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! ))

It’s a good reason. It’s better than me trying to kill someone—- right? [She glances at him, her voice suddenly smaller.] Like… if someone has to die—-

[violentenvies]

...no, in fact, I think...it makes it worse. I don't particularly want to weigh lives against each other, because I don't like the idea that anyone's life here is worth more or less than the others but...

[he shifts, turning to look at her fully]

...you might've already died, but you're alive now, Farrah. Just because you might not be alive any more in your own dimension does not mean that your life is worth any less than the others here.

[brokeforgood]

[When he looks at her, she’s fully sulking. She expected him to understand more, and isn’t pleased with the disagreement.]

Are you sure? Cuz… It feels like it’s worse for someone not already dead to die.

[violentenvies]

...I can imagine it does. But also...I must admit that I have a bias when it comes to you. I would be very, very upset if anything were to ever happen to you, Farrah.

[brokeforgood]

[She continues to pout, for…. a few seconds as she processes what he says, then she sits up.]

Yeah? Well. I only asked. I didn’t actually do anything. You don’t have to worry.

I wouldn’t trade everyone here, just to fix things at home. I wouldn’t give up my new family for anything.

[violentenvies]

[Salieri's expression softens at that, and there's relief there, too]

I wouldn't, either.

This family is far more important to me than anything back home.

[brokeforgood]

[Farrah bumps against his shoulder with hers, roughly.]

My life back there's already over. I might as well move forward with this one.

Someone has to keep an eye on you, anyway.

[violentenvies]

[that makes him chuckle] I'll rely on you then.
