W1, TUESDAY

[cluedin]

[Meltryllis rings the bell in the wine cellar and there's a clattering heard from above her. Shortly after, there's a light jingle as Peach bounds down the stairs from the kitchen directly into the cellar, eyes roaming the room before she spots Meltryllis and she grins.]

Good afternoon, Miss Meltryllis! How can I help you?

[sadiskick]

[ Meltryllis turns to face Peach. She doesn't care to beat around the bush, so! ]

Is there any way I can see the contents of the invitation we all received or the RSVP I supposedly sent?

[cluedin]

Yes ma'am, of course. One moment please. [She scurries off to go somewhere before coming back with a box of papers. Give her a moment to sort through them before coming up with an RSVP with Meltryllis's name and signature on it, dated February 7th.]

Will this suffice?

[sadiskick]

[ She frowns, thinking. ]

I was hoping for something more, but if that's all I can see, it's not as if I can follow you wherever you went off to, can I.

[cluedin]

I'm afraid not. Staff quarters are off-limits to guests...may I ask what you were specifically hoping for? Perhaps I can provide something like it.

week 1; tuesday

[cluedin]

[ The bell rings... I would say Plum comes out of nowhere, but she is quite obviously walking out of the laundry room to meet Meltryllis at the lake. hopefully she is in front of it and not. deep on a row boat in it because plum is not meeting her mid-lake ]

Hello, Miss. Was there something you needed?

[sadiskick]

[ Wow, Plum. Shouldn't you go above and beyond for Master Blue's guests?

Fortunately for the both of them, she's only standing at the lake edge, looking pensively at the surface before she turns to face Plum. ]

Where do you take the dead?

[cluedin]

[ in blue's dreams tbh

plum hums a little ]

We cremated the bodies to insure proper disposal and no further contamination. The ashes were then laid to rest in the graveyard. [ she stares at the lake for a second ... or maybe at what lays on the other shore ] Were you concerned about the crypt, miss?

[sadiskick]

No.

[ It's not a worry, more of a curiosity. If they were taken to places yet unknown to the guests. ]

Wait. Contamination?

( week 1 ) tuesday

[cluedin]

[ when melt rings the bell to summon pumpkin to the duck pond... well! conveniently! pumpkin is already there! she's crouched at the edge of the water with a plastic bag full of pieces of bread, holding out bite-sized pieces in the palm of her gloved hand. ]

C'meeere, Waddles... Fluffybutt, no, you already got your lunch! You greedy little chunkster...

[ hm ]

[sadiskick]

[ ...

In lieu of her actual questions: ]

Are those their actual names?

[ Did Pumpkin name them that? ]

[cluedin]

Yeah! Waddles has a weird kinda waddle when he walks around, and Fluffybutt... well... she has a real fluffy butt!

[ DON'T JUDGE HER ]

[sadiskick]

[ She's judging her. ]

Whatever. [ That's not why she's here. ] Why aren't we allowed to go past all—

[ Well, what they can see right here. ]

W1, SUNDAY

[cluedin]

[Melt rings the bells and all three sisters appear not long after. Peach seems to be making sure Pumpkin appears on time, and Plum walks along with her. As they stop near the lake, Peach offers a small bow.]

You rang, Miss Meltryllis?

[sadiskick]

Am I still that thing?

[ A monster that she had no control over.

She assumes they know. ]

[cluedin]

[ ah. plum looks towards her sisters, but her face gives nothing away when she turns back to speak: ]

I am afraid so.

[sadiskick]

Will I be that thing until someone kills me? Like Nikki and that rotten tomato?

[ Is that the only way? ]

w2; thursday

[cluedin]

[ despite everything, when Plum shows up to the chapel after being called, she still curtsies in front of melt. ]

Hello, miss. Was there something I could do for you?

[


besides a cure ]

[sadiskick]

[ give her a cure, plum >/ ]

I doubt I'll be left alone tonight. If I'm made to exit the stage, will you deliver some items for me?

[ She doesn't want to die. She doesn't plan to die, but. Well. ]

[cluedin]

[ ah. she nods, softly ]

Of course. What are they?

[sadiskick]

[ She hands over two boxes. ]

This is for Toi. [ The box holds the candle from the first week's event. The one that redirects shadows. With it comes a letter. ]

This is for Mammon. [ This box is the one from guessing the tutorial murder. It holds this chocolate. It comes with this letter. ]

( week 4 ) monday

[cluedin]

[ when pumpkin comes over to the duck pond, she has something in her arms—one of the ducks, shaking and quivering. ]

Hey... don't mind Fluffybutt, she's still kinda shaken from this weekend.

[sadiskick]

[ Meltryllis looks at Fluffybutt for a moment before she levels her gaze on Pumpkin. ]

Marksmanship usually isn't part of a duck's skill set. You'd want to keep it that way, wouldn't you?

[cluedin]

She didn't mean it! She doesn't even know what a gun is! ... I mean, I guess she kinda does now. But that's besides the point!

[sadiskick]

I know she didn't. I'd be blind to not see how traumatic it was for her.

[ She nods at the duck trembling. ]

Pumpkin, I know you have rules you have to follow, but what are you willing to do for your ducks?
