WEEK 3.

[trustwellness]

WEEK 3 As the second week draws to a close, two more have joined the deceased. Christo and Alani are dead, leaving twenty-six of you remaining. It may not seem like very many have died, but their absence will certainly be felt. Saturday is given to regrouping and rest; on Sunday morning the clock chimes as it always has, but at least there are no bodies to find today. It seems you're safe for now. The night before wasn't necessarily a peaceful one, however; you'll probably feel a bit groggy when you wake up, and it seems you've regained something that you didn't realize you'd lost... Just like last week, a door in the stairwell has opened, leading you down further into the building; there are more rooms open to you down there - possibly even one that you'll find personally interesting. Go ahead and explore all you like; after all, you did well at completing your lessons this past week. APPRENTICES REMAINING: 26 APPRENTICES REMAINING: 25

SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY

[Last week was possibly one of the worst week's Judy has had in recent memory, and that's saying a lot given how awful her first day on the job had been. At some point early in the week, she'd either...caught something or had eaten something gone way bad, because her fuzzy tail had been parked firmly in her bedroom with her laying half dead on her bed for the duration of the weekend. She hadn't been able to investigate, she barely dragged herself to the trial...and now she's had a dream that's made everything 100 times worse.

Predators going savage? Sure, she supposedly solved every single missing mammal case, but had also single handedly turned all of the prey and predatory animals in Zootopia against each other with a nerve-addled press conference that couldn't have gone worse. And then...Nick. Nick. She still has no idea what that was about, but their exchange had left her feeling sick to her stomach to the point where she was worried maybe she wasn't as well as she thought she was.

At this point, Judy doesn't know what to believe. Because according to that dream...she and Nick were almost partners. And then she ruined it. Add that to how much she dropped the ball, leading to yet another murder and trial...Judy Hopps isn't her spry, energetic self today, and it shows. Those are some droopy ears if there ever were any.

Anyone looking for Judy will find her actually venturing out of her room Sunday, albeit very slowly. First stop is the kitchen to try to get some food and water in her that she's fairly confident will stay down this time. Maybe she'll try to make some soup or something...

Later, she thinks she'll try to explore the new rooms a bit more thoroughly tomorrow, instead relocating to the library for some quiet and to try and sort herself out. She's got a notebook that Chiyuki gave her, slowly writing down things as she sinks back into her chair.]

kitchen

[introspects]

[ Orihime's only here to get a glass of water, but she sees Judy meandering on in. She hadn't seen her in a while, and she remembers Judy looking really ill at the trial. Poor thing... She at least wants to check up on her. ]

Hi, Judy-chan, how are you feeling?

[officerhops]

[Orihime came in just in time to see Judy let out a sigh at remembering she's got to climb up onto the counter if she wants anything...maybe she'll just look in the fridge and see what's there that she doesn't have to actually cook.

She looks up when she hears a voice, forcing a small smile when she sees who it is.]

Good morning, Orihime. I'm a lot better than I was. Just another day or two, tops, and I'll be right as rain.

[Judy's ears lift just a little as she heads for the fridge, one paw resting on the door.]

I guess I must have just caught a bug or something, you know?

[introspects]

I'm glad to hear it. ...Not that you caught a bug, but you know...

[ She's lacking her usual vigor, but she's at least giving Judy a genuine smile. She's glad to see that she's alright.

It seems like Judy wants to get into the fridge; Orihime will do the honors of opening the door for her. ]

Can I get anything for you? Make you anything?

kitchen

[feistytrader]

[Judy wasn't around much last week, and when she did show up at the trial, she looked a little worse for wear. So today, when he sees her in the kitchen... Well, Weavile curiously looks her over and waves hello, but mostly sticks to Silver's side. As for Silver-]

...Are you doing alright? I can make you something, if you want.

[officerhops]

[Given the circumstances, Judy's only been able to see the Pokemon running around in passing. Seeing Weavile up close like this is actually a little surprising, and her automatic response to him is to wave back slightly. Then, she turns to Silver.]

Oh, I couldn't ask you to do that...I'm feeling better today, at least. I just need to try to get out of my room more.

I almost hope I just ate something bad and didn't catch a virus...I don't want anyone else getting sick.

[feistytrader]

If it makes you feel any better, I don't think I've seen anyone else get sick.

