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!

[ This is wild??? Hello??? What is going on???

Riku fortunately ends up near Affliction!Madara, but he's unaware of the other man's presence. So instead, he's kind of standing by the trees, debating on whether or not he should try to step in.

H-hey, don't do that!

[The pink-haired attacker closes in on the older man, but memory-Madara steps between them--even as the older man pulls a gun. For now, they don't see Riku.]

On that note, I'd better apologize to you, Kohaku. Truth is, the Gatekeeper's gonna help me make my dream come true, so I decided to join forces with him. If you wanna hurt him, you're gonna have to get through me first...

[The man with the gun seems to be this "Gatekeeper"...

It's about this time that the real Madara sees Riku, and he reaches over to pull him back, preventing him from getting into the mess. He speaks in a stage whisper.]


Can't let you get in there with those guys! Just watch.

Madara-san!

[ He's startled, but he's glad to see a more familiar face. Why is there a gun. Isn't Madara supposed to be an idol... ]

Is everyone going to be okay?!

[Madara is still trying so hard not to laugh. Despite the gun. And the argument happening. The guy with the gun leaves before a few more threats are exchanged and Madara sounds like a real double-crosser.

But after a few minutes the pink-haired one and memory-Madara stare each other down... and start laughing, too.]


See? It's juuuust fine, Riku. That's my partner.
