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.]]

...So how do you feel about the fish?

[drydrown]

Must we.

[god you can practically see his soul leave his body]

[psychophant]

Oh dear, did you really find them all that terrible?

[WE MUST.]

[drydrown]

I'm sure the fish are perfectly fine, I merely don't like being in that area very much.

[...it's creepy down there.]

[psychophant]

I imagine it would be less inherently creepy with some more light.

[drydrown]

Possibly.

[he still doesn't like it.]

Even so, it's not anywhere I'm in a particular hurry to spend time in.

[...he is not sure he likes where this conversation is headed. as long as it is not headed toward the fish that is fine.]

[psychophant]

Understandably so.

[...he says, like he didn't spend a ridiculous amount of time in there watching the fish.]

Well, perhaps some other area has opened up that you'll find more interesting.

[drydrown]

"More interesting" is overstating it. It's largely things I don't understand.

[psychophant]

Oh? What did you come across?

[...he's been here since this morning leave him alone...]

[drydrown]

A building full of equipment that I've never seen before, and I...believe I found this world's equivalent of the tavern? They call it McDonald's.

[psychophant]

...What kind of name is that for a tavern?

[drydrown]

A bad one.

[psychophant]

Obviously.

What was it like, aside from the horrid name?

[drydrown]

Like everywhere else in this place: dark and full of things I'm not familiar with.

[psychophant]

Sounds dreadful.

[Guess he'll have to go check it out at some point...]

It seems strange that they would allow us access to more areas.

[drydrown]

Does it really? It seems like the sort of thing they would do. We did as they asked so now they're rewarding us like pets.

[psychophant]

Hmm, I suppose. They are infuriating like that.

[drydrown]

They are.

[...]

I see the conditioner is working for you. Do keep it up.

[psychophant]

[He glances away at that.]

Yes, of course, I plan to.

[drydrown]

Come now, don't be shy. It looks nice.

[psychophant]

Of course it does. I'm hardly the sort to be shy about my good looks.

[oh my god.]

[drydrown]

Then look at me, will you?

[psychophant]

[...if looks could kill, we'd have another murder on our hands.]

Why.

[at least he's looking!!]

[drydrown]

That's better.

[oh my god will you relax it's like no one's ever flirted with you before-

...

you do not get flirted with do you]

You'll get used to it eventually.

[psychophant]

[not like this at least............]

And here I thought you weren't going to make a habit of it.
