WEEK 2

[umbralant]

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.]]

modly mods: mcdonalds investigation!!!

[raventhaw]

[ alright. so. let's start by checking out the fast food restaurant. mcdonalds? what kind of name... whatever, maybe there's something valuable in here. let's check out the kitchen area and take a look at all the machines. is there anything to note about them other than they're not powered on?

other than investigating, you can catch her sitting inside, sipping on her usual cup of tea, reading a book from the bookstore.

later, raven can be found in the museum. yes, she is investigating the t-rex (and i don't need mod assistance for this one!!), and yes, she is on its back. literally sitting on its back, writing something in her notes. raven. what are you doing. ]

museum

[pr159]

[ So, in addition to big swords, she's also into riding. Also noted. ]

Having fun?

[raventhaw]

Don't get the wrong idea. I climbed up here to investigate.

[ UH-HUH...SURE, RAVEN.... ]

[pr159]

[ r i g h t ]

And how goes the investigation?

[raventhaw]

...Fruitless.

[ loathe as she is to admit it. ]

[pr159]

A shame when it seemed so promising.

museum

[psychophant]

[...he was just getting ready to leave, but uh.]

How did you get up there...?

[did you use a ladder or did you just climb that thing, because he legitimately wouldn't be surprised either way.]

...Are you going to be able to get down?

[raventhaw]

I have my ways.

[ some bullshit parkour, tbh ]

Your worries are appreciated, but I'll be fine. I came up here to get a closer look at this, but it doesn't look like I've found anything.

[psychophant]

I have a hard time imagining that there would be anything else up there. I already found some strange... key-card thing in its mouth.

[THAT SURE IS A THING THAT HAPPENED.]

[raventhaw]

That'd explain it.

[ give her a second to swing her legs over to one side and then just...

jump down from the t-rex and land like it's fucking nothing!!! rwby physics are just Like This... ]

Did you figure out what it's for?

1 / 2

[psychophant]

[RAVEN YOUR KNEES!!!!!!!!! ARE YOU OKAY]

2 / 2

[psychophant]

[...oh, looks like you're fine—

anyway moving on.]

I did, yes. It opened the door to the lab here.

[pulls the card out of his robes!! he's keeping it, it's his now.]

I don't know if it will have any other use, but I decided I'd hold onto it just in case.

Investigation

[umbralant]

[Let's see...all the machines and appliances show signs they have been used for quite a long time, but not recently at all. Everything is sparkling clean, too. Maybe too clean. True, most of Krakow has been nicely cleaned up, but it seems McDonald's kitchen was scrubbed with passion]

[raventhaw]

[ geez... okay. let'd dare to open the freezer. what's the state of things....in it..... ]

[moonfang]

[The freezer is in a bit of a state. Boxes opened, bags of food strewn about... and a familiar horned idiot with a bag made of priest-wear digging around in everything]

[raventhaw]

[ wh..... ]

Zangetsu. [ a pause. ] What are you doing?

[moonfang]

Oh, Raven.

[he turns, grinning and holding a bag of still well-frozen burger patties in his hand]

I'm rescuing these poor burgers from rotting away.

investigate: T-rex wrangler

[p_q]

I see nothing in all this trash to be worth such a vantage point.

[Here's your regular ray of sunshine, hands in pockets and doing absolutely nothing of use, except that he's like. Standing on another paleontology exhibit?? It's probably covered by a sheet?? Literally what are both of them even doing here, and is he just jealous that she stole the top spot or something. No one knows.

She is getting an unimpressed stare from slightly lower down, so there's that. How is he even keeping his footing on some pile of bones he can't see, no one knows that, either.]

[raventhaw]

Says the person standing on top of another exhibit.

[ she gives him a shrug. ]

It's a nice change of scenery when you need some peace and quiet, at the very least.

[p_q]

It's enough for me to see the majority of this place and its purpose. It's merely a collection of bones and human relics.

[Open museum floor plans, man -- or at least this area of it, the place where they keep the biggest figures and everything else. They can both hang out like terrible museum-goers and judge the merchandise.

Granted, he'd judge anything in the city because it's all human -- but the museum gets a particular sort.]

I wouldn't call this place especially quiet.

[He's probably not referring to Raven; it's like the first day of an open house in here, have you seen the people crawling into the exhibits and the labs.]

museum

[soumettre]

[ Oh hi Raven. Polite boy is going to call out from below. ]

Are you sure that's safe to be climbing on?

[ Yes she's on it just fine, but he'll ask anyway. ]

[raventhaw]

[ hi, polite boy. raven stares at him a little before she turns so her legs are dangling off of one side of the t-rex. ]

I appreciate the concern, but I'll be fine up here. Unlike some people I'm not afraid of heights.

[soumettre]

[ He just sighs. ]

I am not afraid of heights. These usually are meant for display only.

[ Despite saying that, he's moving towards a leg to see how sturdy it is and if he can climb it. ]

[raventhaw]

[ a small smirk, then: ]

And what made you think I was talking about you?

[ otherwise though, she'll watch him attempt to feel for the t-rex's sturdiness, then: ]

Daring, aren't you.

[soumettre]

[ Yuzuru just makes a face at her for taking mild offense, then starts to climb to the top of the leg... Er. Somewhere around there. ]

Says the young woman already up there. I hope the view is pleasant.
