Murder Mysterium - Day 5
Who: You!
Where: The Game Tower
When: TBD - Day 5
[ When morning comes, you find yourselves more than freed from your rooms—the mansion collapses behind the last person leaving, completely and utterly demolished. There might be a couple rooms left standing, but . . . you certainly can't have a murder mystery game like this.
The game isn't quite over yet, though.
You may access the twin garden mazes, encouraged, even—there are alcoves in the gardens with flowers wrapping around the gates that are to your unit's color, and upon entering them you'll be able to speak to your unitmates without fear of being overheard, as though there were some sort of soundproofing barrier. You may only enter your unit-specific alcove. There are also plenty of other non-unit specific alcoves for you to enter and converse with someone, but it won't be entirely private—these pockets don't have soundproofing. Players should comment to relevant private threads that are being eavesdropped.
But before you run off to discuss—
You'll want to gather around the fountain.
Its water's stopped, though rather than any stillness in water you can instead see . . .
The details of each murder, as well as the rules, are available on your phones, and in fact, that and the photos app are the only things you can access on your phone right now. Your powers are off too, although you were allowed to bring whatever items are ordinarily on your person—provided they aren't any weapons. ]

The tension eases out of him as he slumps a little more against the pillar. ]
You're right. And it's wrong of me to expect anyone here, "regular" or not, to "be used to" to death happening, especially if it's people they care about.
Re: gets on the fountain soapbox ledge to throw a fit.
That... and... I would be struggling all alone right now if not for you and Childe. Maybe seeing it is a little too much of a reminder that I should consider myself lucky.

[ He pulls his hand back, seeing that Aether seems to be in better spirits and hums to himself thoughtfully. ]
And while it's true that you may be more fortunate in some aspects knowing some of us here, that too, has its drawbacks.
Use that to your advantage but do not think that you should forgo what is important to you just because you think you have it easier. Everyone's situation is different here. I do not know if they are even comparable.
Re: gets on the fountain soapbox ledge to throw a fit.
I don't know what I would do without you. Thanks for everything. Back home and here too.
Re: gets on the fountain soapbox ledge to throw a fit.
You would persevere as you always do.
But I am glad - selfish as it may be - that I am allowed to accompany you on this section of your journey.
