RECORDING 4: THE SECOND WEEK

[foundationmods]

A second week in this place begins, with less of your number among you. With first blood - and oil - spilled, it now seems as if it'll only be a matter of time before the worse eventually happens once more. Thankfully, it seems as if the Miasma is content to remain at the same levels it did before, so arguments are unlikely to break out, though tensions are surely high after everything that's already occurred.

Speaking of which, the temperature remains a consistent comfortable early to mid 70's in the house. It appears at least that you'll be here in comfort..? Though it appears that the rooms have changed, so hopefully you kept anything essential in the static area.

Yet, something feels...wrong. The house feels as if it is laughing at you, when you awake...

...What new horrors await you this week?


WARNING: Some investigations of new areas will contain traps that may be harmful or even lethal.

I... I knew she was a ghost now... or, I guess, a ghost robot. I thought she might s- say no...

[ An especially loud sniffle as he turns to Haku, eyes still brimming. ]

I just didn't think it would hurt so bad.

[ Just another reminder that he's failed. ]

[dreamshielder]

[This is a pretty bad time to be getting distracted, but all the same Haku gently puts his hand on Gio's shoulder. It's not much by way of comfort, but it's something... maybe.]

Let out all your tears if you must. But know that you are stronger than any pain this creature can inflict.

[soupervillain]

[ One of Giovanni's hands finds its way over Haku's and grips, tightly. His pink-painted nails dig into his own shoulder, but he doesn't seem to feel it. ]

You're so nice to me, Needles. But I gotta... I gotta be stronger. For all of you.

[dreamshielder]

[He's a little surprised by that grip on his hand, but he gives Gio's shoulder a squeeze back.]

All those feelings you're carrying right now ... they'll be a good motivation for you to keep working towards your goals. You mustn't forget your feelings, nor should you let them demoralize you. Just keep going. I believe you can do it.

[soupervillain]

You know what? [ SNIFFLE ] You are so right. I'm only feeling this way because things have been so absolutely freakin' terrible. But that just means I need to make sure nothing like the past few days ever happens again! Because I'm your Captain, damn it!

[ He's still crying, but there's a determination in his voice now, if you can hear it through the tears. ]

[dreamshielder]

[That determination is loud and clear, alright. Haku grins, stepping back to give Gio more space.]

But with all that said. Promise that you won't go looking for trouble?

[soupervillain]

Looking for trouble?! Giovanni Potage makes his own trouble! ...But yeah, I promise.

[ He shoots Haku a weak smile. ]

Thanks.
