WEEK 2

WEEK 2

monday

tuesday

wednesday

thursday

The first week is over, and two of your number are gone. Everything related to the case has been cleaned up, with nary a knife left at the Main Square nor a trace of the mud shapes that once painted the clock tower walls, although some stray graffiti still dots some storefronts.

However you may feel about the entire debacle on Friday, there’s no doubt that something has changed about the atmosphere, although whether it’s something tangible or just a trick of the mind is hard to say. Maybe it’s nothing. Either way, there are more palpable changes to the city, with some of the fog retreating away from a few of the surrounding areas, uncovering new buildings and streets along the way. The night, however, remains unchanged as always save for the slow waxing of the moon, leaving it bright and full as early as Thursday night. Regardless of if you take it as an omen or not, at least that means the streets will be lit up fairly well for the week, provided some inconvenient cloud cover doesn’t slide right in.

[[Welcome to Week 2! Note that new areas have been added, and can be found under the Week 2 tab on our Locations page. Once again, 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 privately contact The Lady or Rembrandt.]]

[...you know, he's not quite as into fish as certain other people he knows, but he can't help but be kind of delighted by the aquarium too? It's very neat... and, well, he's probably interested because Flayn would absolutely love this stuff...]

This really is fascinating, isn't it? I wonder how they make sure all the creatures are well cared for.

[psychophant]

[There's something really fascinating about seeing fish up close and personal like this, even though he has no particular attachment or interest in fish in general, but this is just!! really cool!!!]

I imagine Rembrandt is taking care of things here...? I doubt the Lady would bother with it herself, but who knows. Perhaps she's very fond of aquatic life.

[baitless]

Even if she is fond of aquatic life, Rembrandt is probably taking care of it. That seems to be how things operate around here for things that aren't executions.

[...because she sure took out hyoubu herself!!]

[psychophant]

Honestly, I wasn't expecting that from her. I thought she'd leave that to Rembrandt as well.

[That was. weird??? That was so weird.]

[baitless]

Well, she's enjoying this immensely. I suppose she must want to save the... best... things for herself while he does the grunt work.

[psychophant]

I do wonder why she was so angry with him, though... That seemed a bit strange even for her.

[like, she's petty, but she's not that petty, right??]

[baitless]

I think she may have been less than pleased he wasn't sobbing in despair over his fate, honestly.

[psychophant]

That's certainly possible. I can see why that would have angered her. She wants things to go a certain way and doesn't tolerate any deviations from the vision she has in her head.

[baitless]

Indeed. I am hoping we can ensure that happens to her more often than not, but I do not wish to see what kind of retribution we attract from it.

[psychophant]

Agreed. My hope is that she would be unwilling to harm us due to her desire to see us kill one another, but I doubt she'd be able to think clearly if we repeatedly anger her.

[baitless]

True enough. And, well... even if she does not wish to kill us, I am not sure what else the two of them could do to make our lives miserable.

[psychophant]

I'm sure they could find something if they really wanted to.

[baitless]

Precisely, which is why we must be cautious. There has to be a way to make them slip up without pushing them to anger...
