WEEK THREE
WEEK THREE
28 Guests
You awaken smothered in wonderfully soft blankets. If you are lucky, there is a warm body next to you, but... those are becoming shorter and shorter in supply, aren't they?
It's Monday at ChΓ’teau Ambregris, and you have just arrived here. Whatever clothes you are wearing, whatever injuries you are sporting... They are once again accurate to how you were before this tale began. Whether this leaves you with any urgent matters to take care of or relieved of ailing you had contracted in the 'last' week, the gong of the numerous clocks chimes out indifferently to the hour. Gone is the urgent summons of the past two weeks, with no Witch to greet you.
Rise and shine, and face your 'first' day in your 'new' home! And though you may now think yourself quite familiar with it, maybe another look around wouldn't hurt?
TIME LOOP:
-Characters wake up with the clothes they had with them at their canon point, like in the intro log.
-The state of their bodies is exactly the same as it was on the intro log (for better or worse).
-Any items they accumulated last week are also reset (sorry you'll need to build up your weapon cache again), except items that were given out as event rewards. Please note that the item uses are not reset.
LOCATIONS UPDATED:
- library, gardens
- mud bath β aquarium
- menagerie β photography studio
- grotto β greenhouse

WEEKLY EFFECT
This week every character will have a spirit animal that follows them around like a familiar. The choice of animal is up to you (natural or supernatural), but it should represent them in some way. The animal is restricted in size to that of a large dog and is incorporeal, though it can interact with other spirit animals. As the animal is a representation of their heart and inner self, it might be better at expressing itself than it's owner.
Yes, this is basically daemons. This palace clearly needs more animals for emotional support!

[Sariel looks up at the little bird, remarkably unflummoxed. There's an ant chilling on his shoulder, waggling its antennae.]
It's kind of you.
[????]
no subject
But I haven't done anything.
[ though since sariel isn't getting closer, the robin stops its vicious attack, settling on ayaka's shoulder instead. it's not mirroring the ant, what are you talking about? ]
no subject
[He's reaching up to pet his little ant. Pet pet.]
no subject
... ]
I can feel a sort of connection to it, but I don't think I have any part that's connected to me that's this loud and eager to pick a fight.
[ maybe if he were talking about opposites, then maybe she would agree there, but her core? no, she's nowhere near this bold. ]
no subject
[This is outside his mental paygrade, anyways.]
It just doesn't show on your face.
no subject
[ if she were this loud and obnoxious, what would be the point of pretending to be a meek person? honestly, if that's the case, then this bird should be linked to saber, inste--
...oh. ]
You know what, never mind. Do you feel represented by an ant?
no subject
[Okay, never mind. He nods.]
Yes. Though...maybe not exactly the same as before.
no subject
[ she tilts her head to the side. ]
How so?
no subject
[A low sigh.]
But I don't...do any of that. Anymore. But I still...like them. Hardworking. They do things for...others. And I have yet to find out why I exist.. as I am right now.
no subject
[ she nods, empathetic. ]
For, uh, what it's worth, you've always been very nice to people here, I think. So maybe you're...more like an ant than you think?
[ she can't believe that she just made that comparison, but it is coming from a genuine place. sariel has been nothing but kind to her and the people she has seen. she would like him to know that. ]
no subject
[His eyes look a little wide, surprised, before they ease back with a smile. Its
..complicated, now. He still remembers what the Deputy Head said all that time ago.]
[You really were a good soldier ant.]
[But he knows Ayaka means it sincerely, and that makes all the difference.]
Thank you. You're a really nice person, Ayaka.
no subject
[ she really is trying to give this ant thing a positive spin but lord, the more she tries, the more silly it sounds to her. ]
It's... a really big ant, though.
[ they do not get ants like that in japan! ]
holy random line break batman
[Again petting it.]
What's your bird?
HELP I NEVER NOTICED
[ she turns towards the bird, raising an eyebrow as she tries to identify it. ]
Not sure, actually. It's a songbird for sure, but I've never seen one of these in Japan.
no subject
[Hmmm.]
So it produces music. That must be nice.
no subject
[ the bird chirps out a happy tune in response. ]
no subject
[this is how it works obviously]
no subject
ayaka just stares at it. ]
no subject
[Lot to say, he thinks.]
Very beautiful. Well done. [He claps.]
no subject
Really, if it wants to sing that much, it should be in the garden.
[ but to that, the bird only goes from her shoulder to the top of her head, as if to say that it is absolutely NOT leaving. ]
no subject
[just]
