WEEK 3

WEEK 3

[Once everyone has gotten out of the elevator, those who go to look for Akira and Kurama will find that they have been put into one of their rooms, together, safely tucked into bed with a glass of milk for each of them. And - aside from the bruises of being suctioned into a death cylinder and tranquilized with some very strong drugs - they are alive and unharmed.

Naturally, this means that Akira and Kurama are the first to experience the dreams, but everyone will experience them, once they finally fall asleep, for good and ill.

Despite everything, too, the survivors will find many other new things facing them as they wake up. A new evolution for their powers, a new wing...and a new rule, updated after the execution. The profiles have also been updated, to reflect the Titled's ever-dwindling numbers.

This is going to be a long week, that's for sure.


There are ten strangers left in this place.

((OOC: Don't forget to do Activity Check along with memory regains, everyone!))

...Ursula.

[ Here, just. Check this computer. With your information on it. She'll point it out to you. ]

[theirmagic]

[ Loading Reading, please wait...

Oh. Oh, oh hell no. There's no way. But that's... definitely her signature... and all of this... she stares at it, long and hard, and then finally says: ]

This... it had to have been mine. But... why would I ever agree to coming to a place like this? I had to have been tricked into it. There's no way I would sign a document without reading every single word carefully. I used to--my family used to be in the show business... I know better...

[scienceofmagic]

...Ursula. What if those shadows in the pictures already existed before we came to this game? Would you sign this, then, if it meant protecting your students?

[theirmagic]

W-well, I...

[ She frowns, thinking deeply about it. ]

... If it came down to my life or Akko's and the others, I'd give mine up every time. So... I guess I would.

[scienceofmagic]

...If that picture is to be believed... I think I would, too.

[theirmagic]

You'd at least do it for me, if nothing else.

[ There's a long pause where she levels a glance at Croix, as if she wants to say something else, but she trails off, then changes the subject. ]

... How did you find all this? Did... did we all agree to this...?

[scienceofmagic]

...My contract is the same. As well as Britt's and Helena's.

[theirmagic]

... So we all agreed to this...

[ She... feels ill. ]

I... I don't know what to say. This information... changes things. If our homes are really truly in danger... what... can we do?

[scienceofmagic]

...We find a way to break the game and survive, as well as save our homes. There has to be a way.

[beguiledcard]

They said they're willing to explain what the threat is and how to stop it, but only to the winner.

[ There's a hardening of his expression. ]

Sounds like we just need to skip to the first part of that somehow. Find them and make them talk.
