Week Four

[Last week, Gershwin High School Academy University saw its very first intentional murder! What a milestone! And right after Spongebob's No Murder party, too - that doesn't seem like it bodes very well for anybody's future.

You all wake up this morning with yet another new memory returned to you. You'll also find that the school's external doors have now unlocked. Congratulations! You're free! Unfortunately, you also seem to be entirely in the middle of nowhere. So maybe it's more of a symbolic victory.

Still, you should look around and do some investigation! Maybe you'll find a fun surprise.]


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! ))

Why? Looking to get revenge in my name? [She doesn’t give him a chance to reply.]

Williams. The bitch that murdered me is named Riley Williams.

[He doesn't register the gentle tap, but when the pressure registers his breath goes shallow again and his eyes briefly go wide and panicked.

Safe. He's safe here. His heart is still racing, but slowly the overwhelming sensation is becoming more and more bearable.]


...The academy. I'm still here.

[He looks down at himself as if taking stock of his limbs.]

I'm still...

[His face twitches.]

Then I met her.

We were prisoners together.

Oh? Um, sure, okay. Thank you. [ And he'll go.

It's some nebulous amount of time later, when he shows up in the Band Room, still looking sort of dazed and confused but no longer in such a frantic rush. There's grass stains on his nice white jacket and red pants, but that's fine, they were already covered in paint anyway.

Farrah?

Oh, he um... [ man how does she explain it, she's still not sure what happened, it was a lot. ]

He had some kind of... episode? He collapsed and had a really bad fever and seemed really upset...

[ Oh, that's cute. Orpheus hasn't actually talked to Rina much since she started with the notebook thing, but it does make her expressions much easier to parse. ]

Boys generally like the same foods as anyone else. [ he says, oblivious. That's a bit of a weird thing to specify! ] If you're going on a picnic though, maybe something that's easy to pack up and keeps well when it's warm out would be a good idea? It's hard to go wrong with sandwiches.

[ ... About corruption and betrayal-"
"And getting hit by a bus!"


Janis internally shakes it off, then smiles. ]


I got nowhere else to be.

[Farrah is almost unrecognizable as the girl Orpheus knows—- she’s bent over the piano, dutifully plucking away, and there are beginner books scattered around her. She jerks upright when he enters the room, and smiles when she realizes who it is.]

Orpheus! You know music, right?
brokeforgood: (farrah23)

[personal profile] brokeforgood 2021-06-21 12:27 am (UTC)(link)
What?

Red hair, control freak Riley? What the fuck did you do to be a prisoner with a straight up murderer?!
brokeforgood: (farrah12)

[personal profile] brokeforgood 2021-06-21 12:32 am (UTC)(link)
Whoa. Today? [Farrah looks slightly nervous.]

Is he okay now?

Prisoners, as in held together with other people in building, with similar rules about murder.

[He glances back at the school.]

But it wasn't a school. It was an opera house, lead by a man named The Phantom. [It sounds so ridiculous. It has to be unbelievable to her ears.] Riley, other people, a king, a small girl, an alien...a boy named Jeremy, but it's probably a coincidence. I don't think we had anything in common.
brokeforgood: (farrah21)

[personal profile] brokeforgood 2021-06-21 12:42 am (UTC)(link)
But like—- Riley deserves that. What did you do?

I don’t deserve this. I’m the victim. So like.... who did you kill?
mcfife: (🦄 of an ancient and powerful wizard)

[personal profile] mcfife 2021-06-21 12:43 am (UTC)(link)
Goblins? Chaos wizards?

[What did the little sweet girl do? Not listen to her mother?]

Why were any of us here? Did you do something wrong?
brokeforgood: (farrah23)

[personal profile] brokeforgood 2021-06-21 12:48 am (UTC)(link)
No! Riley killed me, not the other way around!

Maybe the chaos goblins had a family.

[ Peregrine looks up with a start. She's usually always vigilant, usually always watching. You'd think in the woods she'd be even more so.

And yet, she's just reading and re-reading the letter in silence, so when Varian finds the garden, when he speaks up, she doesn't have her characteristic attentive air. She actually looks surprised, for a moment. ]


Yeah. ...They...have to be, right?
comeandfindme: (strike!)

[personal profile] comeandfindme 2021-06-21 01:02 am (UTC)(link)
[ ...Taking inventory. Right. She— she was going to do that. Should do that. Everything just seems a little...difficult right now— ]

Orpheus?

[ She holds out a sketchpad. On top of it, there are two friendship bracelets of familiar colors. ]

There's a letter in it. It's from Connor.

[personal profile] fourbutts 2021-06-21 01:07 am (UTC)(link)
[ Oh.

Janis takes it, opens up the letter. Reads through it. ]


Heh. Idiot.

[ She said, incredibly fondly. ]

[Elle wakes up in the Longacre dorm with a gasp, sitting straight up.]

That chip on my shoulder.
I have to be bolder.


[She doesn't go to yoga that morning, instead heading straight to the Library and loading up on several book.

Later on she can be found in the courtyard, sitting on a large blanket reading, Bruiser frolicking around nearby.]

I think so... Salieri-san and Maya-san were taking care of him. It was pretty scary though...

[Elle looks up from her books and give Angus a smile that is less enthusiastic than usual.]

It looks like that Phantom of the Opera musical my mom and I went to see when we went to New York a few years ago.

I will not keep you too long, at least. [She says, even as she tucks her head over Janis's chest. World hard and cold, tiddy soft and warm.]

I would hate for you to neglect your care of Graham-san.

They do? That's good... I've only ever gone to all girl schools so I wasn't sure.

Oh! Sandwiches are a great idea! And they're easy too! I'll have to ask what kinds he likes.

He is a fictional character?
fourbutts: (09)

[personal profile] fourbutts 2021-06-21 02:11 am (UTC)(link)
He can wait a while.

[ It's valid, Maya is valid. Janis has no objections. ]
