WEEK 3

WEEK 3


Another week, another set of bodies to add to the pile. Two lured in by The Lady's machinations, and another two done in by misfortune; six of your number are dead already. Who knows who it will be the next time? And for what reason? Nevertheless, there’s no choice but to keep pushing on in your own way; whether that means barricading yourself inside your room for the rest of your stay, leaving artwork of your fellow Survivors around the housing area, or eating all the raw meat in the vicinity… well, everyone deals with things differently.

Either way, you understand the drill by now, yes? Another portion of the city reveals itself as the fog retreats yet again, lampposts lighting the way to the new areas as usual. The full moon wanes to half this week too, so make the most of it.

[[Welcome to Week 3! Note that new areas have been added, and can be found under the Week 3 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.]]

Speakin' of our blue-eyed friends, I took my night vision goggles and took a better look at 'em in their.... natural habitat? Found a dark store front and inside there were 20, maybe 30 of the damn things. Some of them were just blobs with useless limbs, some of them looked like reptiles, some of them stood on two legs like people... but none of them were even kind of human. And they're big. Plus, even though I was hidin' under the window, they could sense I was there. And they damn near broke down a brick wall to get at me.

Oh, Ulquiorra was there too.

Second thing; at this week's trial, I'm takin the hint box hit. These things seem to be like Hollows, and I already am one. I can handle it better than the rest of ya.
pr159: (sell us things which are already ours)

Oh? Very generous of you.

[ No argument! ]
moonfang: (listen closely this time)

[personal profile] moonfang 2020-01-22 11:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Ain't generosity. I suck at detective stuff so this is how I can... ugh... help, I guess. Pull my weight. Plus, if the "experiments" are turning us into soul hungry monsters, well.. I already have plenty of experience controlling those sorts of instincts. In short, I'm way less likely to turn into a liability.

baitless: bringing a hand up to his face thoughtfully. (chai... just means tea...)

[personal profile] baitless 2020-01-23 12:11 am (UTC)(link)
For the record, I put myself forward for a similar reason. I never really had to deal with those sorts of violent urges before, admittedly, but the physical changes don’t bother me that much outside of being inconvenient.

It can be a pain. But if you need advice...
baitless: a very subtle smile. (ah yes st. cethleann.)

[personal profile] baitless 2020-01-23 10:28 pm (UTC)(link)
I will be sure to keep you in mind and ask you, yes.

If they weren't human, then what were they like?

And please wait until other possibilities have been exhausted before taking the hint.
moonfang: (noogies)

[personal profile] moonfang 2020-01-23 01:34 am (UTC)(link)
Ya ever see that movie, "The Thing"? Or any movie where there's like, radioactive mutants? A lot of them are like that.

Yeah yeah, I plan on it. But if we need it, we need it.

[Oh. Yeah he's seen that movie.]

...well that is terrifying.

[personal profile] moonfang 2020-01-24 02:01 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah. And they were all lookin' right at me. So I got the hell outta dodge.
bawcock: (♪ never meant to do those things to you)

[personal profile] bawcock 2020-01-23 12:12 am (UTC)(link)
Are you sure? I can't see a guy like you waffling once he's made a decision, but I want to make sure no one has any regrets.
moonfang: (is that so)

[personal profile] moonfang 2020-01-23 01:35 am (UTC)(link)
Positive. Having inhuman body parts and wanting to eat everything in sight isn't new or scary fer me. It's my usual state of being when I'm outside Ichigo, actually.

[ He'll sigh. He didn't doubt he could stop him (would he want to by the end of this week though?) but it was what it was. ]

Speaking of which, I spoke to Rembrandt at the beginning of this week, and he confirmed that the reason those native inhabitants have the appearance they do now is because of the same thing that happened to 'us', happened to them.
