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.]]

Oh, it certainly is! Granted, my chair is hardly suitable for battle, but a flying ship absolutely would be. It would be very difficult for simple archers to take one down- and a struggle still for fonists. Ah, mages would be the equivalent term I believe?

[Dist would be happy to help Iago with those too, but well...it's not something that's been completely figured out yet. Maybe someday!

As for Iago's unfortunate strength stat...well. Mood? Mood.]


There is nothing wrong with a weaker constitution. I can tell that you certainly haven't let that get you down. Your strengths simply lie elsewhere.

[Let no one tell you otherwise Iago!!!]

[we are the biggest noodles in this game and we still want to throw down at every opportunity, this is a disaster]

Certainly, I am one of the strongest dark mages in Nohr. Not to brag, of course.

[of course.]

A flying machine with no weakness to arrows, however... That certainly would be greatly beneficial. Being difficult to take down by mages as well is simply fascinating... I must admit, Dist, I'm quite envious of your world. It sounds as though you have access to so many things that would make my life so much easier.

[The equivalent of tiny yappy dogs, truly.]

And there you have it!

[Brag away, man.]

Making life easier is why technology progresses in the first place, after all. It simply sounds as though the people of your world have not yet considered the ideas that the people of mine have. As I have said before, I am happy to give you a little push in the right direction.

It does seem as though my world has developed in different ways - our systems of magic seem entirely different, after all. [what the fuck is a fonon anyway] But even still, it is impressive...

I may have to take you up on that. There's plenty I'd like to learn from you.

[teach him how to build a robot!!!!!!!!!! or don't. please don't, actually. no one needs that.]

That does seem to be the case, yes. I believe it has to do with the particles of which our worlds are comprised. My world's magic is derived from said particles.

While I am more familiar with developing technology around these particles, I don't see why I couldn't make alterations for them to work with your world's resources. I was able to comprehend this world's technology with ease, uncooperative electricity aside...

[But that's a rant for another day.]

Feel free to stop by if you would like to hear me more about technology and robotics. I could even show you the inner workings of some of the machines present here- that mechanical monster, for instance.

[It's sort of surreal not being the smartest person in the room at any given moment... But he likes Dist, and Dist is willing to explain things to him, so this is surprisingly fine.]

I'll be sure to take you up on that. I would be very interested in learning more about the machines here - particularly that one. I have been reading what I can to get a better understanding, but there's only so much one can grasp from books alone.

[teach him all about the animatronic t-rex, senpai]

[personal profile] ortion 2020-01-22 11:24 pm (UTC)(link)
[I can't believe what became of that animatronic t-rex.]

Indeed. Nothing can compare to a hands-on demonstration!

[He so just wants an opportunity to feel cool and useful, let's be real here.]

Well, I should examine this laboratory now. I trust you have much you still wish to explore as well. I shall see you around, then?

[dist spent the entire time going THAT'S NOW HOW THIS SHOULD WORK it's canon now!!!]

Of course, Dist. Do let me know if you find anything useful.
