Trustfell 4: Trust Fall or Die Hard ([personal profile] trustwellness) wrote in [community profile] trusthell2017-02-05 11:51 am

WEEK 3.

WEEK 3

As the second week draws to a close, two more have joined the deceased. Christo and Alani are dead, leaving twenty-six of you remaining.

It may not seem like very many have died, but their absence will certainly be felt.

Saturday is given to regrouping and rest; on Sunday morning the clock chimes as it always has, but at least there are no bodies to find today. It seems you're safe for now. The night before wasn't necessarily a peaceful one, however; you'll probably feel a bit groggy when you wake up, and it seems you've regained something that you didn't realize you'd lost...

Just like last week, a door in the stairwell has opened, leading you down further into the building; there are more rooms open to you down there - possibly even one that you'll find personally interesting.

Go ahead and explore all you like; after all, you did well at completing your lessons this past week.

APPRENTICES REMAINING: 26

APPRENTICES REMAINING: 25


SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY

[OOC: Welcome to week three of Trustfell! Feel free to make as many top levels as you'd like and tag out to other characters! This post is for all of your interactions this week... at least until the weekend. Don't forget to save those threads for coins and the activity check!

If you'd like to get in contact with the Wordsmith, you can do so through letters or the switchboard!]

[There are a lot of things Gangrel wasn't expecting this week, but this is probably the most bizarre one. He stares at the note for a long moment before finally reaching out to push the door open and poke his head inside.]

Are you serious about this?

[The amount of ?????? is kind of impressive here.]
feistytrader: (chillin like a. protag.)

[personal profile] feistytrader 2017-02-09 04:00 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I am.

[He's looking calm and comfortable from his bed; there's plenty of empty space or the chair, if Gangrel would prefer that.]

Are you interested?
plegia: (HMM ♛)

[personal profile] plegia 2017-02-09 04:02 am (UTC)(link)
[He looks to the chair, then back to Silver, like he has no idea what to make of this.]

...Have other people taken you up on this?

[But with that said, he's actually entering the room and closing the door behind him.]
feistytrader: (gold's hat is huge too)

[personal profile] feistytrader 2017-02-09 04:08 am (UTC)(link)
Quite a few people, actually.

[...]

I feel better now that I've gotten it out, too. I thought things would go a lot worse.
plegia: (THINKING ♛)

[personal profile] plegia 2017-02-09 04:11 am (UTC)(link)
[He'll flounce over and sit on the chair, then. It doesn't look like he's relaxed even the tiniest bit, given how he's drumming his fingers on his knees and just how stiff his posture is.]

...Everyone has secrets, so I'm not surprised this is hitting some people hard. Have you heard anything particularly damning?

[He's not expecting specifics, of course.]
feistytrader: (listening in)

[personal profile] feistytrader 2017-02-09 04:17 am (UTC)(link)
I'm not talking about any of the contents of any secrets I've heard about today.

[He says it calmly; there's nothing about his posture or body language that really says that Gangrel's right or wrong.]

But I will say that I seriously doubt that any of the people that talked to me are gonna act on theirs.

Good enough.

[...]

I was originally a Dark Mage, one of the Grimleal. I changed classes and chose to distance myself from them, but I still act as though I'm loyal to retain my position as king.

[It isn't really that bad of a secret, but it's only because he doesn't have anything else he's actively trying to keep secret.]

If they found out, I have no doubt they'd remove me from power. Most likely by removing my head.

[...................]

Well, that wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it would be.

[u did it gangrel]
feistytrader: (okay then)

[personal profile] feistytrader 2017-02-09 04:57 am (UTC)(link)
[...That sounds like a pretty rough position to be in.]

Can I ask you something?

[Hopefully the answer's yes, because he's gonna do it anyway.]

Why did you become king? Gold said you weren't always royalty.
plegia: (RESIGNED ♛)

[personal profile] plegia 2017-02-09 05:02 am (UTC)(link)
I wasn't. I was as low-born as you can get, actually. Stole to survive, learned to fight to make money as I got older, that sort of thing.

