week 1

[vicedirector]

seven vices week 1 ♫ monday - thursday Monday morning begins just like the rest, slow and uneasy. At 12pm, every television will go off with its usual bout of static, followed by a calm, albeit disinterested, voice. "Please gather in the hotel lobby within the next hour." That's all that it says before the televisions turn off. Anyone not in their rooms will hear the voice echoing around them as if through a speaker system, although there are (still) no speakers present. Curiously, anyone who has spoken with Miata for any period of time during the past week will notice that the voice coming from the television and her own do not match up. Come Tuesday, the footsteps around the void will begin drifting away from it. The pitter-patter of feet can be heard when standing outside the clinic and chapel as well. On top of the food that was added to the kitchen last week, spaghetti noodles and tomato sauce is now available. You're welcome, Papyrus. >Mingle?

i dunno. you might be surprised what messin' with time can do to people.

[coming from a skeleton, that might sound slightly ominous...]

it can drive 'em cuckoo.

[and then he winks and follows it up with a clock joke. did he mean it. was it just a set-up. ~mystery~]

[minogame]

Hmm.... no. ( Shaking his head, ) I haven't really learned anything new.

[fourleafcleaver]

I... [ppppause] ...gueeess?

[she wants to come up with an excuse but can't. this probably isn't going to stop her though. the excited determination hasn't left her expression.]

[fourleafcleaver]

Aaaww, but I'm sooooo curious. That's dumb.

[fourleafcleaver]

Hehe, you know it! I'm untouchable!

thursday

[symbologic]

It's a shame there's not more snow for you to work with. [You totally wanted abrupt and unannounced company, right, Hanyuu? Of course you did. Have one (1) alien in a sweater vest examining your snowy handiwork] Perhaps if he had a companion he would be more..."holly jolly".

[dhaosu]

... Hm.

[ It's true it did say that. It was something he hadn't quite thought about, assuming it would be new every week. ]

You are correct. In that case, this one isn't quite too bothersome. It is doubtless that they will have a more brutal motive when they issue a new one, and if they so wish, it is possible for them to keep just the same one if they believe it to be effective.

[minogame]

No way! You don't hit girls!

[fourleafcleaver]

A spoon? Really? That's the best you've got?

[fourleafcleaver]

What? So you think I can't take a hit because I'm a girl?!

[smileleftbehind]

What did you do last week? [Maybe he should strive to get this protection for himself.]

[fourleafcleaver]

You sure sounded jealous earlier! I think you're mad because you aren't the favorite.

[hopefragment]

Hah, yeah.

[He just gives her a weak smile and moves as if to back off to go somewhere else. He has shit to think about now.]

[fourleafcleaver]

[SHRUG] Miata couldn't tell me why exactly I got it. I'm just that good, I guess.

[girl you got lucky, chill out]

[dereban]

... Did you really have to go there?

[fluorospar]

You have the strangest sense of humor.

Nonetheless, I do believe there will always be something to worry about. [Somehow...] We must just be aware.

[fluorospar]

[..... well okay.]

But I believe it to be... psychological. Judging from those clocks.

[party pooper.]

[dhaosu]

[ And yet... this one said so with a straight face. He has a hard time imagining him getting along with Vegeta, but what does he know? ]

Even with someone volatile and highly dangerous?

[dhaosu]

Why should I try harder than that?

[fluorospar]

I...see.

[Not quite what she was going for, but nonetheless good to know??]

I intend to attempt to protect as many people as I can, to be certain it doesn't come to that, but... there is admittedly no guarantee.

tuesday!

[hopefragment]

[This nerd who was on a tropical island until recently is definitely too cold all the time to end up in the pool... but he's bored out of his mind and looks exhausted already. Wandering around to see who's available to chat with doesn't seem like a bad idea.]

O-oh, hey.

[Someone he hasn't talked to before! Perfect.]

It's, uh... Jeda, right?

[She had quite the assortment of names on her profile, he wasn't sure which one to use. The last one that's not in parenthesis seems safest?]

Mind some company?

[minogame]

No? ( Maybe? ) You're just not supposed to hit a girl! It's not honorable!

[fluorospar]

[someone check grandpa into the old peoples' home.]

I had thought the threats of murder had cleared that up already.

[aumygoddess]

[ She jolts a little at the unexpected guest, but dusts the snow off of her skirt and stands to look at him. ]

Have you made snowmen before?

[fourleafcleaver]

Honestly, I'm not really sure you can do any better than that.
