════════ ⋆ ★ 27 DOODZ REMAIN ★ ⋆ ════════

Whew, what a stressful way to end a week! After that, maybe our heroes could use a relaxing stroll downtown? Just hop on the S.U.P.E.R. to check out the new locations!

This week Amethyst Snake, Crimson Phoenix, White Tiger, and Yellow Rabbit can be found patrolling the city or watching construction.

If you wander the streets, you're sure to run into a prinny or two trying to sell you the Monday newspaper. Looks like there is something spicy this week! Luckily, you always seem to have the right amount of cash for such things.

Should heroes go stargazing at night, they will find that the moon appears to be in the new moon phase. Yes, all week. Villains tend to wander more at night, however, so the local authorities would suggest staying in after dark, unless you plan to try your hand at fighting crime. They welcome the help.

It appears that they have earned some new tokens to use on the AMAZOOM app. What cards will they get this week?

You may not be feeling cuddly anymore, but now there's a new problem. When you go to use your personal powers this week, you'll find that it does something you're not expecting. Hey, isn't that someone else's power? Better learn how that works fast, before you cause more problems in the city!

Early Monday morning, all heroes receive a message from the RANKINGS app on their phone:

This week's hero rankings are as follows:

1st. Gold Mouse

2nd. Aquamarine Fox

3rd. Crimson Phoenix

4th. Amethyst Snake

5th. White Tiger

6th. Emerald Goat

7th. Cobalt Ox

8th. Yellow Rabbit

Congratulations, heroes, and keep up the good work!

LOCATION UPDATES

WEEK 3, MONDAY

★ All locations have been repaired and restored to normal. Except for your dorm doors. Those are still missing, unless you're lucky enough to live at the Crimson Phoenix or Yellow Rabbit dorms.
★ The hero memorial now has framed photos of Satan, Yae Miko, and Hans.
★ The Mayor is still under protective care this week.
★ ~~Tarkea is on fire.~~ The fire is out! Thank you for your hard work, heroes!
★ There are signs of a small, localized explosion outside the entrance of Rosy Herbs.

WEEK 3, TUESDAY

★ The art store is a mess: aisles are now all toppled over and crumpled up like tin foil, broken merchandise strewn all over, paint splatters everywhere from crushed paint tubes, canvases slashed, pastels and crayons reduced to dust, etc.
★ Trending on Instawham is a lot of video about the firefight at Tarkea! The video shows Sigreat, Vanine, Rave, Guardian, and Beauty doing their best to fight the fires. It is heavily edited during the parts featuring Beauty, and at one point she appears to heroically pull a prinny out of a trash can. All of the comments are about how incredible our heroes are, interspersed with comments from people who bought appliances from Tarkea and now are afraid for their lives given the rumors that the fire was caused by an electrical malfunction.

WEEK 3, WEDNESDAY

★ A new viral gif is taking over the internet! It's a new version of Disco Pardiman featuring Defiant Dragon doing a slow rock rendition of the famous laser eyes.
★ There's a lot of chatter on Instawham about politics today. Some people are suggesting we should have a special election to replace the Mayor. The name on most people's lips? Guardian. Could he announce a campaign any day now?
★ There are several wanted posters hastily pasted across the town! There's one for Temenos Mistral, Nimona, Nico Robin, and Portgas D. Ace. These posters are drawn in a sketchy, almost fingerpainted style, but they're clearly recognizable as the people they're supposed to represent, save for some exaggerated features. Ace has more freckles than usual, Nimona has shark teeth, Robin is flexing and winking, and Temenos has little red devil horns. The reward for catching them is 40 billion dollars, or a bag of chips, which will be decided at the time they are delivered to a smudged out location that nobody can parse.
★ A printed sign has been posted in each dorm's entrance (or on the door, if they have one) that reads "FOR YOUR INFORMATION" in big letters. Below are images of two separate notes, one handwritten and the other a newspaper clipping.
★ All the merchandise in Sew Crafty has been thrown to the floor and smashed. Some of the shelves are dented. Some of the bolts of fabric are singed.

what's the goss?

Are the heroes really as good as they claim? The Guardian (pictured to the right) has been seen working part time in the Cutting Edge Gadgetry store. Sources say that all of the chef statues have been smashed in the days surrounding his appearance there. Could he have smashed them all in a jealous fit over their amazing mustache? Is this linked to the destruction in Tarkea or what has happened to the Mayor's house? Only time can tell.

Witnesses claim that Beauty has heading to the Purikura Booths every midnight, and that Danny Phantom has been doing the same. Sources are divided, however, on whether the two are holding secret trysts or enacting cult rituals. A minority of witnesses suggest that villainous plotting may also be afoot, or perhaps the two are in fact preparing against a villainous conspiracy instead.

DEAR NO MORE NIGHTLIGHT: Do you think that the moon is real? Why does someone have to tell you it is to believe it, and why would you believe them? Anything is only as real as you think it is. When you forget your dependence on perceptions and definitions, then you will be free.
