Week 6

Sunday - Thursday

Another week of misfortune has passed by and while the end result is that there won't be any issues to anyone's existence being altered for the worst, it doesn't mean anyone's celebrating. If anything, the stressful machinations of the recent trial would require some of you to have someone champion some sort of recuperation amongst you in an attempt to relieve the strain. Whether or not its entirely successful in doing so is up to each individual. After all, there are some of you who are naturally able to endure more than others.

There's not even much time for that before the dawn of the next week is upon the castle. As it comes, everything seems quiet, which is understandable, considering that five lives were lost in the previous week.

Of course, the next best thing to focus on would be what's been newly revealed within the castle. It'll help most of you get your mind off of the current situation to an extent—distractions have a way of making that possible. Presuming, by chance, you do find yourself taking a peek at the sakura tree, you'll notice that the buds have started to finally open up. Is it time for spring at last? If so, you might find yourself wishing that the season would suddenly find itself on hold.

That's just it. He knows all the secrets and knows us and thinks someone will kill. Yet all of us here resisted much worse.

[originallutece]

Mirror pearl.

[She glances around, but no, pearl isn't one of the stones they've got hanging around their necks.]

I don't suppose any of you have seen any pearls around, have you?

[buddyoldpal]

Ohhh!! Shit!

[ Nishitani jumps up like, oh!! Oh, he knows this!! He reaches into his pocket produces A PEARL! ]

Do ya think he means... the mirror Eizen-kun found in the pond?

[godinsolitude]

Please don't.

[Ugh.]

That'll get uncomfortable quickly.

[godinsolitude]

It's worth a try, I suppose. Does anyone have it?

[buddyoldpal]

I'd be down fer that!

[ He's not joking...... ]

[originallutece]

Perhaps if they were in proximity of one another?

[maddogs]

The one he tried ta fuckin' throw back in.

[ nishitani ]

[gyakusatsu]

[Ah, she's been wondering about this for weeks. Naturally, this piques her curiosity and she picks the book up to read.]

Corruption, decay, madness....
Scrying, illusion, miscommunication...
Purification, unification, prosperity?

[irrationalities]

[There's a bit of a pause before he continues nonchalantly.]

Unless I got lied to, breaking 'em or taking them off's not a good idea, because we'll get corrupted.

[buddyoldpal]

Yeah! That shit!

[ Majima.... I'm sorry.... ]

Where'd it go? Ya think somethin'll happen if we put 'em together?

[godinsolitude]

They blacked out the colors themselves, unfortunately. Smart, but unfortunate.

[maddogs]

Guess it'd be a good justification for killin' Eizen, at least.

[notimmortal]

[No and now he's going to head to his room for a fresh bottle and come back. Thanks dude.]

[buddyoldpal]

I know I talkedta Sage-chan an' he said they keep all the pendants somewhere "safe." They don't destroy 'em or get rid of 'em or nothin', they're just locked up in some closet or some shit.

[notimmortal]

Yeah, so it's a matter of should we share with each other and risk that or should we assume the risk is more in it being shared in our worlds?

[buddyoldpal]

Maybe 'cause of us ain't got nothin' ta lose? If Majima wasn't here, I wouldnta told everybody I was dead from the start. Might be somethin' like that -- not like we can spot a good liar after seein' em lie fer six weeks.

[maddogs]

We could try, if ya want.

[pseudoregelia]

It couldn't hurt!

[THIS SOUNDS LIKE AN ADVENTURE LET'S GO.]

[gyakusatsu]

It's interesting that this was left in the library at all. Why not just destroy it?

[aumygoddess]

A color of corruption, decay, and madness?

[ jesus lord, when did the color wheel become deadly ]

[godinsolitude]

Yellow topaz.

[maddogs]

The mirror's back in my room.

[ with his literal dragon hoard of shit. ]

I can go get it.

[notimmortal]

Corruption usually has an association with black as does decay. The last ones would go with white. The middle ones, maybe blue? Scrying can have an association with water and illusions can ripple when broken.

[buddyoldpal]

I mean, I know Emperor-han's supposedta be a merguy, maybe this is some kinda... mer-spell.

[ Mer-maybe. ]
