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.]]

True, but it was still foolish of him to leave traces of Klados behind when he knew that there were two other users still alive.

...I guess he assumed because he didn't know doppelgangers turned to sludge when hurt, that the others wouldn't either.

Which really wasn't all that smart of him, yeah.

[ Yeah, Rean just dunked on someone. Granted said someone had a hand in Olivert's death, but yep. ]

[personal profile] raventhaw 2020-01-30 04:24 am (UTC)(link)
Exactly.

[ dist is...dist, so shin should've seen it coming!! ]

Not like he was much of a loss, though. I think he did us all a favor.

[ Clearly...!!!

Though he'll pause at her words, and oh. He believed he understood what she was getting at. ]


By acting so he'd end up in the position he was, you mean?

[ Rean couldn't say he disliked Shin before he had taken action, even if he had been...kind of unnerving, to be honest. ]

[personal profile] raventhaw 2020-02-02 07:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes. Revealing his true nature to us also revealed that he'd be more of a detriment than an asset.

[ STONE COLD. ]

[ Goddess, Raven.

...But, honestly? Shin deserved it. Rean felt a little bad for thinking that way. And yet it wasn't wrong, so. ]


I just wish he hadn't decided to drag more people down with him in doing so.

It is what it is.

[ she was never fond of any of them, so none of their deaths are really much of a loss to her. ]

He and Sirius are both two less threats to our group, now that they're gone.

[ Oh Raven...just telling like it was as usual. ]

...Yes. Though, as things stand, I don't think we can have this keep happening for so long, Raven.

I don't know what can be done now, but...I think you have an idea of what I'm getting at.
raventhaw: (Oyy4Db0)

[personal profile] raventhaw 2020-02-04 04:10 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, don't worry. I do.

[ she looks at him expectantly. ]

I definitely do.

[personal profile] reanbeans 2020-02-04 04:59 am (UTC)(link)
...I'm glad you do, though I expected as much. You've always been blunt and to the point, but you're a reasonable person.

[ At least he thought so. ]

You don't think it'll be long, do you? Before everyone realizes the same thing.

I wouldn't say I'm a fan of people dying unnecessarily.

[ says raven, who killed the previous spring maiden to inherit her powers. sure it may have seemed like a necessity, but the act was mostly out of selfishness.

fear.
]

I'd be surprised if everyone else hasn't. People need to realize that we're all on borrowed time here. Unless we're all content to let ourselves die here -- like a certain someone we know -- then we have no other choice but to act.

[ Dear Aidios, Raven...at the very least he's happy to hear her say that.

And yeah he understand vaguely who she was referring to. If they weren't holding such a serious conversation, he would've facepalmed. ]


...And take a clue that acting in the Lady's best interests to take the motive isn't the best way to go about things.

Though, I know at least one of us doesn't seem to really care about these things at all.

[ And no, it's not Dazai he's talking about. It's Ulquiorra. ]

You get it.

[ she's proud of you, rean!! she'll even give him a smirk of approval (tm) for his thoughts. well done. (??) ]

And of course he doesn't. He hardly cares about anything, if I'm being honest.
reanbeans: (62)

[personal profile] reanbeans 2020-02-04 07:02 pm (UTC)(link)
Haha, I'm glad to hear you say so.

[ Rean couldn't remember the last time he's seen her smirk. Maybe it was because of the situation but getting any approval from her felt hard won and a little satisfying. ]

Yeah, you're right. Let's just continue to look for clues and weaknesses in our captors' plans. There's bound to be something ground-breaking somewhere so we can form an effective plan ourselves.
