WEEK 3: April 15th - April 19th

[cartesio]

Third Week

The peaceful times are over. Moloch von Zinzer was murdered, and Nine was sentenced as his murderer. Everyone in Cartesio knows that.

Although life goes on, it seems the town of Cartesio isn't going to forget the tourists' transgressions. Not only they commited larceny in the cinema, they also murdered and executed in their town! It's no surprise their hospitality towards the visitors has cooled down considerably.

Not only they're maintaining a tense cordiality with them, they also have started talking behind the visitors' backs. All kinds of rumors are starting to sprout, yet nobody seems to be willing to say it to the tourists' faces. Talking directly to most passerby makes them distrustful, and nobody seems to want to be in close quarters alone with them.

It's only matter of time before the relationship between tourists and Cartesio starts degrading even further.

In the lobby of the motel there's a few more brochures, and the maps have been updated once again.

[Welcome to the third week! If you want to contact the Sergeant, please post here!. Also please remember to submit your activity check!]

[marmoron]

[....Alright, so one moment he was following some towns people around to see where all they were going and next he's randomly here. He missed this last time and as far as he's concerned this is potentially some new dangerous bullshit so his hands already reaching for a knife.]

What's happening,

[Glancing around at the others standing around.]

[clearities]

It's probably the Sergeant-san again... he did this last week, too.

[doublelammy]

Yeah, last week he dropped us off in the theater and had us break a bunch o' stuff n' solve puzzles to steal a thing.

He didn't even give us popcorn this time...

[marmoron]

...what were you guys supposed to steal?

[Not gonna question the priorities on the popcorn gripe.]

[doublelammy]

The big sign in the basement.

[marmoron]

And we're meant to ....what, get out of this? Get on the other side of the fence?

[Knife's still in hand, not putting it away just yet. He gives the area a scan.

How high is that fence anyway? Can he climb that thing?]

[clearities]

Maybe...I think the fence might be able to be climbed, too.

[cartesio]

[ The fence is eight feet tall. So, not awful, but still a little cumbersome. ]

[marmoron]

[Can't be too much worse than any of the usual voltron shenanigans. Keith is going to put his foot on the fence, testing to make sure it feels stable.]

Stay here.

[Putting the knife away just to free up his hands for this climbing shindig. If all goes smoothly, anything to note?]

[cartesio]

[ He'll find the fence stable for climbing. Nothing much to note, other than the fact that it seems like there's a lot less fog around the refinery.

It's an easy climb, really. ]

[marmoron]

[Cool, so the fence is stable, no alarms are going off (yet) -- so he'll keep at it until he's on the other side.

Once he's back on the ground, knife's back in hand.]

It's not that bad a climb.

[But just in case, is there a gate or something that he can open up for people to walk throuhg?]

[cartesio]

[ Not where he can see. It looks like finding any gate will be quite a walk around the refinery. ]

[marmoron]

[Well there goes that thought.

Do there appear to be any security cameras around?]

[cartesio]

[ None that he can see outside! It doesn't look like they're monitoring outside, at least not in this direction? ]

[quickpersuader]

[Following along! Kino is definitely keeping an eye out for cameras as well as they go.]

[cartesio]

[ There aren't any that you can see. Proceed ahead? Really, the outside of the refinery seems very quiet. No activity, not even around the back door several feet away from you. ]

[robitussin]

[Hmm.]

...I don't trust this.

[Which is her eternal outlook on pretty much everything, but especially this.]

[marmoron]

[Keith'll be approaching carefully with Kino, switching out the knife for a revolver + silencer. If he spots anything that looks like a camera, he's probably gonna shoot it, jsyk.]

Dunno how much covering our tracks is gonna help. They'll probably assume it was us anyway.

[Gesturing at the back door.]

There.

[Approaching, approaching. Can they open the door or are they gonna have to break this?]

[cartesio]

[ It's not going to be that easy, unfortunately. The door's locked. ]

[robitussin]

Cool. So glad we get to add breaking and entering to our repertoire tonight.

[marmoron]

You get used to it.

[Kinda went to jail for this literally last week and all.]

Anyone here able to lockpick or do we have to break this?

[snideper]

[




just kind of

sprays a spot of paint on the door.

so long as it's here. just sort of experimentally. figuring out how the can of spray paint works.

someone else is gonna have to break it, she's above that (thanks, clarisse)]

[quickpersuader]

[I mean

Kino doesn't have it drawn but is also definitely considering shooting any cameras too, so.]

I don't think this is ever a situation you should trust.

[icariot]

You can say that again. [beyond the everything involved in cartesio, the downgrade from murder to valdaliam is extra suspicious]

[marmoron]

{"Mm" of agreement. There's been a weapon glued to his hand since getting up here except while fence climbing.]

Stay sharp.
