Week 6
Good morning, New Rapture. A new day is dawning.
Another week at the bottom of the sea. You may start to mark the passage of time by the increasing number of people you seem to be bleeding each week - look how few of you there are now. Nearly half your number gone, and for what? The shadowy machinations of some madman? You've met some others, but they seem unable or unwilling to solve this problem for you. Time marches onwards.
In the abyss, New Rapture starts to wake. It's small things, for now - the lights of a building here and there, the flicker of a neon sign for some small business. The restoration of this city continues.
Speaking of this city, there's a new branch of your little slice of it to explore. It's certainly the most picturesque of the branches you've seen.
There's more to see and do, citizens of New Rapture. And hey, there's coins to get, too.

SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY
[ ooc: Welcome to the sixth week of Unknown Seas Round 3! Please make sure to mark any investigation toplevels accordingly, post your ac, and you can reach either Mayor Fontaine or Eleanor for conversations! ]

May I?

If Fontaine gets upset I will vouch for you.
no subject
[And then she just takes the book and
moves to yeet that thing at the window without another word]
no subject
The first thing to rush out is the noise from the record player - Vivaldi, Mafuyu, since you know your music (and who doesn't know the Four Seasons?) - and the second is the heavily and thick scent of cigar smoke.
The chair in the other room, for the record, doesn't move. Hasn't noticed, maybe. ]

[ mafuyu so cool....... ]
no subject
It doesn't look like he's in there right now. I could give one of you a boost up, and you could unlock the door for the rest of us?
[He means the girls, sorry Jonathan but they are much lighter!]

[ She sighs, as if a bit resigned. ]
So long as you're careful in being proper about it, I don't mind volunteering.
no subject
[Mielle he's like twice your age and gay. Though he still seems sort of worried, now that we're actually getting to it.]
Be careful up there. If anything seems wrong, come back to the window. We'll catch you if we have to. [That said, he bends down.] Here, get up on my shoulders.
no subject
[ But fine. She gives Mafuyu's hand one last squeeze (because of course they were holding hands) and starts clambering up on Brett's back to reach the window. ]
no subject
Careful.
no subject
[He'll wait for the affirmative before he lifts her up, hands careful around her ankles to keep her steady. Brett's not the strongest guy here by any means, but Mielle's tiny and he's already sort of feeling the adrenaline, so up we go!]

It's perhaps understandable that she looks VERY stressed when she appears at the door to let the others in but is otherwise unharmed. ]
Hurry!

[ She's speaking low enough that her voice hopefully won't carry to the other room. ]

... The space is small enough, just as long as we keep in eyesight of each other.
[He's gonna make a beeline for the bookshelf.]
