WEEK 3: April 15th - April 19th



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.

That's...

[She pauses a moment, trying to find a word for just how abhorrent she finds that. In the end, she can't, so she just falls silent.]

...There are many beautiful things in the world. But there's many sad and painful things, too.

I don't regret visiting there. So for as long as I live, I'll just remember the good parts fondly.

[Even if it ended in tragedy.]

That's not...

[She takes a breath, shaking her head.]

I mean, sure, there are parts that are shitty that you can't get away from, but - this was avoidable. They were making decisions about whether it was fine to end lives that weren't theirs because of how they felt.

There are all kinds of avoidable tragedies no matter what country you go to.

People are like that.

And you aren't, like... Angry at them or anything? They practically killed those kids.

I was angry when I first found out. But... I can't really dwell on things like that, either.

Did you have time to try to convince them, or...?
quickpersuader: (where are)

[personal profile] quickpersuader 2018-10-29 03:44 am (UTC)(link)
Convincing everyone in a country that they should change their minds according to an outsider who only planned to stay for three days is not something I would do even if I'd known.

...I guess so.

[Still, she doesn't seem satisfied with that.]
