FINAL WEEK

[Soon after, many of the figures lay dead. They bodies are splayed all over the stage. The female, however, seems to be gone.

Where did she go? What is she planning? It's unknown. But, soon after the Titled leave the Debate Hall, they are struck with a vivid vision. It is quick, but strong. Another dream, and this time, it is a waking dream.

Another memory. The Depths haven't been cleaned, either. The halls are silent, and no new doors seem to have opened. Yet deep down, you know. The end is near.

Its time to get ready. So, get ready, Titled.

There are seven strangers left.]

That moment when your phone does not send tags

[Anyone would be curious but again, Camilla knows now is not the best time to ask. Instead, one armored hand extends and takes his in a shake.]

I have been wondering why you were invisible before. What exactly happened if you do not mind me asking?

Rood.

They tried to make us vote for a guy who was forced into killing by a frenzy potion, and I'm still not even sure it was really him. I decided I'd had enough of their damn games, refused to vote, and told everyone else not to either. I figured they couldn't execute us if they couldn't see us, but they were damn fast in giving up on the vote and just trying to kill everyone.

[carnageandclass]

That's one way to obviously give away your position.

[It sounds like something her father would do. But whoever sent the assassins, even if sloppy, wanted them all dead. Common sense dictates all.]

If they're willing to go that far, it means you have them scared.

[carries_war]

We'd better, after making mincemeat of their dragon and saying to hell with all their motives to kill. Considering they were threatening to off Alexis this week, I think they were getting a bit desperate after two weeks of the deaths being flukes.

Guess they just picked the wrong people to pull this shit with.

[carnageandclass]

Desperation can lead to sloppy results.

I still have no idea how we got here but since we are, there is not a chance that I will sit idly by. But until we see an opening, all we can do is prepare.

[carries_war]

We'd better hope it comes soon. They haven't been replacing our food or getting rid of our garbage for a week.

[He gives a quick glance at the corpses strewn about.]

I should be able to avoid cutting into the food stores, myself, but that's still nine people to ration stuff out to.

[carnageandclass]

[Oh, they should take care of that.]

Hmm, maybe we should try to clean up first. If they don't kill us, the smell might do the job for them. As for food, is there fruit or vegetables that grow here? That could be our only option for the moment.

[Gods, she's thinking like Xander. It's weird.]

[carries_war]

There's edible plants in the Conservatex. We've been trying to live off of that as much as possible already. We've also been looking after the cow and chickens, since milk and eggs are the only renewable source of protein we have right now. If worst comes to worst, we can slaughter them...but it should be a last resort, unless we know it'll last us until we can get out of here.

[carnageandclass]

It sounds like you already have a plan in place. Now that the food issue is sorted out, we don't know if they will send more after us so it's best to at least stay in groups around nighttime-

[And then she realizes and sighs, pinching the bridge of her nose. Is she also...smiling a little?]

Gods, if my brothers saw this it would stun them.

[carries_war]

[Brothers. It makes him realize just how much he misses Gaignun, the presence missing from the back of his mind. He gives Camilla a faint smile and a clap to the arm.]

They'll get to. I already promised these guys I'd get them home, and hell if I'm leaving the people who helped us behind. Especially a beautiful young woman who handles a weapon the way you do.

[He flashes a grin, then it's back to serious.]

Our rooms aren't exactly big enough for groups, but there's plenty of bigger rooms we can set up blankets in. There's technically that rule against sleeping outside our rooms...but what're they gonna do, try to kill us for it?

[carnageandclass]

[Ahaha, how sweet. He's being friendly! Those kind of compliments are common and she would hear them from Laslow quite a bit. As well as others.]

That is very true. But knowing that so many rules have been broken already, it may be null and void.

[carries_war]

Even if it isn't, I don't exactly care if we piss them off even more. Honestly, at this point, I'm all for it.
