Week 6: May 6th - 10th


Sixth Week
Killers and victims, killers and victims. Three of your own have fallen prey to murderous intent last week. Your numbers keep shrinking. Azura has fallen prey to Franciscus in the same night that Olympia betrayed her friend Millium and killed Cian who wound up in the crossfire. At this rate, is there anyone you can trust?

The townspeople's anger burns hotter than ever. Wherever they go, must they live in fear of stumbling on a corpse? They can't live like this. More than ever, the visitors are being shown that they are unwelcome.

Walking outdoors, cold looks are the norm. Shouted profanity isn't unexpected. Barely anybody is willing to still hold a conversation with any visitors.

Even within the motel, there is no feeling of safety any longer. Not only have two people died in this very place, no, now the townspeople also lost their fear of coming inside. While they don't enter private rooms, the daring among them vent their hatred of you by vandalizing the common rooms.

Cartesio has become a menacing place.

In the lobby of the motel there's a few more brochures, and the maps have been updated once again. Don't mind that some of them have been damaged in one of the attacks on the motel.

...Yeah, but he couldn't see what they said to us himself. The only things he knew about them were things we mentioned ourselves.

I wonder why...

But, um. The two of you are okay, right?

[She glances towards Keith, nodding.]

Yep. Not a scratch on us.

[personal profile] clearities 2018-11-05 03:02 am (UTC)(link)
I'm glad.

[ Relieved, even. ]

Do you think that the wind you guys felt... was some kind of magic?

[ Sakura is familiar with that sort of magic, actually, so. ]

...I don't think so, but I'm not familiar enough with magic to be able to tell.

[personal profile] clearities 2018-11-05 03:44 am (UTC)(link)
If you decide to go next time... take me with you. If it is magic, I might be able to do something about it.

[ "Might" being the key word here, but she does genuinely want to help. ]

...Nobody should go a second time unless we have more leverage. He'll be expecting it now. It'll be harder, and more dangerous.

[personal profile] clearities 2018-11-05 03:51 am (UTC)(link)
Mm... we probably need a really good plan, too.

[personal profile] robitussin 2018-11-05 05:00 am (UTC)(link)
We need more than a really good plan. We had a really good plan this time, and it didn't make a difference.

[personal profile] clearities 2018-11-05 05:07 am (UTC)(link)
... What else would we need?

[She pauses for a moment, then shakes her head.]

...If you're thinking about trying it, don't.

[personal profile] clearities 2018-11-05 06:00 am (UTC)(link)
I'm not going to! I would never do anything like that on my own--!!
robitussin: (pic#12475593)

[personal profile] robitussin 2018-11-05 06:01 am (UTC)(link)
Or with anyone else, right?

[personal profile] clearities 2018-11-05 03:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Only... if we all talk about it first. And work together.

[ So obviously not alone, but she also doesn't want to be left out, either. ]
robitussin: (pic#12531898)

[personal profile] robitussin 2018-11-06 03:03 am (UTC)(link)
...If you make a plan like that with anyone else, will you tell me first?

[personal profile] clearities 2018-11-06 05:06 am (UTC)(link)
[ Sakura nods, a soft smile playing on her features. ]

Mmhm. I will. Promise.

[While the smile might not be returned, there's gratitude in her expression nonetheless.]

Thanks, kid.