[Vague handwave; it clearly doesn't bother him any.]

Royalty in Plegia isn't like royalty in most other countries. When there's an open seat, anyone can take over as long as they've got the power to back it up. I did. I claimed the position because I could and because Plegians needed someone to guide them after suffering at the hands of the Ylisseans.

[...revenge, basically. He's got some other reasons too, but they're not as important anymore.]

[personal profile] feistytrader 2017-02-09 05:06 am (UTC)(link)
...It's like becoming the Champion, then.

[For the first time, Silver... Actually kind of feels like he understands Gangrel. Maybe not entirely, but it softens him up a little.]

Did you steal and run, or did you con people out of their cash?

[He has to know.]
plegia: (INTRODUCE ♛ i'm gangrel this is jackass)

[personal profile] plegia 2017-02-09 05:09 am (UTC)(link)
Bit of both. As I grew up it got easier to pick locks and run. I was a much better Thief, after all!

[he's got a decent magic stat though so it's not like he was the worst dark mage!!!]
feistytrader: (listening in)

[personal profile] feistytrader 2017-02-09 05:21 am (UTC)(link)
Me and Weavile make a good team. We take turns distracting and stealing.

[#thieflife]

Anyway, here.

[Man, Gangrel's not gonna give a shit. He pulls out his envelope and hands it over to Gangrel.

"Silver is the heir to Team Rocket, an organization so bent on power and world domination that it regularly endangers the world."]
plegia: (SPEAK ♛)

[personal profile] plegia 2017-02-09 05:24 am (UTC)(link)
I have no doubts that you two are unstoppable.

[AND IF YOU GET CAUGHT WEAVILE CAN JUST STAB SOMEONE WITH THOSE CLAWS—

Anyway, he accepts the envelope and studies the secret for a moment before handing it back.]


Well, that's a bit of an ugly secret too. Is this an organization you hope to lead in the future?

[at least it's not an evil dragon cult...???]
feistytrader: (6)

[personal profile] feistytrader 2017-02-09 05:28 am (UTC)(link)
No. I completely oppose them, and I've been fighting to stop them.

[If he's going to be perfectly honest on the matter.]

But if that gets out to my world, I'm pretty screwed. I don't think I'd want to admit to it if Gold didn't have my back.
plegia: (NEUTRAL ♛)

[personal profile] plegia 2017-02-09 05:30 am (UTC)(link)
Hmm. Even if you try to explain yourself, the damage will have already been done. I understand.

[He leans back a bit, still drumming his fingers on his knees.]

...I take it you won't act on it, though. You wouldn't be offering any of this [handwave to indicate the room and presumably the conversation] if you were considering killing someone.
feistytrader: (gold's hat is huge too)

[personal profile] feistytrader 2017-02-09 05:54 am (UTC)(link)
No, I'm not. It's nothing I'd get Gold killed for.

[And besides-]

If it helps put anyone's mind at ease to share their secret, I don't mind something like this. It's helped me out, too.

[It hasn't completely taken off the edge, but he's a little more relaxed than yesterday.]
plegia: (SMUG ♛)

[personal profile] plegia 2017-02-10 03:56 am (UTC)(link)
I assumed it was a stupid idea, but maybe you really are onto something here.

[...]

And when someone ends up dead perhaps you can rule out a few people!

[like him ofc!!!]
feistytrader: (chillin like a. protag.)

[personal profile] feistytrader 2017-02-10 06:15 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe. I'm a pretty paranoid person, though, so don't get any ideas, alright?

[...It's intended as a joke, at least.]
plegia: (SMIRK ♛ men are beasts)

[personal profile] plegia 2017-02-12 04:43 am (UTC)(link)
You don't need to worry about me. I wouldn't have told you if I was seriously considering it!

[Good man, Silver. It's worth clarifying though, just in case.]
