week 4

[vicedirector]

seven vices week 4 28 players remaining ♫ 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. After hearing the motive, characters who choose to explore will find that the void around the town has retracted a bit, and there is now a police station to the far east of the chapel. On the chapel wall near the altar, black and white portraits of Youko, Zelos, and Morrigan have been hung up. Anyone looking for them will find that Youko's pink shoes and the fragments of Zelos's crystal are now gone. >Mingle? This is Week 4's mingle log, covering Monday/Tuesday/Wednesday/Thursday. Investigations will go up on Friday. When posting toplevels, specify the time and location. If you plan on having any private conversations between characters, remember to let us know in the post linked below. More plot elements will be introduced this week. Mod comments will be occasionally distributed to open toplevels, accordingly. cast setting rulebook profiles private conversations

[Look, he's kind of pathetic, it's hard not to pity him.]

... I see.

Perhaps the correct question should have been "Are you going to be all right?"

[jackhole]

[ you're not wrong. he glances back at the monitor for a moment before sighing and nodding. ]

Probably, I'd say. That's sort of how this works, right? Feel terrible for a whole week and wonder if you're going to kill or be killed Thursday night. Kind of routine now.

[fluorospar]

[He's... he's not wrong.]

True enough. Just... [...] You seem to have taken this harder even than most. Be cautious, and take care of yourself and your health.

[jackhole]

[ have a very baffled look, selena ]

You do remember that you don't like me, right?

[fluorospar]

[Look, she's not going to... deny that, but--]

You are doing the best you can, in a situation that no person should ever be in. That much should be respected, and in that sense you are no different from the rest of us.

That is what I believe.

[jackhole]

[ oh... wow. those are such kind words, selena!! he's actually going a little red in the face and ducks his head, embarrassed. this is a guy not used to fairly positive responses, probably. ]

H-Hah, some people here would argue that but. Uhm. Thanks. I... appreciate it?

[fluorospar]

No, do not thank me.

[She's not being kind, this is just how she is!!]

I am simply saying... there is no reason to continue beating down someone who is already low. That would be cruel.

So.. continue to do the best you can.

[jackhole]

[ but??? he still seems really confused because she's denying being nice but also this seems really nice to him. maybe their standards are just different?!

he just. opens his mouth before closing it. runs his fingers through his hair and uh. ]

Okay.

[ ???????????? HONESTLY ]
