Week 8 - May 20th - May 24th

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?

[Trying is all they can do, really. Even though they're butting heads now and Keith is in no way in agreement with Sakura's pacifism here, he can acknowledge that she's doing her best. It's not something he would have acknowledged when he first took on leadership of Voltron, but even if he can acknowledge it now, that doesn't mean he appreciates it.

That said, it's not as though he's itching to kill either. It's simply the option that he thinks will be the surest way of getting the outcome he wants because he's not going to compromise on the safety of his entire universe as well as other universes, and he's fairly sure that the people running the show aren't going to compromise either.

When he speaks again, however, his tone is less harsh. Still no apology in sight that said.]

I'm not against trying to reason with them. But if that doesn't go anywhere, I also have to try.

[That's not a request for permission to act from Sakura or anyone else present in their group.]

We both want to protect what's important to us. Let's stay focused on that and how we're taking these guys down for now.
