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

[sanguinairy]

Exactly that.

[And all those medicines that are entirely useless... Thanks castle!!]

Well, at least we've been able to clean it up a bit.

[concasse]

Did you?

With just soap and water?

[I MEAN that's all Sanji uses in the kitchen, there's not a lot of disinfectants in Fairy Tale Castle, but the chef still sounds impressed]

[sanguinairy]

A little alcohol too, I think.

[WHEN IN DOUBT just pour vodka on it.]

Otherwise, since the disinfectants were in the infirmary and none of us are sure if it's safe to use...

[concasse]

Really surprised we haven't run out of alcohol yet.

[The castle knows the important stuff to keep stocked]

But yeah, it's a good point... Not sure how I feel about everyone having access to shit that would probably kill us if we weren't careful, to be honest...

[sanguinairy]

It makes me a little worried...

[If they run out are they all just going to die of blood poisoning within like 5 days... Seems likely.]

It might be a good idea to throw away all of the medicines and liquids and things like that.

[concasse]

Hmm...

[Sanji is obviously considering that.

... But then slouches with his brows knit in displeasure.]

If I thought just doing that would be enough to stop anyone from killing, I would.

[sanguinairy]

[There's a little laugh, though the humor behind it is more dry than anything.]

It would make things a bit less convenient for them, at least.

[heres 2 u for that logic steph]

[concasse]

... True.

[perking up a bit at the idea now. Souji why do you give him such questionable ideas]

Especially if we don't know how to use 'em, they're better discarded than used.

[sanguinairy]

[IT'S WHAT HE'S HERE FOR!! But he'll nod in any case.]

Considering the reactions I've heard from those who've taken the medicine, it's better for us not to find out how to use them anyway.

[concasse]

... Someone actually took them?

[Wow that's... that's a terrible decision.]

[sanguinairy]

Several people, I believe...

[This castle is a castle of bad decision-making.]

[concasse]

[JUDGING EVERYONE]

The killers don't need any extra help, guys...!

[sanguinairy]

Well, we shouldn't have any more problems now. ...Hopefully.

[HOPEFULLY. DON'T LET HIM DOWN, CASTLE.]
