WEEK 2: April 8th - April 12th

[cartesio]

Second Week

Seven days have passed. Quite peaceful days, almost too peaceful. The town has welcomed you, excited to see tourists for the first time in many, many, many years. Some may have liked the peace, others may have been annoyed by it, but it was undeniable Cartesio seemed like such a nice and safe place it was hard to believe you had been told to kill each other.

But the threat is still up in the air. What's more: how much patience does the Sergeant have left?

Every time you take a look into the Lodge, you see the Sergeant. Lately he's looking more and more annoyed. Even though you can't see his face, you can feel he's getting frustrated. How long will it be before he lashes out and does something about these peaceful days?

Nobody in the town could suspect the harrowing times that'd befall Cartesio.

When you wake up on Sunday, you'll find new maps in the map rack and brochures on the table, showing places you hadn't noticed in the town before. Enjoy!

[HEY SUP JUGHEAD, Kino will walk over (persuader now holstered!) with a thin metal sheet thingy.]

This... isn't part of a projector, is it?

[burgerprince]

Nope. It's a key.

[How the hell it gets stuck in a projector, he doesn't know.

He holds it up, then flips it in his hand.]

What've you got there?

[quickpersuader]

I'm not sure. It's a thin piece of metal with a design on it.

[Kino can... generally figure out mechanics unless they're super advanced, but definitely does not have enough familiarity to place any random given part.]

Maybe the lines are significant for something?

[burgerprince]

Some kind of abstract art? Where there's a deeper meaning.

[Probably not.]

[quickpersuader]

[Praise the funyarinpa.]

How about the projector? Can you tell me a little about how it works?

[Also is there anything else notable about it now that the key has been pulled out?]

[cartesio]

[Other than how old and in need of repairs this projector is? Apparently not. The reels Nine and Dazai insert later are a different matter, though]

[burgerprince]

I can give you a crash course if they let us back in here after this.

[A completely sincere offer. Let him show you the world of film, Kino.]

[quickpersuader]

Sure. It'll give us both something to do.

[silvertongueheir]

It seems like a filter of some sort, though I am unsure of the pattern's significance. I don't think I've seen it anywhere else yet. Perhaps one of those other reels has a clue?
