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.]]

I doubt that's the case. My theory is this artist encountered these creatures running amok and became obsessed with them. Said artist began to paint and sketch them in a fit of mania before they could no longer...

If what Rembrandt said is true, they probably weren't able to draw or clean after the transformation.

Oh, by 'they' I was referring to Rembrandt and the Lady. They've at least surface cleaned everything else we are using.
twoasone: (please just stop touching me)

... Wonderful. They're leaving breadcrumbs for us.

That doesn't surprise me. The Lady likes watching people's reactions. While Rembrandt seems the type that wants us to work for the answers.
twoasone: (Well you’re only scared of me)

I have to wonder what he has to gain from working with her.

[personal profile] deadlygoals 2020-01-15 08:04 pm (UTC)(link)
A purpose, a better life here, or maybe he enjoys her work?
twoasone: (We grew up so very close)

[personal profile] twoasone 2020-01-15 08:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Or something else... We may have to try and ask about that.

Go ahead. Just remember, he'll answer questions only if you answer his.

There's no purpose in giving answers to sacrifices. Unless you mean to say all of this is simply playing with her food.

[Which could be a thing, certainly, given the Lady's, ah, all of her. The whole thing seems a little roundabout, though.]

She definitely seems the type to play with her food.

Hmph. It's been some time since there was a being arrogant enough to see me as food.

[Because. Apparently vore as backstory is just a thing, okay??]

If that is what all this hinting and flaunting is about, her interests would be even pettier than I imagined.
