[ he is going to take such a long fucking shower. both because it's been two days and because he kind of just wants to run up the cult's water bill. fuck 'em.
and eventually he's back. ]
Okay. [ SIGHS. ] ...God. I don't even know where to start right now.
Uh, this chimera thing for one. Can you explain that in any more detail now that we're not in the middle of a trial? Like, how closely are those two people working together? We're pretty sure we found the last monster from last week now, but I'm still not sure how the chimera thing fits into that. Does that mean that two out of the three murders that week had two people carrying them out?
well, she will go to the boardwalk to meet him there. she has the mask on, which is not surprising considering she was not going to travel through the entire village with it off. in one of her hands is a bag.
[ he's dressed nicely but looks a little shitty both physically and emotionally. i guess he also still has bruises on his face from punching himself. none of this is ideal.
but he smiles!! it's fine!!! ]
Hey!
[ waves back. ]
...You know, I feel like I make a remark about what a bad week it was every Sunday and yet the next week almost always seems to top it.
but yay garden. he's in this with some light khaki pants, it's cute. ]
Okay. [ he sits down with a cup of tea and sighs tiredly. ] Thanks for coming out here, there's some old stuff I keep forgetting about and then a lot of new stuff that came up in the last few days, so.
[ takes out his phone and opens up his notes app checklist to keep himself from getting too far off track. ]
Uh, the big thing that you're probably getting lots of questions about — what exactly is our endgame plan here? There's been information going around saying that the cult only needs six of us alive, but then some kind of mixed messages about what that actually means we need to do. We're supposed to try to keep as many people from dying as we can until the week of the ritual, and then... kill however many we need to get the number below six so the cult doesn't have enough?? Is that right?
Like, I think I get the logic, but it still sounds kind of insane.
[ tired smile... there's some happiness at seeing her in his emotions, even if the undercurrent is still depression, anxiety, and a stronger self-loathing than ever.
[ This Monday, one of the crows will come to Totty without being beckoned over. In simple script, they are told to pass through the fog on the south side of the village and go to the garden that the Overseers were seen tending to on the very first Monday. While there, War meets them and hands them the following parchment: ]

[ Your Overseer is present to answer any questions. ]
Um... I guess that depends on what your definition of rest is, haha.
[ he took a shower over here earlier, at least, so all the blood and sludge and smoke smell and stuff are cleaned up (and hopefully didn't fuck up your drain). and he got kind of patched up with the supplies alfyn left here, but he's still not willing to get into the swamp, so. he could look better. ftr he's just got a small bandage over the missing ear tip because i refuse to make him look like trump.
anyway he did lie down for a while but it was just staring at the ceiling and not sleeping. ]
[ you can decide if this is before or after texting
but the door will open... the way she likely has spent a good portion of the day in her room to feel strength enough to be normal after pupu. it's fine. ]
