Night 23

[whiteofcrime]

So apparently just over a year has passed here while it was just a 'day' to us. A bunch of people from town are gone. They were forced to fight and kill each other because of Lardface's sick idea of a 'present' for his new son.

Apparently the kid laughed when he saw it happen...

We have to do something. We can't let this sick, twisted guy raise an even more sadistic kid. We can't.

[ A few minutes later, the final line disappears under a massive line of inkblots, obscuring whatever the message once was. Then: ]

We need to meet up and talk about what's happened since we were gone.

Why would you write something like that where anyone could read it?

So he's officially recognised the kid as his heir?

[whiteofcrime]

How else am I supposed to tell people? Yell it from the rooftops? Start an underground rebellion? Yes, he recognised that woman's kid as his heir. He has green eyes, his hair, and dark skin apparently. Always accompanied by four of the black guys.

[fifthreplacement]

Maybe simply say that you have something rather important to tell people and that we need to meet up? It would be far, far safer than writing it where anyone could pass it on.

[whiteofcrime]

People could eavesdrop and pass it on anyway. But fine, it's hidden now, okay?

We do need to meet up and find out all of what happened while we were gone.

[fifthreplacement]

Evesdropping is easier to avoid with the amount of people who can sense others nearby that we have here.

I'll be at Rose House for awhile. Assuming everyone will eventually drop by here, given the people staying here at the moment.

[whiteofcrime]

What? I must've missed you. I was there not long ago. I'll see you there then.

[shuttersense]

Little more then a year, actually.

But I also have to say, stating something like that is clearly a foolish idea.

[whiteofcrime]

Fine, fine, I get it! I can scribble it out if it'll make you and Gale happy.

[shuttersense]

Thank you, because we really don't like the idea of you getting killed deader then dead.

[whiteofcrime]

Yeah yeah

[ Grumble, grumble. Stop mothering him, Rei. Gosh. ]

[shuttersense]

[But Kaito it's good practice for her]

Also sorry for bolting earlier. I'll explain when we see each other later.

[whiteofcrime]

Oh, no problem. I didn't even really notice actually. Had to go take a quick shower myself.

[ After that awkward dream... ]

[shuttersense]

[....oh dear.]

I guess I did leave pretty quickly. I'd love a shower myself but-priorities.

[whiteofcrime]

Your kids?

[shuttersense]

Yes. They're good. They were worth sprinting for.

[whiteofcrime]

That's good to know. I'll go check on the one Gale brought back in a sec.

[shuttersense]

No rush. If you don't see or hear me, I'll either be at the cottage or the cheese house.

It's warm and I think we may need to restock on food supplies.

[leaderoftheresistance]

I'll keep a watch out for the kid in case he tries to attack.

I'm under anon for now, keep safe.

[whiteofcrime]

You realise you're only as anonymous as your handwriting, right? This isn't a digital forum or something.

[ Kaito isn't a handwriting expert of course but it seems silly for this guy to say 'under anon' considering the medium. ]
