Week 5: April 29th - May 3rd

[cartesio]

Fifth Week

Everything's getting worse. Rose Nylund and Frasier Crane murdered Jughead Jones during the event Jughead worked so hard to organize. Given some of the townspeople were in attendance, it didn't give a good impression -- if the visitors did this when trying to be good people and get along with Cartesio, then how will they behave once they get into destroying everything? The cruel method of Jughead's death also left everyone quite horrified, too.

That may be why it's no surprise the town's quiet unrest is slowly turning into real, tangible fury.

During the week, from time to time stones break some of the windows of the motel, looking outside shows a random passerby running away. Graffiti is left on the walls: 'SEE IF YOU LIKE THIS' 'MURDERERS' 'YOU'RE GOING TO DESTROY US ALL', and other similar messages. Some of the store owners hesitate when the visitors approach, but they don't refuse service because money is always nice.

The Sergeant's pervasive influence is starting to cover not only you, but also the entire town of Cartesio. After all, everything that's happening to you and the motel? It's the result of what you and the other visitors have done.

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

...something nameless, of seemingly no value. And yet it's been troubling me for a while now. Only now have I realized just... how bizarre I've been acting of late. At least, strange for me.

[If it sounds silly to you, then you'd be correct. Admittedly Dazai barely knows how to describe it. It had never existed inside of him before. And what he has now is probably not the same as what belonged in that space inside of him, but it's filled it in regardless, in it's own way.]

I gave up chasing this phantom four years ago but now... the impossible has happened. I've found it. There's been this unsettling, unpleasant weight in my chest-- words that should come easily have not, and others that I have no business saying weren't meant the way I thought...

It's a complete disaster.

[ oda doesn't find it silly. if anything, he finds it somewhat troubling, yet familiar, the way that dazai dances around the subject.

he just wishes that he would go out and say it. ]

I don't understand. What are you trying to say?

[pursuitofdeath]

The void inside of me... it doesn't ache anymore.

[When he slows down a narrows in on the topic, it's a lot more understandable. But that probably just makes it crazier, what he's saying.]

I've felt things. And good or bad it's always come back to... this realization. The thing that's been missing... that's connecting all these things I suddenly feel... I've found... something I want. Something to live for.
