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.]]

Honestly, Cumore holding onto it for so long was a surprise in of itself. He reached out to carefully and gingerly take it. And there's a bittersweet smile on his face, also tinged with a good amount of gratefulness. Because it's something else to remember Oliver by.
And coming from Cumore, Rean felt like it meant a lot. ]
...Thank you for holding onto it, Cumore. I really do appreciate it.

[There are a few reasons he could cite for doing this. Rean has always been decent to him; he went out of his way to talk to him after the second trial when he was kind of a shitshow. He's been helpful, in his own way.
That involves actually saying any of those things.]
It seemed like something you might want, that's all.
no subject
You weren't wrong about that all.
[ ... ]
Did you also want to chat with me a little while? Since we're both attending this party anyway.
no subject
Of course. I wouldn't mind.
[He'll...just join Rean properly then; he doesn't seem interested in eating or drinking anything, but that's just sort of how he is at these things.]
no subject
I had been a little curious...on your profile it mentioned you had a sister?
no subject
[She is also apparently a good topic of discussion?]
no subject
[ He figured that there was no harm in asking this question either. ]
no subject
[He says, with all the affection in the world. His sister is a bitch and he loves her.]
She's a bit of a firebrand, but she's incredibly strong-willed. If she wants something done, she'll find a way to accomplish it, regardless of opposition. She's a bit aggressive for most people's tastes, and I can't say I blame them; she's not the sort that's well-suited for marriage, let's put it that way. Entirely too much to ask her to devote to another person.
[She's gonna be single forever, Rean.]
But I do trust her, personally; she lives with me, I tell her more or less everything.
no subject
...She certainly sounds like she has a lot of personality, just by hearing that. At the very least it's nice to hear you two get along well.
[ He wondered vaguely if she and Sara might get along as friends if they ever met. ]
Admittedly, I was mostly curious because I have a sister myself; though she's the younger one in the family.

no subject
[ Though of course Rean would prefer she'd never have to because lol protective older brother. ]
She's also kind and reliable, as I know she's made herself someone everyone can rely on at the school she attends. I'm grateful to have the opportunity to be her older brother.
