CHAPTER 6

monday

tuesday

wednesday

thursday

The dead now outnumber the living.

There's only one area that stayed a mystery until now. A new path revealed itself, leading to another town, surrounded by sturdy stone walls. Even from some distance away you can see the tower, rising high towards the skies. The path that leads to the city turns into gold before long, and the sky itself seems to take a beautiful tone, like it's painted with watercolors. It's such a peaceful-looking town, welcoming you with open gates. It must be nice to have another urban setting, after living in the same place for so long.

But no matter what you find it doesn't change the situation you're in. Now that your numbers are dwindling that's impossible to forget.

The story is nearing its end. There still are a handful of pages left. What will they bring?

[[Welcome to Week 6! 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; this is the last week for murder proposals as week 7 is endgame. Also, please note the shop's discount on magnifying glasses! ]]

[Suga jumps a little at the discordant noise before looking over to Yeager and the piano. Whatever he's doing over there, he doesn't know what it is, but he can help...?

After picking up a clarinet, he takes a deep breath before playing a sharp, shrill and loud note.]

[scythegun]

[as a former clarinet player, you mean a regular note???]

Perfect.

[Time for another horrific chord!! Oh no he figured out you can use the pedal to extend it!! Who allowed this.]

[gemuinemanagement]

[I apologize because Suga is definitely not a clarinet player and is picking random notes to play as loudly as he possibly can. If they murder someone's eardrums, is there going to be a trial?]

[scythegun]

[As long as they don't die, probably not!! This is true suffering. For anyone else, because Yeager looks like he's having a great time, actually!!]

[gemuinemanagement]

[At least someone does! After a while Suga stops playing to write.]

What are we doing

[scythegun]

[There's a very loud, obnoxious chord for a moment, but finally Yeager stops.]

Being annoying, obviously!

[But okay no, he'll elaborate.]

Some time ago, Morgan suggested that I try my hand at the piano. It turns out I'm quite terrible at it!

[...he still looks so goddamn pleased with the godawful noises, though???]

[gemuinemanagement]

We should have done this on Monday morning
To drown out Hamelin's song

[Wh...whatever results that would have had.]

[scythegun]

Oh, you're right, I didn't even think of that... I wonder if that would work?

[just protect yourself from hamelin by playing godawful noise]

[gemuinemanagement]

We should try it next week
Have you figured out what this week's problem is

[scythegun]

No, I haven't. My movements don't feel impaired and I haven't noticed anything off yet... But I imagine it won't be long until we've worked out what we're dealing with.

[gemuinemanagement]

Can't wait
I'm sure it'll be just as fun and wonderful as last week

[He doesn't need to be able to talk for the sarcasm to be clear.]

[scythegun]

Oh ja, certainly... He does seem to be making them worse and worse, doesn't he?

[Or maybe that's just Yeager's perspective because last week was really bad. It was sort of good in some ways?? He got character development?? But also it sucked.]

[gemuinemanagement]

I'd speculate but I don't want to give him any ideas

[scythegun]

Precisely. Best just to leave it be and try to ignore it as much as possible.

[gemuinemanagement]

[Considers this.

Toots on the clarinet again.]

I wasn't sure this would work

[scythegun]

It does make for an excellent distraction, ja? The perfect way to drown out everything else!

[And here's another godawful chord to go along with it!!]

[gemuinemanagement]

[Toots intensify. Ptoo.

They might be here for a while, assuming Tenn doesn't kill both of them.]

[scythegun]

[To dying of our own stupidity!!!!

But eventually Yeager will let up with a laugh.]

Thank you for indulging me~ I thought you'd be irritated!

[gemuinemanagement]

[Suga shakes his head with a small smile.]

I don't often get the chance to be loud

[scythegun]

It's pretty fun, ja? I certainly enjoyed your accompaniment!

[gemuinemanagement]

Do you think other people are annoyed

[scythegun]

If they are, they can take it up with me. I definitely encouraged you, after all~

[gemuinemanagement]

I'll blame you 100%

[Thanks, Yeager!!]

[scythegun]

I would deserve it, after all~!

[gemuinemanagement]

I hope nobody's too mean to you

[It's just a bit of noise, no big deal...]
