cartesianism | Week 4: April 22nd

Week 4: April 22nd - April 26th

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.

[What. The. Fuck. Why the hell is this happening? But holy shit does his face go from baffled to just--

He feels like he's being trolled really hard right now. Can he explain it? No.

Indiscriminate anger???????]

The hell is the matter with you?!

[ The queue keeps updating merrily, totally ignorant of Keith's rage. In fact it just gives you 'song for Keith'.

But then the next tune is something totally different: 'Hawks'. ]

[Kino is so damn perplexed right now.]

...Do you want us to bring Mr. Hawks?

Are... are they talking to us with the music...?

[...At least it's not blood? Millium peers over at the queue nervously, hands clutched to her chest.]

...Hawks? What do you want with him?

[ Neither Kino nor Millium receive an answer, the queue stays the same and the music simply keeps playing. ]

[Okay. So the poltergeist i s calling people out by name now. Playing weird songs about hot mom's and wait--]

Hey, idiot. If htat's you, put that Stacy song back on.

[Golden rule of the universe: the things you think are dead are never fucking dead.]

[ That's not what happens. Instead two new tunes get added while Keith is still in the middle of speaking: Help! by the Beatles and Stayin' Alive by the Bee Gees.

H-how do we help?

Will you stop putting blood on our walls if we help?

[...S Q U I N T.]

I can't tell if they're asking us for help or trying to help us.

[Kino's just starting to assume they're only talking to Keith for whatever reason.]

Alright, both of you shut up. We need to give clear instructions instead of asking open ended things they can't answer.

[Turning back to the jukebox, still angry?????]

You gonna cooperate or not?!

[ Nothing happens. There's simply fun music filling the diner from the selected tracks.

This approach doesn't seem to be working. ]

[ Alright that's not helping. Azura steps over again and puts her hand on the jukebox. ]

Do you need us to help you...find something?

[ Nothing, for a long while, until seemingly at random a new update comes in. ]

[. . .]

[...]

Do you need our help?

[Hawks had just been watching the proceedings before this song came on, and was more than willing to approach when his name gets called]

I’m here, I’m here. Is it... Bakugou....?

...Maybe?

[Millium knits her brows a little before motioning to the queue.]

"Hot stuff." After the one with "Nine" in it. Isn't that what Nine called Bakky?

From what I know, yeah.

[ For a little while after Hawks' arrival, nothing happens.

When the queue updates it has two interesting titles though: Fire Brigade and Jesus, You're The Answer. ]

...The fire station and the chapel?

[So many questions- wait.]

...Did they make the hole in the fire station wall? No one talked about it at the meeting.

Maybe that was Bakugou having at Clarisse again. It’d certainly be what I’d expect to happen if they crossed again.

...What even is a Jesus?

[Millium has been wondering this for like a solid four days and has just been too afraid to ask.]
