robowest | [ WEEK FOUR ]

WEEK FOUR

CURRENT POPULATION: 28

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!

After all, there's nothing wrong with the town today and you might just want to savor it while it lasts.

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

If you aim right at them they're going to grab it and run away, and I will blame you.

Maybe they'd trip and blow up regardless.

We would be right by them. Not much of a consolation, in my opinion.

Give me some credit. I'd throw it at them before they got that close.

[ Never mind he has no idea what the blast radius of this box is. ]

You think you could throw it that far?

[continues throwing shade nbd]

[ i am glad they are both taking their solemn task so seriously ]

Sure I could. I've got a great arm. Two of them.

Don't forget that one arm is still enough to punch you with.

[fight her harry]

Would you really punch someone carrying a box of explosives?

You did see me trying to pry it open on my own about ten minutes ago, right?

[She's probably joking. Maybe.]

Right. It's a good thing I came along when I did, hm?

[ harry stop ]

Whatever you want to believe. My hero, et cetera, et cetera.

[Dry as a desert.]

[ A snort of laughter before he decides he's probably been enough of a little shit for now. ]

Are you going to tell anyone? That we found these, I mean.

[She thinks that over for a moment before responding.]

Wouldn't that kind of defeat the point of tossing them into the lake?

I suppose that depends on who you'd tell. The camera, the bear trap, and now these. Think there's any connection?

[A small shrug.]

I've been kind of assuming it has to do with one of the roles, but maybe the Sheriff is just fucking with us as usual. Who knows.

Either is about as likely as the other, really. I'm just glad we're the ones who found them.

Yeah. Can you imagine if someone like Ash found them? Yikes. Super yikes.

Yeah, I don't really fancy being blown up by him. Or anyone else, for that matter.

Not very high on my lists of things I want to experience, either. In fact, I dare say it isn't on the list at all.

Still, at least it'd be over quickly. [ These are the sorts of pleasant things he thinks about while falling asleep. ] I mean...it's a reality we kind of have to prepare for, don't we? Being murdered in some sort of terrible way.

Jesus. Cheerful, aren't you?

[If she's honestly unsettled by the topic, she hides it well, at least.]

We don't have to prepare for it. Pretty sure there's no being prepared for that.

Like a ray of sunshine.

[ His attitude about death is kind of an occupational hazard. ]

An old friend once told me that "to the well-organized mind, death is but the next great adventure". I guess I've hung onto that.

Yeah. I for one am real ecstatic that I'm bound to get shot or worse at some point, it sounds super exciting. Glad you understand.

[A sigh, in and out.]

[ Quickly: ] That's not what I meant. I guess I'm just...a little used to be marked for death by now? Yeah.

[ and also so well-adjusted ]

Well, your life sure sounds happy.

[If there's a sliver of concern in her voice, he's probably imagining it. Yeah, definitely. She runs her hand through her hair.]

You could make it, you know. You seem smart enough.
