Week 4

[foundationmods]

It finally happened. Someone murdered, and was punished for it. After a particularly grueling trial, one much worse than the games ever were, everyone definitely needed the rest of the weekend to rest up. But now it is Monday once more, and that means it is time to get back to 'work'.

The cameras have moved again, and the contestants will need to be careful where they say what until their new locations have been revealed. In addition to that, the house itself seems to have changed, with its usual colorful appearance suddenly a bit more grey. Even the weather seems to be gloomy, with those storm clouds from last week starting to overcast the area, threatening to drop rain.

Seventeen contestants remain in this game of death. How many more will fall before the game is over? And how many more will be driven to murder?

FULL MOON

[foundationmods]

[It is getting close to night time, and the sun is just starting to set. Preparations have already been made for the sleepover, and even Dazai is present in the house, just sitting around and waiting with everyone else.

But then, as the sun begins to set, everyone will be able to hear a song coming from outside.]

[allmyfriendsaredead]

[Saki is mostly around as a backup plan, and she's got some uncertainties about all this, but...

...?]

Is that singing...?

THIS IS STILL ROOD DOOD

[darkremnants]

[ Let's see what's happening outside ]

[oceanicbutterfly]

[...yes, this seems like something to be investigated.]

[iblistriggered]

[Silver floats outside to the roof, listening to the song ]

It sounds peaceful... but a little sad...

[dereban]

[ THIS IS

SETTING ALARM BELLS so while people might be going outside she is! pointedly! staying inside because she knows just how bad it is if things go to shit now.

nope! not today, satan!!!! ]

[houndumb]

[He was dawdling outside on the first floor roof waiting for sleepover shenanigans to die down, so Nora’s just going to narrow his eyes and then stalk off to find the source. Suspicious things today of all days....]

Better not be that Azura again...

[duskhound]

[Yeah, Ellie's heading outside to investigate because of course she is.]

party raven

[darkremnants]

[ For anyone staying inside, they will find this hanging around. ]

IN MEMORIAM — Open
[Past the garden, on the south side of the house, there’s something new. Leaning up against the wall, protected from possible rain by the eave of the house, is a flat piece of wood with framed photos hanging on it. The photos show familiar, smiling faces (or, at least, neutral, in some cases) — Akechi, Azula, Aqua, Sandalphon, George, Ozaki, Mitsuru. Those that had been lost. In front of that is a box labeled “Offerings”.

There’s an arc-shaped flowerbed with the concave side facing the memorial board. Off to one side, there’s a palette of flowers in individual containers, ready to be planted. And in front of the bed is a handcrafted wooden bench — nothing special. It looks like it’s made of the same lumber the Prinnies use to build stuff in the studio. There’s also a large piece of sheet metal.

Throughout the morning, Silver will be working diligently, planting flowers and small shrubs in the bed he made yesterday. He has on the gardening gloves Akechi gave him, and seems very focused on the task at hand.

Later, you may catch him bending the piece of sheet metal to cover the bench, making it look a bit more professional and sturdy…

And even later, around 1 pm, you might catch him sitting on the bench in quiet reflection, talking to himself.]

Sorry. That’s the best I can do. Ingway’s bench is pretty good, though, don’t you think?

Pesterchum — MOD PING
[Later in the afternoon, Silver will be in the orange room, reading a a book. Except he’s not. He has his phone out inside the book, turned from the cameras. Though he does make an effort to turn the pages every once in a while to look convincing.

He signs onto pesterchum and sends a request to “GenkiGravekeeper” from his account “ArgentESPer”.]

AE: Are you there?
AE: Please answer.
AE: I need to talk to you.

WILDCARD
[He can also be found out and about -- garden, kitchen, pool, etc -- when he's not doing the above things!]

memoriam, later

[darkremnants]

[ He sees that photo of Aqua and it pisses him off. It implies that she's gone for good, and that's not something he's ready to even ponder. The what-if they fail.

Grabbing her framed pictures off the memoriam and walking away with it. ]

Memoriam

[allmyfriendsaredead]

[Saki happens by as he's working on the bench, and she can't help but walk over to check it out.]

