(32 ḡ̴̻u̷͌͜ê̴̯s̶̢͑t̵̻͝s̴̡̐ ̴c̴h̴e̶c̴k̷e̶d̸ ̶i̴n̴)

Good morning, esteemed guests. What a terrible day to be awake. But perhaps it's a little easier now that you've experienced two executions...congratulations to you for the send-off of a teenage girl.

As you awaken on Monday, you’ll find that things are just as they were the night before. The kitchen will serve piping hot breakfast during the morning hours, the pool’s been stocked with fresh towels and the gardens are open for anyone who wishes to spend some time among nature. However, should you explore a bit, you’ll find that a few new changes have been made to the hotel itself.

Your room service menus are still on your desks if you wish to browse before leaving for the day.

The front door no longer spins endlessly, for one thing. Should you make an attempt to exit the hotel, you will find yourself entering a new location. Some of you may even find this place familiar.

In addition, should you enter the elevator you will find a new button appears, proudly reading 02. Pushing this button will take you to a new floor where you will also find a few new areas to peruse. Explore to your heart’s content, get to know more of the hotel, and take your time in learning more about each other.

You may be trying to learn about each other, but what do you do when you hardly recognize one another? It's unfortunate that this week is one where appearances are no longer a solid identifier. Throughout the week you will find your body taking on new features against your own will. Whether these are animalistic features, elemental features, feathers, shadows, stone, magma...extra eyes, fangs, wings...they will adapt to you and you'll hardly feel a thing. Time to get comfortable in your skin.

Finally, for those of you with a spare ticket in your pocket, feel free to visit the Starlight Gift Shop, stocked with new items for this week.

[agleam]

My apologies for that.

[thinking, for a few seconds...]

Um, when you say - no, sorry, let me start over. How many would you prefer?

[sageguidance]

Two is fine. Unless, of course, you are able to spare a third...?

[agleam]

[tiny pause, thinking...]

We can spare whatever would please you most, sir. Do you have any preferences as to color for the pillowcases?

[sageguidance]

[ alphinaud has a brief "this is really happening" moment before: ]

They can be any color?

[agleam]

Yes.

[...]

I am, er, fairly sure. Would you like me to check to confirm...?

[sageguidance]

... No, no, that will not be necessary. Simply white will do.

[agleam]

Very well. Excuse me for one moment.

[he starts to walk off before pausing and giving him an awkward half bow. it's fine. then he's hurrying off to housekeeping!!]

[sageguidance]

[ he will wait! patiently. even if this is kind of weird. ]

[agleam]

[coming back with three pillows! they look like they've just recently been fluffed.]

Will these be to your liking?

[sageguidance]

[ holy shit, he actually has pillows. Alphinaud accepts all three, mildly puzzled, but they are very cozy... very fluffy... who could complain? ]

Yes, that will do. You have my thanks, ser—I do believe I will have a comfortable rest henceforth.
