[ After we've gotten our clothes and items back, Kate can be found by the stream, changed into her regular clothes.

There's a white robe hanging from a nearby tree branch, apparently drying after being washed. While she waits, Kate sits on a rock by the stream and peers into the water. From behind, she probably looks like an ordinary girl. ]

[segnale]

[nona's also back in her normal clothes, though when she sees someone peering into the water, she walks on over.]

Oh, careful! There are leeches in there...

[sootprints]

Ah... yes, don't worry. I don't plan on swimming in there.

[ she will turn to face her... with her non-face. hi. ]

[segnale]

[gives a little start because she was not expecting that









but don't be rude nona don't be rude don't stare this is probably normal somewhere out there—]

... That's good! What were you doing, then? Looking for something?

[sootprints]

[ you know what, fair. she'll give her a moment to process what she's looking at. ]

I'm waiting for the laundry to dry. [ her single white robe. ]

And I think I saw a fish in there...

[segnale]

[ ! ]

Fish? Really?

[goes to join her in peering into the water]

I was hoping for maybe some kind of food source that wasn't rats or really suspicious meals possibly made by ghosts...

[sootprints]

I was hoping the same. It's never a good idea to rely on your kidnappers for food and drinks...

Do you know how to fish?

[segnale]

... No, but I'm sure I can learn!

[sootprints]

That's a good attitude to have.

I'm sure we can acquire sticks easily. We would just need some kind of string or thread, and a hook.

[segnale]

The hook might be the hard part, but there's got to be string somewhere... Or we can always try unthreading part of a robe.

[sootprints]

Yes. I'm sure we can find something to use in one of those abandoned buildings... the house, or the theater, perhaps.

[segnale]

[nods]

And I'll keep an eye out for a hook! Or anything that can be used as a hook... if we get creative, maybe a piece of glass or something like that could work.

[sootprints]

Maybe if there are metal coils in the furniture...? Or something of the sort.

[segnale]

Ohhh, smart! [claps her hands together] I wouldn't have thought of that at all.

[sootprints]

Well, we won't know unless we try it.

[segnale]

I agree! Besides, all that really matters is if the fish get caught on it, even if it's not the most efficient, right?

week 0, monday

[segnale]

[hewwo kate... nona bounds over to her when she sees her.]

Hi, Kate! Apparently you can request things from the... cult members supervising us? It sounds like they might be able to get us a fishing rod, although they don't think the fish are safe to eat.

1/2

[sootprints]

Ah... really? That's all right, I was able to make one...

[sootprints]

... They're what?

[segnale]

Well, I don't know if they're unsafe, exactly, but Famine seemed to think it was a bad idea with the leeches...

[sootprints]

... I don't suppose Famine had any better ideas.

[segnale]

Heh... I think they were more interested in judging my ideas than anything. But it sounded like they were still willing to assist, so they weren't all bad!

[sootprints]

They certainly have some odd ideas of their own. I'm not sure what to think of them...

... Famine especially, but all of them, really.

[segnale]

Hm... what's your opinion so far? Even if you're not sure of anything yet.

[sootprints]

I... would hesitate to judge before I have more information.

Whether they're allies or deceivers, they provide a useful window to what lies beyond what we can see here. I think... it's best to try to make use of that, as much as we can.
