Week 7: Thursday

[disclosures]

[It's not that early in the day before she comes back to their room, a bottle of what looks like gold ink in one hand and a very needy figurine in the other.

She looks tired, but that's hardly new.]

There's... fifteen, right? Fifteen Narrators left?

If only the blotters are killing, and we only vote one person for execution, then that's thirteen people. If none of the villains die, then... that's no so bad. We just need to end with three in each category.

[discardia]

That's the problem... I know I said what I did on Sunday, but I'm worried that there are going to be more kills than just the Blotters.

[disclosures]

You think so? I hope you and the Viziers can even things out if it comes to that.

I wonder if anybody wants to see Tiger's ending.

[discardia]

...

[ A-about that. ]

I... my ability changed, Rebecca. I can't protect anyone anymore.

[disclosures]

... The threads snapped at the beginning of the week, right? So... I guess that's not binding anymore.

Can I ask? What is it now?

[discardia]

[ A nod. ]

I can turn people into mice. That happened around the same time as our partnerships ended.

[disclosures]

[ She giggles, she can't help herself. ]

A swan princess, puss in boots and mice. I didn't think we'd have this many animal shaped people in the castle.

[discardia]

I'd take it over some of the other abilities, as helpful as it... isn't.

[disclosures]

It might be useful...

[Because hey, people can't kill very well when they're mice, right?]

Anyway. [She picks up the bottle of gold ink.] The person who gave me this... asked not to give it to the Crafters. Maybe we can make our own black ink.
