WEEK 4 - VENUS FLYTRAP

[foundationmods]

Another week dawned.

But after the events at the trial, more than a few people would have wanted for time to stop still.

In this game, even unshakable loyalties....could be broken.🗈

If that were the case, then what was stopping even more horrible crimes from happening this thursday night?
And they knew they could do nothing to stop it from happening.

...Still, they had to continue the game, until one or both of the Witches admitted defeat, or the game itself came to a close.

Yet, they also felt as if something might change. Some big reveal felt as if it was just around the corner....but for now, it seemed as if they had to play the waiting game.

No matter how awful that felt.

[oh. no.

she was expecting this, but it still hurts, to see Ryuji and to know he's not Ryuji at all. Ann's abandoned her pigtails, and is going for something new, herself. But more importantly.

She swallows, walks up to him, leans forward...

and kisses him on the cheek. And then steps back, and stares at him.]

[kiddatheart]

Whoa--

[ The groundskeeper blinks, face reddening slightly as he gets the kiss before he coughs and offers Ann a big smile ]

Can't say I don't mind getting a kiss from a pretty lass like yourself, but normally we introduce ourselves before we do.

I'm William, though most people call me Willie.

[fullbodied]

[oh, god. he doesn't sound like Ryuji either.

it's killing her.]

That was for Ryuji Sakamoto. Hopefully he remembers it.

[and then she sighs.]

I'm Ann Takamaki.

[kiddatheart]

Mr. Sakamoto? That was one of the Lady's guests, right? Shame he had to leave so soon. Though, I can't say I'll pass that kiss on.

[ gives a small laugh there ]

It's a pleasure to meet you, Ms. Takamaki.

[fullbodied]

[yeah, she. she hates it when he puts it that way.

She hates it so much!!! go away groundskeeper willie!!

but also, no more misery. nope. she's done.]

Too bad, it's already passed on. You can't take it back.

[kiddatheart]

Can't say that makes a lot of sense, but if you say so, m'am.

[fullbodied]

Good.

[she doesn't know what else to say.]

... And don't call me ma'am. Ann's fine.

[kiddatheart]

--Don't know if I can, since you're one of the Lady's invited guests.

[fullbodied]

Even though I'm telling you to?

[kiddatheart]

Wouldn't... be proper?

[fullbodied]

And "lass" is?

[kiddatheart]

Well, you are a lass, Ms. Takamaki!

[fullbodied]

But you wouldn't like it if someone just went up to you and said, "Hey, boy."

[kiddatheart]

But it's an apt description, don't you think?

[fullbodied]

No, it's rude. Because your name isn't "boy."

[kiddatheart]

Not the worst I've been called.

[fullbodied]

Oh? What's the worst you've been called?

[kiddatheart]

I can't remember all the particulars, but it wasn't until I started working for the Lady of the house that I felt like treated with respect.

[fullbodied]

Why, what happened before...?

[kiddatheart]

Does that really matter, Ms. Takamaki? Just know I'll do anything for the Lady. That's enough to speak for her character, yeah?

[fullbodied]

Even when she laughs at my tears? Is that not enough to speak for her character?

[kiddatheart]

That doesn't sound like her, you must be mistaken, Ms. Takamaki.

[fullbodied]

I'm not mistaken. That happened.

[kiddatheart]

Then there must be a misunderstanding here.
