Week 6: May 6th - 10th

[cartesio]

Sixth Week

Killers and victims, killers and victims. Three of your own have fallen prey to murderous intent last week. Your numbers keep shrinking. Azura has fallen prey to Franciscus in the same night that Olympia betrayed her friend Millium and killed Cian who wound up in the crossfire. At this rate, is there anyone you can trust?

The townspeople's anger burns hotter than ever. Wherever they go, must they live in fear of stumbling on a corpse? They can't live like this. More than ever, the visitors are being shown that they are unwelcome.

Walking outdoors, cold looks are the norm. Shouted profanity isn't unexpected. Barely anybody is willing to still hold a conversation with any visitors.

Even within the motel, there is no feeling of safety any longer. Not only have two people died in this very place, no, now the townspeople also lost their fear of coming inside. While they don't enter private rooms, the daring among them vent their hatred of you by vandalizing the common rooms.

Cartesio has become a menacing place.

In the lobby of the motel there's a few more brochures, and the maps have been updated once again. Don't mind that some of them have been damaged in one of the attacks on the motel.

[pursuitofdeath]

[He's glad you understand.]

And what will just going along with them solve?

[At least he's not holding any weapons but.]

They're never going to listen to us.

[robitussin]

Can you at least wait and see before doing something idiotic?

[Says the girl who willingly gagged someone, tied them up and put them in a chest earlier—]

[quickpersuader]

[Kino holsters her own guns, giving Dazai an unimpressed look.]

As long as your hands aren't actually bound, it should be fine, shouldn't it?

[A guy like him should have more tricks up his sleeves.]

[pursuitofdeath]

[...you know him well.]

...fine, fine.

[He'll wait, and put his hands up. But he's not done by a long shot.]

[cartesio]

[A rookie agent approaches Dazai, gun in the air. Dazai, being the mafioso he is, may notice the safety is on the gun. Looks like this agent is trying their best not to hurt anyone, yeah]

You! The guy with the suspicious face! Get Davis here, now!

[pursuitofdeath]

[....................]

Then it's fine if I put my hands down, right?

[..................................]

[cartesio]

[Oh, geez, what to say, what to say]

No! Just...roll him over here with your feet or something!

[Definitely a rookie]

[pursuitofdeath]

...in the mud?

[cartesio]

Just bring him here! Let us see him!

[Tacit permission to lower your hands, Dazai]

[pursuitofdeath]

[THANKS.

He goes straight in and-- princess carries Davis out just far enough that they can see him.]

Look, all your friends came to see you, isn't that nice?

[cartesio]

'Holy crap he's dead!'

[The rookie goes away running. They panicked]

[cartesio]

[ yeah dazai great idea, wide-eyed and terrified davis in your arms WHAT DID YOU THINK WOULD HAPPEN ]

[relieable]

[just going to... rub his face. someone help them]

[quickpersuader]

[Let's cut over Dazai with:]

Mr. Davis is with Mr. Mason. You should go talk to him instead.

[cartesio]

[ Mason's run out as he heard the helicopters so not ENTIRELY true but: ]

I've seen him! Really, he's... [ A pause. ] He's doing alright! I think!

[cartesio]

[From over the graveyard wall, the hoses stopped, but they're ready to continue watering up the place if they don't like the answer:]

Prove he's not being coerced to side with you!

[Mason, they mean]

[quickpersuader]

[How much time do they even have left?]

Hmm... What could we do to prove that for you?

[Like, she definitely sounds like she's considering it, she just doesn't know what they want really.]

[cartesio]

'I dunno! Do it!'

[Dawn's approaching. The horizon look a bit brighter]

[pursuitofdeath]

You can send someone in to see him for yourself if you'd like.

[cartesio]

'That doesn't prove anything!'

[robitussin]

[There's a pause, before:]

How? We'll do whatever you want.

[cartesio]

'We're asking for proof, the burden of proof is on you!'

[It won't be much longer, Natalie. Keep holding on!]

[cartesio]

[ ]

[icariot]

[Hawks calls out, once him and Nanette find themselves next to Mason and Davis]

Is his word and our pacifism not proof enough for you?

[cartesio]

[ Nanette begins examining the poor man, but hell, she's no medical professional. ]

What the hell kind of tranquilizers...?

"He, uh, I think he's alert, Nanette--"

It's Officer Johnson on duty, Mr. Sterling.

"...Yes ma'am."

[ So that's going great. ]
