Week 5

[grimgrinningghosts]

[...So that was a mess. All of it was a mess, and things don't look to be improving any time soon. With tensions at an all-time high and conditions worsened, it seems pretty safe to say that this whole week promises a great deal of foreboding atmosphere.

But, hey, things aren't entirely bad. Just as Randall promised, you're now able to leave the Manor! 

Just don't stay out there for too long. There's still a lot of you, and you just can't afford to lose numbers.

24 guests remain]

[SUNDAY MONDAY TUESDAY WEDNESDAY THURSDAY]

Kitchen

[bestchefinparis]

[To nobody's surprise, Rémy keeps spending most of his day in the kitchen, just...lounging around -- this time with the excuse of trying to stay unnoticed by the elephants. It's not a fun time.

Still, he can't just stand aside while someone's food is burning. Better take it off the stove]

You look like someone used you to practice boxing.

[Seriously, look at all those bandages]

[angelgoatdemon]

[That gets a reaction from him, pulling the goat out of his thoughts. At the mention if boxing, he laughs weakly.]

It wouldn't be the first time. Although I'm surprised this week is what finally kicked me to the curb.

[The motive, he means- finally, he notices his work burning away. Whoops!]

That...usually never happens. My bad.

[bestchefinparis]

[Take your burned food, Lekmet. Theeere you go]

I thought after the last motive this one wouldn't be so bad, but it's like he felt the need to dial up how screwed up all this is.

[He has seen well enough how people are affected by it. His own hallucination wasn't so bad in terms of trauma, but it clearly was aiming towards getting him to kill]

[angelgoatdemon]

A great chunk of us are gone...It's honestly a miracle we're barely getting by and surviving.

[He's going to start a recipe from scratch, discarding the coconut and burnt food. Perhaps some sushi?]

I can't tell whether the elephants or the outside is worse. Haven't gotten much sleep since then.

[bestchefinparis]

[Rémy goes to a side to watch. Even if he's not making food, he has always liked watching others do that]

...it's all going to be better someday. I know saying that sounds empty, but it has to get better.

[Maybe it sounds empty because Rémy doesn't believe that, although he does hope those who are trying to rescue them will succeed]

Will you be okay?

[angelgoatdemon]

[Strangely enough he's memorized a recipe or few in a cookbook he found in the library. A goat's gotta have some hobbies in this murderhouse.

Anyway, he works swiftly with the raw fish, otherwise he takes his time on the rolls.]

Y-Yeah. Cooking helps!! It always helps. We need to thrive despite it all, y'know?

[This week had his worst breaking point yet, physically and all.]

[bestchefinparis]

[Damn right cooking helps]

Still, there has to be a way to solve the problem we have right now. I have seen way too many people freaking out about the elephants' effects, there has to be a way to snap someone out of the hallucinations...

[Kim's reactions to the hallucinations left a very strong impression on Rémy]

[angelgoatdemon]

[Hmm. He thinks on that for a moment, then gets an idea on how to.]

Oh!! I got it- perhaps splashing some water on their faces?

[Aaand he does a demonstration, pretty used to miming his words out to those who can't translate goat. He fetches a glass of water and splashes it on his own face. Lekmet's made a Mistake]
