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.]

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.

...

[ 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.

[ 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.
