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.))

[Seeing Erika at the tower is nothing out of place; surely, a detective would explore the new buildings available to them, regardless of their opinions on magic and the like. He’s content to leave her about her business so long as she doesn’t bother him, but after several minutes…he has to say something.]

You’re staring, Erika.

[Come out with it.]

[truthdefiler]

[........]

Where did you get the cat? And when?

[sorathvau]

It followed me back to the farm this morning. It’s refused to leave me alone since.

[Probably because he keeps sneaking it tinned sardines.]

Why?

cw for severe paranoia

[truthdefiler]

Mm.

[What if, what if, what if, what if...... It would be so much like her, wouldn't it? Drop her in, don't say anything, reveal at the last minute that it was her all along....

Lambdadelta's words ring in her head. "Are you all real? Did I really get out?" She'd sneered at her at the time, but.]

Just... be careful. [...] I think Makima-san has some sort of control over the wildlife.

[Yeah... that's totally it.]

[sorathvau]

You’re concerned?

[He sounds amused at that.]

I would’ve thought it another thing you’d be interested by.

[Death by cat or a feline mole…surely a detective would be eager to sink their teeth into either of those.]

[truthdefiler]

...

I have actually seen people be ripped apart by cats.

[Make no mistake, that was pretty sick, but.]

[sorathvau]

I don’t doubt it.

[He gives Lucifer a scratch behind the ear.]

But surely you’d be eager for another case to investigate?

[truthdefiler]

[That's amusing enough to partly nreak her out of her paranoid haze.] I don't have to look very hard. It seems they'll be a weekly occurrence.

Usually they're more of a daily thing for me.

[sorathvau]

[He's got about as much faith in the group not murdering each other as Erika does, so no arguments here.]

...It must be hard for you to contain your anticipation.

[truthdefiler]

How morbid. It's like you think I'm looking forward to people dying.

[Just a small and sassy grin.

It's dampened somewhat when her eyes shift to the cat again.]

[sorathvau]

Are you telling me you’re not?

[Just. Picks up the cat.]
