welcome to mayfield: day 3

[mayfield_mods]

[Those who wake up in the town on the third day will soon notice that something's definitely off. The cracks in the sky are appearing more frequently and lasting for minutes at a time, and there's a strange white fog drifting over the clouds.

For those who've just arrived, welcome to our new little town! We're sure you're glad to see your missing friends again; nothing to worry about here, they've just been too busy enjoying the upgraded carnival to go back home. Any bleeding limbs or serious wounds you may spot are obviously just a sign of how much fun they've been having.]

OOC: If your character damages or affects the carnival or town in a noticeable and normally permanent way, please comment here.

Yeah, I hear the man-eatin' rats don't come in here.

Maybe it's the milk.

[kinship]

Whatever the reason, I think it's not a blessing that should be sniffed at.

[noluckduck]

Yeah.

... I was kiddin' about the milk anyway. I don't remember it bein' there before.

[kinship]

It's probably a warning, a sign that we should be aware danger is coming for us.

[After all, milk only means one thing in Mayfield, right?]

[noluckduck]

Oh, like just bein' here isn't enough.

[kinship]

That's a very good point, but... I don't think the appearance of the milk can be coincidental.

[noluckduck]

I guess somebody could've put it there. For some reason.

[kinship]

I think Mrs. Johnson has something to do with this, her pictures are all over the tunnel in the carnival.

[noluckduck]

That's... Shit, the crazy one?! I mean, the one who did the operations and all?

[kinship]

...that's her.

[He had hoped never to come in contact with her again. Ever.]

[noluckduck]

Fff--

[Oh, yeah. She was trying not to swear in front of Cain, wasn't she? Even though he acts much older than he actually is.]

But... Y'know, I kinda got the impression she didn't get along all that well with the rest of the bigwigs.

[kinship]

Maybe not some of them, but... if she wasn't liked by at least one of the people in charge, I don't think she would even have been allowed to start what she did.

[Which isn't a very soothing thought, really.]

[noluckduck]

Didn't she start doin' the surgeries without permission, though? Hell, I wouldn't be surprised if I was gettin' things wrong, that was not a good week...

[kinship]

She did?

[Damn, how hadn't he known that? He dislikes gaps in his knowledge.]

I thought... I guess I was wrong.

[noluckduck]

Nah, man, like I said... it's totally possible I've got things backwards. Since... Y'know.

[kinship]

Regardless of whether she was sanctioned in her actions, she's still a dangerous person and we should stay away from that tunnel.

[noluckduck]

Hey, I ain't even plannin' on leavin' the church.

[kinship]

Then you're a lot smarter than most of the people here.
