Week 3

Week 3
Sunday - Thursday


The beginning of the third week starts like the rest, even with the loss of three of your fellow warriors: Chiaki, Hei, and Senhime. Despite your best hopes, it doesn't seem like the trend of murders is going to change: though at least there is some relief to be had from the trial's somewhat unexpected conclusion. The mood in the group is undoubtedly different, but perhaps this experience has made you all stronger— at least one could hope.

In the end, what else can you do but move on?

Like last week, it seems another pattern has established itself: with new areas of the castle for you to explore. Who knows, maybe this week you'll discover something else worthwhile in its depths. Or you can simply focus on surviving— after the past week, surely no one can blame you. Whatever choices you make this week are ultimately yours and yours alone, for better or for worse.


SURVIVING WARRIORS: 25 23



SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY

Hmm, so you're going to need a way to hold some thread on there. Maybe stick some pins in the ends?
divertimento: (48)

[personal profile] divertimento 2017-08-14 03:17 am (UTC)(link)
Huh... that might work, although I'm not sure if I could get a pin through without jabbing myself with it.
notimmortal: (009)

[personal profile] notimmortal 2017-08-14 03:52 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, and I haven't seen a hammer around. Might be able to find a rock that would work.
divertimento: (49)

[He considers this for a second, but then imagines himself smacking himself directly in the hand with a rock. That'd be his luck.]

...I think I'll just see what I can do with bending this and tying string to it directly, first.
notimmortal: (006)

[personal profile] notimmortal 2017-08-15 02:59 am (UTC)(link)
I got another idea though. Could try cutting notches into the end to hold the string.

[And watch one of them cut their finger open if they try.]
divertimento: (34)

[personal profile] divertimento 2017-08-15 03:04 am (UTC)(link)
...Huh. That might work.

[He apparently does not recognize this inherent danger. Time for the player to make her character also suffer the consequences of hurt fingers - okay, no, he probably knows how to use a knife.]

Anything in here I could go at this with, or should I go grab a knife outta the kitchen, you think?

[What, you think Jansen didn't already steal a kitchen knife and has it on him at all times even though he's clueless about using one for anything besides cooking and that you stab the pointy end into attacker? He's a magic user after all.

So yeah, he pulls a knife that looks very suspiciously like a kitchen knife But hey, it's at least safely tucked away into those robes.]


No need, I already got one on me.

[Elliot stares for a second, but then considers this and decides it's probably not the worst idea, honestly. If he wasn't completely sure he'd be completely useless with it, he might just go steal one, too.]

Oh, uh. That's useful. Mind if I borrow that?
notimmortal: (011)

[personal profile] notimmortal 2017-08-15 02:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Borrow away. Just um, don't mention this to others. I'd rather keep its usage to stuff like this.
divertimento: (36)

[personal profile] divertimento 2017-08-15 03:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Fine by me. Secret-keeping buddies!

[He grins at Jansen before taking the knife and beginning to saw at the twig. And here he yelled at Tiki for knife safety...]
notimmortal: (030)

[personal profile] notimmortal 2017-08-16 03:08 am (UTC)(link)
[Jansen grins as well and will just keep an eye on Elliot in case the boy looks like he's going to slice a finger open or needs someone to hold the twig or something.]
divertimento: (3)

[personal profile] divertimento 2017-08-16 04:52 pm (UTC)(link)
[Saw saw saw saw - okay, that's probably enough of a notch to at least try.

And no bloodshed! Truly, this is a miracle.

He sets down the knife and starts trying to attach the string.]


Y'know, even if I get this to work, I still don't know how I'm gonna play this thing. It's just so tiny. I honestly don't get it.
notimmortal: (003)

[personal profile] notimmortal 2017-08-19 04:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Guess we'll just have to see what can be done with it.

[Yeah, someone really doesn't get the joke about a tiny violin here.]
divertimento: (48)

[Even if that is an expression where Elliot's from, he's not going to pick up on it because it's honestly funnier having him just be utterly confused by it.

After some fumbling, Elliot manages to kind of assemble something that kind of, sort of looks like a bow. He pulls a piece of rosin from his pocket, then runs the mini-bow across it once.

Okay. Now time to test it for real! He pulls the mini-bow across the tiny strings, and...

...It. Kind of works? It's not by any means perfect, but it's more sound than Sen managed to get out of it with her fingernail, so there's that?]

[Hey, looks like it's kinda making music.]

That sounds kinda neat. Wonder if you could actually do a song with something that tiny?
divertimento: (15)

[personal profile] divertimento 2017-08-21 01:02 am (UTC)(link)
Anything complicated is out, I think, but...

[Ugh, positioning for this is so awkward, but he manages to play a song after a bit of struggling.

A thrilling rendition of Hot Cross Buns. You're welcome.]
