3.0 - week three

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. )

I have no intention of being here at night to find out. [Wait, horrible thought.] ...That had better not be our next lesson.

[personal profile] partymagician 2022-06-10 06:22 pm (UTC)(link)
...I hope not. I'd like to avoid coming back here for another lesson.

[ He didn't get possessed, but it sure sucked anyway!!! ]

I'll admit, though, that I'm worried about the future after that last lesson.

[It sucked!! A lot!!]

As am I. I doubt they intend to make them less dangerous from here.

[Although that's... also reminding him.]

I likely owe you an apology for what Marcus did. Is Hien healed yet?
partymagician: (57)

[personal profile] partymagician 2022-06-10 07:54 pm (UTC)(link)
No, but he's wearing that sweater that helps with pain right now.

[ Fai lets out a small sigh. ]

I'll try to reel him in from now on so he doesn't get in so many fights.

I suppose he's taking care in his own way.

[Phantom has his own sweater on, and is... just now starting to wonder if he should be more concerned at how low a price their instructor set them at. How many did she expect them to need?]

It would be optimistic to hope the situation doesn't arise again. Unfortunately, I can't make any promises where Marcus is concerned. I'll do what I can.

[personal profile] partymagician 2022-06-10 08:46 pm (UTC)(link)
That's all you can do. I can't even guarantee that Hien will calm down on his own either, even if I scold him.

[ He might have to do it a few more times before it finally sticks for Hien... ]

Whatever happens, I won't fault you for it.

[personal profile] exofractured 2022-06-11 12:54 am (UTC)(link)
And we can guarantee even less, at the whims of whatever exercise they put us to next.

[For once he wasn't trying to drag Marcus completely? Maybe. It is a mystery.]

You can reserve judgment for then. Blame me if it's appropriate.
partymagician: (48)

[personal profile] partymagician 2022-06-11 01:52 am (UTC)(link)
Alright, I will. I'll blame you so hard you won't know what's coming!

[ He laughs. ]

Come find Hien or I if you need help during the next lesson. We truly won't know what's in store until it happens.

[MENACING...]

...I'll keep that in mind. Without magic I don't have much to offer in return. But if I can be of use, the same goes for the two of you.
partymagician: (56)

[personal profile] partymagician 2022-06-11 02:51 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, I'm sure you have plenty to offer! Can you carry heavy things?

[ But Fai will take him up on that offer... maybe. He doesn't like getting people involved in dangerous things, even if he volunteers himself to do the same. ]

[personal profile] exofractured 2022-06-11 02:56 am (UTC)(link)
[Fai......... pls. Look at these noodle arms, entirely concealed by sweater. Phantom's voice can't possibly get any more dry than this.]

About as heavy as a large textbook.

If we ever uncover a gym, we should go train!

[Through timespace RP magic, Fai becomes responsible for Phantom's tragic Tuesday-]

We have one. I imagine it's constantly full of musclebound idiots.

[Case in point: Marcus likes it.]
partymagician: (44)

[personal profile] partymagician 2022-06-11 06:31 am (UTC)(link)
[ i love that tbh ]

Goes to show that I haven't even looked in there myself!

[ He laughs. Honestly, Fai had seen it, but he immediately ran away and erased it from his memory... ]
exofractured: (10)

[personal profile] exofractured 2022-06-12 04:37 pm (UTC)(link)
I may have to consider it, after Saturday. I'll let you know how dire the situation is.

[The depths of his betrayal when he finds out Fai was an athletic mage all along will be immeasurable.]
partymagician: (63)

[personal profile] partymagician 2022-06-12 04:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Please report back! I'll be on the lookout for you on Sunday.

[ Or Monday, if things happen to go into the wee hours of Sunday morning again. ]
