The message comes by carrier pigeon actually, which is a pretty weird way to deliver a message but of course, it's thematic. A very pretty looking brown pigeon swoops down out of the sky to wherever Milla just so happens to be that afternoon and holds out its leg. The message is short and simple:
Got a job for you. Meet me at the farm at dusk. No show, no job. Keep it a secret, rewarded very well.
- Hal
P.S. Burn this.
And that's it. Of course, if Milla chooses to listen to the message, she will find the Sheriff at the farm at dusk, chewing a piece of tobacco and watching the sun set. She'll be greeted with a tip of his hat and one word:
"Bounty."
And then he holds out a small notebook. Looks like Milla's been chosen for one of those roles that were mentioned. Good luck.
[OH BOY OH BOY does Milla have a lot for him this week]
[she leaves the usual note in the suggestion box again, though this time Milla can be found waiting for Hal near one of the apple trees at the farm. she's picking the ripest of ripe fruits she can find, and she already has an armful when he arrives]
We may be here a while. I have much to discuss with you. But first: can you give me an update on the other Bounties?
[ Aw shucks, Milla. He considers this question for a moment. ]
... Yes. Typically, I'd only answer that to the Bounty Leader but I don't know if they'll think to ask anytime soon. So, I'll give you that answer for now.
[FOR AS MUCH AS WEEK 3 SUCKED, Milla is, at least, pretty pleased with this bit of progress. a possible trail to the Bounty Leader, confirmation that she needs to avoid the Deputy, and knowledge that if they get creative there may be another way bedsides MURDER to end this game? SCORE]
If I do manage to find them, I'll be sure to pass on the information.
[she looks a little smug someone may need to knock her down a peg or two]

Bounty Leader's got their knickers in a twist trying to find ya. Is getting close to understanding who they're looking for though.
You other two Bounties are working hard too. You've been talking to them, even if you ain't aware it's them you're talking to.

I had a feeling. A certain few seem to be getting an awful lot of information on roles from "undisclosed sources."
[ha]
I believe I might have a lead on who the Lead Bounty is myself, but before I pursue it I wanted to clarify some game rules.
Is killing the role that is after the Bounties the only way to potentially end the game early?
no subject
[ But he pauses a sec, considering. ]
... This doesn't mean I ain't open to other suggestions though, but they'd have to be really good ones. Something very clever.
no subject
You are a reasonable man.
[which!! still annoys her!! gawd. but she's grateful for it too]
I have no suggestions at this point in time, but you've given me a new angle from which to look at this game.
. . . as well as confirmation that my lead may be a good one.
[time to hit Percy up after this yep yep]

I'm only here to facilitate, not impede. Good to know you're working hard though.

[as angry as she gets at him sometimes, she has definitely filed him away into the "helpful resource" category. she is a hard worker!!!]
Is the role that's looking for the Bounties the Deputy?
