 CURRENT POPULATION: 14
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 robowest. |
SEIZABURO KAMIYA
Mister Barnham,
I suppose I owe you an explanation.
When I said that I fell asleep near the baths by accident, that was a lie. In truth, I stayed there on purpose, hoping that someone would see me so that they would back up my alibi. That someone was you, and though you said what you believed to be true, my dishonesty forced you to support a liar.
Worse than that, you even comforted me when I was overcome by my own guilt. I might even have confessed if not for you... Mister Auditore might still be alive, if so. I used you not once but twice.
████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████ I would like to help you, no matter how little it is I can do from this side.
If this is acceptable, and if you do not mind if I write to you again, please let me know.
I'd still like to visit Labyrinthia someday.

Sensei,
I hope you're doing well out there. I'm also doing well, where I am.
████████████████████████████████████
(That was a joke. I'm aware that such a thing would normally be impossible, ███████████████████████████████████████████████.)
Nevertheless, thank you for the time you spent trying to help me. There's no denying that you saved my life, and you've saved many others, as well. I'm sorry that my own stupidity ended up getting me killed despite what you did to save me before, but perhaps this was how things were meant to be. I've been told for years that my recklessness will be the death of me, after all - those who told me so here were hardly the first.
Sometimes there is no fighting fate, no matter how hard we struggle against it.
...that being said, you are a man of many talents, some of which are known only to yourself (and to your soulmate, I'm sure. Say hello to him for me!). █████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████
Thank you for the work that you did, the encouragement you gave me, and the things that you did not say although you could have. I'll write to you again next week, if you would like that.

JASON
Mister Jason,
There's a lot that I could say about the place where I am now, but It would probably be censored. It isn't so bad, though. ████████████████████████
It's probably Obvious by now that I can't say that I'm sorry for what I did, nor can I say that I wouldn't do it again. After all, I got exactly what I wanted out of it. Is that callous of me to say? It would probably be more callous to say that having spoken with Mister Keyes now that he has decided to act fully as himself, I Regret it even less, but it's the truth. I think all of you are safer without him on your side.
I am sorry for not being honest with you, though. I should not have let you comfort me when I was only crying because of guilt that I deserved to feel. ████████████████████████████████████████████████
██████████████████████████████████████████████ Please look after Miss Xion, Mister Percy, and Shinnosuke for me, and do a better job of doing what's best for them than I could have. There may be hard choices that you must make, but you're a strong person, and I'm sure you'll do what's necessary no matter what it Entails.
I truly believe that Miss Xion, Shinnosuke, you, and Mister Percy can figure out a way to free all of us from this game. If you Receive information from us, please share what you receive with them. I hope that they will also share what they receive with you.
I and all of the others on this side will be relying on you.

PERCY + SHINNOSUKE
Mister Percy,
I'm sorry I didn't make it To our training session. █████████████████████████████████████████████████████ Maybe someday we'll meet again and be able to spar for real.
█████████████████████████████████████
I'm sure you're wondering why I wrote to you out of Everyone I could have chosen. I'll be the first to Admit that although I greatly admired both you and Miss Annabeth, we unfortunately weren't as well-acquainted as I would have hoped. The truth is, I'm still hoping that we can be friends, even if the only way we can talk now is through these letters.
████████████████████████████████████
Aside from that...
██████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████
And to that End, I should tell you that I believe in you. There will undoubtedly be people on this side who are trying to pass information to you. Should you receive any, I hope you will share it with Shinnosuke, Miss Xion, and Mister Jason. █████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████
I really do believe that Miss Xion, Shinnosuke, Mister Jason, and you can save us.
We'll be waiting to see all that accomplish. We trust you.
Seizaburo Kamiya
P.S.
If you wouldn't mind it, I'd appreciate it if you could read the next paragraph to Shinnosuke. Please feel free to imitate me as much as you would like, up to and including giving him a little smack if he acts like a jerk. Thank you!
Shinnosuke, you're a real jerk, you know that? Calling Me a moron. ██████████████████████████████████████████████ I would hit you, If I could do that from here. I'll do what you suggested, but only if you promise to be nice and cooperate with Mister Percy, Miss Xion, and Mister Jason, Even if you get the urge to be rude. You could really stand to learn to let people in, you know? Share with them. Let them share with you. I know you don't like other people, but I think Miss Xion, you, Mister Jason, and Mister Percy could be a good team if you capitalize on every resource you have. Write to me again, please. It's nice to see your words, even if I can't hear your voice.
XION
Miss Xion,
I've been trying to write this letter since the day of the stampede, and I still don't know where to begin. ██████████████████████████████████████████████████████████
The first thing I want to say is that I'm so very, very sorry. I didn't want to leave you. If something like that was possible to survive, I would have done everything in my power to do so. You deserve to have people who will support you wherever you are - and now the best I can do is try to support you from here.
The second thing I want to say is that... I'm sorry, again. By now, I'm sure you and EVERYONE else knows that I was a bandit. You were right that you and I both wanted the same thing, but the methods I've employed have left blood on my hands, whether I was the one to pull the trigger or not. In participating in such a thing, I feel as though I have let you down.
You have no reason to listen to a request from me after what I did and how I left you, but please, if possible, do whatever it takes to survive without bathing your own hands in blood until the very end. It would be gratifying to know that it's possible for someone to win this game without taking someone else's life.
To do this, please ██████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████
I hope that we'll see each other again someday. And when that time comes, it is my fervent hope that we can both greet each other with a smile.
Seizaburo Kamiya
