WEEK FOUR
WEEK FOUR
25 Guests
The day is rung in by a myriad clocks tolling at once.
It's a familiar sound. It's the first time you're hearing it.
Once again, Monday is upon you, and once again you have just arrived at the castle to meet your new roommates. The last week is gone without a trace - nothing there to remind you of its existence. Injuries have been replaced with the old aches you may have felt before coming here, keepsakes have vanished and decorations have returned to their original state.
Formally, this is a clean slate and a fresh start. But that's not how it feels in your mind - your bodies may be rewound, but your hearts are steadily continuing, carrying the weight of a time that never was.
As always, the castle is new and old at once. Static, yet ever-changing. The curious minds among you may find it a good idea to explore a little.
TIME LOOP:
-Characters wake up with the clothes they had with them at their canon point, like in the intro log unless you wish to have them affected by the weekly effect as early as Monday.
-The state of their bodies is still exactly the same as it was on the intro log (for better or worse). This is independent of the weekly effect.
-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:
- garden, library, promenade
- aquarium → wintering room
- photography studio → tea room

WEEKLY EFFECT
This week the castle's whims have decided to put on a little fashion show! Characters may awaken to find themselves dressed in an outfit that they have once worn... or an outfit that they might have worn, in a future that has never come to pass. These clothes are not period-accurate and instead reflect the characters' own lives and thus worlds! It's time to shine in an outfit you absolutely love - or absolutely loathe!
The drawback is that these magical clothes also cannot be removed until sundown. Whatever outfit you woke up in? You're stuck in it! The only way to escape your dress-up fate is to damage the clothing, but if you do so you'll find yourself stuck naked until the beginning of the next day. The castle's strange properties do at least provide a little cloud of mist that will follow characters around for modesty reasons.
The new clothes will remain after the day of their appearance. They'll lose all strange properties and become garments that can simply be worn or discarded at will, like all other clothing.

no subject
promise the next letter after that isn't "a". ]
no subject
[ another dead? except you said it isn't so what could it be... ]
no subject
for a change of pace. ]
no subject
she can think of a few words with that, so she'll go back to start to see what the next letter is. ]
no subject
because that's the next time the hat will react. ]
no subject
Mm…Destiny? Destroy?
[ just in case, she goes back to the start. ]
no subject
"r" is the next letter it'll react to, expectantly. ]
no subject
[ ‘destr’… hm. ]
Destruction? Destructive?
no subject
it'll react to her first guess and remain still for her second one. ]
no subject
‘hedge, connection, memory, dead, destructive.’
…
she picks up the hat again. ]
Is there something else?
no subject
but the hat no longer moves and just leans into her right hand. ]
no subject
So is there’s something in the hedge… that needs to be destroyed? To connect with the dead?
[ she looks puzzled. sorry sabo, you ended up being picked by the normiest of all. ]
no subject
but the hat doesn’t really react to that. give it a moment to "decide"; eventually it wobbles back and forth. ]
no subject
but if the hat is…nodding? she’ll also nod. ]
Okay, I’ll tell some of the others and see what we can do there. Is that good?
no subject
the hat isn't nodding but it seems to accept what she proposes to do. no complaints. ]
no subject
[ she’s picking up the sabo hat and taking it with her. enjoy the field trip! ]
no subject
field trip! the hat doesn’t show excitment but it doesn’t complain. ]
