seven vices introduction ♫ monday At promptly 9AM Monday morning, every television in the hotel turns on. For a moment, static blares loud enough to wake anyone still sleeping, but it quickly fades out into a patternless gray image. After a few seconds of silence, a woman begins speaking. "Good morning. Thank you for waiting so patiently the past two days." Her voice is soft and easy on the ears, albeit a little flat and monotone. "If you would please gather in the chapel within the next half hour, we will be happy to provide you with answers pertaining to the current situation." Anyone not in their rooms will hear the voice echoing throughout the town as if via speaker system, though there are no actual speakers visible. Those who purposefully dawdle and delay going to the chapel will be subjected to their alarm clocks going off until they get up and leave. Upon entering the chapel, everyone will find that candles have been lit, and a small table with various pastries, simple sandwiches, and juices has been set up in front of the altar. More importantly, though, are the 36 booklets placed on the pews. Curiously, they contain photos and profiles of everyone in the town--some with startling details. There are also a few blank pages near the end. After the last person enters, the doors lock. The chapel is tiny, and very much cramped with 36 people inside, though the pews are still numerous enough to accommodate everyone--just barely. But you may as well get comfy, because it won't be another half-hour until someone shows up. >Mingle? This is another open mingle for the beginning of the plot. NPC interaction will come later in the day. setting profiles

[Obviously he needs to change his name. Kidding, kidding. Sitting up! Then he winces and falls back down.]

Oof-! You sure? Seems like a meeting for desperate singles ready to mingle to me. They even provided dossiers! Though--

[Grabbing his book he flips through it (from the floor...) and holds up Miata's profile.]

--I haven't seen this cutie before. Think her and I are just having a missed connection?

[brawlhalla]

This is a serious situation, not some - dating gathering!

[ SHE WILL HIT YOU AGAIN, ZELOS...maybe........ ]

[glorifiedtrash]

[BUT HE'S ALREADY DOWN he submits he submits!]

But I'm not a serious kind of guy. [OBVIOUSLY. Closing the book he sets it on his chest. Apparently he's just going to recline on the floor lazily.] It can't be that bad, right~? They've been feeding us. And they didn't even poison the ingredients. ...Well. Probably. It might just be slow acting and we're all going to die horrible deaths.

[He doesn't seem worried. That's probably something you shouldn't be so casual about.]

[brawlhalla]

Do you plan to be at all helpful, here?

[ A frustrated sigh, as she...nudges him with one foot. ]

Who are you, anyway?

[glorifiedtrash]

Maybe I'll consider it for a kiss ♪.

[No he wouldn't. But he does sit up at least.]

Isn't it all in the book? Everything you need to know. That seems to be the intent.

[Need to know for what though is the real question.]

[brawlhalla]

I only kiss people who do something deserving a kiss.

[ LIKE WHEN HICCUP DOES SOMETHING AWESOME? ]

If I want to look for your picture...what a pain.

[ Still, she does go back to flipping through it. ]

...What sort of job is "religious martyr"?
