[ WEEK SIX ]

WEEK SIX

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.

On the pinboard in the railroad station, three posters have been chosen at random to list under the "Most Wanted" sign. Any character that passes the board by today can spot them, faces posted for all to see. This week's Most Wanted are:

MOST WANTED
• Damian Wayne
• Natalie Goodman
• Percy Jackon

[ As of today, Rintaro Okabe seems to be missing. ]

[ In general sheriffing manners, the Sheriff can be found all over town throughout the week. Sometimes bringing in supplies to the shops and restocking the inventory. At other times, sweeping the floor over at the homestead and taking stock of the animals.

But mostly, sitting in his rocking chair and carving pieces of wood while chewing tobacco. ]

[ Today the door of the cinema is wide open. In front of it is a pile of 40 different corpses -- all the participants of this current round of the game. Anyone who looks is likely to find their own corpse packed amongst the masses.

On top of that, if the bodies of the past week (Ana, Chane, Claire, Diamond Dog, Eliot, Elizabeth, Harry, Russell, Sara, Sei, Yuna) haven't been dealt with yet -- they will be dumped on the pile too. ]

...
[As always, the Hero Club request box sits in the hotel lobby where everyone will be able to see it. It's as pristinely put-together as it was the day it was first set here; any flaw or sign of wear has been dutifully maintained over the past month-ish.

The Hero Club membership list says, Russell, but that doesn't mean what it used to anymore.

The Hero Club membership list says, Ana Amari, but there's nothing to be done for that now.

The Hero Club membership list says, Tarvek Sturmvoraus, but that ended a while ago.

The Hero Club membership list says, Yuna Yuki. There's a flower sticker beside the name to cover up some graffiti.

The Hero Club request box sits in the hotel lobby where everyone will be able to see it, but the declaration that it will be checked twice each day is one more broken promise now.]

Monday

[Milla is in the post office today! she is tucking something extremely colorful into every person's mailbox, even those who are dead. she also still looks like her body might fall apart any second now, but you know, this is important!]

[there's a chicken from the homestead following her around as she works. its name is Felix. please be nice]

[to anyone who comes into the post office to check their mailboxes she'll give a slight nod in greeting, but she won't say anything out loud]

Monday, morning

[Damian helps get rid of forty bodies that look and feel exactly like the rest of them, alive and dead.

He's scared the closer they get to the bottom, the more likely he's going to see the body of his father.]

Monday, evening

[He's sitting on the dock by the watering hole with his knees drawn up. Beside him is a black and white cat, flopped lazily back against his hip and stretching its leg high up so it can clean the calf of it dutifully.

In one hand is the light green bookmark Yuna left him. He's twirling it idly around and around with his thumb and two fingers, but his gaze is distantly looking out over the water.]

Tuesday, morning

[In the graveyard, there's cherry blossoms on Yuna's grave.]

Edited (i forgot to add something) 2017-02-20 18:15 (UTC)

[noct is definitely looking a bit more unkempt this week. clean as he may be, he doesn't seem nearly as concerned that his hair isn't properly gelled (in fact, it's getting a bit too long to even style it properly), and some of those signs that he's not quite a kid show in a minimal amount of scruff patching in on his face.

he's fine? sure. either way, it's a bit of a shift from how he'd been taking care of himself in previous weeks.

(he's still dressed entirely in black, though, go figure.)]

monday, afternoon;

[noct is in the post office, prodding around a couple of the mailboxes—and retrieving his bookmark.

or, that's how it starts, but before he leaves, he ends up kind of just leaning against a wall and sinking to the floor, putting his hand on umbra's head and petting him gently.]

Never thought I'd say that the quiet's too much, right? [he's talking to umbra, but the implication is clear—too many people are dead. but despite that, there's a little bit of resolve in his tone; it's not brooding or depressed, but an air of determination that seems to accompany it, betraying the words a bit.]

monday, evening;

[now is when he's brooding, sitting on the porch of one of the buildings outside. his legs are stretched in front of him.

in his left hand, he's holding yuna's bookmark. in his right, he clenches sara's sword.

just feel free to sit next to him, or judge him, or whatever. he's having A Moment.]

whenever;

[he can be found in a few places through the days. sometimes it's the watering hole, even though the idea of catching fish where they pulled up two bodies is unappealing.

sometimes, it's out on the homestead, caring for the animals and making sure that they're fed and getting a bit of love.

...and sometimes he's just kind of sitting somewhere napping, because he needs 800 naps. it's fine.]

[ Unlike previous weeks, which have mostly included her rolling really hard ever since Riku died, this week, Xion is very subdued. She doesn't really seem to get up to very much! She spends a lot of time in the library and the kitchen, almost to the exclusion of all else. ]

monday;

[ Except for some time on this day, in which she spends hours in the graveyard. A lot of this time is spent by Seizaburo's grave; the rest, by Yuna's. Mostly she just whiles away the time in thought, or reads a book; though she does take the time to pull out a rulebook, and tear out a blank page. On small pieces of this page she seems to draw something, and leave little folded up notes on the graves she visits.

For whatever reason, she has a wooden flute with her, painted blue. Sometimes she keeps it in her lap, but most of the time it sits at her side, untouched. ]

tuesday;

[ Cooking! It's taken weeks of lessons and some self-teaching, but Xion has actually gotten pretty good at cooking by now. So what this means for this week is:

By midday Tuesday there are little wrapped up bundles of cookies in front of most people's rooms. (Mostly the ones she's aware of that, like. Still have people.) There's no name attached or anything, but it's probably not too hard to figure out who'd get up to shenanigans like this? Anyway, she'll leave any cookies she has left over in the lounge with a little note that says Take as many as you like! Again, unsigned. But maybe you saw her doing all this, or maybe you just guessed she's the culprit. Either way, you can find her in the kitchen most of the day. ]

MONDAY | POPULATION SIGN

[ Today, Will can be found standing in front of the population sign for a long time before just sort of going -- ]

... This is more than I expected.

[ He doesn't have much faith in Whole Ass, apparently. ]

TUESDAY | KITCHEN

[ Today, Will can be found in the kitchen, leaning against the countertop and eating potato chips. Greasy, terrible things that were probably processed and disgusting. He looks pretty happy to do it. Later, he will be found eating candy. Honestly, he's just here to eat crap food because Hannibal keeps making gourmet dishes and it's weird. Sometimes he feeds things to Winston during bites. ]

WEDNESDAY | WATERING HOLE

[ Today, Will can be found sitting cross-legged at the edge of the dock and sighing. He hasn't fished here since the corpse stew happened and he's been pretty annoyed about it since. Why did someone ruin the lake? Of all things, you could have left the lake alone.

But, at least he has a book in his lap and a dog by his side. That's peaceful enough, right? ]

WILDCARD

[ Alternative scenarios you can find Will in: not drinking, sleepwalking, generally just wandering around with his dog. ]

[ On Thursday, just like the Thursday before, there seems to have been a delivery. ]

[ When everyone wakes up on Thursday morning (or around 5AM, at least), they'll find Damian Wayne currently locked up in the stocks. There's no lock keeping him in place but no matter what, the wooden stocks don't seem to budge. Looks like he's just stuck there for a while. ]
