MEETING: TUESDAY, WEEK 4

[violentenvies]

[Hello and welcome to the cafeteria. Salieri has set up one of the tables with some sandwiches and water, as well as papers and pencils. Once everyone is settled, Salieri stands. He’s conferred with the SQUIP on the purpose of this meeting, and so clears his throat. It’s a much smaller crowd, but perhaps, with the right amount of push, they can still make a difference.]

Good afternoon. Thank you all for coming. I have discussed today’s topics with the SQUIP, and have organized them by topic, so that we may be sure to address all areas.

INVESTIGATION PART 1

[violentenvies]

First of all: Investigations of our surroundings. I have heard that going down the road here only brings one back to the school. This is similar to on the living side where the woods lead back to the garden. Cassandra reported that the school and its grounds are surrounded in a dark void.

PLACES THAT HAVE ALREADY BEEN INVESTIGATED

[violentenvies]

Now...is there anywhere within the school that have already been investigated?

Possible Door in the Costume Room (LP and B) & BRUTE FORCING IT MAYBE

[violentenvies]

With that knowledge, I’d like to propose a thought I had: if we cannot get out by traveling, is there perhaps another way through somewhere inside this school? I’ve noticed that many of the carvings that were on the other side are not here. The only one here is the one about Never Giving Up in the Costume Room. Perhaps could there be some kind of doorway in there that we have just not found or accessed? Therefore, Balladeer or Leading Player, if there was a doorway, could you find it? Or some other means of access? Failing that, perhaps there’s a brute force way that we could get through there. [he glances pointedly at Varian and Discord for that]

[disharmonizes]

Brute force, you say.

[now you're speaking his language]

[tellthestory]

Uh - yeah, I can take a look.

[He says, pointedly not really looking at the Leading Player. It's fine, he saw her do the door thing once, he can probably replicate it.]

Where's this carving, was this a new one you found?

INVESTIGATION PART 2 (aka signups)

[violentenvies]

Finally, on this topic, I would like to suggest a further, more thorough investigation of our surroundings. I don’t know if there’s anything else to find here like there is on the living side, but we should at least rule it out. I would like to recommend that whomever does so takes precautionary measures. If you’re climbing, tie yourself to something that might catch you. Bring emergency supplies. Tell someone where you’re going, or even better, go in pairs when possible.

SECONDARY CHARACTERS??

[violentenvies]

Next, I’d like to address our further role in this story.

DEFINITION OF "SECONDARY"

[violentenvies]

The Pamphlet says we’ve been relegated to secondary characters; Leading Player or Monsieur Balladeer, could you perhaps clarify what that means, exactly?

THE LIBRETTO *AND* THE MUSIC

[violentenvies]

Furthermore, the SQUIP has mentioned a way to perhaps affect the story by changing the script. I’ll admit that I’m not entirely sure what that means, however, seeing as music seems to be an intrinsic part of our experience here, I would like to suggest that perhaps having a conductor and a composer to help direct the music and predict it could perhaps be a benefit. After all, the Libretto is only half of the show.

CONTACTING THE LIVING

[violentenvies]

Finally, I would like to address any attempts to contact the living.

EXPERIENCE IN CONTACT UP UNTIL NOW

[violentenvies]

I know there was some contact during the camp out last Sunday. I was hoping someone would be able to expand on that, and further what your own experiences with that have been.

WHOMST IS NANA???

[violentenvies]

Additionally, someone named Nana is mentioned in the Pamphlet. I’ve heard the name before--Maya has spoken to me about her. I was wondering if anyone here could perhaps illuminate a bit more about her?

GENERAL MEETING CHATTER

[violentenvies]

Now...is there anything else that should be addressed?

[Here's a space for general meeting chatter/anything not covered above]

[samefacesyndrome]

[ Rina is falling asleep I’m so sorry

She was playing video games ALL NIGHT ]

WHAT WE KNOW SO FAR

[violentenvies]

[at the Balladeer's suggestion, Salieri raps his knuckles on the table for attention]

Now...let's be very specific and see if we can better discover the shape of things.

What do we know so far?

About the Wizard, about Hester, about our Situation in general?

[tellthestory]

Oh...most of you know this already, but...well, I said in the video that I'd be playing in the garden, if any of them wanted to try and connect. I don't really know that anything'll happen - it just seemed nice to try and be with them, if they wanted that.

[Truthfully, he doesn't expect anything to happen. But if they want him there, there he'll be.]

Anyone's welcome to join me. I try to do a couple hours a day, at least.
