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?

[Her voice is raised for once as she looks over at Yachi.]
no subject
[She stands on unsteady legs, leaving her bloody shirt behind on the floor, to hit the lights and get a better look at poor battler.]
no subject
Looks like the hit knocked him out and tore open a minor gash on his scalp.]
no subject
[ yes, romani actually sounds frustrated at yachi, looking up from treating rosa to a point where she isn’t exactly bleeding to death. with the veins ligated, he’ll be stitching up the gash. ]
Marona, I know it’s too much to ask, but please heal Battler if you can.
no subject
[She rakes a hand through her bangs, leaning shakily against the wall.]
I could—I could've stayed over him, for... for half an hour, but that's it. I—I don't know how to b-banish things like th-that...!
no subject
[So they know. But she does get up and move to Battler, gathering up the last of her power to cast one last mega heal - reduced to merely a heal.
She's done for today.]
no subject
After the heal is done - he groans, eyes fluttering open.]
...Huh....what...? What - happened - w-why am I...in a bathroom...? Agh, my head...
no subject
[Her lips twitch, eyes watching Romani's expression... it's more apparent than the words being said, with the sound of her heart beating in her ears.
She doesn't know what's happening but she knows it's bad. The pain in her throat that intensifies with every breath...]
no subject
instead, he’ll reach for his second to last sedative, injecting it into rosa’s arm.
he looks up to where marona’s doing her heal, his gaze focused. ]
If you can, please take him away to his room, Marona. I’ll...deal with Rosa. [ and then yachi. ] What will you do, Yachi?
no subject
[She rakes her hand through her hair, making a mental list.
She's still shaking, faintly.]
no subject
no subject
out.]
no subject
Though as he's carried, he sees Rosa on the floor, Romani working on her, and the blood -]
...Aunt....Rosa....
[Maybe it's because of the concussion, but he doesn't cry.
Or maybe it's just because it's a scene he's seen countless times - her lying on the floor, covered in blood.
He's helpless, anyway. Helpless...and ultimately -
'This....is my fault......isn't it...?']
no subject
still, he swallows it down to look at yachi. ]
Tape the mirror, sure. But you cannot investigate this alone! Look at what happened!
[ he sounds frustrated. and that’s because he IS frustrated. if marona hadn’t been there then there’s no doubt that she— ] We can’t lose anyone else, Yachi. Not now.
no subject
[She checks to make sure Battler is gone, then pushes off the wall, beginning to look around the bathroom from the threshold, a momentary concession to the doctor's worries.]
I can't be hurt when I'm not human. I—my first idea was to do this with... with me in there sort of a-alone as something Rosa-san could yank out quick, but she... she suggested we bring in Battler, so nothing would h-happen.
[She scrubs a hand over her face and inhales once, deep and sharp, before expelling the breath and continuing to study the room.]
I-I thought... by asking other p-people to help, we'd be safer, but I just—but I'm the only one who...!
[...no.
No, focus, Hitoka.
Has anything in the bathroom changed?]
no subject
There's nothing new anywhere.]
no subject
no subject
[ he can’t even bring himself to argue anymore, honestly. he has to take care of rosa, although picking her up is a little difficult—he’s not exactly strong, after all. ]
I’ll be in room 5. Please come check with me when you’re done.
no subject
[She moves to rip the note that started this off the wall, then shift into coiled drain snake form.
She checks the pipes attache to the sink, tub drain, and even the toilet while in that form.]

no subject
You get the impression this room was just meant as a trap...]
no subject
[She looks at the damned note again, and...
...
No. She won't rip it. She'll keep it so they can recognize it if they see it again.]
...dammit.
[She backtracks to her room, takes out the duct tape, and plasters over the mirror entirely, before slumping off to Room 5.]
...nothing. The most we got from it is a sample of handwriting we know we can't trust, now.
