WEEK 3

WEEK 3

[It has begun. With the death of the Spinner and the execution of the Indulgent, they remaining Titled will be plagued once more by vivid dreams. And just as last week, they are awoken by the sounds of doors creaking open.

Just like last week. But no one had died last week. Right? No one had been subjected to that...thing.

And yet the strange, cold feeling of foreboding remains. And it is certainly most worrisome to those living in rooms 3, 4, 6, and 15. Those who pass by room 7 and 8 will feel that same, worrisome feeling of foreboding as well.

What will they wake up to find? Who knows, now. If dragons are real, anything is possible.

There are thirteen strangers in this place.]

library

[kiddefender]

[Now that she can read, Raph is taking full advantage of having a library. Ignore that she mostly seems to be reading children's adventure books.

Her ears twitch at the noise of paper ripping.]

What are you doing to it?

[zephyranthe]

[Fie would not judge Raph's choice of literature tbh because real books are only for Nerds!! and we can't have that.]

I'm cutting out pictures.

[She's completely blasé about that answer too... If Raph looks at the pictures that have already been cut out, they're all of sakura blooms, though.]

[kiddefender]

Aren't you supposed to use wood for craving?

[She's not an expert, but...]

[zephyranthe]

I'm not trying to carve anything, though.

[Actually, she also doesn't know how to carve anything more elaborate than 'pointy stick' anyways.]

There's no sakura trees in here, though, so I was gonna make one.

[kiddefender]

I don't think anyone here has the magic to make trees grow... Or change the types of trees.

[She has seen it happen before though.]

Wouldn't it be better to grow one in the garden if you can find the seeds?

[zephyranthe]

I don't know what my power is yet, but I could try something with the plants.

[She's pretty sure it won't work, mind, but eh, why not.]

It'd take too long. That and I dunno if we have any around, anyways.

[kiddefender]

I haven't worked mine out yet either... I wish they'd told us. It gives you something to try as well.

[She can't sit and do nothing.]

[zephyranthe]

Yup. The titles don't say anything either.

[Seriously, what did Yusuke's have to do with his power at all...?]

Have you tried doing anything?

[kiddefender]

I've tried practicing with my sword and just moving about but...

[zephyranthe]

Maybe you gotta do something you're not used to. Like throw a bear trap or something.

[this is a terrible idea in the making, don't do it Raph]

[kiddefender]

...Isn't that the opposite of how you use traps?

[She's simple girl. Stabbing things in the face works fine.]

[zephyranthe]

Yup. But could be effective for something.

[Or just looking stupid. That too.]

[kiddefender]

Like backfire and hit me instead?

[zephyranthe]

Maybe if your power is being a magnet.

[That would suck...]

[kiddefender]

What kind of power is that.?

[zephyranthe]

[She's not sure if Raph just doesn't know about magnets but??]

It means that metal wants to stick to you.

[Which would be pretty horrible to have in a place where there's a shitload of weapons lying around...]

[kiddefender]

But what's the point of that? Besides that's make fighting difficult.

[The worst power.]

[zephyranthe]

No one said these powers would be useful.

[Like... look at Yusuke's?]

[kiddefender]

So I could just have something that will kill me?

[Wouldn't be surprised tbh]

[zephyranthe]

Yup. Maybe you shouldn't practice around metal objects.

[she doesn't really know where she's going with this but she's at the 'sure why not' point right now]

[kiddefender]

That'll be difficult given that I fight with a sword.
