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.

[....Well that sure was something.]

Try not to be in the bathhouse?

[maddogs]

What, is it like fuckin' offensive ta ya that we use it?

[buddyoldpal]

Shit, awesome!

[ Probably not the time, but Nishitani whoops, speaking at the now-blue mirror. ]

Aw, pal, ya don't like what ya saw? I'm hurt, ya know!

[devilsphysician]

Looks like I'm one of two Rubies left.

[maddogs]

[ majima punches nishitani as assume but, also, frowns towards ros too. ]

Ya don't get ta be rude, either, Lutece-han.

[originallutece]

It's going to be a risk to your wellbeing if you end up fainting and cracking your head open on the stone floor.

[buddyoldpal]

No kiddin'!

[ Nishitani chuckles. ]

I doubt a couple'a kids got secrets that're worth fuckin' killin' for.

[gyakusatsu]

So who do you think censored it?

[gyakusatsu]

....Considering what just happened with that mirror from the pond, I think you've sold me on blue, Jansen.

But it does raise the question of what the significance of all this really is.

[buddyoldpal]

[ He had the punch coming, obviously. Plus, he's into it. And Majima's even defending his virtue. Is it any wonder he's in love with this guy? ]

I got plentya self-control. I just choose not ta exert it.

[notimmortal]

Probably depends on the sort of magic being spoken of. But if you need more explained feel free to ask. Though actually with the topic of corruption and magic, it really reminds me of Saman when we first arrived there. Not sure if it's the same, but it was a really freaky thing to see.

[originallutece]

[On the one hand: she could absolutely stand to be a little less rude. On the other hand: it sure as hell isn't going to come about when she's embarrassed.]

I can't imagine living like that. There's not a bit of my life that I don't keep a tight leash on.

[originallutece]

To say the least. A friend of yours?

[godinsolitude]

[Ugh.

He can't just continue to say it's nothing, not with Rosalind refusing to buy the exhaustion line he'd fed some others.]

Then I'm sick.

[gyakusatsu]

i foudn a key in the library last week, though it doesn't open that room in the back. As of yet, I haven't worked out what it opens.

[devilsphysician]

Perhaps a room we have yet to see?

[He hates that there is a recognizable pattern]

[originallutece]

What does it look like?

[maddogs]

[ majima laughs - both at her metaphor and the idea ]

's how I usedta be, huh Nishitani?

[gyakusatsu]

That's what I think as well, yes.

But I'll give the castle another thorough look this week. If anyone's seen a lock that appears as though it'd match this key, do let me know.

[She holds out a black and ornate looking key]

[gyakusatsu]

[After showing Georik, she'll turn to Ros with it. They key is black and ornate looking!]

Like this.

[devilsphysician]

[He takes out his glasses to examine it, committing it to memory to sketch in his notebook later]

Whoever made it certainly has an eye for detail, it's quite likely the lock would match this.

[irrationalities]

Yeah. Did you seriously fall asleep here?

[Did you learn nothingggggggg]

[originallutece]

[Hm.]

Georik might be correct. But it might not hurt to give all the locks in the castle another go. There's enough magical nonsense around that I wouldn't be surprised if some only open during a certain day or hour.

[originallutece]

Yes, thank you, we've established that. Sick with what?

[Isn't she such a nice nurse?]

[gyakusatsu]

[She kinda smiles at that, but at the moment she's really not that much better.]

I guess some things just don't carry over too well, huh. On the bright side, hitting a non lethal spot is preferable in the long run..
