Week 3

[bathymetric]

Good morning, New Rapture. A new day is dawning.

It's a strange sort of feeling, waking up on Sunday. Not the least because, well... you fell asleep on Friday, didn't you? Whether you sleep or not, none of you remember Saturday. Everything, by all accounts, seems to be Sunday. Weird.

It's not all bizarre feelings of lost time that you have to show for your efforts, though - it seems that another wing of New Rapture is ready for you. Perhaps there's more information to be found about your situation there... and maybe more about the history of this place, if that interests you.

There are still 23 of you left... Keep getting to know them. There's regains to get, after all!




SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY

[That would be helpful, yes!]

I am - it's honestly the best place we've been given so far. I like being able to work with my hands a bit more; it makes me feel useful, and I like it when things come together in a way I can see and touch.

[sixthnonsense]

Glad to hear it! We really needed the morale booster, for sure.

[And he means that genuinely. It's unspoken, but obviously it sucks that the new locations had to come at such a high price. But in the end it keeps them going, and it's not like they have to thank Fontaine personally for keeping them entertained.]

Didja see that there's a clinic too? Now you don't gotta rely on scraps of clothes!

[visiblepattern]

I did, which is an absolute godsend. I admit I don't know what a fair amount of the things in there do, however...

[Modern medicine: literal goddamn witchcraft.]

[sixthnonsense]

Oh, you...don't?

[Apparently he has never questioned what sort of era Forrest is from.]

Well I could give a few pointers, I guess. I'm no expert, but you kinda learn what some things do as you get older anyway.

[In fairness, the dress he usually wears is casual, and doesn't look out of place here. So it's understandable, really.]

Oh, could you...? I'd like that - it can only benefit us to have several people who know how things work in there.

[sixthnonsense]

Yeah! Plus medicine can be real dangerous if you don't know what you're doing, but I'm guessing you figured that already.

[...Forrest doesn't seem like the kind of Ye Olde to create an overdose fiasco.]

But yeah, whenever you're taking a break from making clothes, feel free to hunt me down. I'm literally always desperate for something to do.

[visiblepattern]

[Thankfully, he is not! He tries not to feed anyone anything if he isn't certain he knows what it does.]

I admit I'm less accustomed to medication like this, just in general... Midori usually handles the medicine and the making of it. She'd be much more useful than I am in that regard, I'm certain she'd love what we have here.

[...Anyway.]

I can imagine needing something to do here, however - it's terribly dull when you don't have a task to be set to.
