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.


SETTING TRACKER

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!

[Boy, he does not know how to answer that question. Maybe he ought to just get out of here. But he wants to know more about Hien, too. It's a dead-end if he answers this wrong, he's pretty sure. So he hesitates for a moment, then chooses honesty.]

No, just a friend. Well, he definitely wouldn't say we're friends, but I'm generous.

... I see.

[ After studying Madara's expression with his own thoughts, he speaks up. ]

You can come inside, if you wanna warm up.

[ That is all he'll say before he walks back into the tent. ]

[He puts his hands down and walks over to the tent, then ducks inside with a quick "sorry for the intrusion" and a faint smile.]

Thanks...

[ There's a rather small boy (shorter than Tamamori) who suddenly retreats into the blanket with his golden retriever. The dog seems very... not energetic compared to the others of the same breed. It's not sick though.

"Who..."
]

It's cold outside, so I'm letting him warm up.

[ Hien gestures over to the boy. ]

This is Ren. Please be nice to him.

[ Ren looks nervous with his right red eye and blue left eye looking down at the blanket. The blanket has enough space for Madara to come inside too. ]
festiverogue: (full concentration)

Madara.

[He bows politely, then takes a seat at the edge of the blanket.]

Nice to meet you both. I'm not gonna lean on your kindness too long, but thanks for letting me stop for a second.

It's fine.

[ Hien doesn't seem to be in a rush to kick Madara out, which genuinely surprises Ren.

"Wow...! I can't believe he let you into the tent."

He seems interested though, so he works up the courage to ask him a question.

"Are you a traveler?"
