3.0 - week three

[afflictionmods]

WEEK THREE

Last night might have been exhausting for any number of reasons - maybe it was the emotional

toll of dealing with those ghosts, or maybe you stayed up too late after watching Jim Shrok. Who knows, but Saturday is over, even if some of you haven’t quite left it behind and half spirits that are still hanging on, tethered to you and weighing you down…

But that’s not going to stop a new week from starting. There’s no breaks in an eight week course.

There’s very little fanfare to the start of your third week of the course, though it does seem like the fog has lifted even more. It’s a bit more of a trek down the abandoned streets of Estelline, but surely a mile is walkable? Or you could grab a bike or try to hotwire one of those cars in the mall parking lot… Whatever you plan to do this week is up to you. All you know is you've got some new locations to explore.

As always, Florence and Lorelei are available.

SUNDAY MONDAY TUESDAY WEDNESDAY THURSDAY FRIDAY

TASK LIST


( OOC Note: Luci, Mutsu, and Mae will each receive a small roomba! Congrats on the successful egg drop. It's a tiny little friend that cleans extra well, though this also means its trash compartment is a little smaller so it'll need to be cleaned more often. )

3rd floor

[goodfaiths]

Aaaaaah?!

[ What is it with you people suddenly screaming – not that Riku's much better, but Grimnir sure gave him a spook! He looks over at the guy running past him, and Riku starts running to try and catch up to him. ]

Grimnir-san, wait! What happened?!

[vedr]

[ O-oh, this is.... embarrassing. But it's hard to stop as he wants to get to the 2nd floor and off of the 3rd to assuage his nerves. He can slow to a jog of sorts though, to keep up some conversation with Riku. ]

The Tyrannosaurus Rex... With nothing left but skeletal remains and a huge maw of teeth, its fearsome aura was too much!

[ A dino being underwhelming? Nah that thing was a raid boss, and one Grimnir is ill-equipped to even look at apparently (wrong element). ]

[goodfaiths]

Oh, the giant fossil?

[ This is completely normal. It is a little scary since it's huge, but it doesn't scare Riku like it scares Grimnir... ]

You're scared of those things? Well, it won't hurt you, I promise!

[vedr]

You're right. It is only a display, after all. Not something that can come back to life through sorcery and bite us with those large jaws...

[ By this point its just them briskly walking. Why one would recreate the t-rex into its former self minus the fleshy bits eludes him.... but the museum is meant to be educational! ]

Oh, I was distracted. Did you find anything that piqued your interest?

[goodfaiths]

Yeah, exactly. So you'll be okay, Grimnir-san.

[ Briskly walking, briskly walking...he's fine with this. ]

A lot of things. This world is pretty interesting in a lot of ways; it's just too bad that we were brought here the way we were. I'd be a lot more interested in learning more if things weren't so strange - what about you?

[vedr]

Such a broad yet magnanimous answer...! I was referring to museum exhibits but you have a good point. Wait uh, now for my answer...

[ He clears his throat. ]

Human culture is always fascinating to me, since I'm not one and until recently, I don't get too involved in their affairs. Something like this [ outstretches his arms ] is much better than reading literature! But I guess I wasnt paying attention to see the little differences between this and my world, beyond no powers thinking a giant fossil is unsettling.

[goodfaiths]

[ He tilts his head a little when Grimnir goes quieter, but his excitement is nice to see. ]

Ah, I get it! You're experiencing a lot of new things, aren't you? I'm glad you're enjoying it. As much as I love reading, it's really different when you get to see things for yourself...so congratulations on your first museum visit!

[ Claps!! ]

[vedr]

[ Is that something to be celebrated? He isn't used to that, it's got him a little red! ]

Thank you...? I guess it is kind of special for a god to visit human destinations and learn! Humbling too, which is good.

[ This leads to seasonal events. Auguste Island remembers... ]

These are visited with friends and family, correct? Pamphlets often show what looks like people visiting in groups.

[goodfaiths]

Yeah, or with school groups. You'll usually see younger people when that happens, but otherwise, friends and family.

[ He's happy to educate Grimnir on this. He seems so fascinated...it's really nice! ]

So, if you ever want to come here again, just ask one of us! It's a lot more fun when you experience it with a friend or two!

[vedr]

It's not weird to ask others to come with for those rips, right? This may be interesting to me, but I'd hate to see people bored or uninterested.

[ The chuuni in him is showing... ]
