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.

Why did you not let her know you were alive then? Or alive again?

[ercnerd]

Shall we say . . . time?

[wisterin]

Did it take you a long time to come back to life? Or was it something else?

[ercnerd]

I have no excuse. I spent too much time away, and our lives took different paths.

[wisterin]

You didn't love her enough.

[ercnerd]

Guess not.

[wisterin]

You agreed so easily. Is that alright? Are you alright?

[ercnerd]

Can I dispute it? I made a choice. It's not about whether that's all right, but about living with the aftermath.

[wisterin]

You can. Sometimes, you choose to leave behind the people you love even if it hurts.

You should strive for both.

[ercnerd]

I don't age. Leaving everyone behind is natural for me.

[wisterin]

I don't see how that negates what I said.

You should also strive to be all right.

[ercnerd]

I'm saying that I'm used to it, so I'm all right.

[wisterin]

Being used to something isn't always the same as being all right.

[ercnerd]

That's true, but I'm as good as I can be.

[wisterin]

How good is that?

[ercnerd]

Good is good! Better than all right, if you ask me.
