week 5
[That was...an absolute shitshow. More beloved friends are dead in a mess of a trial that's left Angus half the man he was, Riley in a free fall and the Phantom...somehow still standing despite taking two stabs to the torso.
When you wake on Sunday, you'll find that you've recovered another one of those memories - or had another dream, if you still wanna be in denial about it. The door blocking the stairwell on the second floor has been unsealed. You can now venture up to the third floor! You have so much space now, it's just a shame it's all come at the cost of eight lives.
But despite the tragedy you have made progress! The trip into the Phantom's lair yielded some hints to the past of the Opera House, your house manager's apparently grim hobby and the possibility of an ally outside the Opera House. Who knows what this week will bring?]

(( Welcome to Week 5! Please remember to submit your AC and your memory regains, as well as your coins! You can also still contact the Phantom. ))

[He falls silent, studying Nana. It's a bit of an intense stare, Mephisto's brow drawing together the longer it goes on.]
I've known a few like you -- afraid of change. Desperate to stay in one place. And I've dealt with their souls accordingly.
I find it interesting that I feel no such compulsion to do so here. [A beat.] Perhaps we're both learning.

...Can I ask you something without being laughed at?
There’s no... animals in here... right?
no subject
No. Nothing.
[Not even octokitten! Kitchens aren't safe for cat monstrosities, after all!]

[ She sighs with relief, looking back over at the pot. ]
I’m sorry for just... asking that out of the blue. [ It kinda ruined the moment they were having! ] But he won’t... leave me alone.
no subject
I'm followed by my own ghosts as well.
no subject
Would you like... to talk about it?
[ In case maybe it'll help. ]
no subject
How much were you told about Ariel and myself? About our deal?
no subject
...I also know the story of "Faust" where your name appears- though I imagine that isn't the exact same.
no subject
I don't quite remember the deal we struck. But it had to do with the answers Ariel always sought. On Sunday, I remembered --
[He remembers the words by heart now, can sing them exactly as Ariel had.]
Love. Love is the only truth.
Pure as the well of youth,
Until it breaks your heart.
[He shivers, shakes his head, and then continues.]
If he had learned that, then our deal would have been complete. I should have been restored. But -- [He motions to his damaged, sickly wing.]
I keep seeing him. In Heaven. Saved despite everything. And it angers me so.
