WEEK 4.

[trustwellness]

WEEK 4 Three more have died this past week. Milla Maxwell was killed for breaking a rule, Chiyuki was murdered, and you all had a hand in executing Yoshikage Kira. It seems like this isn't going to stop any time soon. How many more will join them this week? 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... Despite the Wordsmith's reaction to the last trial, it seems as though you've been rewarded once again for a job that was...well, it was done, even if he didn't explicitly say it was well-done. Another door has opened in that stairway, it seems, leading you further down into the building; once again, there are more rooms down there, more things to occupy yourselves with. Or perhaps just more means to get creative with regards to how you take initiative with your fellow Apprentices. APPRENTICES REMAINING: 23 APPRENTICES REMAINING: 22 APPRENTICES REMAINING: 20

SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY

...It's just called...Beware?

[...this joke does not work in japanese but you know fucking what-]

[elepe]

We'll have to make sure to find one, then. Her religion deserves no less than the best method of keeping it organized.

[oyashiromama]

Thank you, Lusamine. This...this would mean a lot to her.

[elepe]

Of course, Ms. Furude. It's the least I can do, and I have always been interested in otherworldly things...

[acherontiastyx]

...

[hmmnnnnnghhh...]

...I kind of... punched the punching bag too many times...

[acherontiastyx]

Well, yeah. You've gotta be stylin' 24/7. Otherwise I'd think you'd just gotten sick or lost a bet or something.

[acherontiastyx]

Well, I mean, if you kick a rock and it accidentally kills the Pokemon that's gonna have the DNA mutation that's gonna lead to humans, that means you've destroyed humanity. Or something.

[elepe]

...Really, Guzma, you could not have waited until tomorrow?

[What is she gonna do with him...]

That's going to get infected if you continue with that. Do you have any sense of self preservation?

[elepe]

I can't let my reputation get tarnished. The Wordsmith can take many things, but my style will not be one of them.

[She says that with a smirk.]

[tsugomori]

...Well, I...

[ Mikazuki is trying not to laugh because time travel is serious business, but he'll give an inelegant snort and then raise his hands to cover his mouth with a sheepish expression. ]

...Hahaha, ah, excuse me. But, I suppose you do have a point.

I think some of my friends back home may find what you said to be just a bit amusing, though.

[acherontiastyx]

...aw, man, don't tell me your friends are all wrapped up in weird time garbage.

[tsugomori]

Well, yes, you could say that...

[ Mikazuki's voice is quieter here, but . . . ]

I'm quite used to fighting against an enemy who is trying to change history.

[acherontiastyx]

I'm still gonna take it as one regardless, you know.

[oyashiromama]

Of course you will. Auu... I had no idea...you did something so dubious...!

[...it doesn't sound like she completely condemns it? no not at all, just that she's worried!]

[acherontiastyx]

...you're not yanking my chain?

[...]

Nah, probably not. Dang. That's some heavy stuff.

[acherontiastyx]

Yeah. Because you want to beware of it.

[oyashiromama]

But that's...so on-the-nose.

[tsugomori]

No, I'm not.

...Yes, well, my friends and I back home tried to make the best of it. Kind of like how we are trying to make the best of this situation now, except here there isn't as much as a lull, and it seems the Wordsmith is more of a threat somehow than the History Revisionists.

[acherontiastyx]

Well, I guess rewriting history is gonna affect way more people in the long run, but the Wordsmith is all up in our faces right now. So. You know.

[acherontiastyx]

Well, it kinda has to be? They're actually really kinda fluffy and friendly, so you might think there's nothing wrong with one hugging you.

However, they're extremely strong and don't know the definition of restraint, so if they hug you there's a nonzero chance they'll break your spine.

[acherontiastyx]

I'm really surprised you couldn't tell, Hanyuu. It's like, written all over me.

[acherontiastyx]

Hey, I've got bandages and cream on. That should be fine, right.

[elepe]

Fine until germs start to fester in the bandages. If you're going to wear them, you'll need to reapply the cream often, and then the bandages to ensure that.

[Lusamine shakes her head.]

Really, are you going to be so stubborn?

[oyashiromama]

...They remind me of a girl I know...from that description... [...] She would certainly find them the most adowable things.

[oyashiromama]

You've a rambunctious side, but- ...haa, you do remind me of a girl I know, back at home. She's part of the village yakuza.
