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.

[Thanks to the pool being empty, you're able to look inside and see what's going on! Are there any keys in the middle of the pool?

...

Nope, doesn't seem like it's lying there. Still, if the Twilight residents said there was something in this area, then it had to be true, no?]

[reanbeans]

[ This was probably going to get dumb. ]

No. And I'm not kidding.

[ Let's knock on the walls? ]

[deadlygoals]

[ Wow. Olivert calls him my darling.

Dazai is just going to check the pool filters. Did they stick it in here? ]

Okay okay. No pet names.

[umbralant]

[The walls sound pretty solid, looks like the whole area was solidly built. It speaks a lot of how much Ulquiorra and Zangetsu fought, given a large iceberg was found stuck onto one of the walls of the pool.

The filters are empty! But if you're standing at the bottom of the pool checking the filters, you may be getting closer to jackpot!]

[reanbeans]

Find anything?

[ Time to join the other after his lack of success. ]

[deadlygoals]

[ Is there a pool light, a pool shark, or something else around here? ]

Nothing in the filters.

[umbralant]

[One of the pool lights seems to be in a mess. It's near the diving board, and the light, formerly well-attached to the side of the pool, now is all ruined and almost embedded into a large crack.

Hm?

There's the faint glint of something inside that crack]

[reanbeans]

...What's that?

[ Can they reach inside? ]

[deadlygoals]

Might be light we needed shined on this.

[ Do one of them need to climb on the other to reach it? ]

[umbralant]

[Yup. The lack of water makes it difficult to reach in there safely. Best of luck climbing on each other, guys!]

[reanbeans]

...You can climb on me, I'm the heavier one.

[ He's Ready. Time to go, Dazai! ]

[deadlygoals]

[ There's a sigh and a smile as he puts his hand on Rean's shoulder. ]

Here I was hoping I could try to look good for a once. Guess it can't be helped.

[ Boost him up? He's going to climb up his friend to reach that light. What do we have in here? ]

[umbralant]

[Reaching into the crack has some difficulty, looks like the object is nicely lodged in there, but, with some effort, Dazai will manage to get it out.

It's...a key! There it is!]

[reanbeans]

[ ...He'll look a little amused when Dazai said that? Sorry buddy you are awful at looking cool. ]

I'm sure looking cool really isn't that important anyway. Were you able to reach?

[deadlygoals]

Looking cool is very important. Just look at you, Mr. Instructor.

[ Pulling out the key. ]

I have it. Ready to go take a soak?

[reanbeans]

Haha, maybe.

[ What was relaxing?? Rean didn't know. ]

But let's go to unlock the spa.

[ Ontowards the hotel they go? ]

[deadlygoals]

[ And off they go. Or out of the drained pool they go and to the spa area. He'll hand the key to Rean to use in the lock though. ]

It was his gift to you.

[ Enjoy something Rean. ]
