WEEK 2

WEEK 2


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.]]

Now I wish I'd said something sooner. I was waiting until we all gathered again, but...

[ This is a gathering so, might as well say it here. ] Last week Seteth said something that made a lot of sense to me. I decided to ask one of those two about it to see what they said and they actually answered.

Rembrandt told me that that thing we all survived—it was whatever they did to give us these powers.

[ that actually gets raven interested. ]

So we survived at least one of their experiments. Is that what you're saying?

Yeah. I didn't get to ask too much more about it, though.

Do ya know if they picked which powers to give each person? Or was it just whichever of them showed up after... whatever they did?
bawcock: (♪ never meant to do those things to you)

[personal profile] bawcock 2020-01-14 02:57 am (UTC)(link)
Sorry, I've got no idea. Things got off track right after that, I wasn't able to ask too much more.

[ All because Rembrandt doesn't know what a mook is. Tsk, tsk. ]

[saint seiros how horrifying. he's trying not to look too concerned in Lysithea's direction, but he definitely visibly blanches...]

I... well, I suppose that's a small comfort when it comes to the state of our worlds, but it's...

I knew it had to be something like that. Not - I didn’t ask, but that was my gut feeling.

What, these bullshit baby powers? They could have picked any number of powerless losers and they chose exceptional people? [he rolls his eyes]
