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.]]

[is this ulquiorra......]

Room 11? In the hotel? Could you, like... use more words. Please.

[umbralant]

[Maybe!! It is a mystery]

Housing. Hotel text cant read here. Demon books here. Blues(powers)+Survivors(souls) key to her plans. Find out why clock is working there.

[moonfang]

[dammit ulquiorra]

I am so confused. I hope someone else knows what the fuck you're on about.

[deadlygoals]

Looks like he left you a gift. I can break into his room. Also I think someone mentioned there was something past the gears powering up the clock tower. Might need your help freezing the gears to get to it.

[moonfang]

Room 11 was Batbrain's room. What the hell could he have for me... Hm. Well. I can do that.

[deadlygoals]

[ Should they warn everyone else they might be without a clock?

Nah. ]

It has to be important if he's even saying it in the first place.

[ Since it's him ]

I'll be counting on you.

[moonfang]

No time to lose, either. I'm doin' it tonight.

[deadlygoals]

[ Giving a nod. ]

Okay. So we have... three places to hit soon.

[bawcock]

[ A little unsure but, hm. Thinking! ]

After this, can you show me where the gears are?

[deadlygoals]

I can~ We can do it after we get the book.

[ One thing at a time. ]

I think Sirius mentioned it before at a meeting?

[ He could me mixing him up for someone else though ]

[bawcock]

Thanks, I didn't take a good look at the top of the tower so I can't really remember what it looks like.

[ A beat. ]

Oh yeah. It's up to you guys what you end up doing, but let's get a good look at the clock tower icing anything. If anything up there actually breaks and we end up needing it later, we'll be in trouble.

[deadlygoals]

[ Everyone invest in glow watches. All hail glow watches. ]

[reanbeans]

[ Dear Aidios... ]

Maybe this person is saying that they can't read the text in the hotel from where they are. But there are also demon books in the hotel, so text might be 'text from the demon books in the hotel'.

It sounds also like those left behind with their powers are key to her plan, and the clock is tied into all of this.

[moonfang]

So... something in room 11, and something in the clocktower. Who wants to help me lug some water up there tonight?

[reanbeans]

I don't mind helping.

[ He's going to be out and about nabbing the key from the pool anyway... or well, the pool was emptied so at least he won't have to take a swim. ]

[moonfang]

Let's get it done, then. I'll meet ya at the clocktower... ah, say round 10? Bring buckets.

[reanbeans]

Right.

[ Let's do this...! ]

[deadlygoals]

I can help as well.

And Room 11, huh? Well well, maybe that's the demon book that was missing from the tarot shop.

[moonfang]

I'm checkin' that out as soon as we're done here.

[umbralant]

[ It's your turn to get the very angry marquee, Zan. ]

FIND OUT MORE ABT THIS WRLD AND IF PPL CAN RECOVR FROM 0-STATE. HOW 2 RCOVR SOUL? GAIN SOUL? XCHNGE SOUL? Y DOES THT COW NEED A RNING CLOCK?

[psychophant]

If it is, I'd like to get a look at it.

[Summoning a demon is probably not the same as creating a Faceless, but you never know.]

[deadlygoals]

[ He's honestly probably the best person to look it over anyways ]

By all means... I'll hand it over if we find it there.

[umbralant]

[After a while of you guys discussing what's up with the previous message, this finally pops up.]

Missing books in Twilight. Clock not working in Twilight. Investigate differences. Ancient Night/Day cycle irregular, blues growing faster.

[deadlygoals]

Blue is the shadows... the powers, right? It reminds me of what Dist was saying about the rails underground.

What books? In the library?

[umbralant]

[Doot doot doot more scrolling text.]

Soul mod/restoration important, Rem state important, soul/blues movement between Night/Twi/Day. Powers not gone, buried/mixed with new.
