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.

[Don't mind Miss Tactless over here as she goes over and just takes a seat on the side of Sakura's bed.]

Okay, so you'll need a sheet of paper. It has to be a square, okay?
no subject
You got any on you? The only paper I have is all sharks.
no subject
[ Sakura's going to hop off the bed to open it real quick-- if Millium's paying close attention, she might notice that there's also outfits inside of there, folded nicely except for like... one, since folding the outfit she got back would be bad for it. ]
Here's one for you, Millium-chan.
no subject
Ah, thanks.
Cute stuff you got in there. From back home?
no subject
[ Which she'll pull out. ]
It's a costume that Tomoyo-chan made for me. The other stuff I got from back home is in here. [ She gestures at her pocket. ] B-B-But, we're here to make cranes..!!
no subject
[A beat.]
Oh! Cranes, right.
[ATTENTIVE STUDENT MODE]
no subject
[ Hence why she kind of hasn't. Yet. ]
Mm. So you just fold like this.
[ And she'll slowly show her as she folds diagonally from edge to edge. ]
no subject
Man, I wish we'd had you back at the concert at Thors! We coulda won just by dressing you up, I think, and saved ourselves the Elliot boot camp...
[She's smiling, though. "Boot camp" or no, it seems like she enjoyed it.]
Okay!
[Millium copies the motion... entirely too quickly and haphazardly. This is not going to be a neat crane. But it's not terrible.]
no subject
[ Although seeing Millium smile makes her smile. ]
Then you open it back up and then fold it the other way, again diagonally. You mostly need the creases for later.
no subject
[LOGIC. Still, she follows those instructions. Not neatly, but those sure are creases?]
no subject
[ That's probably not too far off base. ]
A-Anyway! Now we have to make more creases. Fold it in half from left to right and then unfold and do the same from top to bottom and unfold until you have a cross crease when you open it up.
no subject
Sounds like Tomoyo-chan knows what she's talkin' about, if you ask me~
no subject
[ Hilariously enough, Sakura's face is now beet red like a tomato. This is super embarrassing to talk about. ]
Now that we have all our folds, you go like this...
[ And she shows Millium the next step, bringing the lower right and left side to the center and folding it down and then bringing the upper part down to make a smaller diamond-like shape before creasing it. ]
... so it looks like that, now.
no subject
Aww~ look how red you are! That's even cuter~!
[Are we sure Millium was the victim this week and not Sakura?]
no subject
[ She tries her best to get angry, but it just comes out as a rather embarrassed huff. Unbelievable. ]
Now you have to fold the right corner of the top to the center crease. And then do the same on the other side, so it'll make two triangles.
[ Which she demonstrates. ]
no subject
A~do~ra~ble~
[fold fold fold]
no subject
she just.
buries her face in her hands before just. going ahead to explain how to fold the rest of the crane. ]
no subject
But okay! At the end of it, Millium has one (1) questionable-looking crane.]
There! I did it!
[The lopsided crane that she holds out proudly flops over to one side impassively.]
no subject
[ Sakura's on the other hand, is pretty neat. ]
no subject
But that's what practice is for, right?
[Practice and some measure of patience and care, Millium...]

[bitter laughter in the distance]
Thanks, Sakura-chan.
no subject
It's no problem, really. Um, if there's anything else you want to talk about, I don't mind talking about it.
no subject
...Shouldn't it be the other way around? You seemed a lot more shaken up about everythin' than I am.
