WEEK 1.

[trustwellness]

WEEK 1 Now that you've had a chance to yell at the Wordsmith, one thing is very clear. He wasn't lying. There's no escape from this place. You can explore all you like, but there aren't any ways to leave. It seems like there isn't much to do but settle in and get to know your fellow Apprentices. You're free to go wherever you'd like for the most part, but come 10PM the doors to the kitchen and the mail room will shut and lock and nothing you can do will get them to open. While you might be tempted to sleep in, you'll find that the clock in the foyer goes off every morning at 7AM and again in the evenings at 10PM without fail. You'll be able to hear it no matter where you are; it seems it's being broadcast over the PA system. You're welcome to go back to sleep after you hear it, but surely you don't want to spend the whole day in bed? (Unless you were out exploring all last night. In which case, go back to bed, damn.) APPRENTICES REMAINING: 30

MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY

[right. she's a cool ghoul]

Did you eat the offerings people left you?

[oyashiromama]

[nod] It's the only time I could experience anything like it, so naturally I took advantage. [...before offerings became less food-friendly and more- never mind-]

It's how I got a taste for sweets.

[uncouthhatcher]

Not a bad taste to have, though I'm more of a spicy man myself! Silver's the one who's really into sweets, so I'm probably gonna be makin' extra to bring back to our room for him.

[Because he is the best friend who knows what Silver likes. And needs.]

Do you remember the kinds of foods you used to eat? When you were still a demon, I mean.

[oyashiromama]

What a good friend you are...

[...and she's not going to press that even though look they have all seen the way those two interact-]

What I ate actually was rather normal for humans of the time. Rice, fish, miso, beans, tofu, sometimes rarer meats, whatever vegetables could be grown at the time. Particularly steamed raddish. ...It's funny, I remember clearer now than I have in decades. Maybe being solid has something to do with it.

[uncouthhatcher]

[They're close as close can be!]

How about I make you some of that too then, huh? That's the kinda stuff I'm used to eatin' myself anyway, so it'll be nice to get some home cookin' done! I'll give you a taste of Johto.

[oyashiromama]

[Oh this sweet rambunctious kid-]

Aah, au, you don't have to! I mean- only if it wouldn't be any trouble, I would love to try your home's food!

[Isn't this doing too much for her though??]

[uncouthhatcher]

No trouble at all! Don't worry about it, alright? You're finally solid again, so what's the harm in indulgin' in what you used to eat all the time, yeah?

[This is doing the right amount for him, but he's also very... himself, so.]

[oyashiromama]

...Later, I will make you something I remember how to cook as well, alright? As a thank you. I won't take no for an answer.

[uncouthhatcher]

[Aww. Gold grins widely, pleased to be given a special privilege like this.]

You got it, ma'am! You won't be hearin' me complain any, especially not about food from a cute god like yourself.

[oyashiromama]

Aah- au! [...she can't help it, she was called cute, it's just as much a noise of embarrassment as it is flattery] You're a kind boy, that's for sure. The kind I wouldn't mind having back in my village.

[by the way how are those cream puffs going gold]
