CHAPTER 5 ; MINGLE

[themodsgrimm]

The Story Continues... CHAPTER 526 Narrators Remain ; Now, what are the odds that this week will be as quiet as the last one? … look, we have to at least humor the idea, don’t we? The rumbling that awakens Narrators on this lovely Monday morning is – larger. It’s louder, it’s more intense, and it lasts longer, like one final shove. Once it concludes, the castle is quiet, almost tired in its stillness. Should anyone wander into the dining hall this week, they will find that none of the tapestries burn up in true testament that no ink had been spilt and no Narrators have left us. Should you choose to explore the grounds and find the new additions to the castle – you’ll likely be surprised to say the very least. In the interest of recreation, the pumpkin patch has been opened – and you’re more than welcome to see if you fare better in a pumpkin carriage better than our Cinderella did. What’s the harm in giving it a try? Or if you’re more interested in paying your respects, the shrines of the Tiger and the Dragon are both open. Shall you see what happens if you try to leave an offering? You know what they say – nothing ventured, nothing gained. Or maybe you’ll find your friends. Your dearly departed, delightfully preserved friends in the morgue. Reunions always bring a tear to the eye, don’t they? As if the sky mourns with you, Narrators will find that on Tuesday afternoon, it will begin to rain. It pours and it pours and it pours… and it will show no sign of stopping until Friday evening. Plan accordingly. Stay dry. Finally, partners had best get comfortable with the idea of touching into the spirit of generosity. They'll feel compelled to be kind to their partner, including possibly making or giving them a present. Isn't that just the sweetest? This feeling will dwell until the beginning of Thursday night's curfew. Welcome to Week 5, everyone! Hopefully you all enjoyed your break week and are ready for your regularly scheduled murder! We would also like to remind players to submit all of their Chapter 4 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, July 11th so keep your eyes peeled for that as well. full navigation. locations taken (statuses) stories (profiles) info & faq wishing well private conversations

[at least SOMEONE in this castle approves of Akechi!1 cat has great taste]

I-- yes, I suppose it is a cute cat.

[he holds his (still gloved) hand out to the cat, but doesn't pet it, because he remembers how it reacted last time]

Where did you find it?

[sanguinairy]

[Why don't you want to wave at akechi, cat!!!! Cat does have great taste outside of that though, 10/10 - and he'll also hold still so Akechi can receive his cat blessing.]

Very cute. [He loves his new adopted cat child??] But it's more accurate to say that it finds me, I suppose. It just comes and goes as it pleases, but it stops by my room every now and then.

[He just decided to kidnap it along for a stroll in the gardens today.]

[pathcrossed]

[The cat still does not especially like the glove-- but it sort of headbutts Akechi's hand with its head in a little gesture of acceptance. It doesn't rub against it to demand pets, but it's content enough with his presence.

Still content enough to be held, too, meowing as if to confirm everything Souji's said.]

[doublecrows]

[he doesn't know what he did to earn this cat's approval, but he's glad!!]

You must have done something to befriend it, then.

[sanguinairy]

[AKECHI HAS BEEN BLESSED. Souji laughs, amused.]

Well, I do love cats. Maybe it can tell?

[Despite some particularly unfortunate rumors about black cats being bad omens for tuberculosis patients, hm!!]

I'm glad that the animals here all seem to be well taken care of, though. With how many there are now, it's a little worrisome.
