WEEK 6

WEEK 6


Five weeks. It's been five weeks, and twenty-seven has now dwindled down to eleven. And while only two passed this week, this trial may have been the most devastating in its own way, as threads of patience frayed and fragments of trust fractured. Nevertheless, if The Lady is to be believed, that may very well have been the final set of sacrifices that she was waiting for, so perhaps the end is in sight.

Of course, the fact that everyone is still stuck in Krakow means that it's not over yet, and who even knows what's happening over in the Twilight?

And so, some more changes are in store for this week, even if it may not be the same ones that you've gotten used to. For one thing, the fog stays put and no new areas of the city are revealed under the light of the lampposts. Secondly, The Lady is nowhere to be found in the city, with her bookstore office vacated and abandoned with nary a trace as to where she went. And third, the clock tower will no longer operate, which-- well. Actually that's not new at all, but it certainly may make it difficult to keep up with the facade of passing days. At least the moon still serves as a reminder of that, gibbous phase waxing into something fuller over the course of the week even if the color looks a bit off.

It may not be a fresh new start, but it's not time to give up yet, is it? After all, you are all Survivors.

[[Welcome to Week 6! Note that there are no new locations this week, but feel free to make top levels at your discretion, and remember to note it in your header if you plan on investigating any locations. As alluded above, The Lady will be unavailable, while Rembrandt will still be around on Monday and Tuesday before disappearing for the rest of the week.]]

[ What do you got there Iago?
A gun!

He figured he probably had it with him, but he does scan the gun to make sure the safety was on. ]


I can do that.

Excellent.

[Iago hasn't been lying; he's a quick study and when he dedicates himself to something, he studies it thoroughly. He's already done his reading about guns prior to asking Dazai for help with this, so the demonstration was really the last piece he needed to more or less figure this out.

...Granted, this actually goes perfectly fine until the recoil - his shot's wide, but that's mostly inexperience and the recoil... Thankfully, it does not break his wrist. Iago is allowed one (1) nice thing in this game.]


Well, that's... a bit more than I was expecting.

[So it's not like. The worst. But he's definitely going to need more practice before he can reliably shoot something.]

[ you know there's a really bad joke to be made about building wrist strength and handling guns ]

Fire a couple of more times when you're ready. We are limited on bullets though.

[ Don't get carried away with pew pewing. ]

Start grip training tonight. It might help.

[ Maybe they should make him a wrist brace just in case... ]

[when has iago ever gotten carried away with anything???? never. it's not like he spent seven hours shrieking last trial.]

Of course. Any advice you can give me will be useful.

[we can just handwave the rest of Gun Training With Dazai but this is so dumb.]

[ Not that Dazai can judge because the first time he used a gun, he nearly empty the clip into someone.

It's time for a training montage ]
