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

[She breathes a sigh of relief.]

I'm glad. ...Now... Have you always lived here? In these walls?

[oyashiromama]

[Hanyuu had been lingering around the dojo. It's not hard to hear someone crying, from that far awake. It's...a surprise to see just who it is.

In her shrine maiden outfit, sans the sleeves, she immediately approaches him, kneeling down.]

Sportacus... Sportacus, come here.

[alchemicals]

[...]

I'm still not too sure what I think about that whole thing. Jasper and Sportacus kind of talked me down from a lot of the stuff I was saying during the trial, but...I don't know.

[trustwellness]

[NO.]

[oyashiromama]

[A small grateful look, you're a good son, Silver]

[sportadork]

[okay so going from wrecked to normal in less than fifteen seconds is impossible even for his superheroic recovery skills so when he looks up at her he just kinda looks like a gross mess.]

Hanyuu... [he'd do what she asked but for literally the first time ever in his life, he just doesn't wanna move.]

[uncouthhatcher]

[Oh.

Gold looks away at that, embarrassment burning his cheeks, and he'll play with the interview papers.]

... I don't get why it's important to her, [not a bit, she seemed to talk well enough even if she didn't say anything,] but I get it. Both Chavvot and her way of speakin' and Jimmy's feelings.

[quadruples]

What's it about? The title makes it sound like a knockoff of 'Beauty and the Beast'.

[oyashiromama]

In what way? [...] You said a lot, during all of that, so...I don't want to assume.

[matchbreaker]

[ . . .

ELDA LEAVES.

She returns less than a minute later with pen and paper and makes to sit next to Gold, starting off on sketching something ]

[oyashiromama]

Did you arrive here with the Wordsmith?

[matchbreaker]

He's been stonewalling me just for asking for little things like bats or blood worth anything.

[ HUFF.

... Clearly those aren't unreasonable. ]

I'll try though, seems worth it.

[matchbreaker]

I guess I'm just a likable gal and he wants to impress me!

[ WA HA HA HA ]

[trustwellness]

[That gets neither a yes nor a no; just an utter nonanswer in the form of refusing to interact with the paper altogether.]

[oyashiromama]

[Then she will go to him. Kneeling, but still tall enough so she's above him, a hand reached out to his head.]

You have been so strong...but it is okay for you to cry.

[uncouthhatcher]

[... Oh, wow.]

So he really stuck, huh? [coach dating coachee is fine with him] What's so special about him?

[matchbreaker]

[ . . . ]

So this chart is actually about rooms, not events?

[ Or ... man, she still isn't sure she gets it. - actually ] What's tase?

[matchbreaker]

[ Like the strongest black tea you've ever had in your life

... Elda looks expectant ]

[oyashiromama]

Yes, I think I do too. ...It's hard, when you can't talk like everyone else, but...it's also rewarding.

[oyashiromama]

[Alright, that's fine.]

Excuse me. Aah... ...Did you know the Wordsmith before all this?

[matchbreaker]

[ She leaps back a half-step, dropping the paper in the process. Oops?

But she waves dismissively! ]

Oh come on, I'm a vampire! It's what we do!

[matchbreaker]

[ . . . As she said, she won't ask.

But Clementine Elda will remember this ]

[oyashiromama]

[rip hanyuu it's too bitter-]

Th-th- the Tea of Mourning-

[i mean-]

I-i-if you like bitter tea, it's wonderful.

[save her]

[matchbreaker]

[ . . . that's a good point. ]

So you put the reply in the message box?

[matchbreaker]

Well, it could be now.

[ SHE SMIRKS AS SHE TURNS-

And ends up slapping it against her wrist. She jumps as it clicks around it like a watch or something.

Whoa what?! ]
