CHAPTER 2

CHAPTER 2




The first chapter was over. The stakes and mechanics of the system you're in have been shown to their full extent, and regardless of how you feel about the Samidare and Zola's deaths, the story must go on.

Clean-up is done with a perfection that'd make you wonder if there ever was a murder on that rooftop in the residential district. Everything is spotless and repaired, making it look like nothing ever happened. If it wasn't for the absence of two people among your number, you'd think it had all been a bad dream. But it wasn't. The brutality of the incident and the execution make that plainly clear.

Now, with the opening of a new week, something else opens. Lands beyond the area you spent seven days in. What will the new week bring? Will it be another murder?

Keep turning the pages and find out.

[[Welcome to Week 2! Feel free to make top levels at your discretion, and remember to note it in your header if you plan on investigating any locations. However, please try to keep investigations to Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday! You can also privately contact Hamelin at your leisure.

In addition, a reminder that any Murder Proposals for this week are due by Tuesday 3:00 PM EST/12:00 PM PST! However, please note that you have the option of submitting murder proposals for a later week as well.]]

[ She looks at him dubiously - at the practice sword he's holding, at the way he's wielding it with ease. ]

Um, hehe. I take it this is not one of those times? Unless by body, you mean your mouth specifically. Then, yes... I see how it is doing very poorly at... putting on a act.

[ Pfft. ]

I would recommend limping a little next time.

Oh, that's not a bad idea...

[Wait a second...

WOW. Called right out!! Raven sputters immediately.]


S-So I do better in the heat! I won't deny that! It's about the only time my old body's not creaking! You should see me in the cold!

[ So what he's saying is... ]

So you are weakest in the cold, and anyone who desires to have their wish granted should strike while the iron is... hehe... cold.

[ He could say it louder for the world to hear? ]
reallyfishy: (★ weakened)

[Holy shit??? That gets Raven to back up a step.]

That's not what I...! Y-Yuri darlin', you're startin' ta scare me.
sempiternel: (087)

[personal profile] sempiternel 2021-06-09 08:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, I promise there's nothing to be scared of. You're perfectly safe.

[ ... For now? It's too early in the week for murder. ]

If anything should happen in the future, however... Well, I'm sure they'll be gentle with you, since you are so frail of body and mind.
reallyfishy: (★ ughhhhh)

[personal profile] reallyfishy 2021-06-11 05:31 am (UTC)(link)
Wow, I never said I was frail of mind... You're hurtin' Raven's feelin's here.

[Drag him, Yuri.]

What's yer angle here, anyway? Just ta make some jabs at me?
sempiternel: (100)

[personal profile] sempiternel 2021-06-11 03:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Hmm... if I had an angle, I suppose it would be something like: Please. Don't call me darling.
reallyfishy: (★ regret)

[personal profile] reallyfishy 2021-06-12 04:55 am (UTC)(link)
N-Never again, cross my heart.

[The shivers he's getting...definitely remind him of a certain teen back home. Yeesh.]
sempiternel: (005)

[personal profile] sempiternel 2021-06-13 07:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Thank you! I appreciate that. And I hope our acquaintanceship continues to be as pleasant as it was today.
reallyfishy: (★ raven's hard life)

[The fact that she moves on like it was nothing...!!]

Of course! I couldn't ask fer anything better.
