Week Three

[stagemanagers]

[Last week, some shit went down! Salieri's scene went off without a hitch, but the good mood didn't last. The first motive was a bit of a doozy, and yet it didn't even have anything to do with the eventual accidental death of Mumble Happyfeet! At least Sissi was already pretty much dating Death anyway, right? She's probably fine, wherever she is.

This week, new menus have been posted in the cafeteria. But, more importantly, it seems that other new information has emerged. Everyone wakes on Sunday with some new memories - or are they old ones? - floating around in their heads. Maybe there was something to your discussions of time travel after all. Maybe there was someting to the Wizard's knowledge of the future.

Regardless, you're still stuck in here. At least there's some new places to explore this week. Maybe you'll find something helpful.]

Sunday | Monday | Tuesday | Wednesday | Thursday

(( Be sure to submit your memory regains and your AC for this week! Hester's office hours and the merch booth also remain available! ))

Nnnnnno?

[bro]

[disharmonizes]

[He'll gladly take that.]

Thank you. Well, then.

[Yeah he will absolutely sign this, this is GREAT.]

[You're good. Isn't that just everything she's wanted to hear? She knows she's heard it before, but those days have been long gone-- replaced with both her own mind and her classmate's jabs. She sobs even harder when he says it. She wants it to be true. More than anything.]

I need to know
That I would be loved even when I am my true self (it has to get better)
That I would be good even when I am overwhelmed (I pray it will)
That I would be loved (am I loved?)
Even when I am drinking
I need to hear that I would be good
Even if I was bitchy.

[whatyouwant]

Thank you!

[brokeforgood]

Just because you're used to it doesn't mean it's okay.

[tellthestory]

Oh. I'm sorry.

[For what, he doesn't know, but this doesn't seem like...a happy thing, clearly.]

Did you...remember something, too?

[disharmonizes]

[...this day is starting off great]

And was yours also definitely not just a dream?

[mayavericks]

[Once Discord is done, she'll hand the pen over to Salieri.]

[violentenvies]

[He'll take it, and add his name to the paper, sealing his fate. ]

[barberic]

It's hard to explain. I thought... Yesterday it felt too good to be real, but unlike a dream it didn't fade upon waking. It slotted into place. Like a forgotten memory, shaken loose by a familiar sight, or a smell.

[He only barely is able to take his eyes off of the photograph long enough to look up at Orpheus.]

Coming home after our honeymoon, our little flat, my very own shop... And then Lucy falling pregnant, and Johanna being born, and watching her grow from something this big- [He cups his hands a few inches apart] into the beginnings of a precocious little girl...

You can see how I thought, no matter how right it felt, that it was simply too good to be true. But then I got this. Lucy's present to me for Johanna's first birthday. For me to keep in my shop, so I never had to be a minute without them.

[employeeoftheyear]

[His idea is great!!]

Yeah! Plus if one of us is separated from the others, we would still notice it if they were gone for a noticeable amount of time!

[defyingfrigidity]

[If it was possible, Elsa would look even paler. She's still fidgeting; examining her fingers, pressing her hands to her face, just.... moving, like she's trying to shake some kind of stiffness out of her limbs.]

I don't... I'm... [She can't even choke out an I'm okay. Instead, she just shakes her head.] I don't know. I had the most vivid dream....

[mayavericks]

[Well, since everyone else has done it, Maya will add her name as well, before handing both pen and contract off to Elle.]

I trust you will keep this safe.

[violentenvies]

[Those words wrench something hard in his chest, and he holds her tighter, gently rocking her back and forth a little, rubbing circles onto her upper back, as he sings back]

Come just as you are to me
Don't need apologies
Know that you are worthy
I'll take your bad days with your good
Walk through the storm I would
I do it all because I love you, I love you

Unconditional, unconditionally
I will love you unconditionally
There is no fear now
Let go and just be free
I will love you unconditionally

[employeeoftheyear]

[Honestly this is a much better revelation than the "you are no longer a sponge" thing.]

Then drop on the deck and flop like a fish!
Spongebob Squarepants!

[violentenvies]

One more thing to clarify...her voice had a dream-like quality to it, as though she'd just woken up from a nap.

Re: Rodgers Dorm

[employeeoftheyear]

[Unfortunately the news doesn't exactly hit him well.]

-OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO-

[Oh god please stop him.]

[violentenvies]

Agreed. If there's a better way to keep our plans contained, we should take it.

[violentenvies]

Really? The moment there's something that displeases you, or doesn't agree with what you want to do, you have zero intent to force an agreement out of me?

[His eyes narrow, studying Discord intently]

[mayavericks]

[She's quiet for a long moment.]

Keep her safe, McFife-san. I am trusting you.

[feudalladyshandmaid]

Good morning, Salieri. Hey...

[Cassandra's happy to greet the maestro on this... better-than-yesterday morning, and she's even pleasantly surprised to see that he appears to be setting up...]

You're calling for a meeting?

[disharmonizes]

[he just

raises an eyebrow

bro you good?????]

I'm sorry, is that something you want me to do? You seem very hung up on this.

[employeeoftheyear]

Oh it's great! It's about this teacher who takes her class on these field trips, but they're these great adventures! And it's educational! I think you'd like it since you like science-y stuff.

[He gestures to a seat next to him at the table. Join him!]

[mayavericks]

[Maya glances away from her fondly regarded photo just in time to see... All of that. She lifts her brows, clearly trying to suppress a smile. She's growing soft, dammit.]

Where else, but the place that gives out such nonsense. [She tilts her head.] Are they familiar to you?

[brokeforgood]

Spongeboooooooooobbbbbb Squarepaaaaaaaaaants!

[Honestly, it's probably the most enthused and happy Farrah's seemed in a while. When she's done singing, she's laughing, and it takes her a bit to catch her breath.]

Aw, man, that was fun. You're the best.
