrating, though.
tokihanate: (you're stupidly cute)

[personal profile] tokihanate 2020-01-08 05:20 am (UTC)(link)
Makes me feel like acting out. [ Because he's childish af. ]
reanbeans: (14)

[personal profile] reanbeans 2020-01-08 06:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Really? Do you have something in mind?

[ Rean wasn't because that wasn't who he was, but he wasn't about to stop someone from annoying their captors a little. ]
tokihanate: (go on then)

[personal profile] tokihanate 2020-01-08 07:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Just giving them a message. Messages. After all, they gave us a large playground to play in, why not use it?
reanbeans: (46)

[personal profile] reanbeans 2020-01-09 12:33 am (UTC)(link)
Well, I'm all for finding a way to take what we could from this situation. Especially if there's some permanent marker lying around.

[ Ba dum tish ]
tokihanate: (heh you're dumb)

[personal profile] tokihanate 2020-01-09 01:14 am (UTC)(link)
Was that an attempt at a joke? [ He gives a grin anyway. ] But I'll see what mischief I can get up to later.
reanbeans: (6)

[personal profile] reanbeans 2020-01-09 10:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Haha, yeah...

[ He looked a little sheepish. ]

Alright. I'll be looking forward to it.
tokihanate: (you're stupidly cute)

[personal profile] tokihanate 2020-01-10 01:26 am (UTC)(link)
Oh you'll definitely see it.
