CHAPTER 4

CHAPTER 4




The story continues onward. In the span of another week, another four people perished. Your numbers have been diminishing more and more, making the world a little more empty.

At least the rumored giant peach that had been seen for a while is finally unveiled, in the middle of a lake surrounded by smaller yet still ridiculously large fruits. The landscape is idyllic and nonsensical, in par with the drunken escapades of last week. Given the everything that was this past weekend, why not sail on one of the magically operated rowboats and explore what this new area has to offer? You could even take a bite out one of the abundant normal-sized peaches floating around, if you're so inclined.

[[Welcome to Week 4! 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.]]

I suppose. It's nothing I really ever did, before. It was just something I needed to do as a way to get closer to the driver. [ pauses ] The person who was supposed to ride with him lost her memory, so she wasn't going to be able to ride for the upcoming race, so I offered to take her place instead.

[Get closer to the driver...]

Did you like him

[ She hesitates, before nodding a bit. ]

I think he reminds me of my past, as well. He has that same warmth and ability to be able to trust despite barely knowing me. But...

[ She trails off, shaking her head. ]

It's complicated.
gemuinemanagement: (I am see-through)

I won't tell anyone
It's probably a good idea not to worry too much about that kind of thing while you're here


[Even if the boy Morgan's talking about probably won't murder one of their mutual friends and then be executed.]

[ C-ta........ 2!

She's quiet for a moment, before she speaks again: ]


... He's already in a relationship with someone else. The woman who lost her memory. I thought I was supposed to get closer to them in order to push them apart, but... it only seems to be bringing them closer together.

[ Her hands open and close into fists a few times as she talks. ]

[...Ah.]

Sometimes things don't work out like you'd want
And if the person you like is happy with someone else, you have to accept that somehow

[ She makes a small noise in reply, but it's more of acknowledgement and less of agreement. ]

I just wish I knew what was the point of doing all that. It was supposedly to help me achieve my goal, but...

[ She sighs. ]

Sorry. I don't mean to be bringing you down with this.
gemuinemanagement: (why don't you mind)

[personal profile] gemuinemanagement 2021-06-28 10:44 am (UTC)(link)
It's OK

[After a second, he reaches out and lightly pats her shoulder.]
