What's with this? Roughly one out every six residents is exhibiting abnormal behavior. One out of every six - unusually low. If it's deviated from the pattern once, then it might do so again - will this end when the week is up?

Another deviant... a similar case... connected with the melons? Are they the key to unlocking this puzzle?

Sakura, are you...feeling all right?

Filtered

[cherrygloves]

Physically, yes.

...I'm worried.

Re: Filtered

[son_of_sigurd]

...Why? What's the matter?

Re: Filtered

[cherrygloves]

This new... whatever you'd call it.

They're getting harder and harder to predict. The melons were, too, but at least they were benign. But this. It feels... sinister.

[cherrygloves]

What's with that face? Did they get her, too? Should I start sleeping on the roof, or will that tip her off?

What?

[vespa_alien]

HEY I just thought I should mention, I think I might have heard someone going through your stuff last night.

Or maybe I didn't.

[cherrygloves]

Shit! It must have been THEM! They found out I'm onto them aasdfsdj need a plan need a plan. Okay, okay, calm down I can do this.

*Sakura makes a variety of entertaining expressions as she monologues, ending with a somewhat glassy smile as she heads over to her pack*

Haruko? I'm going to trap the window. Don't open or close it after this, okay?

[rainbowjudgment]

.. Hey, are you all right?

[cherrygloves]

Oh, fine, just fine...

I haven't seen him before - well, I have, but I haven't talked to him? Why now? One of them? They must be onto me.

[rainbowjudgment]

You sure? I can send some food over if you need it. Or a book? Or... um, something that'll take your mind off your troubles?

[cherrygloves]

What does he take me for? There's no way this could be anything but a trap, it's that transparent... But is that only the surface? Maybe he's an enemy of theirs, searching for a fellow resistor.

...Actually, a book sounds good. Sure.

[nikopolian]

Something to do with the retarded melons? I hear bullshit like this is common and random.

[cherrygloves]

It's more subtle than that.

Just a common thug type, or is that what he wants me to think? I may have made a mistake letting on I know this much - but they'd already know I know at least this much about them. It would be far more suspicious to stay silent.

[nikopolian]

Subtle.

[cherrygloves]

How long have you been here?

[for_revenge]

One-sixth... perhaps only certain people are being targeted? That brings up the question of why, though.

The only things I can think of is some people being more susceptible, whatever is doing this can only target a limited number of people, or... whatever's doing this just wants to mess with us.

Ah, but I'm rambling now.

[cherrygloves]

But why, say, Hanataro?

If anything, it's that first theory, maybe the third.
