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.

Exactly. Even this isn't the worst circumstances, so that makes it a little easier to bear.

We have food, water, and shelter provided. Death at the rate of one per week isn't as bad as some countries where people die to illness or violence every day.

I still don't like it. But I can imagine worse scenarios.

[Survived through worse.]

[burgerprince]

Two a week. If we're being realistically optimistic.

[quickpersuader]

[...Fair. A nod.]

Two a week.

[burgerprince]

Still, you have a point. We could have to go all Battle Royale on this.

[He pauses.]

But this whole setup makes it...worse, somehow. Like we're encouraged to feel comfortable just to make it hurt all the more when its torn apart.

[quickpersuader]

[What's battle royale...]

Mm... the last time I was in a situation like this. The country where they made everyone fight each other for citizenship. It was over in three days, but I missed having a shower or good food.

[It's kind of hard to say which Kino would prefer of the two...]

Well... it was easier to get away without killing.

[burgerprince]

[Jughead makes a face, and sighs.]

It'd be too much to hope people are all murdered out now, and we won't have to worry about it anymore, wouldn't it?

[quickpersuader]

Probably. Most people have a price.

[Unfortunate as it is.]
