WEEK 3



[The week begins as last week began. But there's is a great difference-murder. It has happened. Blood has been drawn; it cannot be undone. The Game has made itself known. The Game is paramount. The Game simply is.

As morning dawns, those who were not present with the DEAD lock will find that the doors that were locked are now gone-and a whole new area has finally opened up to them. They will also find that they remember something they had not been able to recall beforehand. The question is, was it worth it?

And-is it you, or is the ship getting...colder as the hours go by? No, it's not just you. By the end of Sunday, the ship has started to dip into freezing temperatures. It might be difficult for people to bundle up-unless you're Brain, who will find his closet inundated with winter clothing that fit him perfectly.

Yup. This is going to be a long week, as if last week wasn't bad enough.



There are currently 16 strangers in this place.]

Yay!

[Let's hold doll hands!]

So...Vanitas?

[godspiousjasper]

[ Roland's all too happy to have their dolls hold hands! Definitely! ]

Yes! He's a young man who I'm really, truly quite fond of! Vanitas is an extremely talented individual who's doing some real good in the world.

[not_a_lego_maniac]

Ooooh! I wanna do good in the world, and so does my big brother!

Well, I want to try, you know? And I bet Roland does, too.

[godspiousjasper]

You'd be absolutely right! I believe in the both of you!

[ He can't help but chuckle softly at that, nodding alongside his words. Though the little 'Vanitas' gives a little scoff. ]

There's a lot of bad people out there. Are you willing to do whatever you can to protect your sister?

[not_a_lego_maniac]

...Yeah. I am. I want to protect the people close to me.

[He quietly squeezes his doll.]

Even my father...

[godspiousjasper]

That makes the both of us. I also wish to protect the people close to me as well.

[ Yet Zack's words give him pause and he frowned slightly. ]

Ah... did you and your father have some kind of disagreement or something prior to your arrival here, Zack? [ A pause and he cleared his throat afterwards. ] My apologies if I overstepped any.

[not_a_lego_maniac]

Mm. My father. It's a long story.

Daddy lied to my big brother about mommy.

It's all right, though. I've already told people about it. But yeah-I didn't know my mom was alive for most of my life.

[godspiousjasper]

What? That's awful!

[ He wiggled the little Vanitas doll as if he was frustrated and angry. ]

Sounds to me like it's more appropriate to call him a failure of a human being if he could lie to his own kid like that!

[not_a_lego_maniac]

He's still our daddy, though...

It's...it's all right. We fought it out, so...I still don't like him, but at least I don't hate him anymore.

[godspiousjasper]

If he had his reasons then I could understand, but until then my point stands.

Well. I suppose that's a little better but that's unfortunate that it still happened to you.

[not_a_lego_maniac]

I know.

[He lets out a sigh, before mustering up his approximation of his sister's voice.]

So, um. Vanitas, do you live in France like Roland?

[godspiousjasper]

[ It's not like him to press issues beyond a certain point, so of course he's all too happy to go along with things and makes the little Vanitas doll nod his head. ]

Oui, I do! Paris is a lovely city, so perhaps you can visit there with your big brother someday. I assure you it will be worth your time.
