sixth loop

SUPERBIA

On midnight of the seventh day, it happens again. Time rewinds itself back to the Executors' starting point, putting them right back at the beginning of the loop. This is now their sixth time experiencing the events of the Superbia loop. Some of the school's long hidden secrets are starting to come to light... but is it enough to bring them close to breaking the loop once and for all? Only time will tell. Use this log to investigate during this seven day period and drop a comment down to the Investigation Request subheader if you'd like to explore. If you're continuing or building off of a previous loop's investigation results, please link to it in your comment. If you need a refresher on the loop mechanics, check out this post. Good luck, Executors.

I promise. We don’t want anyone else to be hurt, and that includes you.

[She moves to give Miss President’s hand a little squeeze.]

[discutio]

We aren’t here to hurt anyone.

[Phoenix held out his hand towards her, in an offer of a handshake.]

I give you my word on that.

[ It takes a moment for her to be coaxed into conviction but eventually, Miss President reaches out and takes both Etoile and Phoenix's hands in her own. For a moment of anticlimax, nothing happens.

And then... time suddenly seems to shift.

All the Executors feel it, even if Phoenix and Etoile are the ones with the strongest sense for it. You feel something straining and shuddering to move, mechanisms screaming back into motion after so long spent inert they've forgotten that they could move at all. The world tilts to and fro in a dizzying dance that makes your stomach leap into your throat. And then just as suddenly as it started, it stops again as if nothing had happened.

But something has changed. For the first time in far too many years.

Authority Reclaimed. ]

...gracious. Did everyone else feel that?

[She's including Miss President in this question, for the record.]

[etincelledefierte]

Yes. Like a clock that's been rusted and immobile for entirely too long finally starting to work again.

[there's something else, too, but she's not sure how to describe it.]

[discutio]

I felt it, too. I can't quite explain it past what Etoile said, but...I think we've everything well in hand at the moment.

[swordofajerk]

Finally.

[Is he upset that there was no fighting this time or is he just Typical Cranky? Yes.]

We should let the others know, and then get ready.