Is this... a shrine?

memoriam, even later

[dereban]

It's not that bad. . . it's been a while since I've seen a shrine.

[ s'up Silver, don't mind the teenage girl in the maid outfit, it's fine. ]

Have you been working on this all day?

Pesterchum

[foundationmods]

[He will get an answer!]

Who is this???

[scarsnstripes]

[Atsushi spots Silver at work earlier in the morning, but it isn't until the afternoon he finally approaches, carrying a box with a soft smile on his face.]

It's a memorial?

Memoriam, Even Later

[hatesdeerstalkers]

[Oh...

When it's completed, Moriarty blinks - and walks forward, almost as if he's in a dream, staring at one particular picture, a...complicated expression on his face. It's hard to tell exactly what it is - sorrow? Regret? Pain? - before reaching out with a gloved hand to brush his fingertips against Akechi's picture.

Then, as if he's been repremanded, he quickly draws it back.]

...

[Hearing Silver behind him, he turns around.]

I believe they would be pleased with your efforts - Silver.

Memoriam, Even Later

[overconfidant]

[When Akira first sees the little shrine, he doesn't approach it or Silver. Actually, he promptly disappears back into the house.

But he comes back out after a few minutes holding some things. Akira gently lays a bowl filled with sand in the Offerings box and places several sticks of incense straight up in it before lighting them. If Silver or anyone else listening speaks Japanese?]

'I will not forget.'

[Akira reaches out to brush gentle fingertips against the edge of Goro's picture before slipping something small and folded underneath and fastening it there.]

You saved me some work, to be honest... Thank you for doing this, Silver.

memoriam; later

[shortstacked]

[otani comes across silver later in the afternoon while he is working on this and he walks over out of curiosity noticing the photos specifically of those who have been killed over the last couple weeks] Is this a shrine for them?

in memoriam ish

[houndumb]

[At some point somebody sneaks in and leaves this and this with the offerings???

Nora pls stop dumping random crap on dead people BUT YOU'LL NEVER CATCH HIM ALIVE. That's not a death flag. Anyway, after a little while something else appears: a little pile of rocks, seven in all, painted in the correct colors. They're not really all that fancy, but they're probably better than Goodwill donations.

That's all folks. Dog hit his quota of emotional landmines last week.]

morning

[prayerwheel]

[ watching this carefully

She super-grew all of Ingway's plants a few weeks ago, but yeah, people probably want normal earth plants, hm. ]

I didn't know you enjoyed gardening.

[ sup silver, they haven't really chatted since they got to murderhaus ]

[overconfidant]

In the morning:

[Akira is in the rec room, sprawled over a couple of bean bags laid side by side.

Music is playing in the room as he stares at the ceiling.]

In the afternoon:

[Giving Akira a hookshot was a terrible mistake but right now he isn't using it for Evil. He has... something bulky tucked under one arm as he uses the hookshot to pull himself up to the roof. He climbs to the highest peak and reveals-

A Keurig.]

Sacrificing heresy to the coffee gods, look out below!

[At least he gives a warning? Before he yeets the Keurig 'coffeemaker' right off the roof to smash on the ground below.]

morning

[dereban]

. . . What is this, the early 2000s?

[ Inaba gives him a scrutinizing look, hand on hip in a maid outfit. She is judging him for his song choice. ]

afternoon

[allmyfriendsaredead]

[Hi, yeah, there's a short but probably familiar by now scream as the keurig crashes, The good news is, Saki is okay!

The bad news is, she seems to have fallen over in surprise at sudden coffee machine from above, because she's just kind of staring at the mangled mess in shock from the ground.]

AFTER FULL MOON

[guileturncoat]

[Once everyone has returned to the common area, Dazai will call for everyone's attention.]

Alright everyone, listen up! This is Atsushi-kun's first time, so be gentle with him.

[Yes, he had to say it that way. Because he's an asshole.]

The doors to the rooms need to stay closed, and keep the window in the bathroom covered at all times. Also all party games need to be rated PG or lower. That means no swearing, Ina-bun.

Remember, the first one to fall asleep gets their face drawn on! I brought the markers for that too.

[Also, unless stated otherwise, assume Dazai is holding onto Atsushi somehow. Usually with hand-holding.]
