WEEK 2.

WEEK 2

Two people are dead. Jean Kirstein and Caren have both died due to a tragic accident. Of course, you're not entirely innocent, are you? You voted, you played into this game the Coordinators are running. But you know the stakes now. You know what failure to complete Rule Seven really means.

No more excuses from here on out.

Saturday is given to regrouping and sleep; come Sunday morning, the clock chimes the hour at seven o'clock and there are no dead bodies to be found, so it can be assumed that all of you are safe for the time being. That said, you'll be feeling a little groggy when you wake up; it seems you've regained something that you didn't realize you'd lost...

Of course, exploring the building from here on will reveal something new: namely, a stairwell in the northeastern corner, leading upwards toward a new floor entirely. Another sign of how things are going to progress around here, maybe; chances are you'll enjoy what you've been given, but was it worth the lives of two people to obtain?

[She enters as he's lighting the candle, bringing in a small breath.]

That's a nice tradition.

[If only it weren't necessary.]
perpend: (☔ i can hardly speak i understand)

[personal profile] perpend 2017-09-19 12:41 am (UTC)(link)
[He smiles sadly.]

It's the least I can do.
bloodbiter: (i'd even go as far as to)

[personal profile] bloodbiter 2017-09-19 12:43 am (UTC)(link)
That's not precisely true, is it? You could have simply done nothing.

[Credit where credit is due, and all.]

Is it a tradition from your home?
perpend: (☂ puttin' on the ritz)

[personal profile] perpend 2017-09-19 01:09 am (UTC)(link)
No, nothing like that.

But they need to be remembered.
bloodbiter: (remember to feed yourself and stay hot)

[personal profile] bloodbiter 2017-09-19 01:12 am (UTC)(link)
...I agree. I wish more than anything this could have been avoided, but in this circumstance, it's important to do something like this.

I thought about creating a portrait of each person.
perpend: (⚖ slowly breathing in)

[personal profile] perpend 2017-09-19 01:31 am (UTC)(link)
Ms. Ashworth mentioned something like that, too. I think that'd be nice, to memorialize them.
bloodbiter: (suck on that stigma botanists)

[personal profile] bloodbiter 2017-09-19 01:43 am (UTC)(link)
[She nods.]

If she was already working on such a thing, I wouldn't want to intrude. Someone like Susan... I think she would enjoy having something productive to work on.
perpend: (☂ on that famous thoroughfare)

[personal profile] perpend 2017-09-19 02:02 am (UTC)(link)
Ahh, I'm sure she wouldn't mind. Whatever we do to keep them alive in our thoughts-- I don't think it'll matter. There's so little we can do.
bloodbiter: (suck on that stigma botanists)

[personal profile] bloodbiter 2017-09-19 02:03 am (UTC)(link)
I will speak to her, at the very least.

[But...]

How are you feeling?
perpend: (☂ puttin' on the ritz)

[personal profile] perpend 2017-09-19 02:09 am (UTC)(link)
I'll manage. I'm an inspector; I've seen my fair share of terrible things.

But that doesn't make what happened any less terrible, to Hanamura, or anyone else.
bloodbiter: (you do not fuck with a man that knows)

[personal profile] bloodbiter 2017-09-19 02:12 am (UTC)(link)
You will manage, but... That isn't precisely what I was asking.

[A pause, and she shakes her head.]

But you needn't talk about it if you would rather not.
perpend: (☂ perfect fits)

[personal profile] perpend 2017-09-19 02:34 am (UTC)(link)
Ahh, you have a point.

I think it's too soon to give up. I... don't want to do that. Even in my dreams, I'm solving problems. I guess I can't let my brain rest.
bloodbiter: (they call me a wiener wizard)

[personal profile] bloodbiter 2017-09-19 02:36 am (UTC)(link)
[Despite the circumstance, there's a small smile.]

That kind of commitment will serve all of us well. I'm glad you're determined.
perpend: (☂ perfect fits)

[personal profile] perpend 2017-09-19 02:44 am (UTC)(link)
I hope so. I want to believe I could prevent something from happening again.
bloodbiter: (that's about the millionth baby head)

[personal profile] bloodbiter 2017-09-19 02:46 am (UTC)(link)
There are definitely steps that we can all take to be safer. I've been wondering about setting up some kind of patrol to make sure nothing strange is happening during the night... But given what happened to Jean and Caren, I would want to make sure we choose people who are able to keep a calm mind.
perpend: (☂ puttin' on the ritz)

[personal profile] perpend 2017-09-19 02:49 am (UTC)(link)
I don't know. That's a noble idea, but... considering Jean's death was an accident, patrols might lead to another confrontation. I'd rather not have to put someone else to death for something like that, not again.
bloodbiter: (fuck you and your sensitive ass)

[personal profile] bloodbiter 2017-09-19 02:50 am (UTC)(link)
It's not a perfect idea, certainly. I simply worry what the alternative might hold. We can urge people to stay in their rooms, but...

[Her tone betrays that she doesn't have faith that would work.]
perpend: (☂ to look like gary cooper)

[personal profile] perpend 2017-09-19 02:53 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe that's all we can do. I don't know what else there is to do.

Maybe a few people could offer some sort of self-defense training for those who don't have it?
bloodbiter: (i'm the only one who can walk)

[personal profile] bloodbiter 2017-09-19 02:55 am (UTC)(link)
We can explore and learn more about this place. We can take every action that isn't foolish to make sure that those who brought us here will pay for it.

[A sigh.]

...I would be glad to do so, if it comes to that. I know nothing of hand to hand combat, but I have some skill in swordplay. More importantly, I know how to keep myself safe. I could show the same to others.
perpend: (☂ puttin' on the ritz)

[personal profile] perpend 2017-09-19 02:57 am (UTC)(link)
That would be good enough.

I know some basic self-defense, enough to be able to teach people how to ward off an attacker. Of course, that's assuming they don't have the means to quickly overpower someone, but maybe it could buy someone a little bit of time.

I'd want to hope no one else will be attempted to attack someone else, but...
bloodbiter: (remember to feed yourself and stay hot)

[personal profile] bloodbiter 2017-09-19 02:59 am (UTC)(link)
I will offer it soon, then. I will see if I can find anyone who is well versed in combat to join our cause, too.

[A frown.]

I do worry that we may be training a potential murderer, but - it is more important to be certain that those with no experience will know how to keep themselves safe.
perpend: (☂ puttin' on the ritz)

[personal profile] perpend 2017-09-19 10:39 pm (UTC)(link)
Maybe if we keep it just to defense... ways to disarm or stun someone. But you're right, that's a risk we'll be taking.
bloodbiter: (that's about the millionth baby head)

[personal profile] bloodbiter 2017-09-19 11:38 pm (UTC)(link)
[She nods.]

Keeping it to defense is an excellent idea. It should be safer than the alternative.
