Week 3.

[trustharder]

WEEK 3 Another week has passed; two more Survivors are gone. Pearl and Caren both had someone to fight for, someone worth killing for; perhaps it's for the best to hope that somehow they've found peace despite not being able to collect on the Kingmaker's incentive. Saturday is given to regrouping and sleep; there aren't any bodies to be found on Sunday morning. That doesn't mean the night passed easily, though - it seems another piece of your personal puzzle may have fallen into place while you slept... Following that spiral staircase up to the second floor will reveal something strange; those stairs definitely lead far higher than you remember, up to a previously inaccessible third floor. Go ahead and explore as much as you like; consider it your reward for a job well done. SURVIVORS REMAINING: 23

SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY

[Alright, with more things dealt with its time for Bruce to actually... say something for once!! GASP...]

Miss Misa made this suggestion to me after--well, what happened, especially in the last two weeks, and I'd like to ask for everyone's opinions on it first.

Essentially, in addition to Mister Tarrlok's night patrol, an additional curfew would be imposed on ourselves along with the Kingmaker's nighttime alarm. This curfew just makes it that everyone who isn't involved with the night patrol that night should stay in their own rooms until nighttime is over. In this manner, it would add another layer of security to prevent incidents from occurring.

I don't wish to enforce this on everyone, but it would be rather beneficial, so I'd like to first get everyone's opinion on the matter.

[sleepingkogoro]

That is a very good idea, I'd say! There's really no reason to be wandering around at night, either way.

[amygdalae]

That much is true, but I wouldn't like for us to restrict each other so much either.

[Especially since Bruce himself can understand the need to just... get around.]

Of course, if somebody does want to stay up my own suggestion would be to be with the night patrols - at least in that way there is safety, plus a solid alibi should anything occur.

[ratingspoint]

...That would give someone a convenient way to murder the night patrol with absolutely no witnesses around, wouldn't it?

[and that's kind of one of those "just look at what that thought says about you" questions, but you know what, there we go.]

[amygdalae]

[Well. Mettaton's not wrong, honestly.]

I can't say I didn't think about that. But to be honest, nothing is going to be entirely one hundred percent foolproof.

[They just have to... well, trust.]

[happysweets]

A-ah! Misa-Misa didn't think about that possibility! So, um...having both a night patrol and a curfew kind of clashes, doesn't it?

[bloodisthicker]

...I'm quite certain that the night patrol is competent enough to ensure that literally all of them don't get killed in one night.

[isafraid]

If we're in need of some extra protection, [which they were.] a curfew would do some good.

...Hopefully it would do some good, though there's no saying how many people will follow it.

[amygdalae]

I'm inclined to leave it open ended, but I know that does defeat the point.

[Which is why he wanted everyone's thoughts on this.]

If we do want to do this, it has to be something all of us can agree on.

[isafraid]

In any case, the agreeing part won't be the most difficult.

[He knows, Bruce. He knows.]

...It's whether any amount of us would really follow it in the long run.

[amygdalae]

[...yeah, there is that, too.]

I agree. There's no point trying to make it work if people don't want to follow through.

[bloodisthicker]

I was actually thinking of proposing this myself, but I do accept that it'll be very difficult to enforce unless, well, the night patrol enforces it.

[...and they're down one. uh.]

[amygdalae]

[Oh, yeah.]

I'll be the first to admit that it's probably not the most feasible suggestion.

[bloodisthicker]

At the very least, I do think the suggestion of a curfew might help keep people in their beds when and where they should be, so if nothing else, there's that.

[amygdalae]

I doubt enforcing it will ever be feasible, but at least it is something that can be kept in mind.

[Or... well, something like that, anyway.]

[psychoh]

Uh...

[his nervousness about going against the grain vs the idea of spending his sleepless nights in his room, alone with his thoughts.

VICTORY TO FEAR OF SELF-REFLECTION]

I don't, uh, really think it's all that necessary. We're all adults here, right? We can, um... handle ourselves, probably.

[amygdalae]

[You know Norman, they're more or less surrounded by ROOMS OF DEAD PEOPLE NOW... it generally doesn't help.]

I certainly don't want to impose this either if people are against it. If we want to do it, it has to be agreed by everyone.

[psychoh]

I don't wanna, um... I don't want to be a bother to anyone, but I'd, uh, really prefer it not b-being a hard and fast rule. Just a little leeway.

[amygdalae]

I doubt it can ever be a hard and fast rule-- [considering, well, Mettaton, among others. (including himself.)] --but just as something to keep in mind.

[neverafters]

The King doesn't want to be out in the dark anyway... [ As some of the poor folk he's pestered to accompany him to the bathroom would know. ] The King has no problem with curfew.

[amygdalae]

[A nod.]

We are in the same room - and I'll be in the night patrol either way, so I can always be with you when you need it.

[...did others know they were in the same room? No? WELL NOW THEY KNOW.]

[captainobnoxious]

[........]

Well, you do you, doc. Whatever floats your boat.

[wokeupdead]

Having more help on patrol would really make things easier. I don't know how easy it would be to enforce a curfew though. What would we do if we found someone breaking it?

[It's not like they can lock them up. It's not even a bad enough offense for locking up.]

[amygdalae]

I don't think we should enforce any punishment - I suppose its more of a safeguard than anything, to keep each other more easily informed.

[wokeupdead]

Like, if we catch you going out at night a bunch then if anything happens it's your own fault if you look suspicious? I guess that could work.
