[After the mini-event sometime, they can happen upon Death in the village waiting for them. Upon being sniffed, she will pick up on the smell of dirt, old books, and something like mint.
[ well, this time famine doesn't just come out to meet izutsumi. instead, about an hour and a half later, the shitty crow will come flying back with a letter tied to its claw again. it will obediently let the letter be untied before pecking at this kitty's ears like a bitch. in lazy script, messy like someone couldn't be bothered to pick up the pencil, she might be able to understand what it says
no. ga r d en all stretched out just like that. it also looks like it's just the page she sent, recycled since her note is on the back
if she walks toward the south point of the fog, where the npcs were found the first sunday before, a little piece of it will open up to her. as she approaches, it'll be a little dark, but she might make out a lump on the ground ]
[ WOW, SHE WAS STOOD UP.... cat will remember this betrayal.. except the crow comes back and is a little bitch that will get swiped at. not going to explain that it probably takes her a bit to understand at all okay but it's fine. she'll get it eventually.
she creeps along the fog, wary, stepping cautiously as it opens just a little but then just
stares at this lump, um. slowly... prods at... the lump... i hope it's actually nothing. ]
[ they can be at the ranch, near the sheep. baa baa. anyways she's snatching their hand to drag them over to the field with the herd of sheep. COME, SIT. it is lazy lounging time. ]
[ This Monday, one of the crows will come to Izutsumi 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: ]
You have been chosen to declare one rule to be implemented in the rulebook until the night sky once again changes with the new week. You may also implement one penalty if the role is not followed in a week’s time, to occur the following week.
[ Your Overseer is present to answer any questions. ]
[ we can also make it week 5 monday depending on effects i am not picky
but anyway, he will be over at the penthouse. c+ps a description:
The penthouse, as one might expect of... a penthouse, is more spacious than the studios and built out with actual rooms. It's modestly furnished and nondescript to the point of emptiness: austere, wooden furniture and plain windows, impossibly fogged and streaked with water, even if the weather outside is clear; the sound of rain persists. Atop the desks are tidy lines of jars filled with looted supplies from the pharmacy, tools from the hospital, vials in a stand, and a stack of notes. It's neat, academic, and impersonal. There's also a polished, whittled statue of a wolf to the far side, and some keychains.
The 'decor' is otherwise limited to flowers. Drying from the ceiling, dying in vases, dropping petals that decay and vanish before they strike the ground. Two lotuses set in a china bowl, one starting to wrinkle and wither. His Death mask is hung up, but beside it is another fashioned firmly on one of the walls, as though grafted in, swollen onto the wood like a tick to skin. Basically these are the vibes, except less cozy and more surreal, gritty and strange as any of the other rooms. There's some couches and a TV too, for convenience.
he's over on a couch, resting a book against his chest like he's given up on reading it. ]
izutsumi takes a moment to explore, looking around at everything. though she stares more at the masks on display, head tilting as she looks at the one beside the one she Does recognize. her ears perk at her name and she leaves behind the exploring before coming to flop on the couch. in before you're like actually this is a one person couch then i guess the ARM REST LIKE A HEATHEN. ]
Nope. [ which is kinda true? except only kinda. she does start to ball up a little, peering curiously over. ] What are you reading?
[ he'll have helped daan and aventurine where needed, but he hasn't actually sat down to talk to izutsumi yet. whenever she's like, conscious, he'll be there. his expression is even, though his emotions have a quiet undercurrent of concern. ]
[ which is because SHE DID but she's at least bandaged, stitched up, has an ugly shoulder splint. her hand will uselessly try to reach for him though and miss, where paw. ] ..Can't see.
[ the electrical burns on her face are more than obvious, but the damage to her eyes at least don't seem permanent. rip to caelus damn at least her blindness is temporary. her emotions are a creeping fear, but when he talks it does spike with loss and hurt. ] Hurts everywhere.
[ they can just chill in the penthouse. it's changed around a little: there's a kitchen and a dining room now, and multiple bedrooms. more like a suite than a singular apartment. the rain seems to be coming down harder today, and it's a little colder.
[ plops on over wherever he is like she DOESN'T HATE HIM WOW... her fur is a little poofy, but her bandages seem to be in good shape still at least from a glance. ]
I'm fine, not cursed anymore as far as I can tell. [ BITTER. SALTY. angry kitten. who did that to her!! the gentlest of bunts. ]
