WEEK 4
[Another week has passed in the opera house and things are looking grim as ever. With Gabe and Hime gone, the performers are down to 16 of them.

On Monday, the opera house is still heavily decorated with a few new additions. There are more cottony cobwebs, a few small ghosts hanging from the ceiling made of cheesecloth, even more pumpkins here and there. A few more candy bowls have been set out in places like the dining room and a few others and only a few of them are only filled with candy corn. In the dressing rooms the stars on Gabe and Hime's doors have fallen off, leaving behind a patch of star-shaped wood slightly lighter than the rest of the doors on Hime's and a different star underneath on Gabe's.

Like the previous week, the door on in the second floor lobby is unlocked and a new floor is ready to be explored. Have a good week, everyone.]

library, let's investigate!

[trettende]

[ Hans hasn't seen Seymour all week and you gotta admit, the last place he expected to find him was in the library. Normally people are looking for books... ]

Seymour, it's so nice to see you. Did you lose something?

[dontfeedplants]

[Are you calling him illiterate, Hans?

He looks over at Hans uncertainly. It's hard to tell whether it's because of that thing Anna posted or if he was just uneasy about everything.]

Not really, I'm just trying to figure out if there's any information about this place. Anything, really.

[trettende]

[ Shhh, naw, never! Can't become smart about plants without books, right? ]

Ohhh, I see. Good plan. [ Hans is giving off his best concerned/comforting vibes here. He can tell Seymour's upset about something, but considering Anna's smear campaign he can't be sure if it's that or something else. ]

Would you like any help? We could check under 'M' for Management?

[dontfeedplants]

Help would be nice. [This library is huge after all.] But do you think the "Management" thing would be too obvious?

[trettende]

...Probably.

[ Things are never that easy. Hans looks the long line of books over. ]

Well, what do we know about the management? They have lots of money, a flair for the dramatic and no qualms with murder... does that sound like any book you know?

[dontfeedplants]

[He thinks about if for a moment.]

"And Then There Were None" kind of sounds like that, but that's fiction.

[trettende]

It's worth looking into. [ Hans smiles. That's some real progress! ] They might have taken some inspiration from fiction for their actions; after all, they think of us as "actors" in a play.

[dontfeedplants]

You're right. If they were inspired by anything, it's probably going to be a work of fiction, wouldn't they?

[Well they might as well go to the section and see if there's anything interesting going on.]

[trettende]

Yes, exactly. This whole time they've been treating us like characters from a story. Maybe if we look at it like that, we can predict what they have planned next.

[ Hans unfortunately doesn't have any knowledge of modern literature so he's gonna have to defer to Seymour here. You're the boss now, Seymour! ]
