WEEK 6

[whimsicalism]

Only one of your group died last week but the castle feels empty somehow. Whatever your thoughts on Alice were she did seem to curb the Cat's--no, the Storyteller's--impulses somewhat. Even if the Storyteller gave an end date for the game there seems to be a sinister air around the castle now. There's an area for the adventurous, at least?

Still, it likely won't help heal the wounds from last week... though, apparently, the Storyteller has decided to refill the library.

Sunday | Monday | Tuesday | Wednesday | Thursday

[Hello to week six, the last normal week before endgame! Don't forget to lose a memory. There's no AC this week! You can find the Storyteller at the audience chamber if you really want. As always you can turn in your threads for fabulous prizes!]

Actually, that would explain so much.

[Truly Date is just a font of valid questions. Mizuki puts her hands on her knees, thinking.]

He doesn't really talk about things that happened from before six years ago. So maybe he's an ex-con!!

[battlestations]

And he bargained his way out of prison by offering his criminal expertise to use in reverse!!

[ballooncaged]

That would actually make sense...

[She rubs her elbow.]

You can see how he's investigating all this stuff. And the MPD [metropolitan police department] actually makes weird deals under the table sometimes.

...though it's hard to imagine him actually being that smart. [Whew!]

[battlestations]

Okay, but if he's so stupid then why would they hire him normally?

[ballooncaged]

[Gasp]

They WOULD rather have someone they can blackmail!

[battlestations]

Think back with this in mind. Is there anything else suspicious?

[ballooncaged]

[Mizuki folds her hands, concentrating intensely.]

Date... Date...

[She clicks her tongue.]

I was thinking about how he had no family. And that doesn't necessarily have to be a bad thing. But... I forgot something.
