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.]]

[Suga considers for a second before pulling a piece of larimar out of the pile of gems.]

It's about this color

[ that is actually really pretty???

spoiler: it is also the colour of james bond's eyes. yeah that's a thing.

which is why william pauses-- ]


Could you use that to make another different pendant?
gemuinemanagement: (why don't you mind)

[personal profile] gemuinemanagement 2021-06-15 06:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Only if you promise not to kill anyone next week either

[...it's hard to tell, but this is a joke.]
mathodical: (48)

[personal profile] mathodical 2021-06-15 06:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Only if it's in self defense?

[ this is clearly a joke. ]
gemuinemanagement: (let's type words)

[personal profile] gemuinemanagement 2021-06-15 06:19 pm (UTC)(link)
[Suga tilts his head like he's considering this for a second, before nodding. Self-defense is okay.]

[ suga will get a soft chuckle and a pleased smile from william ]

My brother doesn't like senseless killing, either. It defeats the purpose of so many things.
gemuinemanagement: (of indignation)

[personal profile] gemuinemanagement 2021-06-15 06:25 pm (UTC)(link)
I think most people don't like senseless killing

[Like. It bothers him that you had to relate that to one person disapproving specifically...]
mathodical: (03)

[personal profile] mathodical 2021-06-15 06:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Serial killers would disagree, and I've run into far more of those than I'd like to.
gemuinemanagement: (now all the late night bars)

[personal profile] gemuinemanagement 2021-06-15 06:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Your life sounds scary
mathodical: (06)

[personal profile] mathodical 2021-06-15 06:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Do serial killers or ghosts sound scarier?

[ amused. :)

sorry suga, he should be leaving you to your smithing but he's having way too much fun with this. ]
gemuinemanagement: (you move so fast)

[personal profile] gemuinemanagement 2021-06-15 06:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Ghosts, I guess
There are worse things than dying
mathodical: (38)

[personal profile] mathodical 2021-06-16 02:52 am (UTC)(link)
... Is that so?

Not everyone comes back as a ghost, right?
gemuinemanagement: (now shush)

[personal profile] gemuinemanagement 2021-06-16 02:55 am (UTC)(link)
Most people pass on peacefully
But an angry spirit's victims also become tormented spirits
Unable to move on
