Week Two

[stagemanagers]

[Last week, no murder happened! Instead, a lot of students started work on Salieri's school play, which sounds pretty cool even though it's gonna be short, several people destroyed Bigfoot and got a few mysterious clues, and Orpheus started a fire in the kitchen! All in all, not a bad first week!

Though some people might have gone to talk to Hester, she hasn't made any more public announcements. There's some new papers posted up around the cafeteria, but it looks like it's just your upcoming lunch schedule. Seems like nothing's driving you towards Rule Five except, perhaps, all of the kidnapping and how criminally boring some of you are finding the school. Maybe the Balladeer is right, and you really can just wait this out? Only time will tell!]


Sunday | Monday | Tuesday | Wednesday | Thursday

(( No new locations this week, since y'all haven't paid in blood! Hester's office hours are still open, as are regains! Make sure to complete your first activity check by Tuesday! ))

[Angus takes a large swig of the mead. He's seen the Hootsman down a pint of beer in seconds, but to be fair, that beer was much thinner than this drink. He ends up having to pause for breath halfway through.]

How long it has been since I've had mead! Please, you must try some, Your Highness!

[He dips a cup into the barrel and hands it over to Elsa.]

[Oh well that's! Forward! Elsa only laughs, though, and takes the cup from him.]

Is the alcohol very strong in this? [... Not that she's judging his cheer or anything. It's just a genuine question.] I admit, I've never had any kind of alcohol in any meaningful quantity before. I'm not sure how this will affect me.

[mcfife]

It is not too strong, though that may depend on the batch. The sweetness is what matters most.

[Swig.]

Still good.

[defyingfrigidity]

[Well, she doesn't swig it like he does, but Elsa will take a tiny sip...... and then another. There's a curious spark in her eyes as the drink hits her, and she looks down into her cup, somewhat surprised.]

Oh... wow. I can certainly understand now how easy it would be to, ah... go a bit overboard with this drink.

[mcfife]

It's a good thing that Salieri didn't make too much. [Angus takes a seat and gestures for Elsa to sit as well.] But a bit of mead is needed for any gathering of friends, especially after a hard day's work.
