while wicked hits up the papers, futaba nyooms straight for the bookshelf. she's checking for the usual: is it fiction/non-fiction, any hidden notes slipped into things, taste in romance.... ]
on the low table, the papers are written in a readable language, yes! it's (mumbles in rp magic). they seem to just be day to day operations - notes on the new areas that have appeared so far, so on and so forth. the handwriting in them is incredibly neat, so much so that you'd think it was typewritten, save for the brushstrokes. there are also a few other things - an origami hummingbird, a picture of a tree with a smiley face drawn on it, and a recipe for pancakes among the papers. they are very neatly stacked beside the typewriter.
futaba! on the bookshelf, she will see... a lot of books! the first top half of the bookshelf has books on conquest. there's one on pickling recipes? there are some on accounting, on hotel operations, on swordsmanship. down one shelf, though, the books are all devoted to poetry. whoever this is seems to be a pretty avid reader, though there aren't any romance novels. i'm gomen.
as she shakes one book open, she'll find some flowers pressed into the pages. there's also a bracelet made of forget-me-not that has been carefully dried as well. ]
[ this is most muttered to herself in disgust but hm, somehow this would track. ]
Whoever it is, their taste in books is terrible. [ she's waving the pickling book in which i dub thee with goodies. there's a pause while she watches said dried flower(s) flop out onto the floor. hm ]
[ in the wardrobe, marie will find a variety of wuxia-style clothing. it's mostly black, with accents of red, though there are the occasional mix ins of gray, and even purple. everything is made for a very tall person, compared to marie. on the floor, there are shoes, mostly boots. there's also... something faintly silver near the bottom of the wardrobe, though it's just a glint.
the smaller shelf is full of plants. there are tons of them! they appear to be very well taken care of. does futaba know anything about plants or want to examine them closer? ]
TEAR SOME OF THOSE CLOTHES OUT OF THE WARDROBE AND TOSS THEM OVER AT FUTABA. But also she does see that faintly silver glint and will try to get a better look at it? ]
[ she's just gonna drown in these robes now, goodbye. no but like a child playing dress up, she just fights her arms into the sleeves and goes right back to what she was doing.
meanwhile, futaba doesn't know a shitfuckdamn about plants. that's haru's niche not hers..!! she will however poke and shooch plants aside to see if there's anything hiding within them, on them, in them?? ]
[ wicked, when tearing the clothes out of the closet will find that the glint of silver belonged to... a shovel? it is REALLY big compared to her, and fairly heavy.
futaba is now wearing these robes, i guess. the fabric is incredibly luxurious. they are also huge on her. she is swimming in them. the plants, she can at least notice, are very well taken care of! they're all alive and blooming.
behind the plants, futaba finds.... a daruma doll! it's black and red, and it wobbles a bit. it is giving off a very, very bad aura. she will also find a couple of fine bottles of liquor - it appears to be baiju.]
Hoooooooooooly shit -- I could've used this when I was getting my shit rocked last week. [ Wicked is gonna try dragging it out of the wardrobe. Is there anything else of interest? Anything around the outside of the wardrobe that she should take note of? ]
[ meanwhile futaba looks at this daruma and quietly resolves not to put it on her head. the bad juju coming off that thing is enough to need a vat of holy water from the chapel....! instead ]
Oh, free alcohol!
[ this can be their hehe we did a thing peace offering ]
[ she may drag it! she'll hear the end of the shovel sort of scrape when she does? it looks like the crescent shape end of it is rather sharp. wicked will also see... a christmas sweater! it's folded up at the bottom of the wardrobe. it is red.
the daruma is also far too small for futaba to put on her head, as it is smaller than a basketball. alas. she can, i guess, try and take the baiju. is that what she's doing?
as the girls are doing this, they will suddenly start to feel a very deep, heavy sense of dread. it's a bad, bad feeling - like the room itself is oppressive, making them feel like they are almost powerless. it continues, pressing worse and worse down on them the longer they stand there. ]
[ she is in fact stealing the baiju. it's her prize for this place wanting to make her hurk twice now. ]
This room is just full of bad vibes. I don't think it's this guy's fault but maybe...?
[ she gestures where the daruma is and gently pokes it with a sleeve covered finger. here's hoping it curses her immediately (no). can she at least go flop on the bed until everything stops feeling gross? ]
[ the christmas sweater is huge! it is, appropriately, this one.
futaba can take the baiju, sure. the daruma wobbles when futaba pokes it, but it doesn't do anything.
the bad feeling does not fade - in fact, it gets worse. the longer they stand here, the worse that it gets. the longer they spend any time in here at all, the worse it gets, to the point that the bad vibe feeling becomes almost unbearable. futaba laying down does not make it any better.
But as the bad feeling intensifies, she’s going to walk over to Futaba who has flopped over the bed. She’ll look underneath to see if there’s anything there before reaching out to grab the young girl by the arm. ]
I think this place is hinting at us needing to leave.
you may keep your sweater and your alcohol, though wicked will see that her key dissolves into stardust the moment they step outside the door, and the door clicks shut and locks behind them. ]
