RECORDING 7: THE THIRD WEEK.

A third week in this place begins, with less of your number among you. The final week completely covered by everyone's rations, though with proper meting out, you'll be able to make it stretch until after week 4. It seems as if everyone will have to go without a few meals here and there..
To make things worse, when you wake up - it's clear the Miasma has gotten thicker. Everyone, save those still protected either by their powers or items they brought with them, is now even more deeply affected by the curse. Arguments will be flaring up more, along with negative thoughts and feelings...and even more worrying Is that any magic that touches the house itself will corrode over time. If a barrier is put in place and touches the floor, walls, or ceiling, in half a day it will be completely consumed by the miasma and fizzle out. Spells or seals will also corrode, and even personal healing abilities have been halved.
The Temperature has dropped, just a bit - down to the mid to low 60's. Strange, isn't it? As before,the rooms have changed, so hopefully you kept anything essential in the static area.
25 of your number still remain.
...What new horrors await you this week?
TUESDAY
investigating~
[His conversation with Yuri was... a lot. And makes Sissel decide to make a move he's been pondering for a while now- of course, admitting it was admitting a willingness to accept defeat. And he didn't like that.
But in the end, his concerns were with his team more than himself. So he waits until he can find the doctor alone and approaches]
Doctor Romani... can I talk to you for a bit?
Guest Bedroom
[He had intended to avoid the new rooms completely- after all, he felt in his heart that each room, each clue, was a trap in the end. But curiosity was a hard habit to squash and he IS a cat after all. So he ends up in the Guestroom, sniffing around and peeking his head under the bed. If nothing else this might be a good new hiding spot?]

he blinks when sissel comes up to him, but gives him a small smile and a nod. ]
Sure. What’s up?

also an investigation por favor
well.
she's going to be using magic to enhance her eyesight to check for any visible tripwires prior to entering. will she see anything? if not, she'll just straight up enter.
besides any sorts of investigation, Rin can be found in the halls wandering around--
however.
people will notice that from time to time, she'll actually stumble, putting a hand on a wall to steady herself. is.... is she okay? probably not.
a breather can also be found for her at the library, where she is, in fact perusing the occult section. obviously she's trying to see what this library has on ghosts, curses and the like... but she's mildly curious on books on witches and magic as well.
also feel free to wildcard her, too, if you'd like. she's around.]

Investigation
...still, Dazai's condition, the craziness that everyone else has gotten wrapped up in, mean that she's taking extra care. Just in case.
After she swings the door open, she assumes the form of a porcelain doll and toddles in on small, stiff, patent-leather clad feet. She starts by carefully checking to see if anything lurks beneath the sink...]

[ Food has been on a top priority for Hikage since he arrived, and though the appearance of a pantry should be a good thing, his relief quickly turns to disgust as he takes inventory. He's in the midst of alphabetizing and sorting the cans which includes gizzards, fish mouths, and the occasional semi useful item like a can of a solid duck fat with a big grimace on his face. ]
You'd think there would be at least one canned pineapple in all of this....
ii. Bookerfly
[ Even if the pantry was a giant disappointment, the library isn't. Since Monday Hikage has spent most of his time here browsing through the books, though he doesn't seem to commit to reading any front to back. The geography books get more of a careful consideration than others, but it's still pretty much a fleeting experience. Feel free to find him skimming the stacks or just plain organizing the books—he might also shh you if you're being loud because there's a time and place for everything even in a miasma mansion. ]
iii. Psychadelica
[ Very late in the night Tuesday (arguably more correctly early morning Wednesday) finds Hikage in the library still, settled down at one of the desks, a stack of books beside him. Unlike his prior literary pursuits, this collection of black covered occult volumes has his full attention, and there's barely any attention given to his surroundings at all. Every so often the tap-tap of metal against wood can be heard, the bracelet he wears hitting the desk in an almost rhythmic pattern as he reads.
It happens suddenly, a distinct snap followed by a shatter, as the broach on his bracelet explodes sending dark stained glass everywhere, wisps of purple and tiny pops of black escaping into the air. There's more than several gashes on his wrist but Hikage clutches his head instead, squeezing his eyes shut with a yell and incoherent mumbling. ]
Don't give me that look, it's how things need to be done. If everyone else got it and I didn't, it would be pointless. [ This entire situation is a mess but maybe they'll be no one around to see it? ]

...Is that food?

Maybe another substitute? Except no self respecting Shinigami worth their salt would go completely without their sword, and even one Shinsou's size would still be hard to hide in Hikage's clothes. There was the "trial" to consider too-- Gin would have noticed a sword being released, for the memory trick. He's especially tuned into memory related powers.]
Giving yourself a pep talk?
[[He also isn't going to offer anything for your gashes, either, though.]

