( WEEK 2 - PROPHETS )

[abhoth]

On Sunday night, as soon as the grandfather clocks mark 6:00, a voice will speak to you. The tone may vary from person to person, the voice's pitch shifting and changing to suit her facilitators's needs — but the words will remain the same. Similarly for all those who can hear it, they'll suddenly find themselves captivated by it. "Come now, little ones. It's time to partake." And just like that, you find yourself drawn towards the nearest mirrored surface on the wall, somehow managing to avoid calling the attention of anyone who might be in the room with you. Though this is your first time participating in the ritual, knowledge still floods your mind. A light press of your hand against the mirror, and you will find yourself capable of stepping through the previously solid surface and into the shrine room. Here, you find yourself accompanied by two (2) other individuals. And though your handler can't be physically among you, you still feel her presence enveloping you and saturating the air in this room. Glance up, and through the glass ceiling you'll be able to see her in all her glory. It seems it's time for this week's sacrifice to be chosen.

[abhoth]

One of the many rewards you have reaped. Consider it done.

[ Just for reference, the next morning Mira will have a 20-count nail polish collection. While the bottles look out dated, they're still the high quality polishes that Mira knows and loves. ]

[perceptions]

[thanks momster :')]

Cool.

Also I have a quick question about the Convict role. We know it has a Skeleton Key. Does that key unlock even the rooms that are blocked off to everyone else?

[abhoth]

Anything with a keyhole may be accessed by the Convict. You're safe.

[perceptions]

So, my little pet project in the disposal room won't be discovered prematurely? That's all I need to know.

[abhoth]

Your hobby comes with risk, like all good things in your mortal life. Continue on and if you must get creative, do so. Within this shrine, my prophets are safe.

[perceptions]

Hm. Guess I'll just keep my journal hidden somewhere it can't be found. Maybe tell Saya where it is if I ever get caught.

[abhoth]

Use whatever means necessary. I would hate to see you and the others fall so soon from negligence.

[ FIRMLY, but reassuringly like a proud mom? Mira you're the fav, at the moment. ]

[perceptions]

I made a deal with you guys, and I intend to collect. That's all this is for me.

[disinterested]

[...]

I don't really care about what hobbies you keep besides this question: is it going to affect me or Tsurugi?

[perceptions]

Not unless one of you dies.

[n_n]

[disinterested]

[MIRA...]

Playing arts and crafts with your victims' corpses?

[perceptions]

Not just my victims. I sold my so-called soul to these creatures, and I'm getting my return back.

[disinterested]

... You're quite possibly the most questionable person I've personally met.

[It's not an insult?? It's probably not a compliment either, though Mira is free to take it howevet—]

[perceptions]

Aw, thanks. I like you too Girge. [She clasps her hands.] For the record? You're getting a 7 on my Hot or Not chart.

[disinterested]

... Dare I ask who the first 6 are?

[and do you seriously have a chart mira]

[perceptions]

No, no, it's a rating system! You're getting a 7 out of 10! Not bad, honestly. I'd rank you up a bit higher if you cut your hair.

[no chart yet but she is absolutely making one.]

[disinterested]

Ah. Well, I'll agree that a 7 isn't bad. [shrugs] My hair grew out while I was in prison.
