[ WEEK THREE ]

WEEK THREE

CURRENT POPULATION: 35

It's a rather quaint town when you get down to it. At least, that's what the Sheriff would argue. Warm and dry in the mornings and afternoons with a brisk coolness in the evenings. The perfect type of weather to just sit out on your rocking chair and observe the comings and goings.

... Of course, there's not much in the way of comings and goings when there aren't any actual people here to watch. Nevertheless, don't let that get you down! The town is your oyster and those roosters won't stop crowing until everyone's out of bed. Up and at 'em, rise and shine, it's time to make the day yours!

Except there is, perhaps, a few things amiss.



This post functions as the general mingle post for the week. Wanted Posters and other small events will be posted in top levels below. If there's any questions or requests, please send a PM or shoot a PP to [plurk.com profile] robowest.

Easier, harder, you can't even really say which it is if you can't count on the goal being right or consistent. Not gonna say the Sheriff's not misleading, and obviously sometimes he won't answer, but I don't think he'd straight-up lie to a direct question.

[ She shrugs. ]

Not really a huge fan of either, myself. I like my conflicts a lot simpler.
hydrokinetics: (Yeah right)

[personal profile] hydrokinetics 2017-02-02 08:18 pm (UTC)(link)
So you think maybe we're just not asking him the right questions? Because we're still pretty lost.

You're law and order basically, aren't you? [It's the impression he got.] A fan of the straight-forward without wiggle room.

[ Nisha snorts. ]

Never had it put quite that way before, but yeah, you could say that.

And yeah, maybe. I mean, there are definitely rules and roles going on here that not everyone is privy to. ...Like the Bandit thing. He seemed happy enough to explain that once we knew it existed.
hydrokinetics: (your train of thought's been derailed?)

The rulebook says the stuff about roles but not how many or what kind, and he won't exactly tell us that. The only reason he explained about the bandits is because we found one on accident. I don't know if we can wait to "accidentally" find the rest of these people. Not with the way things are going.

Not sure I'd call it accidental with the way he was flaunting it, but yeah, I get your meaning. If there's something that happens, we gotta make sure to ask if there's some role that would make someone do that. And the rules behind it.

[ She considers. ]

...For instance, Sheriff said Jason was "chosen" to be in the stocks. Could be there's a role who gets to pick someone for it. And that someone happened to take a look at the wanted posters.
hydrokinetics: (There's no reason)

[personal profile] hydrokinetics 2017-02-03 10:24 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, that probably wasn't supposed to happen. [He doesn't believe people should be dying, but at the same time he's pretty annoyed with how things with Higekiri went down. Now with the other bandit wandering free, they don't know who's next.]

See, that's the kind of thinking that makes more sense here. [He glances at the posters then.] Like...a hitman? [Wrong era, but sure.] So if that's true somebody from these posters will probably be in the stocks this week. We still don't know what purpose they serve anyway. The Sheriff moved Jason inside the station Thursday night last week.

Hal was pretty straight-forward last trial when we were asking the right questions. It's when we start hypothesizing that he gets weird.
