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 โ wintering room
- photography studio โ 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.

But Gโraha canโt help but smile anyway. ]
Good to hear from you again, friend.
no subject
and really wishes that a hat could smile. he'll try to make it up with his voice, at least. ]
Likewise.
I'm sorry to have left such a large burden on your shoulders.
[ and never one cluing g'raha into his plans. ]
no subject
Somehow, I believe I will manage. Though knowing what you had in store for us would have been of great helpโฆ
[ But itโs fine. ]
Even so, I believe I speak for all of us when I say I am thankful.
no subject
I'm truly sorry about that! I couldn't risk anyone knowing about my gamble other than the person who would be helping me carry it out.
[ who he is immensely grateful for following through. ]
And we'll be even more thankful when we're brought back. The ideal outcome of this, right?
no subject
I understand, though I fear I owe you a lecture on cooperation nevertheless.
[ But itโs not like he wouldnโt have done something similar at another point in time. ]
You are right, however. We will reach the ideal outcome. I refuse any less.
no subject
[ he may be chuckling a little bit again but he means this. his actions could have costed him so, so much more than just his life. ]
Just a little more to go. You know I'll refuse to do any less myself.
no subject
[ Itโs a relief, to have this encouragement again. ]
I look forward to fighting by your side again, my friend.
no subject
Likewise.
[ ... ]
Though, I hope that I'll be able to take part in what comes of all of this as myself and not just my hat.
