WEEK 5

WEEK 5


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.]]

[ Oh hey, Raven. Rean smiled once he spotted her. ]

Yeah, I am. Were you thinking of doing the same thing?

[ Honestly though it's been awhile since he's also had a good spar, so he vaguely tossed the idea around in his head as he continued stretches. ]
raventhaw: (at your conclusion)

[personal profile] raventhaw 2020-02-05 03:48 am (UTC)(link)
Yes.

[ she, too, starts doing stretches. always essential before a good work out, after all. ]

Have to prepare for the big finale, after all.

That's true. I don't doubt the high possibility of us needing to fight when things come to a head against our captors.

[ That it was. He's still doing some more himself, but... ]

And since we're both here trying to make sure we're in shape...how do you feel about maybe having a spar?

[personal profile] raventhaw 2020-02-06 06:20 am (UTC)(link)
A spar?

[ if she looks surprised...it's because she is. she does, indeed, have her sword with her, and she has been keeping in shape so... ]

Well, I won't say no to that. As long as you can keep up.

Haha, I don't think you need to worry about that. It'd be good if you didn't underestimate me.

[ There's a little fire in his eyes as he said this. Challenging even, judging by the tiny smile that might be kind of a smirk.

He'll get into position. ]


Let me know when you're ready, alright?
raventhaw: (black out the sky)

[personal profile] raventhaw 2020-02-07 09:30 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm always ready.

[ raven rarely ever lets her guard down, after all. she also gets into position, unsheathing her sword, looking at him. your move. ]

[personal profile] reanbeans 2020-02-07 09:56 pm (UTC)(link)
[ He'll make the first move.

Rean rushed towards her before unsheathing his blade in a horizontal arc towards her front. He expected she could deal with it well enough that he's not holding back. ]
