week 6

[vicedirector]

seven vices week 6 24 players remaining ♫ monday - sunday 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 that...announcement, characters who choose to explore will find that the void around the town has retracted a bit, and there is now a record store next to the clothing store. On the chapel wall near the altar, black and white portraits of Cheshire and Lucyhave been hung up. Anyone looking for it will find that Lucy's machete is now gone. >Mingle? This is Week 6's mingle log, covering Monday to Sunday. As this is a breather week, there will be no investigation or trial. 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. cast setting rulebook profiles private conversations

[dhaosu]

Ah...I understand.

[ There's a small pause and when she crosses out the 'demon' portion he can't help but crack a small smile. He hadn't thought saying anything would help, but it looks like it did. He will commit it to memory. ]

Thank you for the compliment, then --and this. I know we cannot afford to lose to her and her compatriots.

[sobowtor]

[You gotta talk about your feelings!]

Yeah!

But like. Maybe cut Miata. Like. A little slack. [Poland uses her fingers to illustrate the little bit.] Little bit. For me.

[Dhaos has one of those serious faces that doesn't need a lot of contempt to be super intimidating to pretty much anyone.]

[dhaosu]

[ Dhaos is unused to talking about his feelings... how do you do it. ]

...

Very well. A little-- [ He just copies the motion Poland did and feels a bit silly for it. But he just thinks it's also a good way to indicate he's serious???

And yes he does. ] -- slack.

1/2

[sobowtor]

[Usually with copious amounts of food in her mouth.]

Thank you.

[Poland tries to give a cheek peck as thanks but... Dhaos is so very up there. And she is so very down here....

Hmm. This is. Um. Wait.]

[sobowtor]

[Poland's just going to heft herself up on to a display of records. Take a moment to re-calibrate for balance and stability.

Then peck him on the cheek.]

[dhaosu]

[ At her first attempt, Dhaos can only stare in wonder, before she goes to do her thing. What are you doing fri-- ]

2/2

[dhaosu]

[ --oh.

His face just begins to turn entirely pink, hand going up to touch where she kissed him. ]

I-Is this how you truly thank someone...?!

[sobowtor]

Of course!

How else are you supposed to thank people?

[dhaosu]

W-who else have you thanked like this whilst you were here...?

[ Enjoy him being flustered. Surely, this is Improper. ]

[sobowtor]

...

Why are you jealous and gonna beat them up?

[Poland pops out her lip gloss for a second then pecks him on the other cheek.]

There. Now you are in the lead.

[dhaosu]

Nnn--?!

You mustn't--

[ Quickly he backs away. ]

This is not--! Refrain from doing anymore of such things in the future.

[sobowtor]

[Poland bursts out laughing and hops down off the records, skipping past the kidneys and to the door.]

No promises. [She won't call him a demon anymore, but she will not relent on affections.]

Don't forget to drop your kidneys off at the coffins!

[Bye Dhaos~]

[dhaosu]

Just to clear it up, I would have hardly any reason to be jealous over any such thing.

[ He tries to get that in before she leaves. ]

And, do not do this again. Surely, even you realize that was unnecessary...

[ She's already gone isn't she. He 'tsks' and slides a hand down his face. Then he looks over at the kidneys, glaring at them as if it were their fault for all of this.

He's not touching the kidneys-- once is already enough. He will get some other poor, unfortunate soul to do so, however. ]
