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

[ Terrible, really. We're going to go into the trial and everyone will be seeping blood everywhere through their makeshift bandages.

In any case he notices her unsteady breathing, and his mouth curves faintly into the slightest thin-pressed frown. ]

Kyouka. Please. [ Whatever concern or otherwise he has in him closes off, leaving him eerily calm and very still, posture entirely measured. Panic, or fear, or whatever this is, will do no one here any good. ] Breathe with me.

Whatever happened will have happened. But it is not happening right now.

[nivation]

It can't have happened here. They shouldn't be here, but I saw—

[ She closes her eyes and tries to breathe like Ion requested. She's unsteady because whatever willpower she used to keep from seeming too hurt has broken. ]

It's not possible.

[fonlines]

Then it was a trick. Nothing more than that. If it's not possible, then it doesn't matter.

[ He's still stemming the bleeding as best as he can, in any case. Another wrapping or two and, well, that'll be all that he, personally, could do for her.

His tone remains very flat, and very measured. ]

They play games here. Cruel ones, ones based off your memories or other things that you've known of.
