[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.]
Spoiler warning for stalkers, just to be safe
[He's suddenly clinging to Akira very tightly. Sorry boyfriend, he doesn't mean to squeeze your ribs like that.]
Ordinarily I would refuse to answer a question like that, since even that much is...deeply personal. But since I already know one of your secrets...a fair trade.
The most likely scenario is that, if I go home after the secret is revealed, I would be arrested and then murdered by corrupt officers. I doubt most of the people here would keep supporting me if they knew, either.

There's a quiet sound, but he's resting his hands on Goro's arms. But he doesn't do anything to stop it just yet. Instead...
... well...
His expression is darkening, eyes narrowing a little at Kurama. But, he closes his eyes, working to keep his expression at least steady. ]
It's not about the number of people... [ A quiet exhale, gaze rested on the floor. ] Besides, if anyone tried to give you hell for any of it, they'd have to deal with me.

I don't offer my support lightly, Goro-kun. Not to someone in the leadership capacity you've taken here. I don't withdraw it lightly, either.
I'm old enough to know how very few things are black and white, ultimately.
...I wonder if it will be possible to find a way for someone besides you to travel to your world. Even without your secret coming out, if those are the consequences, it sounds like a bit of help might not go amiss.
