Week 8 - May 20th - May 24th

[cartesio]

Last Week

With the weekend's latest tragedy, a strange mood has descended over Cartesio. What happened was unprecedented, and perhaps that's why the already decreasing hostility from the townsfolk comes to a complete halt. Could it be the strange circumstances? Bolin's desperate plea? Last week's peaceful Wednesday? Some combination? Whatever the reason, it's clear that the Sergeant's iron fist around the town has loosened. While the residents aren't jumping to interact with you, there's no graffiti, no new broken windows.

Cartesio is confused...but open to explanation, for perhaps the first time.

Still, while the town seems amiable, almost accepting again, there's little to chase away the knowledge that the Sergeant's tasks for you are near their end, and that means those without medals are doomed to their fate.

Or does it? After everything that's turned around, is it possible for you to claw your way out of here as well?

[Still wearing a black suit (don't ask), Keith's listening in on this conversation and add:]

Rebuild the police station as well.

[quickpersuader]

[She half turns towards Keith.]

...Think we should just pay to rebuild everything?

[marmoron]

Might as well.

[They have infinite cash for some reason. What else are they going to do with it at this point...]

Maybe build a few new houses.

[It's as close to acknowledging the bad outcome where they may not be able to leave at all as it gets for Keith.]

[quickpersuader]

[Plus it means more headaches for Sarge, maybe.]

You don't have to spare any expense. You could make them as comfy as you want.

[marmoron]

What a consolation.

[That's dry as hell, but he'll pull out his own card for this. Not that he needs to because they can just put all this on Kino's card, but...]

Always wanted to live in a pointlessly large house with an armory and a pool.

[quickpersuader]

You could have a big field for Cosmo to run around in, too... Pets?

Take Yakitori and collect any eggs she lays, maybe.

[marmoron]

Not sure how well they'd get along. Cosmo might eat Yakitori.

[A beat.[

Guess that'd add one thing you two would share in common then.

[quickpersuader]

[That's what a hen house is for- is what she would have said, but now he's getting a deadpan look.]

Do I even want to know the others...?

[marmoron]

[Just.. gonna tap his nose.]

[quickpersuader]

[Indignant frown.]
