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.

TEAM PINGS

[siblingless]

[Still eating sandwiches? Still eating sandwiches. Sumire has been tappy tapping away on her PHS for notetaking, and at some point will pipe up.]

Um, correct me if I'm wrong. But we have representation from four out of six teams here. Wolf, Fox, Swan and Goat. Most of us have seen the animal insignia on our PHS flash at some point as well, so... If each team truly needs to kill twice, then we need to discern which teams haven't fulfilled the conditions yet.

[She lifts her PHS a bit, in order to read.]

Laine-san and Raven-san confirmed that Goat-san's insignia flashed the week Goneril-san and Soo-won-san killed. Sharon-san also confirmed that Fox-san's insignia lit up the week Shima-san killed. I know for a fact that Solus-san and Carré-san are not members of Swan-san's team. Ichinose-san can confirm if she's available, but I'm sure no one on my team has killed yet. I'm going to use my letters to encourage them to take action. [Team Swan, please get your act together.] If there's anything I'm missing, please speak up.

[In other words, let's figure out whomst the fuck needs to kill? Thanks. Here's a handy dandy spreadsheet for ref.]

[maidforservice]

I can confirm that Fox's insignia did not flash this past week.

[. . .]

We need Master Virid's assistance with this task.

[VIRID PLEASE COME OUT OF HIDING]

[retellers]

[ no ]

[siblingless]

Huh? Has Viridian-san not confirmed his team yet...?

[maidforservice]

He hasn't. He seems to be quite a difficult one to locate, actually.

[ALSO DESPITE MY JOKING I DON'T WANT TO PUT MORE WORK ON POOR JAN SO I HAVEN'T ASKED FOR THREADS 😞 ]

[siblingless]

[... She sighs.]

We ought to find him. I understand if he's reticent to work with us, but... We need him.

[maidforservice]

We do. And I think he'll find that those of us here judge him less than he thinks we will.

[considering she]

[moved to murder the week after Virid because of what Virid had said about killing to regain memories]

[siblingless]

[A nod!!]

Exactly. [Though, she's not judging for different reasons.] He was ordered to kill Ichinose-san. I can't judge him for taking one life to save many.

[maidforservice]

. . . [smiles a little]

And here we all thought he was only acting to save his brother. . .

[virid :(]

[siblingless]

[Smiles as well! Significantly sadder, though.]

Mm... It seems like he doesn't care if others think negatively about him even when it's the furthest thing from the truth.

[laid]

I sent a message ta someone on the living side about the flashing who's on fox's team, so he aughta know if theirs flashed the Sunday that Sharon can't confirm.

[Either way, the living should know about the flashing if they don't already?]

[siblingless]

Thank you, Raven-san. I appreciate it.

[laid]

[I'm just gonna handwave that Sharon told them sharing the living teams was fine, so;]

Apparently we're fine sharin' the living's teams with each other, so I'll say it's Claude. And we've narrowed Ange down ta Wolf too, right?
[He slides over the list I added to the spreadsheet.]

I ain't much more help than that, though.

[siblingless]

Oh! I see. [Huh. She pauses, and then nods.] Then, if it's truly safe... Besides myself, the people on Swan-san's team are Sora-san, Hua Cheng-san, Taako-san, Akemi-san and Fiora-san.

[laid]

[What an assortment!]

Sounds like we got a job fer Hua Cheng then.
[None of the others seem that down for murder, in his limited experience.]

[siblingless]

[...

Quietly:]

Taako-san may do it. On Thursday afternoon, we... got into some trouble. And he killed someone so we could move on.

[laid]

Wh- Killed who?

[A SECRET BONUS MURDER?]

[siblingless]

A cheerleader.

[That explains nothing, Sumire.]

[tensecondsahead]

That's the only time it flashed. Goat still needs one more kill if we want to meet the requirement.

[siblingless]

Do we know anyone from Goat-san's team...? We ought to write them a message so they're aware of the conditions.

[tensecondsahead]

I don't, unfortunately.

[siblingless]

[Boo. She sighs, opening her mouth to say something — before she pauses.]

Ah... I just remembered something! Laine-san, could ask Goat-san if they've given red ribbons to members of your team?

[tensecondsahead]

Oh? Do you think that's something they've done?

[siblingless]

I don't know. But Kageyama-san's leader gave him a red ribbon to help him find the rest of his team.

[tensecondsahead]

Really? I can ask them about it, if I can find them.