Drawing his gun from his coat, he steps into the library cautiously only to hear the sound of Hikage's mumbling.]
Hey, what's-- Hikage?
[Don't mind him just standing here by the entrance with his gun out, it's fine.]

He doesn't really know when he fell asleep, but he's a light sleeper and that snap has him alert and already reaching for senbon. Tip toeing closer to the source, he ducks behind a bookcase when he hears the murmuring. He recognizes the voice of course, but doesn't approach.]
... you better not be such a heavy sleeper that you missed that noise just now.

rolls into iii fashionably late af, bets on this being a fucking mess.gif
This time, though -- of course, the loud noise of the bracelet breaking echoes in the library like a gunshot. It takes another moment or two and a distinctive green radiance from behind the bookshelves before Subete comes into view, cautious behind his barrier because this is that sort of a place, and... and his entire frame is already tense, eyes dark and wary and palm out.
Whatever he was going to do (there was a kanji in his palm, indistinct behind the kanji of the barrier, vanishing as quickly as he'd appeared), it pauses when he sees Hikage and his mess and possible miasma and, hm.]
I doubt you're talking to me at this point, but I'm afraid I'll be the only one answering. [his head is tilted as he moves slightly closer to inspect the state of everything, though he stays cautiously out of reach] Hikage. What did you do?

Investigation!
[Tuesday morning finds Gin in the pantry deciding to see what they could find here. Hopefully, the answer isn't "more spiders" or, particularly, any kind of butterfly.
He's also brought someone hopefully perfect for the job, full of ability to navigate the human world.]
ii.
[Later, Gin is in the dining room, a package of dried fruit in front of him. Rations have been getting slim, the pantry isn't a long term solution, and he's lucky enough to have brought at least some kind of food in with him.
Maybe if he likes you, or you're more useful fed than hungry, he'll share a couple.]
iii.
[Even later, Gin is... slumped over in the library? Maybe the books weren't enticing enough? There is one in his hands right now...]
iv. wildcard
[have fun!!]
pantry adventures
As they enter, he'll keep an eye out for any hidden (or not hidden) tripwires, potential tiles (ceiling and floor) that may be out of place, weird gaps in any of the walls, floor and ceiling that may indicate where something may spring out... etc.. Basically my point is he'll be vigilant about this thing, no one needs to lose a limb or their head today.
Also he has a pool cue with him.]

ii persimmons!! persimmons!!!
So he's shuffling in with a rather unappetizing-looking block of meal-adjacent stuff (still better than whatever Flayn and sundry are cooking up in the kitchen, god why the pantry, why) when he spots Gin and the goods. There's a tilt of his head.]
... Oh. Now that's something I haven't seen much of lately. What a luxurious thing to bring on a mission.
[It's not disapproving, actually. In fact, he seems bemused to see the things, not in a bad way.]

copycat time
This is really not unusual. He's walking around, sleeping curled up in various areas, occasionally making swipes at people's shoelaces. Just cat things.
The thing is, though... if you're someone who can see the supernatural... that doesn't quite look like Sissel, despite being the right size and shape and color. Even with that ability to see the supernatural it might take a second glance or two to spot the differences, the horns and tusk-like fang and double tails. Once you notice that, it's obvious that this cat isn't the one you thought it was.
But if you aren't paying attention and just assume that's Sissel? Who knows what might happen.]

[ after the whole disaster in the renovation room, romani needs...some time alone.
he'll be found sitting on a table, his head resting on his arms on the table. or, to be more precise, on the old sherlock holmes book that gilgamesh had given him just a couple weeks ago.
he's not sleeping--as if he could, after seeing that--but he doesn't seem to be very responsive. unless you call for him, of course. ]
Pantry
[ even later, once he'll go to the pantry, staring at a.... whatever this is. ]
...Any chance we can make that thing edible?

[ Time to break him out of his room. He waits until is around before slipping into Room. ]
I brought some pillows. Maybe if we tuck them under the blanket they won't know you left?
[ HE KNOWS ITS A DUMB IDEA but look it might work? ]
[ Open to All: ]
[ If anyone checks the new bathroom on Tuesday night, they will find the door is unlocked. Sitting inside is Mo Xuanyu in a set of white robes. There are bubbles and water in the tub. Waving his hand at anyone who comes in. ]
Hello. I can scoot over if you want to climb in.
[ Is he being serious? Who even knows. ]
[ Later, he can be found in the library pulling out any books about music at the time. He's twirling his flute between his fingers as he scans the covers. ]
Do you think we can find any sheet music here?
