CHAPTER 5

monday

tuesday

wednesday

thursday

Almost half of the non-fairy population of Aira Niluc is gone.

Some may be feeling the absence of their fellow participants in this story. Others will stay focused on the wish they want to get. What never changes is that the story goes on, bringing you closer to the end -- and to another chapter. What will it bring this time?

Snow!

Snow as far as the eye can see, a cold blanket covering the new area. Some winter amenities are now available, ready for perusal! But that's not all there's to find: everyone also will find reminders of their homes, of people they know, of happier times.

Of their wishes.

Who will try to reach their wish this time?

[[Welcome to Week 5! 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.]]

Hey —

[ What are you adults doing — oh. Tenn is promptly smacked in the head with a snowball and looks towards the source.

It’s game time, friends, and the shift in his expression shows that he’s not here to fuck around.

Tenn promptly shovels snow into his hand and fires his snowball towards Jack. ]

[biqe]

Wait, I— could we all be careful where we're stepping, please?

[heroicact]

Waaah!! Help me, Phillip, I'm not as fast as yooouuu!

[Why is he asking Phil for help. Jack is giving him a quintessential, why am I being bullied face, even though he's probably the one least! Qualified!!! To do that!!!! But also he just ran away from Tenn's snowball by covering his head with his arms and falling on his butt, so.

Now they're both on the ground!!!]

It seems safer down here...

[But there is still a stray snowball flying--]

1/2

[biyishuangfei]

O-oh right.

[ Well, he's not moving that's for sure...it's easy to tell Phil lost his monocle because now he's not wearing it!! ]

...There's some snow that's been thrown around, so...I'm not sure if it's covered that little thing of yours or not. Maybe I can help you look for i--

2/2

[biyishuangfei]

[ And then he gets hit by a snowball and falls face first into a pile of snow. ]

STARTS A PC IN THE SNOWPILE (no)

[heroicact]

[While they're both stuck facefirst in the snowpile or something--]

Psst, psst! What do you say to teaming up... Marcus is scary...

LMFAOOOO

[biyishuangfei]

[ How did they end up like this, is the question... no things like this usually happen to people like them (and Phil.) ]

So we take him both at once, then? He does seem rather occupied...

[heroicact]

[It really might just be their lot in life and snowfall. At least they are not Phil, and do not have monocles to send flying, though at least Huaisang has a beefy friend.

Anyway, that's neither here nor there!]

Pincer movement! He can't take us both on at once, especially if he's distracted by Phillip. Maybe we can build up this snowbank as a defense too...?

[He's going to pause deliberations for a bit to exchange snowballs with Marcus again, but Operation Lumberjack Lock-on is a-go!]

[biyishuangfei]

[ Oh yes, certainly.....

Anyway. ]

That's a brilliant idea, Jack. Let's start building up the snowbank and then go in for the attack! He'll never see it coming!

[ He'll start right on said snowbank to build up that defense. ]

[heroicact]

[When this happens, now that Jack has sort of -- rolled Marcus' attention away from the original snowpile that Huaisang was working on...

Well, in between one snowpile and the next he'll give him a secret signal!! Which is just a thumbs up hidden by the bulk of himself before he tries to roll away from Marcus' snowball again.

Sic 'em, snowbuddy!]

[biyishuangfei]

[ LET'S GOOO

He'll get into position and let it whirl.

Also he finished the fort now. ]

Got him!

[edamamepon]

[ Makoto watches this whole scene unfold with a laugh. He calmly sets the bottles to the side and dutifully checks his mulled wine one last time. Yes, there are enough chestnuts for a while too.

On his way to the battlefield, he scoops up some snow and pulls his scarf a little tighter. Right after throwing it, he calls out. ]

Tenn!

[ Please look over just in time for snow. Ha Ha Ha. ]

[incompletely]

[ He hears that, and he’s pelted effectively. Wow, bestie!!!

Tenn will smirk and messily shovel a bunch of snow into his hands, and run up to Makoto as he makes an attempt to dump it on his head, ruffling his hair all the same. ]

[edamamepon]

[ Upon impact, Makoto dies laughing. Vote for Tenn.

Makoto expects return fire, but doesn't seem too worried about it while he's stuck laughing into his scarf. Instead Tenn opts for charging him. Scrambling for his next snowball, he's too slow to avoid getting snow dumped onto his head. Hair ruffled and snow-covered, he moves to retaliate with the snowball he'd been preparing --right on Tenn's head as well. ]

[incompletely]

[ Makoto please!! Tenn takes the retaliation in stride though and laughs, more freely than anyone’s probably ever heard him laugh here before, and he gives Makoto a little playful shove before he starts dusting the snow off of his head. ]

You sure are asking for it, Edamura Makoto.

[edamamepon]

[ Makoto is shoved, but still not quite done laughing as he leans over to try and brush off as much of the snow as he can. Some of it has melted, leaving tufts of hair more flattened. He still has the gall to grin at him. ]

Maybe. But I got you pretty good though.

[ Makoto hasn't had enough wine to cell him Tenn-chan, not that it doesn't cross his mind. ]

[incompletely]

[ Tenn grins and brushes the last remains of snow out of his hair. ]

Just this once.

[ He shakes his head. ]

You’re ridiculous.

[ But he sounds very fond. ]

[edamamepon]

[ Makoto lets a few more bits of laughter out before he takes a deep breath, wipes at the tears in his eyes. ]

I seriously don't remember the last time I laughed that hard. [ He rubs at his face with one hand, sore from being unable to contain his smile. The other reaches out to help Tenn get any snow that he missed on himself out. ]

I should hit you with snowballs more often.
