trustfell | Week 3.

WEEK 3
Two more people are dead. Byakuren Hijiri has been murdered and Undyne has been executed. That brings us up to four deaths and twenty-five remaining Participants.

You're doing well.

Take all of Saturday to rest and sleep. You've earned it. On Sunday morning, the clock chimes the hour at seven o'clock. With no more bodies to be discovered, it seems you're safe for the time being. That said, you'll be feeling a little groggy when you wake up; it seems you've remembered something else. Or was that another really bizarre dream?

Like last week, there's a new floor to explore. A reward for your efforts, of course. There's something else new, however, and as you approach the foyer you might hear the beautiful sound of... chickens? Chickens. Those are definitely chickens. It looks like Tabby's petition has worked, you have chosen chickens.

Perhaps even more important are the rule changes, effective immediately. You might want to take note of them.

PARTICIPANTS REMAINING: 25

SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY

[ that is a very good question, logan. ]

That's good, though. We don't need a bunch of functional guns in here.

No, of course not. As long as the parts don't fall from the machine we should be fine.

[But so many of us have either really terrible luck or really godly luck, depending on how you want to look at it.]

Given the luck people have had with that machine, I'm sure more parts will fall out sooner or later.

[ I mean seriously, it's a miracle nobody has been killed using a weapon that came from that thing. ]

At least it's an unlikely murder weapon, since it requires the gun, the parts and the knowledge to fix it.

Exactly. There are far more worrying weapons that have fallen out.

[THE PICKAXE... why on earth was there a pickaxe in there, who even does that]

Yeah, like the arsenic, or the pickaxe.

...At least with the pickaxe we could rule out some people.

[So many of you are tiny, how would you use that thing.]

Like me. There's no way I could use that thing for murder.

Right. Even among those of us who could possibly use it, that... would certainly be a messy death.

[SO HOW MANY OF US WOULD BE OKAY WITH GOING TO TOWN ON SOMEONE WITH A PICKAXE BECAUSE YIKES]

[ WHAT IF CASE 5 INVOLVES A PICKAXE ]

Yup. It'd be a lot messier than what happened to Hijiri-san's head. Not the most pleasant way to die.

[WELL AT LEAST THIS TIME IT WON'T INVOLVE A CANNIBAL]

Ah, that's...

[super gross tbh]

I imagine it wouldn't be.

[CHIE PLEASE...]

[ YEAH... AT LEAST WE HAVE NO DISNEYS TO BISECT OR CANNIBALS TO FUCK UP CASE 5 WITH... ]

Anyway, what do you think of that incentive we got earlier?

[WHAT IF CASE 5 ISN'T A SHITSHOW????]

Ah... that.

[From the sound of it he could probably just leave it there and it would explain everything. Logan doesn't look pleased at all.]

I'm certain someone will act on it. I thought last week's was bad, but this one...

[Well, it's definitely something people would be fine killing for.]

Someone's going to die before the end of the week. [ She's.... not very optimistic. ]

...Yes, I imagine so. Someone will decide that the risk is worth it.

I'm sure it's a very tempting offer to some, being able to go back and change things.

[ She sighs, shaking her head, her fingers fiddling with the button on her shirt. ]

I hope the murder will be possible to solve this time, too.

I hope so as well. The more of these trials we go through, the more difficult this is going to be.

[And any one of them could be the next murderer. This is so fucked up.]

At least we'll get another floor with each trial... I wonder, is it supposed to be some sort of reward for surviving?

That's what I've been assuming. It's disgusting.

[At least they didn't get the shooting range directly after Reaver died!!]

[ ...That would've been tactless... ]

And we've gotten memories back after each trial, too. I doubt that's a coincidence. Another reward for surviving?

...Memories...

[nope totally just dreams.]

I'm not sure. I would assume so.

[He sounds really distracted though.]

You don't think they're memories, Logan?

No.

[That answer is immediate.]

Not in my case, at least. They can't be. It's impossible.

Okay. In my case, they're definitely memories - I got fours years' worth of 'em after the first trial. I thought I was sixteen before that, but now I'm mentally twenty.

Ah... That's still off from the age listed on your profile, isn't it?

[Because for some reason you're not twelve. How is this possible.]

Yep. I was hoping I'd remember the remaining four years after the second trial, but I only got a few days' worth of memories back this time.
