GRAVEYARD

[retellers]

GRAVEYARD Well, that sucked. But no matter what your death was like—whether it was something peaceful or traumatic, you'll find yourself waking in a completely white room on the floor. Small and empty, there isn't anything else there besides an open door to walk through. But before you do that, you'll probably notice that whatever injuries you may have had, including whatever may have been the death blow, are now gone. That's exciting. Stepping out of the room, it seems that you're in a large... house? with three different floors. Everything from floor, ceiling to furniture is completely white, except for the drawings that are plastered to the walls in each room. These are all colorful, drawn in colored pencils and crayon, and resemble a child's drawing. The other notable thing are the windows. While they're present all around the building, looking out of them only shows TV static. Besides that, everything is furnished with the absolute bare minimum of each room. The first floor is all typical common areas one would find in a house. There's a kitchen, living room area, laundry room, dining room, and a main hallway where the stairs are. There are also helpful drawings in these rooms that show the rooms much more lavishly decorated than they actually are. There's a door that appears to be the way to exit the building, but it leads you to somewhere that's not the front lawn. The second floor consists of nothing but twenty bedrooms. Each room has one queen sized bed, an empty dresser, and an attached bathroom with only a sink, toilet, and shower. Like the first floor, each bedroom has drawn pictures that show it looking much more lavish than it actually does. Thanks for nothing, artist! The third floor only has two rooms. One appears to be a home office with nothing but a desk and two chairs, one behind it and one in front of it. On the desk are some blank pieces of paper along with crayons, as well as a written note next to them that says PLEASE DRAW THE PREFERRED ANIMAL :). It looks like this is how you ask for a meeting with a Leader. The other room is much larger, and it's completely empty save for the many drawings lining its walls— in fact, the walls are covered in them, much more than in any other room. On closer inspection, though, it seems like these aren't actually drawings? The papers seem to be showing scenes from the living area. Everything from inside the hotel to the areas beyond the bridge are visible here. However, when curfew hits on Thursday nights, they revert to being normal drawings! Except for the fact that they're all drawings of stick figures being murdered in various ways. Well. At least there's plenty of things to draw with, if you get bored. As of Week 3, each person has the ability to send messages on their PHS unlocked.

I'm supposed to be forgiving Emet for my murder, turning him into a toad isn't very forgiving.

[Even if it's tempting.]

Why Soo-won or Hansa, though?

[maidforservice]

[heehee. . .]

No wonder you're a priest.

[she sounds amused]

There's no particular reason for Master Hansa-- [that she is willing to say aloud] -- but I just believe Master Won would take it in stride. ♥

[lionson]

That sounds like the two of you have a history.

[maidforservice]

Oh. . .? I suppose that's right, you wouldn't know.

Master Won is the reason I am here in the first place. ♥

[lionson]

...THAT'S the guy who killed you?

[Wow they were tripping all over themselves that week too.]

[maidforservice]

[THEY WERE SO CLOSE AND THEN NOT SO CLOSE?? not that Sharon knows, she didn't get to watch her trial]

That's correct. Though I hold no ill-will against him.

It was I who put him in that difficult position in the first place.

[similar to Shiro and Emet-Selch, actually. . .! . . . which may be why she felt some kind of way about all the "we don't care about Shiro's killer since it seemed to be done in self-defense" talk at trial this weekend]

[lionson]

[Oh. Hm.]

Why'd you do it?

[No judgement, he's just curious to hear her reasoning.]

[maidforservice]

[folding her hands together again primly]

There are certain people in this world I would selfishly do anything for, Master Shiro.

[. . .]

Including take a life. Especially when doing so can return my lost memories of them.

[lionson]

Ah.

[He understands instantly.]

Apologies, then, that it didn't work out for you.

[maidforservice]

Heehee, it's quite all right.

[a bit wistfully]

I remembered my lady against last week. And I also knew the risks I was taking when I targeted Master Won that night.

[a mysterious smile]

I suppose you understand, yes?

[since he took a risk going after Emet-Selch]

[lionson]

Yeah, I do. Even if the circumstances were a little different, it's still the same result.

I'm sure it'll be alright, though. Especially if we manage to revive everyone.

[maidforservice]

[please don't remind her she has Anxiety about that]

It's going to take quite a bit of coordinating. The living are greatly limited in the information they can share, too.

[lionson]

Individually they are, yeah. But the chance to do this comes in pooling that knowledge with one person, who can coordinate everything.

[maidforservice]

Oh. . .?

Do you have a specific person in mind?

[lionson]

Soo-won comes to mind, because I already told him everything I know, and he knew way more beyond that. He knew that Goat, Rabbit, Wolf, and Fox all had one kill each, as of the last time we spoke.

Failing that, the living might need to work on figuring out who they all trust. Claude might not be a bad choice.

[maidforservice]

[OH THANK FUCK SOMEONE WHO KNOWS STUFF]

That's far more than what we were able to learn on this side of things. Was he able to tell you which team killed on which week?

[lionson]

No, but I might be able to help there. Flashing icon means your team killed that week, yeah? Well I'm on Wolf, and my PHS's icon for Wolf flashed the weekend we voted out Shima. So if Shima is Fox, then whoever killed Raven is Wolf.

[maidforservice]

. . . [aha]

Miss Ange le Carre.

Then in that case, Wolf's team must be safe.

[lionson]

...wait, did she kill twice?

[maidforservice]

She did.

[heehee]

She is responsible for Master Raven and Lady Sumire, it seems.

[lionson]

Damn.

Maybe it's better Emet got me then, because then whatever team he's on gets the kill credit, instead of wolf getting three.

I'm going to message Xie Lian and Soo-won, so in my message to Soo-won I can probably tell him that wolf's team needs no more kills. Though he might already know that, he gets information fast.

[maidforservice]

[and Sharon nods]

I'm going to tell Miss Ange the same, as well as reply to a message Master Rufus sent me last week. I also intend to update them both on the counts we have so far, just in case they have not heard the information yet themselves.

[lionson]

Good idea. We might need to get three or four kills in one week to finish off these numbers, though. How much time do we have left?

[maidforservice]

I don't know.

[I MEAN WE OOCLY KNOW, BUT. . .]

I wasn't under the impression we were under a strict time limit.

[lionson]

Other than 'everyone's dead', I guess. But drawing it out probably won't be too good for everyone's mental health either.
