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. Mod comments will be occasionally distributed to open toplevels, accordingly. cast setting rulebook profiles private conversations

[Don't worry Faize. Alisha is absolutely okay with this. She thinks? That's what a curtsying ring means right.]

Wait. Do they not have marriage in space?

[symbologic]

[Maybe??? If the ring gets knocked out of his hand by supernatural forces then we'll know for sure.]

I cannot speak for all of space, but Eldar does. The process is not not as simple as giving someone a ring. That is all.

[sobowtor]

Welp I guess Earth is different then because we're married.

[Assuming you're not marrying a body of water, the process is actually not this simple.

But.

What does Faize need to know that for?]

[symbologic]

[When will you all stop taking advantage of the fact that he doesn't know how things work on Earth?!?!]

I...see. [Maybe he should double check with Hinata.] Well, I'm flattered but...don't I get a say in this?

[sobowtor]

[Literally never.]

Of course!

You get to say yes.

[symbologic]

[You're all so fucking rude and you're going to miss him when he's dead!]

I meant a choice, Poland. As in yes or no?

[Don't you start with these semantics!!!]

[sobowtor]

Ah... well.

[Look at this face.

Faize.

Are you going to say no to this face.]

1/2

[symbologic]

......

[He's looking at that face. He's really looking at it.]

2/2

[symbologic]

[Defeated sigh!]

[No, he really can't say no to that face.]

Before I have my inevitable say, can I at least ask: why me?

1/2

[sobowtor]

[Ha ha








sucker.]

2/2

[sobowtor]

I asked everybody! It's my pledge to you all that I'll save you from this place no matter what it takes.

[symbologic]

[Poland, you would have saved yourself a whole lot of trouble if you'd just opened with that. He would have just said yes from the beginning! This whole time he thought you meant an actual, monogamous marriage!! Not a spiritual, polyamorous one.]

...the dead, as well?

[sobowtor]

I married them first.

[symbologic]

[Faize looks relieved.]

Good. [SAVE THE GHOSTS, ESPECIALLY ALISHA'S, 2K16]

Then, in that case... [He slips the ring onto his right middle finger because what do you mean it's supposed to go on a specific finger?] I accept, and pledge the same to you, in kind.

[sobowtor]

[You may kiss the bri-- no okay.]

You make for a good husband Faize.

I'm sure Hinata's totally jealous I snagged you before he could marry you.

[symbologic]

[Sorry, Poland. He only has lips for one blonde in Lebensbaum, and it's not you.]

[Faize chokes slightly. Under different circumstances, that might have been a laugh.]

I'm almost certain you won't have to worry about that. Not in my case, at least. Roxy may be a different story, however.

[sobowtor]

[She also only has lips for one emotionally oblivious nerd and it's not you Faize.]

I guess it's good you'll all get to share me at least.

[Poland has lofty marriage goals.]
