antumbrac | WEEK 4

WEEK 4

Last week could probably only be summed up as a mess. Three people died, one was turned to currency and the hotel pool remains in a general state of unusability unless swimming in pulpy mush is someone’s idea of a good time. And that’s not even counting the haunted morse code T-Rex. At least the greenhouse is as relaxing as ever, even if someone seems to have made off with a number of succulents and cacti.

But with the new week comes a new set of locations to explore as the fog retreats to reveal another portion of the city. The half moon wanes to a new moon this week, leaving streets even dimmer this week -- hopefully you have some other portable sources of light available if you plan on straying too far beyond the reach of the lampposts in the new areas.

[[Welcome to Week 4! Note that new areas have been added, and can be found under the Week 4 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.]]

No.

[ well you're getting a response anyway ]

A solid nine.

I don't recall asking for your opinion.

[ stares........... ]

I'm in a giving mood today, so you don't have to ask.

Are you unhappy that I didn't round it up to a ten?

I don't know if I should be more glad that you didn't.

[ rideaux you thirsty son of a gun ]

I'm just saying, if you ever want to let off some steam with no strings attached, the offer is there.

[ DEEP. BREATH. ]

Rideaux, as flattered as I am, that won't be necessary.

Suit yourself.

[ but if you change your mind, that offer ain't going anywhere ]

Feel free to rate the others instead.

[ He won't make her play ~~because she can kill everyone in this room~~ because it doesn't seem all that fair.]

Again. No.

[ she's a party pooper. i'm so sorry dazai. ]

Intimidated by it?

[He'll hold off on rating her though, since she said no.]

Hardly. I just don't see the point.

[ ...and maybe she is a little intimidated, but like hell she's going to admit that. ]

I don't blame you, this game is a bit ridiculous.

[HE SAYS, WHILE GLEEFULLY RATING OTHER PEOPLE]

You seem like an active participant to me, Iago.

[ SHE SEES WHAT YOU'RE DOING!!! ]

[DON'T CALL HIM OUT LIKE THIS]

Well, I do find it quite fun to fluster people. I suppose I'm guilty of that much, at least.

That's what you were trying to do?

[ a dry laugh, then: ]

It won't work on me, but I'm sure you could get a better reaction out of someone else.

Why do you think I didn't offer you a number?

[unlike a certain SOMEONE]

...I know a few people who could learn a thing or two from you.

[ SOME PEOPLE, MAN!!! ]

Quite a lot, if you ask me.

[HE'S STILL MAD!!!!!!! but anyway.]

It was nice of you to show up though, even if you have no interest in this silly game.

I only came for the food, but somehow I should have expected all of...this.

[ gestures at dazai's...everything. ]

He's been relatively well-behaved so far. If he has to be ridiculous, at least he's doing it like this.

[Instead of derailing a trial or something...]
