Week 7: May 13th - May 17th


Seventh Week
The tense truce that had covered Cartesio was over. The town, feeling betrayed after having given a chance to the outsiders, pushed back. Enraged, they started getting even more daring, starting to get into the tourists' only safe haven: their motel rooms. They don't manage to break in, but it's not unusual to hear thumping on the doors, someone trying to get in. The windows are almost perpetually broken, there's so much graffiti on the ground floor of the motel, both inside and outside, it's hard to know what each one is saying. Can't be anything good, that's the only thing that's certain. The lounge's furniture has been tore to pieces, the lobby only has the guestbook intact, and the planters in middle of the motel are broken, the soil and plants strewn around.

The residents of Cartesio are near their breaking point. The despair, fury, and desire to get rid of the outsiders so everyone can return to their peaceful lives, have covered the town. It won't take long before they reach their breaking point, and if they do...what will happen to the visitors?

The Sergeant's grip on the town is total, and next week is the one marked as END. It seems like there's no way out, like the Sergeant won.

But you can't lose hope. You have to remember: now that you're on your darkest hour, the only way lef to go is upwards. Things can get better, you have to make it happen!

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.

About that...

I can drive things other than a motorrad. [Enough, anyway.] I don't really think it's going to be too much trouble.

[She was joking from the start, it was just. The same tone as usual.]

Really. I don't think I could do any fine-tuned driving, but I should be able to stop it from any big crashes.

[With a nod, Kino leads the way to the machines, climbing onto one fearlessly. Once she's up in the seat, she spends a moment looking over the controls.]

Well... It's got a normal steering wheel, at least. [Squinting at the levers.]

Conditioner... Vertical and horizontal augers... and dump tank? [Oh!] Hot water, cold water, and blade.

Blade?!

[ no seriously.

what. ]
quickpersuader: (turns into a cloud)

Hmm...

[She casts a glance over to the ice.]

Are you supposed to shave it down before you put more water on it?
