CHAPTER 2 ; MINGLE

[themodsgrimm]

The Story Continues... CHAPTER 233 Narrators Remain ; There’s nothing to shake up the feeling of helplessness and betrayal quite like some renovations. Residents in the castle will find a gentle rumble stirring them out of their sleep on Monday morning, and if they choose to find the source of the noise, they’ll notice a newly constructed staircase on the second floor. It stretches up, up, up and will guide the Narrators to a third floor with all types of new installments to the castle. Go ahead, crack open a book, try your hand at some potion mixing. What could possibly go wrong? Just as last week, the morning that the dining hall opens, the tapestries of Ann Takamaki, Soo-won, and Dave Strider will all suddenly catch flame from the bottom, burning up and up until the entire tapestry is gone. Anyone who ventures outside will also find that the scenery has warmed up considerably. Snow no longer dusts the ground, but rather the warm sun and pleasant chirping of birds greet you to the castle grounds. The area has also been expanded, a new jousting grounds available for play and recreation. A set of stables stands next to the grounds, but anyone who ventures inside will find only hear the occasional, phantom whinny of a horse and – find some rather large feathers? Interesting. Finally, partners will find themselves unable to rest peacefully yet another week. While no paranoia creeps over anyone’s shoulders, when night falls and they find themselves sleeping, they’ll instead see dreams – or rather, some memories of their partner. Apparently the Crafters would rather that you all get to know each other sooner, rather than later. Hopefully you don’t see anything you’re not meant to. Welcome to Week 2, everyone! Today we've introduce new castle locations and brought a new round of partner effects, so please review those, including the Outside section on the Locations page. If you'd like to have your characters interact with the laboratory, please feel free to PP the mods! We would also like to remind players to submit all of their Prologue PCs and new PCs at the Private Conversations page and review the weekly ooc notes for important details in the castle. Something exciting will be arriving on Wednesday, June 20th so keep your eyes peeled for that as well. full navigation. locations taken (statuses) stories (profiles) info & faq wishing well private conversations

W-What did I do to deserve this!?

[randori]

You refused to accept my love.

[ He throws his arms out wide ]

I'll give you one last chance.

[axilium]

[inside, he wonders what he did to deserve this. the answer is "a lot", but still.]

Don't you think you're being a little drastic here...!?

[randori]

[ Nope. ]

I'm giving you the luxury of choice because we're friends. Now: either you hug me or I hug you.

Which is it going to be?

[axilium]

[.........]

The second one if I must, but could you... drop the sword first...?

[randori]

[ The sword goes clattering onto the floor; it's a supposedly unbreakable sword, so it just scratches up the floor and he doesn't worry about messing up the blade. Arms stretched out wide...! If Belph hasn't stopped running yet and accepted his fate, Natsuo will definitely be able to catch up now that he's thrown the weight off ]

[axilium]

[he stops running because he resigns himself to his fate...]

[randori]

[ Perfect. Belph gets the full brunt of Natsuo's full body tackle straight at his torso, arms around Belph's to pin his arms to his side and not even give the opportunity to hug back, all he can do is stand there and withstand the bone-crushing vice grip of a hug as long as he can. Ganba. ]

[axilium]

[uhhhhh.]

This isn't... secretly a murder attempt, is it...?

[randori]

[ Two more seconds of agony, and then he lets go, hands gripping either of Belph's sleeves. ]

It's not! I put all my love into it! Did you feel it?!

[axilium]

Y-Yeah... I deeeefinitely felt it...
