WEEK SEVEN: MINGLE






W̴͍̎E̴̝̊E̸͚͝K̸͕̿ SEVEN: MINGLE

(18 ḡ̴̻u̷͌͜ê̴̯s̶̢͑t̵̻͝s̴̡̐ ̴c̴h̴e̶c̴k̷e̶d̸ ̶i̴n̴)


Good morning, esteemed guests.

Ha. Hahaha.

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.

In addition, should you enter the elevator you will find...nothing? There are no new buttons. However, if you look on the Mezzanine you will find a few new areas to peruse. These rooms are still locked from the outside, but perhaps you may ask politely and be granted access. In addition, as you explore the hotel you will find that you have now lost access to certain rooms. How odd.

The portraits from the week before continue to hang in various parts of the hallways and in the rooms themselves, continuing to depict innocuous scenes. Like before, if you linger just a touch too long, you'll soon find that you and whomever you're with will be lost in a swirl of shadows and pulled directly into the portrait itself. You will have to find your way out just like before.

Strangely, however, you no longer have that connection with the person you are with. You're no longer in sync, unable to feel their thoughts or movement or really even have to cooperate. Instead, regardless of where you are in the hotel whether it's inside a portrait, a door, or even your own room, you will begin to experience a feeling of numbness. Perhaps it starts in your body, the inability to feel pain or the touch of someone's hand. Maybe it infiltrates your emotions, quieting everything you've been feeling lately to an even, neutral stance. After a while, you may become so numb you feel yourself fading away entirely, a limb slowly being erased, but you can quickly snap back if someone addresses you.

Try to keep yourselves grounded, everyone.

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.

[this callout...]

Hey, that's a bit... on the nose, don't you think?
technocool: (f001)

[personal profile] technocool 2022-07-28 05:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Well it explains a lot!!
feminitis: (say what now?)

[personal profile] feminitis 2022-07-28 05:44 pm (UTC)(link)
It does... crap, was it obvious I wasn't who I said I was?

The hot and cold thing!

[ she's still hung up about that?? ]

I knew something was up when those profiles were revealed!!
feminitis: (whaaaaa)

[personal profile] feminitis 2022-07-28 05:51 pm (UTC)(link)
That early? So smart...!

I suppose we're all lucky you're more clever than the Nightman, then, because he didn't seem to have noticed anything was off until very recently.

[ she pushes her glasses up like WHY YES, I AM A GENIUS (except unfortunately, i, ari have peas for brains) ]

It's all in the little details!!
feminitis: (the fuck.)

[personal profile] feminitis 2022-07-28 06:40 pm (UTC)(link)
I see...

[said in the sort of tone that implies sei would be taking notes if there was something to take notes with]

[ sometimes i bemoan i didn't have the time to tag you more. then i realize just how much of a disaster this would have ended up. bullet dodged?!

futaba on the other hand is nodding seriously ]


Fake it till you make it is the word to live by! No one will ever know you don't know anything if you pretend you know everything!
feminitis: (shithead smile ver 3.452)

[personal profile] feminitis 2022-07-29 06:36 pm (UTC)(link)
[sei is also nodding seriously. perhaps the rest of the game dodged a bullet here but this is a bullet that would have been absolutely hysterical if they hadn't dodged i think]

I see! Those are words of wisdom indeed.

[Oh No]

[ it's fine they can speedrun shenanigans ]

Right? Right!! There's nothing like looking at a situation and sweating bullets but confidently telling everyone you've totally got this while not having a single clue. It's basically the weekly trial experience! And we're definitely gonna need a whole lot of that confidence within the next couple of days.

[this makes sei giggle]

All right! Everyone summon up all the confidence they've got, and let's act accordingly!
technocool: (IMG_1985)

[personal profile] technocool 2022-07-29 07:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah!!! We've totally got this!
feminitis: (reeeally?)

[personal profile] feminitis 2022-07-29 09:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Exactly! Keep that attitude up. As long as you continue to persist, no one can beat you. You're only beaten for sure once you've given up.
