(35 ḡ̴̻u̷͌͜ê̴̯s̶̢͑t̵̻͝s̴̡̐ ̴c̴h̴e̶c̴k̷e̶d̸ ̶i̴n̴)

Good morning, esteemed guests. Did you sleep well? We hope you found your accommodations suitable. It did take some time to get your rooms ready, after all.

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.

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 00. 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.

…speaking of…you may find yourself learning more about some people than others. For the duration of this week, you will find yourself with a connection to your suitemate that cannot be severed. You will be able to feel certain pains and emotions that they feel throughout the week. Nothing brutal, mostly those pesky, annoying feelings you don’t want to share with people. Are you feeling a little embarrassed someone complimented you? Your partner will feel this embarrassment. Got a nasty little papercut from misbehaving? Your partner will feel that, too. And if you don't have a suitemate? Don't worry. You'll find yourself attached to the suitemates right next door to you. Try not to drive each other too insane, hm?

Oh, and we would like to mention…housekeeping came by and has provided everyone with one (1) travel-sized toothbrush and toothpaste. Clean your mouths, stinky guests.

I (???M) learned my own seemingly inevitable future and dislike the person I will become. AMA.

[my excuse for being delayed by work is this happened and he walked away from the typewriter for a bit,]

[mustbepurged]

Is there really no way to change the future?

[ktiseos]

I have been assured that there is not but we shall see about that.

[mustbepurged]

Good luck!

If all else fails, maybe you can just... learn to like the person you become?

[ktiseos]

I very much doubt I shall.

But then I doubt he has such difficulties.

[evocationary]

he really isn't so bad

[ktiseos]

I disagree.

[evocationary]

well
you don't know him
i do

[ktiseos]

I know enough about him.

[evocationary]

[she doesn't answer but she's making a grouchy face in her room]

[ashenvaliant]

…. and how’s that going for you?

[ktiseos]

If the future is known then there should be some method of preventing it.

[ashenvaliant]

tell that to the people living in it.

[ktiseos]

Then what of the people who shall die in it.

[ashenvaliant]

isn’t meddling with the future meant to be a big no? like… cutting off branches and just erasing entire existences?

[ktiseos]

Another's past is still my present. I am no student of time, but I should think this is somewhat subjective.

[ashenvaliant]

that goes both ways. your future is someone else’s present. that’s a lot of erasing if things get changed to an extreme.

[unbested]

is it the statue??

[ktiseos]

Do not be ridiculous.

[yes,]

[sageguidance]

[ ... well then! ]

Mayhap we cannot always change what happens around us, but we can at least decide who we want to be.

[ktiseos]

Ideally, mayhap, but much depends upon the situation.

[sageguidance]

I presume this means you are not aware of what it may be?

[ktiseos]

I am well aware of the situation, which is precisely why I doubt that shall be the case.

[sageguidance]

I do not think it impossible, in spite of how difficult it may be.

[ktiseos]

You are quite the optimist, are you not.
