WEEK 2

[The unfortunate death, and subsequent execution, has no doubt weighed on everyone's minds since. The dam has burst, and now, the idea that someone may kill another in this place is not just a possibility anymore. It is reality, and a very terrifying reality at that.

Yet, there is a strange side effect to the murder's aftermath. When the Titled go to sleep on Saturday evening, they will dream, even if they don't normally do so. When they wake up, their dream stays with them, and a thought comes to everyone. A realization.

Their dream had been a memory they lost. Now, they have it back, as if they had never lost it.

Nor is that the only change. They also feel just a little more confident in their power. Confident enough that they find that their ability has evolved to become stronger. Whether that's a good or a bad thing, well...

Soon enough, too, the Titled's phones start pinging, and when they open up their LIME app, they receive a simple message:]

Your Mall Map has been updated!

[And indeed, those who go to check the Food Court will find an elevator on the eastern end which leads to a brand new wing that had previously been obscured by the barrier.

Dio and Wake's information is also slightly different from before on the LIME app, but...maybe it's best not to think about it. Last week had been...disheartening.

Hopefully, this week will be better, right? Surely, this week, temptation won't win out again....right?

Well.

There's only one way to find out.

Welcome to Week 2, Titled.

There are thirteen strangers in this place.

This week's crab is Dungeness.]

[ It reminds him of his knowledge on how to make coffee and curry... and even of his surprising endurance and strength. They're there, amplified from what he remembers, and very much a part of him he doesn't mind.

And he can't say being able to move with some reflexes he doesn't recall having quite to this extent is a regrettable thing.

Hey, it's nice being able to block that punch!!!

Regardless of the surprise, he's going to be quickly jumping back -- that sure isn't the kind of agility someone might expect from a seemingly harmless guy like Akira...

But he's quickly out of range... even if hand-to-hand isn't his strong point, meaning he's open against a seasoned fighter.

Whoops.

... Yes, he is going to be on the defensive until he gets a proper read on Karma's style. ]

[ That in itself was both surprising and impressive on it's own. Seeing Akira block that punch with such ease gave him a bit of hope for this training of theirs.

A laugh breathed out past his lips even as he watched the other jump out of range, shaking his head before going on the move once again. His steps are quick, fast and light. Only as he's within a few feet of Akira, does it seem like he's fully intending to punch him in the stomach this time before stopping short, shifting his stance along with his body as to bring up his opposite hand in a fierce uppercut.

After all. He had to know Karma wasn't at all going to think twice about the hits he was delivering here. ]
