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.]]

[ This is one of the few times Shin will allow strangers to watch. After all, this still isn't his usual medium... ]

Good question. Do you think we'll have room in the living quarters to display all of them?

[notbymyside]

I don't like the implications by saying 'all of them'. But if you put one on each door, then I think you would have enough room, yes.

[twoasone]

I don't care for the possibility either, but that woman seems determined to thin our numbers.

[ Not that he's saying that in a tone that's too concerned with death... But he is in his element. ]

[notbymyside]

She certainly does.

...though if a time comes where I die, I must respectfully ask that you paint something else besides my person. Flowers, or something symbolic to me, that would be fine. But not my likeness.

[twoasone]

Hm...?

[ The smile fades. ] Why not? Is there something about yourself that's bothering you?

[notbymyside]

If I die before him, then I don't want a reminder there to slap him in the face every day.

[It should be obvious who 'he' is.]

[twoasone]

. . . You two must be rather close.

[notbymyside]

...

[He glances away as he adjusts his glasses. He's definitely hiding something here.]

We were, once.
