thefoundation | 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?

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

[ahhhhhh this always happens with her doesn't it]

[alas]

Guess I'll just have to play along with getting 'screwed over', I suppose.

[Sho's smile is very unpleasant. He rises into the air, his six wings folding out behind him. ]

Drown in the sea of imaginary numbers!!

[Then he vanishes, and reappears with the sound of static behind Rin, wings curling like strange, long fingered hands. Then, all at once, he stabs her through the chest and abdomen, the digits of his wings looking like twenty barbed, two dimensional spears. But there's no blood, no physical damage. Just miasma, pure and simple, injected right into her soul]

[she's caught pretty much off guard because the moment he says that she's already defensive but clearly not fast enough, not quick enough--

and of course, she sees herself get stabbed and for a second she's like,

ah,

of course......

she's a Tohsaka, after all. she can do the second most important thing, maybe even the third. but the first? she always flubs at. but she then realizes that there's no physical pain and yet--

she staggers anyway as she's caught by the miasma, down on the ground her hands clenched into tight, balled fists as she tries to catch herself. just give her a moment, she's just gonna be down here stewing in her thoughts]

[Sho retracts his wings, and with the arrowhead-shaped ends to the digits, it's probably a good thing there's no physical pain. He folds his arms and flares his wings before letting them fade away into static]

Let that be a lesson to the rest of you sons of digits. That's only a fraction of the Curse's power. Class dismissed!
