WEEK 3
[The past weekend has been a difficult one. With Valjean's murder and D-ne's brutal execution the monotony has been broken and it can be said the show is finally and truly underway.

When the performers emerge from their rooms on Monday morning the decor of the opera house has changed. Not drastically but someone was busy during the night with some redecorating. There are cobwebs draped over nearly everything, some of them with tiny plastic spiders stuck in the cotton webbing, and pumpkins of various sizes on the floor and on the tables. Some of the walls have been adorned with cartoon-ish paper skeletons and scarecrows and in the ballroom a poseable plastic skeleton has been posed at the piano looking ready to play. Someone's even set a bowl of candy on the counter of the merch booth.

But that's not all. There's a light coming from the now open doorway in the lobby that had been previously locked for the past two weeks. This new floor is similarly decorated but why not go have a look and explore for yourself?

Despite their losses, the show must go on after all.

[Anna looks over.]

Hm? No, not really. I was just thinking about the secrets thing from yesterday.

[rockthistown]

I knooow. It's not even fair! Mine was terrible. I was afraid people would hate me for it back home, and you've only known me for a little while! Was yours bad?

[sunshineprincess]

I don't think anyone could hate you! [Ah...] I think so. To me at least.

[rockthistown]

I'm sorry. Did Natalie make you share it, too?

[sunshineprincess]

[She shakes her head.] No. I chose to share it with her.

[rockthistown]

I'm sorry! She's a nice person, really! Well, sometimes not, but I think she really wants to help!

[sunshineprincess]

She does... and I'm glad. She's helped me a few times already.

[rockthistown]

She didn't even get mad at me about my secret. I thought she might. Some people back home were nice about it, but other people held grudges for a while, so it's scary.

[sunshineprincess]

She wasn't mad about mine, either... she understood, which I didn't think anyone would. [It was strange but nice.] She has a big heart. I don't think she could really dislike anyone here.

[rockthistown]

Maybe she's right that the best thing is for everyone to find out. But it's still really scary, it's not something you just get over.

[sunshineprincess]

I know... [Why does all of this have to be so hard?] She's really smart.

[rockthistown]

And even if sometimes she's mean, she can give us hope, too? It's confusing, but I think it's true.

[sunshineprincess]

I hope she can leave with the rest of us. She deserves to be happy just as much as we do! Mean or not.

[rockthistown]

I just want us all to go home. They might have nice things in here, but I'm sick and tired of it already!

[sunshineprincess]

I do miss Arendelle... The mountains, the harbor, walking around the gardens and riding...

[rockthistown]

We don't have TV in here! I can hardly sleep without all my stuffed animals! And back on Earth, we'd watch Seiji practice at the dojo or go to Yuuko's family's shop and get lunchboxes... I miss Earth. And the Blue Sky Kingdom, too.

[sunshineprincess]

Do you think everyone here misses their home?

[rockthistown]

Of course! Wouldn't they? Well, maybe not Jezebel. Nobody wants to live there.

[sunshineprincess]

You think maybe she could come home with one of us?

[rockthistown]

Probably! We'd have to see what she thinks, but I doubt anybody wants to live in hell.
