cartesianism | Week 4: April 22nd

Fourth Week

A second murder shook the town of Cartesio. Clarisse's ambush plan ended with Katsuki Bakugou's death. Now what?

Nothing to be done other than continuing their life and watch what happens. After two weeks, after the deaths they have seen, it's hard to think there's a way out. The only option is to wait for the right chance to turn the tables and see a weak point in the Sergeant's plans -- and hopefully not see any murders.

The townspeople's attitude towards the tourists soured even more. The destruction of the church was much worse than anything they had seen so far, and they ran out of patience. People who in the past were nice and wanted nothing more than to make the tourists happy now aren't afraid of saying to their faces what's what. Random pedestrians shout at the visitors, telling them to stop being criminals. Although there are a few who have more patience than the rest, general opinion is clear:

The tourists are nuisances, to say the least.

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

[Millium is still decently freaked out from this morning, but she's here.]

I talked to the lady at the police station on Thursday, after we found Rean and after you n' I talked about how long we mighta been here, Sakura.

She confirmed he moved in about three weeks ago. So whatever Sarge did to our friends' heads, he did somethin' to the townspeople, too, 'cause there's no way you get that high of a rank when you know nothin' 'bout oil in three weeks.

[And with that out of the way:]

A-also, when I woke up this morning, there was blood on my wall and it wasn't there when I went to bed last night...

I see--

[ Wait.

There's more pressing matters here. ]

Hoeeee.... there was blood on the wall?! D-D-Do you think it might have been...!

[ She sure doesn't say it but there's the implication that it was, you know. Probably a ghost? There. ]

I don't know but I know I'm not staying there anymore...!

[It's cool, Sakura, she's with you. DISLIKES: GHOSTS,]

I hope it doesn't happen again. I don't know if I'd be able to stay in the motel anymore if there really are...

[ She looks absolutely terrified and distraught about the prospect, especially if these so-called ghosts are using blood? It's not good, to say the least. ]

I wonder if we could camp outside. [ It sure as hell beats living with ghosts. ]

T-there's the hunting store, right? Maybe they've got tents n' we can camp in the park...

Y... yeah, maybe.

[ Swallowing hard, Sakura tries her best to cool herself off. It's not really working out for her. ]

I need to practice in the park for Thursday, too, so...

[ She's.

She's not getting any sleep tonight, is she. ]

Maybe... maybe it's just my room that's haunted? 'Cause I helped Kino with the ghost peppers...

[Millium... honey, no.]

I mean... nothing happened with my room, but what about the others?

[ An actual question that she's asking the group. ]

But ghost peppers? [ Millium what did you do. ]

I wandered into the kitchen building 'cause I wanted to look at it again n' Kino was in there cooking, so I helped him out, and he said he found ghost peppers and was using them and I told him I was worried but he said it was just a story!

[#BROTRAYAL, except not really Millium the peppers had nothing to do with this, probably]
