seven vices arrival





saturday & sunday

36 players remaining

You remember happening upon something awful and nauseating. What it was, precisely, is lost to you, but you have the instinctive feeling that by escaping from it, you've avoided something terrible.

When you open your eyes, you find yourself laying in bed in a dark, dusty room, facing a digital alarm clock. Its face, reading 12:01, is one of the only sources of light in the room. The other comes from the window, shadows flickering about. Opening the blinds will reveal that it is nighttime, and what looks to be a massive bonfire has been lit in the street at the front of the building.

A wooden talisman hangs around your neck, with one of seven symbols carved on the back. Attempting to take off the talisman will result in a wave of intense dread, and the all-too-familiar nausea. A brass key engraved with a unique room number lays on the bedside table beside the clock, as well.

But you won't get any answers just sitting in your room all night.


>Investigate?


This is an open mingle for arrival in the town. Waking up just after midnight on Saturday, characters will have the weekend to explore and socialize before the plot begins. The profiles and IC rulebooks (both the personal ones and the public one at the chapel) have not been revealed/given out yet. The kitchen will still 'prepare' breakfast on these days, and the bonfire will burn continuously into the daytime.

Per items: smaller items that a character could easily carry with them will be in their rooms. Animals and larger objects will either be waiting outside or in the hotel lobby.

[WHAT'S A MANNER CAN YOU FIGHT IT

Clover doesn't come closer, though; she's still sort of reeling over the thing that just happened.
]

Omigod, those ears are real. [Dude!!! DUDE!!!!!] You're a cat. [DUDE!!!!!!!!!!!!] God, I thought you were, like, some kind of weird furry!

[ Youko makes an amused noise. She can respect this honesty, and the short woman it comes from. ]

Well, we all have our standards and limits... and yours certainly sound interesting.

[ Not necessarily in a bad way, mind. ]

Hm. At any rate, I go by Youko. And yourself?
clearasmud: (ummmmmm)

[personal profile] clearasmud 2016-02-15 06:46 pm (UTC)(link)
[ ...WELL THAT'S AWKWARD. She did manage to catch one thing, though! Sort of... ]

I just came to get a closer look. I want to explore this place in full, and I've never been to one of these back home besides.
clearasmud: (huh)

[personal profile] clearasmud 2016-02-15 06:52 pm (UTC)(link)
And the same to you.

[ She does inside poke her head inside and give the room a quick once-over before stepping in! This could still be one big trap, right? As much as she didn't want it to be...

But the room looks safe, so once the door is closed she unties her shawl, fox ears springing forth. Keenly, Youko waits for Ranulf to do the same. ]

HUMAN..... WANTING TO DEEPEN THE BOND OF OUR FRIENDSHIP BY EXCHANGING NAMES.....

[Oh!! That human is so excited she's screaming!!]

Sisuca? [A WEIRD NAME but he nods once. He'll try to remember it... Gotta find the lady if his head starts spinning or he grows an extra shadow limb or morphs into Exodia or something.

But then she's moving her hands to cover her ears and the motion draws more attention to it than anything else so far.]


Oh— [She seems discomforted?! THAT'S NO GOOD.] It's fine! There's a dragon here, so...

[Is that supposed to make her feel better...]

If that's what you think, perhaps you should think again. I don't get smitten easily.

[ She is Hard Mode for a reason, after all. ]

And I'm Nagase. Nagase Iori. It's not really that cool though, to be honest.

[SCREAMING CONTINUES AND INTENSIFIES AS SHE TRIES TO SMACK HIS HANDS AWAY AND BACK THE HELL UP]

Don't touch me!

[proper ways to deal with situations: at top volume]
friendboned: (he's nervous but on the)

[personal profile] friendboned 2016-02-25 02:59 am (UTC)(link)
NONSENSE! MY COOL HUMAN FRIEND.... HAS A VERY COOL NAME! AND YOUR STANDARDS MUST BE AS HIGH AS MINE!

[there's no escape from friendship]

WOWIE! WHAT SHOULD WE DO? A PUZZLE? A FIGHT? I DON'T HAVE ANY DEADLY SPIKES...
friendboned: (He's choking how?)

[personal profile] friendboned 2016-02-25 04:13 am (UTC)(link)
[you know, if it weren't for the fact that Roxy, HIS COOL NEW HUMAN FRIEND, offered to help, Papyrus would throw up his hands at Sans's laziness.]

[Which he might do anyway.]

[THE POINT IS, GOOD JOB, ROXY]


GOOD IDEA, HUMAN!! YOU CAN HELP ME MAKE IT... AND THEN I'LL TEST IT ON YOU! NYEH HEH HEH HEH! A HUMAN IS THE PERFECT SECOND OPINION TO MAKE SURE THE TRAPS ARE DEADLY ENOUGH!
friendboned: (mom's spaghetti)

[personal profile] friendboned 2016-02-25 04:15 am (UTC)(link)
[SANS.... WHY???]

[STOP RUINING HIS AMAZING FIRST IMPRESSIONS?]


YES.... AND YOU'RE A HUMAN!! AND MY BROTHER MAKES TERRIBLE PUNS!

BUT IGNORE HIM! WE HAVE AN IMPORTANT MOONING ON SCHEDULE!
friendboned: (What he wrote down)

[personal profile] friendboned 2016-02-25 04:17 am (UTC)(link)
[well, okay, no hugs???? She successfully smacks his hands, and he draws back to give her a bit of space]]

[even if she is excited]


OH? ARE YOU AFRAID? I AM QUITE IMPOSING.... BUT DON'T WORRY, HUMAN, THESE AMAZING BICEPS ARE ONLY FOR HUGGING.

