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.]]

Not particularly, no. There's entirely too much at risk for me to consider taking an offer like that; I'm more troubled by the fact that she's offering this at all.
no subject
[He's curious, okay.]

[Mm.]
Hopefully she's an idiot that doesn't understand restraint. That wouldn't be surprising.
no subject
[But there's no guarantee, and he doesn't like it.]
no subject
He seems...pretty agitated by this topic, really; he's quieter than usual but he also seems entirely more abrupt, given that he doesn't seem to feel like being terribly gentle with the stuff he's going through. Stopping short of having a legitimate fit over it, but not by much.]
Either way, it's going to resolve itself somehow.
no subject
[He's noticed... It's probably best to let it drop for now.]
It seems you've picked up quite a few new outfits. Between the two of us, I'm surprised there are any clothes left.
no subject
[Zaphias nobility is...usually a little less frilly than this but not by much, so...
The topic change isn't relaxing him, exactly, but it's a little better from the sound of it.]
no subject
[He's trying very hard not to put uniform in quotes.]

You did manage to wear it for so long despite the cold. I'm impressed.

So who is she offering to kill for you? Through curiosity.
no subject
There are three people I could potentially ask her to target. One would drastically change things, and I can't say that erasing her would benefit me currently, because so much of what has happened is tied back to her. Removing her would change entirely too much.
The other two are better options, though once again, I can't say how things would look with either of them entirely removed from existence. Simply killing them would benefit me more - and even then, I'm not particularly interested unless I know the exact specifics of how such a thing could be carried out.
[Basically, there's entirely too much that he doesn't have control over, and he Doesn't Like It.]
no subject
[Mm.]
It's a stupid offer either way.
no subject
no subject
Was there anything else...?
no subject
No, no, I'll leave you be. Do tell me if Rideaux drops by at any point, though; I'm sure that can only go well.
[oh my god???]
