week 8

[vicedirector]

seven vices week 8 21 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 Katerina's 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 boathouse and lake up North Anyone looking for them will also find that Alisha's spear and Sadie's earmuffs are now gone. >Mingle? This is Week 8'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.

all week - let's go with wednesday

[unpleasantries]

[Stares at the ring for a second before handing it back.]

I want a divorce.

[sobowtor]

[Poland's shoved her hands in her pockets. She's not taking it back it's yours to do with as you wish my lovely bride.]

Have your lawyer call my lawyer.

[unpleasantries]

[In that case she's just gonna. Give it to her recently obtained pet cheetah, which tries and fails to eat it.]

I don't think needing a lawyer is the problem here.

[sobowtor]

Divorces are mutual and I don't want one!

You're gonna have to negotiate with me to get me to sign all the appropriate paperwork. You know. Give me a good portion of all your properties and assets-- you didn't have a prenup so I'm entitled to everything.

[Poland leans down to give her cheetah a friendly wave.] Hey kitty kitty~ How would you like to vacation 50% of the year in Poland?

[unpleasantries]

[The cheetah doesn't seem to mind one way or the other. It's pretty friendly, as far as carnivorous jungle beasts go.]

Unless you're willing to become an urban legend and disappear, you can't get through the barrier to where I live to claim my things in the first place.

[She pauses, then frowns.]

...Well, I suppose technically you could stumble through it yourself, but you'd most likely be eaten on the way to my home, since it's underground.

[i cant believe shes making a serious argument out of this. satori "petty" komeiji]

[sobowtor]

You say that like I haven't disappeared twice from history already? [Poland's got this.]

That's fine. I can just claim control over your home and delegate my whims from mine!

[unpleasantries]

If you intend to take my territory, we'll have to duel for it...though, I suppose all things considered, death could do us part before it gets to that. I've already decided Orin will be the new Mistress, however, so you'll have to take that up with her if I'm the one who dies.

[sobowtor]

Or.

You could just stay alive and married to me and I'll agree to not mess with your half of the room.

[Poland gives Satori a wink.]

You can even keep your Mistress on the side.

[unpleasantries]

Orin is a cat.

[SATORI IS SO TIRED.]

1/2

[sobowtor]

Oh.

[sobowtor]

Well I won't judge!

[Okay. No. Shes judging. A lil bit.]

[unpleasantries]

...I think you're misunderstanding something.

[A cat is not fine too, Poland!!!!!]

[sobowtor]

You're into cats, I get it!

[Poland's eyeing the cheetah a little differently now.]

You... don't have to explain. I promise.

[unpleasantries]

I do have to explain, because you're not understanding.

[She's not a furry please believe her]

Orin is a housecat. She works for me. "Mistress" is the title given to the person in charge of the estate we live in.

[sobowtor]

Your cat works for you?

...

Oh so you live in that sort of "estate." Got it.

[Satori must be the Madam of some cat prostitution ring.]
