Week Four

[stagemanagers]

[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! ))

[Cassandra is very, very silent for a good few seconds, staring down at the mirror in her hands.]

I haven't deserved anything, all my life. [It's bitter, but not directed at Eurydice, but at herself.] My own mother abandoned me for someone else, so... how is this any different?

[ Eurydice doesn't really know what to say, there. Sorry your mother abandoned you rings hollow. People do that all the time, anyway. Mothers included.

Instead: ]

Did you...find someone else? To stick by you? [ she's got Orpheus, after all. It doesn't make up for the people who've turned on her, but it helps. ]

[That... is so out of left field that it actually stops Cassandra in the throes of whatever numbered breakdown this was.

She blinks.] W-what?

[Somehow, she manages to reply] Uhh... I.. I guess? I have a new dad. Friends. Well, I guess I did. Friends... here, too.

[ okay, that's good. much better than a no.

gentle, yet firm: ] Then they're the ones who matter. Not -- not some old lady who happens to be related to you. [ Eurydice thinks about her own parents, for the first time in what feels like years. Are they alive? Probably not, but she hates that she doesn't know. ] It's...bad, when the family you were born into turns on you. But if you can make a new one, that's -- that's good.
