Week 7

[stagemanagers]

[Last week, on It's Curtains...boy, that sure was a year-long week, huh?

But despite it all, you've gotten through it with less death than there might have been. Spongebob and Farrah both survived their ill-conceived plan; Maya, with the intervention of Janis and Hester, survived her triple murder. Since the failed execution, there has been no sign of the Wizard or of Hester. It seems like you may have gotten away with that cleanly!

When you wake up on Sunday, you remember everything. All the gaps, the missing pieces, entire chunks of time from back home - they're back and neatly fitted where they should be in your heads. Elle, Orpheus, and Eurydice have also been given graves alongside the others in the garden. These ones were filled in for you; after all, you were all pretty occupied over the weekend.

Other than that...it seems like some unusual posters have been put up around the school. Sounds like something's going to happen this week. You'd better prepare.]

Sunday | Monday | Tuesday

(( As per usual, endgame will ICly take place on Wednesday, so get those last threads in! As this is the last week, all characters should be at their true canonpoint memory-wise. Feel free to continue submitting regains and...well, you can certainly try to visit Hester. No AC this week, but be sure to check in for endgame! ))

[She can't judge Angus, he's been through a lot, including losing the love of his life. On her approach, she notes Bruise and his pillow pile, and the hard dents Angus' hammer is making in the trees. It's so much... more. Not like the sparring session they had in the gym.]

You're going to be ready when a fight happens.

[Not if.]

[The Gloryhammer slams into the trunk one more time with a horrifying crack. Angus steps away. If this thing falls, he doesn't want to be responsible for a death.]

I will. Unlike last time, I am going to kill The Wizard.

[feudalladyshandmaid]

So am I. Most of us are going to be going for him, I'll bet.

[Cassandra watches the tree shudder without a flinch. If anyone deserved to work off some of their frustrations, it was Angus.

Nodding towards him, she rested a hand on the hilt of her blade.]

I'll let you have the first crack at him.

[mcfife]

[He knows better than to go at it alone. Stopping SQUIPnel was a group effort. He was stabbed by the Knife of Evil while engaging in one-on-one combat. He needs someone with a rapid fighting style by his side.]

An opening strike. One to stun him, them the next to target his vital organs. Do you think you can easily get a hit on an older man?

[feudalladyshandmaid]

I can run a blade through someone. Anyone can, if they want to try hard enough.

[Which is to say, in case she doesn't make it...]

I've taken down my own dad, the captain of the guard. So I should be able to take on a giant head. Or whatever's inside it.

[mcfife]

"Taken down"?

[Is that a poetic way of saying you have slain your evil father?]

[feudalladyshandmaid]

...Defeated. Just - I've sparred with him, in the past. I'm pretty good at it.

[God... She recoils at the mere thought.]

Not- I love my dad.

[mcfife]

[Okay good, Cassandra has a nice family waiting for her.]

Then with the two of us [And Maya] we can kill him.

...


Your father must have taught you a lot for you to be able to win in a sparring match.
