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

[OOC: Welcome to week four of Trustfell! Feel free to make as many top levels as you'd like and tag out to other characters! This post is for all of your interactions this week... at least until the weekend. Don't forget to save those threads for coins and the activity check!

If you'd like to get in contact with the Wordsmith, you can do so through letters or the switchboard!]

[ He doesn't seem to have an opinion of the women, looking more intensely at the second page with the numerous portraits.]

This book is about you?

[oyashiromama]

I only wish I could do more for you. You've such a good heart, Sportacus.

[matchbreaker]

Yeah, I noticed!

[ HOLY SHIT ]

[deofoled]

[ ]

Don't mention it.

[deofoled]

[ Taking it off and.........blinking several times as it goes back to being straight.]

You can have it.

[sportadork]

Don't worry. I'll be fine. [he says, you know, like a liar.] We just have to work even harder now. We will get out of here and arrest him, just like she wanted.

[oyashiromama]

[Don't you fret, Gold, Hanyuu can regret enough for the both of them! She. Can't really read it all, really, skimming and getting to...about Alani, her rage...

Well, Hanyuu pushes it back to Gold before she crumples or rips the paper in her hands.]

...Society can be cruel, no matter the world. [Tight-lipped, she...sighs and closes her eyes for a moment, trying to get something straight in her head, but that doesn't last long.] I've no doubt...this is what she wanted to undo.

She...told me...something happened, but she didn't remember what, that Sunday. Just that she was in the galactic war, and someone expressed condolences.

[matchbreaker]

Oh, really? I will, then!

[ A beat. ]

You find anything you do like?

[ As she idly plays with the little schwooper some more ]

[deofoled]

Yeah, that's why the incentive this week is so dangerous.

[...why his mood is why it is.]

[deofoled]

A trident. [ That one he made sure not to leave hanging around though, it's safely in his room.

But he'll look at the pile of remaining items here, the feather pen catching his eye.]

...I don't think this is a bird feather.

[matchbreaker]

Oh yeah, what is it?

[ She'll just leave the thing on her wrist, scooting past to look over at this feather.

... It would be a pretty big bird, admittedly. ]

[deofoled]

...

I didn't think I had ever seen one but-- an angel feather.

[ Gee thanks, wordsmith. He has no way of knowing for sure, it's just a feeling albeit one he can't shake.]

[matchbreaker]

Holy smokes -a real one? Are you sure?

[ She...

she tries to hold back seeming more surprised than she is. But she is. Surprised. A lot. ]

[deofoled]

I can't know for sure, the only one who would know is dead.

[ Well he's not gonna call her out on it because he's suddenly bitter and somber.]

[matchbreaker]

[ Huh...? Which one? She sort of does a mental count- ]

Which one? The first dead girl? Or --- your friend?

[ . . . You know, probably his friend. ]

[oyashiromama]

[...Oh, Aibo, bless you? The novelty of having her hair braided in the doorway of a university dorm by a four foot something moneky with two hand tails is- ...well it doesn't haven't every day, so Hanyuu's a little taken aback.]

A vacation... Yes, I think everyone will need one after this. That's so nice of her to offer.

[oyashiromama]

They seem nice. Pokémon. [She...pets his head? This is a new experience.] Good companions.

[oyashiromama]

[someone should really teach them about financing??]

O-oh...! So this is what the rest of your association wears. ...I-I don't think I've asked...what you do?

[is it time to come clean to GOD]

[oyashiromama]

I'm not giving in and you can't make me.

[Siiiip.]

[oyashiromama]

...I was of a different assumption, but that...that was foolish of me. I won't ask more, if it brings up uncomfortable memories.

[oyashiromama]

...How did you escape with your life? Especially...if you had that thing you used on you? [The syringe.] Was that here?

[oyashiromama]

[Hanyuu doesn't have the heart to tell him she doesn't believe arresting the Wordsmith is anywhere in the cards.]

Can you stand? [She'll offer him some help up, either way.]

[matchbreaker]

Come now, it'd be fun!

[ Hahahaha.... But fine, she'll just clank down the bottle n the counter and get on the stool next to her. ]

Hanyuu, I simply must tell you about my memory earlier this week.

[ Which she knows is abrupt, but. ]

[tsugomori]

That's alright. Once you reach a certain age, you can be quite forgetful~

[ He'll easily pass the man beside him another smile, as he takes the hand that had reached out to him easily. He resists the temptation to just lean against his shoulder instead, though. ]

I should know. But there's something I have been thinking of talking to you about...for example, sleeping arrangements?

[tsugomori]

Good, good, then I get to introduce you to something new and delicious!

[ And he's glad to have that chance. ]
