week 6 monday

[bookpapers]

[with his letters]

Did anyone else tell you guys to die?

[situationship]

... Yeah. The mortuary got a bunch, but Suguru got something interesting!

[ spoon can do that ]

For me, Daan wrote this: [ Passes. ]

Another week well-past, Mr. Gojo. If you have any final preparations to make, it'll be during the coming one. The one after is the point of no return, but also the best time to make any noise and disruptions. Try not to act out until then.

Now, the body is comprised of a multitude of systems working together to create a functioning living organism. However, to connect the soul to the flesh, there requires the systema nervosum. I don't take it that you would've happened to find that among the last four who went on a venture?

Oh, yeah. It looks like I wrote too late yesterday. I got letters that didn't mention what I wrote and Aerith even wrote to me about being mean to not write her back.

[bookpapers]

[looks at this letter, hmmm]

Final preparations -- he means for this week, right?

[also]

...Do we know if Anis or Yuffie got a brain?

[situationship]

Sounds like it. We'll have to do the numbers game during this week?

... Anis got a lizard, so... I don't know what Yuffie got.

[bookpapers]

I think so yeah. ...I figured we still had another week to get us down to six.

[sweats. fifteen people now seems like a lot?]

[situationship]

[ bad end bad end ]

If we take us out, four people would go... But then we'd need to consider another six.

[bookpapers]

[BAD END BAD END]

We should really talk about this as a group... But I'm worried about Ash and whoever killed Tomi being there.

[situationship]

... Can't we just use this Saturday to plan? The veil's up, right?

[bookpapers]

M'not sure if we'll have the time to. We still need to vote for someone so that they can use the blood for the ritual...

Or are you thinking that we should make a game plan and then vote for whoever based on what we decide?

[situationship]

I know that we all want to honor the dead and why they died, if we get corpses this week, which we should. And we want that. But whether we vote for the right person or not does not matter at this point.

We can kill people outside of Thursday evening and we can kill people during Saturday, then if the next week is the cutoff of no return... We want to land on six after execution.

Then we'd need to kill another person off before Monday?

[ IS THAT WHERE WE ARE AT? ]

[bookpapers]

[oh boy i love math]

...Pretty much. And we should make sure none of the last five is afflicted, so that they're not in danger of getting killed.

[situationship]

Does anyone know if Yuffie got a curio from the swamp for killing Lucas at trial?

[bookpapers]

[oh he looks surprised at this]

...She never said, but I can ask her. [oh] Speaking of Lucas -- he's the one who apparently killed Ichi.

[turbulency]

Vin got one for killing Nona, so probably.

[turbulency]

Aqua suggested it, yeah. She sent me this:

[ You've probably heard by now we've been taking lessons on cooking. The current recipe we're learning has a 2hr timer with 6 ingredients, but we're finding it needs adjustments—shorter cook time with fewer ingredients.

If you take it out of the oven too early, the recipe is ruined and will have to be remade from scratch. Not to mention the stench it makes. But if you leave it in for the full 2hrs, it turns out overdone.

1hr 45min should be just right, with 5 ingredients. Some of us think you could try it with even fewer. And as an aside, if you're finding your pantry pretty full, some decluttering wouldn't hurt (within reason).

I hope this isn't too confusing. The lesson we've taken away is to be careful. It would be best if you could come over here, so we can show you how it's done. ]

I know a few people were talking about the timing of dropping our numbers.

[bookpapers]

[this is such a funny letter ooc, lavi reads this]

She sent me the same. Also, Robin sent this.

[It will take you strength for what you must do, but I know you can find it in your heart. Please consider this situation: if a recording company asked me to write and sing 40 songs for them without proper compensation, what should be done?

Of course I would leave them fewer than six songs for them to profit from. I would revoke their rights to my songs but not so fast that they'd notice right away but fast enough that they couldn't do anything when the release date comes. It will be difficult when songs can provide so much comfort, but sometimes, a requiem can be more freeing, as much as we never want to hear one.]

Nona said that we got Laudna's picture wrong, and that we're actually killing people too slowly.

[turbulency]

Oh. [ yikes ] Shit.

But we do want to avoid drawing too much suspicion. Maybe we should let this week play out, and then figure out how to cull our numbers next week?

[bookpapers]

[nodding...]

We talked at the house about trying not to vote for people with partners, but I think we're gonna have to this week.

[turbulency]

Yeah, it's not a deterrent anymore.

All this stuff is about how to stop the ritual. We still don't have any clues about how to get out of here, do we?

[bookpapers]

Haven't got anything about that. Just stuff about how it might be better over there.

But apparently the other place is way safer. And that the dead all have a better chance of escaping than we do.

[turbulency]

Okay.

So we drop to five, disrupt the ritual, and then the last five off themselves too?

[bookpapers]

Wait, the last five have to die too? ...So they can escape from the cult?

[turbulency]

I don't know. You said the dead have a better chance of escaping? If there's no escape route on this side, and then yeah, they'd have to die too?

We don't know yet, but that might be one of the ways things shake out.

[situationship]

Wow... All deaths...

[turbulency]

[ Looks at Satoru... ]

We don't know.
