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!

I love that Phantom gets this one of all things goodbye his dignity (if he ever had any)
[Hey, so did you want to deal with a third Tamamori, this one able to perceive you?? It's easier to tell which is which, because this one is wearing somewhat more modern loungewear than the shirt-and-kimono combo the other two are sporting, and he's not wearing glasses much like the counterpart that just came in.
Things to note: only one of the Tamamoris has blue eyes, and it's the one with glasses that's plastered to the floor.
Tamamori #3(?????) is leaning against one of the bookshelves with his arms crossed, though he's just out of sight of his doppelgangers, like he still doesn't want them to see him even if it's probably not a thing. He's watching Phantom with obvious displeasure. There's a tiny Frog Man on his shoulder, much like the one on the shoulder of the Haruhiko-san that just followed Tamamori #2 in; the amphibian with #3 has his Florence hat on, and he waves timidly under the glare of his master.]
But I shouldn't have expected anything from somebody who'd just waltz into other people's memories. Out! Out with you!
[Can they even get out of here. There's no exit.......]
I COULDN'T RESIST EVEN THOUGH HE NEVER HAD ANY
[No, Phantom absolutely came in here entirely of his own volition. But it's not like Tamamori can prove anything. He scowls a little at Tamamori, but... the strangely polite hatted amphibian gets a much less severe look. And a little nod.]
And you can hardly blame me for doubting. Even you don't believe you.
[Phantom jerks his head towards the clown show playing out just in front of them, with the skeptic blue-eyed Tamamori. Which... is quite strange, actually. Phantom's world might not broadly mess with time travel shenanigans, but he wouldn't think a trip of three days would do something like that. Unless this is the biproduct of some kind of paradox, or... augh. Somehow it's not surprising that even Tamamori's memories are a headache.]
Besides, past selves are hardly the same thing as a doppelganger.
