WEEK SEVEN: FAREWELL

[guestservices]

FAREWELL

(0 ḡ̴̻u̷͌͜ê̴̯s̶̢͑t̵̻͝s̴̡̐ ̴c̴h̴e̶c̴k̷e̶d̸ ̶i̴n̴)

As Sunday morning arrives…you may find yourself actually sleeping in? For the first time in several weeks, you do not find yourself awakening at 9am. You don’t have that slight nagging feeling that you’re going to be late. You don’t feel pressed to rush out the door and go somewhere.

The restaurant is currently serving a piping hot breakfast, and your luggage is packed nice and neatly. Somewhere outside, it’s almost like you can hear the pleasant chirping of birds.

And then…the hotel begins to rumble. It’s the same ominous, quaking movement, building swaying from side to side before the front door of the lobby suddenly bursts open. Your stay at the hotel is over, dear guests. But perhaps you ought to venture outside and see what’s new.

Along the grounds of the hotel are several portals that have been opened, dark swirling shadows that remain for you to venture through once you’re ready to depart. However, these portals work in two directions. While you have the understanding that stepping through one of these portals will send you wherever you’d like, you may notice there are people starting to exit through them.

Your hostages are safe. They are delivered one by one, unharmed and returned to you for you to bring them back where they belong. The original staff also appears to finally be released...do be careful with them.

But that’s not all. Every now and then the portal will flicker and someone new and unexpected will exit. Your friends from home may step through these portals. You may recognize some of these as people that you’ve met in your previous murder adventures, too. All of them seem to be in possession of a flyer that reads:

Congratulations! You’ve won an all-expenses paid visit to the Starlight Hotel. Check-in begins at 3. Please sign on the dotted line upon arrival.

You may want to warn them, actually.

You don’t have to be a guest of the hotel to enjoy its fine amenities one last time. All of the floors have been opened once again, and every room is accessible except for your previous bedrooms. You will also find that you’ve been unnerfed, powers you once possessed returning to you and back where they belong.

Everything is peaceful…until you hear the sound of the Nightman.

H̸o̷w̴ ̴c̸o̷u̸l̵d̸ ̵y̸o̴u̸ ̸n̵o̶t̶ ̸f̶i̷n̵d̷ ̴a̴ ̴l̷o̶o̵p̴h̴o̶l̴e̵?̷ ̸N̷o̴w̵ ̵t̴h̷e̴y̷'̴r̵e̶ ̸a̶l̷l̸ ̷f̶r̵e̸e̵!̵

Hm…too bad. It seems as though the proprietor of this hotel is unhappy with circumstances. But regardless of where you look, you wouldn’t be able to find him. Seems like he’s gone off to try and restructure his business model.

As a parting gift from the Starlight Hotel, you will find that your typewriters are now pocket-sized palm pilot models. You do want to stay in touch, don’t you? It’s been several long weeks for all of you…

…you can check out anytime you want, but you can finally leave.

Happy Golden End, friends! You may use this post to thread out your final day at the hotel. You can thread with your hostages if you'd like. In addition this post is open to past gamemates or canonmates. You are free to bring characters from previous games or their canonmates to play off of each other.

As the post states, everyone's powers are back and you have universal texting. Fun! Characters will be able to return to their own worlds or depart for another world of their choosing whenever they'd like to leave.

Should you have any questions about their current condition, or simply questions about endgame mechanics in general, please feel free to ask us. Have fun!

I don't think that magnets for trouble really have to go looking for it - isn't that entirely why they're magnets?

[THEY'RE JUST DOING LITERALLY WHATEVER AND GET BODYSLAMMED.]

[ercnerd]

[He heaves a sigh, because Souji isn't wrong.]

Haven't I dealt with enough trouble in the last year alone? Trouble can find another magnet for the next one!

[illomened]

[HE ISN'T!! HE IS RIGHT! He also reaches out to pat Sieghart's newly formed arm.]

I think that wishing for such a thing is pointless when you're in this group of people, who are all magnets for trouble and misfortunes in general.

[ercnerd]

Ugh.

[Suddenly he wants to leave this place. Where's Mari? She'd better hurry it up.]

It's a good thing there isn't much technology here.

[illomened]

Why? What does technology have to do with poor fortune?

[Imagine the absolute horrors...]

[ercnerd]

Mari's obsessed with machinery. As long as there isn't too much to look at, she should be ready to move out before long.

[illomened]

Ah... [Naruhodo...] --And you'll move out soon after, hm?

[ercnerd]

Exactly.

How much longer are you going to stay here?

[illomened]

I'm not sure... Until more people clear out, or until Kondo-san wants to go back.

[ercnerd]

Is he here? I must have missed him earlier.

[illomened]

He is! [Or Souji would still be unmovingly glued to the portal room waiting...] Ah - would you like to meet him?

[i aki have to say this because souji would want to show his precious kondo-san off to his favorite guest but i refuse to rp kondo isami]

[ercnerd]

[Coward.]

There's no need to interrupt his tour. I'll see him eventually.

[He's not one to go out of his way to meet new people, either.]

[illomened]

He's probably getting into trouble as we speak. [Fond...] At least say hello before you leave, alright?

[HE LOVES IT WHEN HIS FRIENDS ARE FRIENDS!! And now Sieghart will be able to meet him whole and not rotting!!]

[ercnerd]

[Souji spreads trouble while Kondo gets wrapped up in it. What a duo. Sieghart much prefers them both hale and hearty rather than rail thin and rotting.]

Mm, I will. At the very least, he should be easy to spot in a crowd.

[illomened]

[THEY ARE A TERRIBLE DUO... But same hat, wow, he would also prefer them both like that.]

He is! Even if you can't see him, you can hear his voice above almost anyone else's, haha.

[ercnerd]

Heh. Our hostages certainly are opposites, aren't they?

[Kondo is big and loud. Mari is small and quiet.]

[illomened]

[Small and quiet mad scientist Mari...]

Oh, that's a little funny! I wonder if the two of them would get along...

[Or rather, he wonders if they had, considering they were potentially just vibin in hell for weeks.]

[ercnerd]

Hmm . . . Would they? I don't know. Mari prefers to be alone in the quiet.

[Sieghart himself is already a lot for Mari to handle. Kondo would be overkill.]

[illomened]

Oh, dear... Kondo-san can be quiet when the situation calls for it, but it's certainly not something he defaults to. Perhaps it's best if their paths don't cross, then.

[No he thinks everyone should meet and love Kondo Isami but it's fine...]

[ercnerd]

That's up to them. Mari's the type to stay put in one place for a long time. There's a good chance that Kondo will simply cross paths with her.

[illomened]

You say that, but she was buzzing about all over the place just moments ago...

[SHE'S ON THE SIEGHUNT.]

[ercnerd]

That's because she's looking for me. Once she gets distracted by something, she'll forget about me until she's done taking it apart and putting it back together.

[illomened]

Is that where her interests lie? What an unusual person...

[Does he really have room to judge given the company he himself keeps.]

[ercnerd]

[No.]

She's from Kounat. Engineering is in her blood. That's why she's determined to take me apart: She's convinced that my body was altered with technology to acquire immortality.

[illomened]

But it wasn't, right?

[GIRL HELP. Not that he can ever judge anyone for simply not taking someone else's word for something again after Virgo Door Heist.]
