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

[STOPS SUDDENLY DOES HE NEED TO CATCH HER HAS SHE COLLAPSED IN GRIEF oh wait this is a good thing. this is happy almost-falling.]

That's wonderful! What's she like?

[matchbreaker]

She looks so much like me, she's a real chip off the old block! Ooooh, she's so beautiful!

[ H u h u hu ]

[sportadork]

I'm sure she is!

What's her name?

[matchbreaker]

Karin! Her folks are going with a naming theme to make all the kids have more Japanese names I think. To fit in.

[sportadork]

That's a very nice name! [huh] I didn't know you lived in Japan. Is that where everyone went?

[matchbreaker]

[ She nods ] It's about the furthest place anyone knew of from Europe that we could go, way at the other end of the Orient.

[ #oldwhitepeople ]

[sportadork]

[casually racist vampires]

Is it safer there? I don't know much about it.

[matchbreaker]

Well, it's not like it never had its wars, the first hundred years or so after we showed up were a big period of change for the humans there and there were a lot of bombs dropped a couple decades ago that did cause some families a few problems. But the big benefit is that it was well outside of the Inquisition or the church's reach.

[sportadork]

[bombs... a few problems.......]

... Well, here we are! [let him just. unlock his door. rather than think about bombs.]

[matchbreaker]

[ That firebombing in Tokyo was some serious shit okay. Not to mention...

Oh, here we are! ]

Oh, good, about time!

[sportadork]

[okay so into the room we go! the trunk is already open, and. it's mainly bullets. like, a lot of them. and he just walks up to it and starts emptying his pockets into it.]

[matchbreaker]

[ . . .

. . .

Well she'll drop the handful and a half in, but like- ]

Aren't these things explosive?

[ Or is that not a thing anymore ]

[sportadork]

[shakes head] Without something to fire them with, they're very harmless! Unless someone lights this place on fire, we should be fine.

[matchbreaker]

Well that's what I meant! Like if someone threw a match in there, would your room blow up?

[sportadork]

... [wait shit would it...]

It would have to get a bit more out of control than that. [he's like 56% sure now]

[matchbreaker]

[ Elda's thinking muskets and gunpowder right now tbh. ]

... Well, as long as you're sure!

[sportadork]

... It won't matter, anyway, as long as everyone else is safe!

[45% sure he won't die in a horrible fiery explosion but also fine with it]

[matchbreaker]

[ She almost says "not if you die" but then stops herself and hates herself for thinking it.

...

So she groans, turns on her heel, and starts to head for the door, presumably to go back downstairs. but if he's still doing the bullet thing, then he will be too, so... ]

[sportadork]

[they are bffs why would he not follow]

How old is your granddaughter? I wonder if she and Stephanie would be friends...

[matchbreaker]

Sixteen. [ She hesitates... no, yeah, sixteen, probably.

Nods. ]

[sportadork]

Sixteen... [considers...] Stephanie is only ten, but she's very mature for her age! It would be wonderful if they could meet someday.

[matchbreaker]

Oh please! My Karin might be a particularly late bloomer, but she is still a vampire. I'm sure any kids you're watching over are rays of sunshine, that can't be good for either of them.

[sportadork]

They'd just have to stay up a little later to play, that's all! [took that entirely literally]

[matchbreaker]

Come on, if you're... you know. You have to know it's two different worlds.

[sportadork]

That's never stood in the way of friendship before. I don't see why it'd start now.
