WEEK 5

WEEK 5

monday

tuesday

wednesday

thursday

Was what happened on Friday yet another tragedy in a string of them or just a complete shitshow? Well, regardless of which line of thought you subscribe to, the reality of it is that another three of your number are no longer in this realm with you. At least the remains of what had happened last week have been neatly cleaned up as always, even if that might not change what’s been etched in your memories. The drum set in the jazz bar remains busted though, because the masterminds aren't that generous. At least the tarot shop and boutique remain fine even if the vanished crystals and women's clothing aren't going to be restocked.

But either way, it’s a new week, and that means new locations to explore as the fog gives way to more of the city and its lamplit streets. The new moon waxes to half this week, appearing as a crescent moon for most of the week. It's far from optimistic, but maybe the brightening is a sign that this will be over soon...? Or maybe it just means the worst is yet to come, it's hard to say.

[[Welcome to Week 5! Note that new areas have been added, and can be found under the Week 5 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.]]

"Indisputably useful" people would be be able to stop tantruming over how terrible their lives are long enough to be productive, but you wouldn't know anything about that either way.

[psychophant]

[gods why did he ever tell people he'd try to stop being petty this is so difficult, but bless cumore in these trying times. so he's not actually saying anything, but damn if he doesn't look pleased anyway.]

[pr159]

I'm sorry, how many lives have you personally saved again? And how many medical examinations have you done here, and how much have you contributed to actually identifying the correct culprit?

But if that's what you need to tell yourself to pretend you're anything more than a useless appendage here, go ahead, Mr. Commandant -- oh, wait.

[drydrown]

[He just smiles and shrugs at that, with all the force of a Hispanic grandmother picking up an errant toddler that's fallen on their face and carrying them like a sack of potatoes. The Aww, Pobrecito effect, if you will.]

You are so angry that no one cares about your survival but you. Sorry no one was willing to argue on your behalf when it mattered, but it's been really satisfying watching you try to deal with the notion that you aren't indispensable. You're doing a very bad job at it, incidentally.

If you're done with your little fit now, the rest of us would like to go back to actually discussing things?

[pr159]

I can table this for now, but I'd love to hear a list of your meaningful accomplishments later. I'm sure we can both manage to set aside ten seconds.

[baitless]

Can we please get back to the topic at hand. Please.

[drydrown]

If your accomplishments were that meaningful, you wouldn't be having this little problem in the first place, now would you?

Keep trying, though, it's cute.

[pr159]

So is your desperate need to get the last word. I thought you were going to get back on topic?

[ SORRY SETETH... ]

[drydrown]

And here I thought your point was that you're the indisputably useful one...? I've already said my piece, after all.

[inordertobelieve]

[ He's not going bother trying to interrupt this, but he is going to lay his head down on his hands, because, why. Why. ]

[drydrown]

[look normally he lets rideaux and his bullshit go but today he is just not here for

...anything really but particularly this]

[pr159]

Then I'd suggest you stop talking.

[drydrown]

I have no problem doing so at this point, simply because you've more than ensured that no one else has to call you worthless. Thank you for the demonstration into why that would be redundant.

[He's just going to put his head down again after that because ew hangovers are gross, who fucking knew.]

[pr159]

Really didn't disprove my point there.

[ aaand heading to the other side of the room then, enjoy your hangover, you pansy ass bitch ]

[notbymyside]

...Dazai-kun, can you silence them for a few minutes?

[HE IS TIRED OK?]

[deadlygoals]

[ !!! pulling out a glass and looking at Ango. This? He means this, right? ]

[notbymyside]

[Thumbs-up. Do your magic, Dazai.]

[deadlygoals]

[ He'll move in close to Ango to help filter out any sounds. Opening the jar long enough to record silence before closing it again.

He'll then put the jar about 12 feet away, making sure it overlaps both of them.

Then he'll move away doo de doo, dragging Ango with him the whole time.]

Okay time to go.

[ Who wants to be silenced for ten minutes? Because it's getting activated right there. ]

[inordertobelieve]

[ Honestly? This is a great improvement to the situation. Finally he can drink his coffee in peace. ]
