WEEK 4

[whimsicalism]

WEEK FOUR

Monsters come in all shapes and sizes, it would seem.

The students of Ira Academy will find themselves entering the new week with their hunger sated, but it's likely the grisly scene of Friday's murder and the demonstration of the execution make the food hit much heavier. The risk of death is still very real, and astute watchers might also find it haunting to think about what sort of twisted game could have forced Yuta to lose control of his own actions. Or perhaps, for the fifth week in a row, people are just finding themselves angrier at their circumstances and their captor than ever.

After her release from the washing machine last week, Nanami Kiryuu can be found more often shadowing the other students around, hanging out in the periphery and putting in appearances even if she doesn't have information to share or announcements to pass on to the rest of the group - as long as no one makes an attempt to shoo her away.

The stairs open up to another newly remodeled floor, offering new locations that may prompt more answers to your dilemma--or more questions. There's no way to know which it will be. Thankfully, there's always a new mind-numbing relaxation activity to take in.

How long can this keep going on?

OOC NOTES

Welcome to Week 4! New locations are now open, a couple of old ones have been tweaked, and characters have started the next week of their education. Please hit the mods with a ping in Discord and put INVESTIGATE in your subject line if you're interested in exploring a new location. Nanami may be putting in some public appearances in threads this week; otherwise, please ping + Discord tag her or the (SHEEP) if you want to speak with then. All NPCs are still available for their private contacts as well!

As a reminder, AC runs Sunday to Sunday concurrent with these posts and is collected based on the prior week; this means you have a whole week to get in AC for the week prior. AC for week 3 should be submitted no later than this coming Sunday. Remember to submit your regains, and sign up for a spot exploring this week's mystery if you want to!

[...yeah, Dylan is definitely staring, and...his face is hard to read. Just that...any emotions he is having, he's trying to hold back. Not let anything show.]

You...you really didn't know? About...about what she'd do?

[ He shook his head. ] I honestly thought she was gonna make dogwool out of it... You know, taking a dog's shed fur, turning it into yarn and stuff?

[ Sigh. ] Boy, was I wrong.

[...deep breath in, deep breath out...]

I think...I don't hate you, but...I'm not sure how I feel about you, right now. They could still be in danger, and if you really, really didn't know, then...

I don't know. I need to think on it more. If you want any answers, I just...need some time.

[His voice is subdued. Still trying to keep anything back.]

... Okay, yeah. Let's... Just... Move on for now.

[ He has no idea how to feel about this either. ]