AND POSING.


[what biceps he's a skeleton]
friendboned: (He's choking how?)

[personal profile] friendboned 2016-02-25 04:19 am (UTC)(link)
[His new friend was also kidnapped?]

[GASP!!!]


DOES THAT MEAN... YOU WANT TO BE FRIENDS WITH ME SO BADLY YOU GOT KIDNAPPED WITH ME?

I MUST ALREADY BE FAMOUS!
fourleafcleaver: (i'm asking pretty please)

[personal profile] fourleafcleaver 2016-02-25 04:20 am (UTC)(link)
DON'T HUG ME WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU?!

[SCRAMBLING CONTINUES, and when she screams again she's definitely still screaming but she's, like. Mildly less loud about it.]

You're a skeleton! [SO WHAT IS THIS BICEPS NONSENSE, AMONG OTHER PROBLEMS AT HAND]
friendboned: (surface he looks calm spaghetti)

[personal profile] friendboned 2016-02-25 04:23 am (UTC)(link)
HUGGING IS A SIGN OF FRIENDSHIP! IS THIS NOT THE HUMAN CUSTOM? MAYBE I SHOULD SKIP RIGHT TO THE DEADLY TRAPS....

[humans sure are weird, gosh]

YES... I AM A SKELETON. AND YOU ARE A HUMAN WHO KIDNAPPED ME. BUT THAT DOESN'T MEAN WE CAN'T BE FRIENDS!
friendboned: (mom's spaghetti)

[personal profile] friendboned 2016-02-25 04:26 am (UTC)(link)
[Woah, why is this human interested in his butt??? HE LOOKS ANNOYED AT THE PUN, but that's just weird]

THIS HUMAN.... ONLY WANTS ME FOR MY BODY....

I SUPPOSE IT IS A VERY IMPRESSIVE BODY, BUT MY BICEPS ARE MUCH MORE IMPRESSIVE THAN MY BUTT.


[what a perverted human]
fourleafcleaver: (eyes bigger than your belly tonight)

[personal profile] fourleafcleaver 2016-02-25 04:26 am (UTC)(link)
[okay nope there might have been something she could've had a reasonable conversation about there but now we're right back to maximum screaming]

KEEP YOUR TRAPS THE HELL AWAY FROM ME! [WHICH WAY IS THE MOST CONVENIENT WAY OUT OF HERE BECAUSE SHE'S GONNA PICK A DIRECTION TO SKITTER TOWARDS AND HOPE IT'S THAT ONE]
friendboned: (spaghetti won't come out)

[personal profile] friendboned 2016-02-25 04:28 am (UTC)(link)
[There is no malevolence. He only seems to be emitting.... total weirdness.]

[But he's clasping her hands earnestly?!]


I UNDERSTAND, HUMAN. THERE IS NO NEED TO BE ASHAMED..... YOUR DEEP NEED TO BE WITH ME CAUSED YOU TO DRAG ME ABOVE GROUND!

THERE'S NO NEED TO BE EMBARRASSED. AFTER ALL, LOTS OF PEOPLE WOULD LOVE TO KIDNAP ME AND FORCE ME TO BE FRIENDS WITH THEM. I AM VERY POPULAR.


[DEFINITELY.]
friendboned: (Everybody's joking now)

[personal profile] friendboned 2016-02-25 04:32 am (UTC)(link)
[but CLOVER............. he just wants to love you. Let this skeleton into your life]

[Going to follow her]


BUT I THOUGHT HUMANS LOVED DEADLY TRAPS? YOU ARE A VERY PECULIAR HUMAN.... I SUPPOSE WE CAN START WITH JUNIOR JUMBLE.

[they could in fact be brothers from another mother....]

I COULD NOT DO THAT. UNDYNE WOULDN'T HAVE ANYTHING TO POSE AGAINST!!!

I JUST WANTED YOU TO MEET THE MOON. TOGETHER. WITH ME....
friendboned: (oh there goes spaghetti)

[personal profile] friendboned 2016-02-25 04:34 am (UTC)(link)
[WHY.]

WHY DID YOU HAVE TO BE KIDNAPPED WITH ME!!! YOU RUIN EVERYTHING!!!
fourleafcleaver: (get your teeth round this open wide)

[personal profile] fourleafcleaver 2016-02-25 04:35 am (UTC)(link)
What part of get away from me did you not hear?! [She has to pause, a little breathless from all the fucking yelling and the running, that too—it's following her but it isn't, like, chasing her??? Her heart rate is...well it's less explosive at least. It's the little things.]

Did you ask if I kidnapped you?
princessantly: (The fiercest princess)

[personal profile] princessantly 2016-02-25 04:37 am (UTC)(link)
... That... truly shouldn't be how friendship works.

[ TO SAY THE LEAST. ]
friendboned: (Everybody's joking now)

[personal profile] friendboned 2016-02-25 04:40 am (UTC)(link)
[Why berate yourself like this, Alisha?? Papyrus accepts you for the creepy kidnapper that you are.]

IT IS VERY WEIRD AND CREEPY..... BUT I WILL NOT JUDGE YOU FOR KIDNAPPING ME, HUMAN.

AFTER ALL, I AM IRRESISTIBLE. I CAN'T FULLY BLAME YOU.
