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!

[burgerprince]

You sure it wasn't a moment of personal revelation?

[Joking. Mostly.]

[robitussin]

...Yeah, I'm pretty sure.

[She shrugs.]

I was going to wear it to something back home, but I'm pretty sure it's not going to pan out. Not sure why it's here.

[burgerprince]

Sarge just wants to give you the prom night you skipped out on.

[If he had to guess what the dress was for.]

[robitussin]

[She makes an exaggerated gagging motion, shaking her head afterwards.]

He can keep it. I don’t do dances.

[burgerprince]

And miss out on the singular most life-changing experience of your life?

[Can you feel the sarcasm, Natalie?]

[robitussin]

[An amused scoff.]

Right. That's when I transform into the person I was always meant to be, and everything. How could I forget?

[burgerprince]

They all award you as prom queen and then you've really made it. Life's just downhill from there.

[robitussin]

Yeah. I'm totally the prom queen kind of person, just like you're practically a quarterback type.

[burgerprince]

Yeah, I just love perpetuating a toxic masculine mentality whilst also trying really hard to ignore how homoerotic my own sport is.

[robitussin]

And I'm a huge fan of contributing to the myth that the only value I can add to society is based on how I look and what I wear. You're in good company.

[burgerprince]

Clearly we have to hook up and get into a premature, unfulfilling marriage because that's just what we're meant to do.

[robitussin]

Gotta prepare for our incredibly bitter divorce in our mid-20s because we were too stupid to go for a pre-nup somehow.

[burgerprince]

Then decide on custody for the child that’s going to resent us both for our life decisions.

[robitussin]

I mean, despite having a much smaller income and having relied on you for most of my financial needs up until this point, I'm a woman, so we all know how this court is going to rule.

Cw:alcoholism

[burgerprince]

And I’ll blame and resent you for that when I become an alcoholic as if you physically forced me to pick up that bottle, and then wonder why I never get to see the kid.

[robitussin]

Match made in heaven, right here.
