04 - week four
WEEK FOUR
Saturday comes to a close, and it’s time for some rest and recovery. Perhaps the TLC you deserve will come this week, or perhaps the nightmare will continue. It’s hard to say with things being so strange around you, from Wei Wuxian’s disappearance to the sudden addition of objects and places and creatures from your homes. Who knows what this week will bring? Nothing ordinary, that’s for sure.
You wake up on Sunday to an increase in those little glimpses you saw yesterday. What were snippets of songs, locations that might’ve seemed familiar, and creatures that were dormant, are now all alive and whole. When you go to the karaoke bar, the songs you once knew are there. Monsters and animals are alive and sentient. New business are abound. Vehicles are operable, and perhaps some of your old belongings are back, too.
However, some of these things aren’t even things that should exist outside of your dreams. They may be far too strange and unusual to be real, or just things you don't remember ever seeing. The only thing you remember about these things in particular is that they were, quite literally, in your dreams this week.
That being said, every few hours, all of these things from your homes and dreams fade out and get replaced by new sounds, places, beasts….only to maybe come back again at another time.
Well. At least there's one constant here: You’ve got a handful of new locations to look at, with the fog having spread once more, and they aren't going anywhere. There aren’t as many new places that are native to Estelline this time around, but that may be for the best, considering everything going on.

OOC NOTE
OOC: Details on this week can be found here!
Also, we have a lot of participants for the news activity from last week. Neat! Everyone who participated in some capacity will have a small polaroid camera delivered to their doorstep. There's limited film, though - 10 photos per camera. It doesn't seem like there's any extra film at this time, either.
Finally, there will not be any weekly tasks this week. You guys are going to be busy with memshare and dreamscape stuff; instead, enjoy the Estelline University Newspaper!

[He runs a finger across his chin thoughtfully, because there's just a lot of little things he needs to wrap his brain around before the big picture will be remotely clear.]
Either way, I'm not really fond of Lorelei. Florence said something, too. That Lorelei wouldn't like them telling us why they were doing the work with us instead of her.

[ you know, accomplices and all of that. both are no good and they've been brought in to clean up the mess? or they're both good and still are brought in to help. that sort of thing, but regardless sabo shrugs. there are so many angles here. ]
Hien said that Florence isn't even human, right? I bet they're exempt from any influences that may be happening around here or whatever else could be happening. I wouldn't be surprised that given everything we've learned so far, that people would be interested in finding ways to function without fear of their emotions "getting in the way" of things.
[ air quotes included. ]

[There's a lot to consider. And Madara is just beginning to get a grasp on some of it.]
Why bring us in, then? If they can build something--someone like Florence, what's the point? Except that it keeps feeling like they want us to reverse the damage, or something like that.
