(24 ḡ̴̻u̷͌͜ê̴̯s̶̢͑t̵̻͝s̴̡̐ ̴c̴h̴e̶c̴k̷e̶d̸ ̶i̴n̴)

Good morning, esteemed guests. You had quite an eventful weekend, didn't you? Let's see how you're able to move on now...

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. However, you will find that upon entering the location, the area to the north is fixed to one place.

In addition, should you enter the elevator you will find a new button appears, proudly reading 05. 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.

After everything last week, you may feel like it's time to put all of your feelings back inside and bury them away. You were...affectionate? How embarrassing for you. Perhaps that's something you'd like to forget. Conveniently for you...that may happen to you this week. Throughout the week, guests will find that they will experience small instances of "loss" occurring to them. You may find yourself losing certain memories, certain skills, or even certain senses. Don't worry, they will always come back after a while! But it seems that these instances come and go without warning. Hopefully you can prepare yourself for that.

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.

Pretty sure that's just a general don't dig up graves rule.

[aono]

Is this gonna be a problem here? Because when Kazu said "they're not wrong about the eating thing", I'm pretty sure he's talking about how we talked about how the dead in one of the games were getting eaten and I had said "it's probably not that here" about it.

[STOP VORING OUR DEAD!!!]

[toesies]

Does yoga count? That feels like it would at least be a little fun.

[unbested]

Oh. [ blinks ] Like with the skeletons that are there watching during executions?

[unrecked]

[Holds up a page of the notebook that has SUSPICIOUS written on it. But then also:

What if the dead can't get back in the way they arrived because their bodies are gone or in pieces, huh?]

[battling]

If anybody wants to mail somethin' to the dead today, we might as well make plans now.

[supremity]

[ ok, well. he's watched enough of this. ]

I don't know what your experience was, but in ours, confessing to any of the murders - practically all of which were compelled, borderline possession if you didn't take the soft hand offered when approached to kill - would have gotten you punished and likely killed. Even us Watchers couldn't discuss it privately with those that had killed, lest we put them in harm's way.

None of them, but especially Diluc after having been in our scenario with that over our heads, had any reason to believe that they could safely come clean. So just be glad that they safely can at all so that we can understand how the shadows work.

[aono]

Dunno, I haven't tried yoga before. Is it like meditating?

[unbested]

Uh, I think Sheila has the actual notebook, but it seemed like it was a personal thing for Aquarius, so... I didn't know if all of it really needed to be shared out loud...

[mustbepurged]

[She just looks very sad. It takes a bit before she can find something to say...]

... Thank you for telling us.

[battling]

Sieg's note said something like "My eyes are open" wonder if that means they're able to see more.

[outsidebones]

Yes, I think it's not relevant.

[wisterin]

[ these are shinobu's sentiments, too. ]

[preowned]

It just seems odd to me, since in a lot of cases we aren't attacking each other. Sometimes you are just being thrown against walls by a girl who seemed oddly overpowered compared to everyone else.

[headmt]

Lots of ... metaphors and such about dreams and waking, yeah?

[supremity]

I trust Kaeya to have it under control. If the rat problem is taken care of, the rat problem is taken care of.

[battling]

Sometimes you end up in dungeons with killer robots.

[headmt]

Eh, a body is pretty easy to replace.

[outsidebones]

[rude.]

Well, that would be very unfortunate. Not likely, I think, for several reasons including that I know more about necromancy than you do. But it would indeed be not ideal.

However, I'm only telling you what I know, which is that their disappearance is not relevant to this discussion.

[skyagain]

... Right. Wouldn't make sense for it to be proof of anything that might have happened in the past.

[evocationary]

The UWU isn't here.

So it's not the UWU eating the dead, and also it didn't eat bodies, it ate their essences. So it's different than our game. Let's just - make that clear. Like just in general.

[battling]

[He makes such a face. Are they asleep? Are they asleep and stuck "living" in somebody's nightmare entertainment?]

Sure seems like it.

[evocationary]

It's always four minutes, too. With the doors.

[outsidebones]

Yes, exactly.

[mustbepurged]

Really?

[and here we've just been using them for shitposting]

Um, maybe I should take you up on that...
