WEEK TWO

23 Villagers

Three people have fallen and a tower has risen. Along with it, some of the restraints on your mind have dispersed and a memory has returned to you - is it precious, is it painful? Is it cherished, is it loathed?

Mercilessly, dawn breaks on another morning. The rooster still calls, and the crops still need tending to. Rise and shine, Puffin Town! It seems like the residents are not the only thing that has chosen to rise, as a few more establishments have opened up for exploration. The sound of moo-ing near the farms may feel especially inviting here - how about making some new additions to your farms, to drown out your loneliness?

There is no festival just yet but if you question the ducks on it, some excited quacking will herald fun things to come later in the week. Some of the ducks will also wave the gift notes from last week; regardless of murder, being kind to your neighbors is still encouraged! Can't let our beautiful town sink into gloom and doom, right?

(( OOC: Murder proposals are due by Tuesday at 4 PM EST / 1 PM PST, for the current week's murder, but feel free to submit for later weeks if you like!

We have also added a page to report your Astera planting - this does not need to have been threaded, we're just taking stock on an OOC level.

Further, the Gift Mechanic has been updated. All turned in threads will now yield a character specific item as a reward! We're only dipping into the random gacha once all personalized rewards have been given out.))

Yes, you! I think I have something you'll want to have.

[Colette is already rooting behind her stall. One can see a whole lot of plants in bags, nicely grown, and she's already searching for a specific one]

[collisionheart]

[ Amy comes to stand near the booth, waiting anxiously. What could… it be… ? ]

[illprotecteveryone]

This is actually pretty nice!

[Colette is looking at the trinkets available, passing a finger over one of the copper collars]

Are you sure you don't want anything in exchange? It's nicely made, I dunno if I can just take it...

[illprotecteveryone]

Here you go.

[Colette plops on the surface of her stall a plant that's already half a meter tall. On the side of the pot it says:

'Cacao']

It's for the chocolate.

[illprotecteveryone]

It looks like a Cream to me'

[truthdefiler]

[Erika approaches, arms folded behind her back.]

A gift, you say?

[illprotecteveryone]

That's right. Wait, I think I have one...

[Somehow, Colette doesn't search into the plants. Instead, she picks something up from behind the stall, putting them on the surface of the stall.

They're a pair of quality chopsticks]

I think your plaque had something about these...?

Re: name that cow

[truthdefiler]

[Erika will approach, scan the booth and then drop a name in the jar.

Asterion.

Yes, Asterion the Minotaur was a bull, but so are all the major Great Detectives.]

colette what have you done (1/2)

[truthdefiler]

[There's a moment when Erika just stares in shock.

...

......

.........

Is. Is this an angel? Is this what hope feels like?]

[truthdefiler]

(VERY GOOD!)

[Erika takes them into her hands and displays them with all the gravity of presenting the Holy Grail to the King.]

Truly the most wonderful gift!!!!!!!!

[ !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Amy reaches out to take it, pleased. She hadn’t even considered trying to make chocolate. A world of possibilities, expanded before her in the shape of a little plant. Her voice isn’t so small right now. ]

Thank you…

Erika Furudo

[truthdefiler]

[Who put her up here.]

[truthdefiler]

[collisionheart]

Even if you fooled enough people… I guess I just don’t understand how someone could go through with it…

Someone else would die in their place.

[enkiboo]

Are you getting all the ladies, Zelos?

[ they give a small wave at him ]

[enkiboo]

[ Henwo Colette!!

They smile on over at her as she sits by near them. ]

No. I was thinking of building sand castles.

Want to join me in doing that?

[mirrari]

You can certainly try asking him, but I'm hurt. You don't want to have some fun with me anymore?

[bye,]

[enkiboo]

For some people, sacrificing the life of another is easy. Or, even if it is difficult, they are able to justify it if it would benefit them. Or if they can make it acceptable in their head that other life is worth less than their own.

Or perhaps they simply have more lives they think they can exchange for a shorter sacrifice that seems more humane.

[ Even with that may not be the case. ]

[pimpplan]

Hate the game, not the player.

[ smiles. :) ]

Azure's here, too, if you prefer something else.

[liberazoth]

[ wow what did mister white do to be excluded like this-

no but seriously vayne is probably just making a round of the booths, enjoying the night air when colette ... starts trying to wave him over? ]

Um, you called...?

[pimpplan]

Who knows? Call it a scientific experiment.

It's better to have loved and lost, then to not have loved at all, right?

[pimpplan]

[ why, does the duck want a smooch ]

[pimpplan]

Seriously.

[ get with the program, kurapika. ]

You want one?

[revengier]

[ He examines the wire-wrapped one, and then picks up another one, this one solid. ]

Even so, not everyone could make things like this. I'm not good enough with my hands to.

[ He's read books about that sort of thing, definitely, but trying it is another story entirely. Kurapika's gaze drifts to that little note. ]

Would you make one with a gemstone?
