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.]]

[deadlygoals]

There's no crab or alcohol here. Also being kidnapped and expected to kill people is a turn off.

[inordertobelieve]

... so if none of these things are what makes you have fun, allegedly, what is it then? Poland and eternal darkness?

[ That's almost a weirder combination to enjoy than kidnapping and murder. ]

[deadlygoals]

[ Pfft. ]

I guess I might be enjoying the others here.

[ As much as he can enjoy anything that is. ]

[inordertobelieve]

[ Huh.

Mikami looks bewildered. Whether it is because he didn't take Dazai to be the type or because he himself hadn't enjoyed anyone's company in a dozen years, who knows. ]

.... seems unwise.

[deadlygoals]

I know. You can enjoy the company of others without exposing your back.

[inordertobelieve]

How shallow.

[ Said Mikami, certified expert in meaningful relationships. You know what, he's going to keep weight lifting now during this conversation because at least that way he feels productive. ]

[deadlygoals]

Ah. Are you the all in or not at all kind then?

[ Mikami needs to get laid where are all the single people ]

[inordertobelieve]

There's no point to merely making small-talk with a person you can't truly be compatible with. It's a waste of time that could be spent better.

[ Please help him, he's a virgin. ]

[deadlygoals]

[ He can auction him off or make it into a bachelor game show ]

Never know if you're compatible until you make small talk.

[ Also it looks like Mikami is multi-tasking just fine? ]

[inordertobelieve]

Their life circumstances can give you a clue.

[ Maybe. Who knows. He's had one friend in his adult life and she recently burned to death. So that's... an issue.]

[deadlygoals]

How do you know their life circumstances before talking to them?

[inordertobelieve]

Normal people have jobs that can be public knowledge.

[deadlygoals]

Whoa. I never took you as someone who looked into people's job history before talking to them. That's pretty shady~

[inordertobelieve]

Ugh.

[ Is this strain from working out or annoyance at Dazai? Yes. ]

You don't need to 'look into' anybody if you meet them in a professional context.

[deadlygoals]

Meeting them at work for work is boring though. People usually wear a mask when they go to work.

[inordertobelieve]

Well, yes. Professionalism is an important trait and being able to execute it well speaks well of the people.

[ Or like... the one person he ever met at work and then privately befriended. Yeah. He's doing well. He's an expert. Let's make this sound like a life philosophy. Somehow. ]
