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.

[A million times better than rice, and it gets a delighted little giggle and a cheer out of Clover, too. THEY'RE MARRIED NOW THAT'S JUST HOW IT IS.]

You've been marrying people all day? How many brides am I more dazzling than? I need to know.

[sobowtor]

I think like... [The ghosts were a little hard to tell. Uh... carry the one.. uh...]

It doesn't matter because by the end of the week I will have married everyone so you'll still be the most dazzling!

[Make it rain.]

[fourleafcleaver]

Hehe. More dazzling than everyone here, huh? [PRIORITIES—wait]

Does that mean I'm married to everyone, too? Because if I've gotta be married to Rhys we're gonna have an issue that pink confetti can't even fix.

[sobowtor]

No only I have to bear the terrible burden of marrying Rhys. [Don't cry for me Argentina.]

Thankfully, you're only married to me!

[fourleafcleaver]

Oh, man, I'm so sorry for you.

...So who'd you lose the bet to, then? [Because that's why she's marrying everyone ever probably???]

[sobowtor]

I'll solider on. Worst comes to worst, we split and I end up with 50% of his assets and child support for Dumpy.

[Poland flaps her wrist.]

No one, actually. This was my decision!

[fourleafcleaver]

...

Okay, I'll bite. Why are you proposing marriage to everyone?

[sobowtor]

Because if we're married then I'm obligated to make sure I can keep you all safe no matter how hard it gets or how long it takes.

I mean. I guess I'd do it anyways.

But a ring is a nice symbolic thing!

[fourleafcleaver]

[...she's not sure how seriously to take this?? it is Poland.]

Um. The marriage part's probably not necessary? You could just, like, say so.

...But it is a nice ring.

[sobowtor]

Yeah but I want to show not tell.

[Besides outrageous excessive behaviors are Poland's sin!]

Right? I thought you'd like it.

[fourleafcleaver]

Well, I do. [She's not wearing it on her ring finger, though, because she's not for real married. That's not how it works. Also her hands are super tiny, it probably only even fits on her thumb??]

Thanks. [For the ring. And the safety promise? And also for cheering her up a little? Just, in general. Poland's cool.]