[Congratulations Judy, you didn't spread the plague!]

kitchen

[acherontiastyx]

[Breakfast, breakfast...

...

man you know he totally lost track of the Poke --- animal people last week and it is really fuckin' weird to see one when you kind of forgot about them.]

Oh. ...what the heck happened to you.

[officerhops]

[HEY THERE GUZMA...

Judy looks up as Guzma walks in, already nursing what looks to be just a plain glass of ice water.]

I've been, uh...pretty sick. But I'm getting better? Sort of...

[acherontiastyx]

[...help cop? cannot help cop. it's against the prime directive.

...MAYBE IF HE DOES IT... INDIRECTLY...]

...you ever try, like. Saltine crackers and clear soda.

library

[ravagers]

[ Vanille's begun to understand the appeal and comfort of books, so... here she is, in the library, with a book of fairy tales in her lap. She's so engrossed in them that she hardly notices Judy come in. When she does, though... ]

Hi, Judy. How are you feeling?

[officerhops]

[Oh Vanille...Judy looks up, not having expected to have company, and marks off what she was writing so she doesn't lose her place.]

I'm feeling a lot better. Actually woke up before the clock this morning, imagine that.

Sorry I haven't really been around a whole lot. That's going to change.

[ravagers]

Aw, I'm glad to hear it.

[ She shakes her head, marking her place with a piece of paper. ]

That's alright. You weren't feeling well--I'm just glad you're back in tip-top shape. What're you writing?

library

[foundfate]

[Watanuki is mostly busy upstairs, but by evening he does make it down to the library for a bit. At first he's surprised to see Judy out and about, after she had been hidden away for all of last week. But seeing her droopy like that, that made him worry.]

Hey, Judy?

[officerhops]

Oh! Kimihiro. Good morning.

[Judy lowers her notebook a little, those droopy ears perking just slightly. She sounds a bit hoarse, but otherwise a lot better than she had been.]

Do you need something?

[foundfate]

Not really, I'm just surprised to see you out and about. You still sound like you're sick.

[He's gonna be a little fussy now, rather than pissy like he's been all day.]

library

[iaspis]

[It's been a while since Jasper has seen Judy-- an entire week without the little officer's presence was noticed, though the Quartz isn't the sort to seek out people under normal circumstances.

It's why she's grateful to see Judy again, because at least it means she doesn't have to confront something as awkward as feelings.]

Are you all right?

[officerhops]

[It's probably fine, having emotions about a rabbit isn't at all like having them for humans, right...]

I'm doing better, that's for sure. I hope you've been holding down the fort okay in the meantime.

[iaspis]

[...To be fair, organic beings are organic beings. She doesn't really distinguish.]

Not as well I would like.

[You know, with another murder and all.]

kitchen

[quadruples]

How are you feeling, Judy?

[ Viktor's here to get something to eat, but he's... feeling a little indecisive today and he can't decide what kind of food he's in the mood for. ]

[officerhops]

A lot better, thank you Viktor. Are you doing okay?

[She still feels bad for not being able to check up on people...but especially certain people.]

Kitchen

[elepe]

[Lusamine was actually just about to go into the kitchen to make some food for her Pokemon and--oh god thank goodness she didn't let them out, don't mind the audible gasp for a moment.]

Judy. Are you alright? Did something happen to you?

[CONCERNED MOTHER HENNING INTENSIFIES

Look even if she did see her at the trial she was worried gosh darn it, she's not making a move to walk closer yet but if Judy were not a people she would probably be just. All over.]

[officerhops]

Mm?

[Judy turns on the ball of her foot at the sound of the voice, her nose twitching until she sees Lusamine standing there. She looks...so concerned.]

Oh, I'm okay now...but I've been pretty sick this past week. I think I just probably caught something, it's no big deal.

library

[oyashiromama]

[It's looking through the library time again, but Hanyuu can't help but gravitate towards Judy once she sees her. ...Likely, she's in there for a few minutes before seeing her, Hanyuu is surprisingly distracted today.]

It's good to see you up and about again, Judy. Did rest help?

[officerhops]

Oh, Hanyuu! It helped a lot, thank you.

[Though Judy is obviously Not Happy right now, she seems to brighten in the presence of her friend. She closes her notebook for the time being.]

I was hoping it was just a 24-hour thing, but...you know how that goes.
