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.]]

baitless: he looks a bit tired, but less intensely so. (how vaguely and unhelpfully can i put it)

Ah... yes, I have known people like that. It has always been more of a hobby for me, but I do like to keep different perspectives in mind. You always learn something interesting if you do that.

[...it's still kind of hard to talk about what he actually is with basically strangers, but...]

...honestly, it would have been deeply awkward to try and marry any of my own kind, since in a manner of speaking, we are all family.

[He shakes his head.]

No, she was a human.

[ Well, he's not wrong; Rideaux's learning something kind of interesting right here. ]

With a typical human lifespan?

[ Were there others, or was he only getting laid for like, 50 out of his 2000 years... ]
baitless: an expression that can serve as either deep frustration or, perhaps, some level of grief. who can say. (i am so tired all of the time.)

Ah, I was able to extend her lifespan after we discussed it. I would not have if she did not agree to it, of course, but we were able to spend a few centuries together.

...I am not entirely certain how much time we would have had together had things simply been allowed to run their course, but she... she died in battle.

[and he's still so fucked up about it!! he's so fucked up about it.]
pr159: (let mine not be counted among them)

I see... That's certainly a shame.

[ and pretty ironic... like getting hit by a car a year after finding the fountain of youth. ]

I'm impressed that that's something you could do, though. [ AND INTRIGUED... ] I assume that's one of the abilities they took away when you came here.

...yes, it was.

[SNIFF......]

Honestly, I don't know much of an ability to do something like that I would have even without them trying to alter my abilities. I'm considerably less powerful than I used to be, and there are certain things I cannot do at all anymore.
