WEEK 1 MINGLE - KALMIA

[foundationmods]

All of the guests awoke in their rooms, just like they had before.

Yesterday had been a day of surprises.
First, they'd finally met the person who had brought them here - the Witch of Dimensions, Yuuko.
Secondly, they'd learned they were going to be playing a horrible game.
And most important, they learned that wishes could be granted if they won this game.🗈

Still, for now, it seemed like there wasn't much to do. Was the Witch already in talks with the 'Murderer'? Was the 'victim' already decided upon?

There was no way to know until some day later this week, apparently.

Still, it wasn't all bad. The island was beautiful and the climate just perfect for beachgoing, or taking a cosy walk in the garden. There were also board and card games which would be produced upon request - and the tv in the Sitting Room - to help ease the boredom of it all.

Though, perhaps the guests would prefer to get to know each other instead? On maybe get into some trouble as they roamed the island.

Despite being told someone will die, it...felt remarkably peaceful. Could one of their own really be able to kill someone?

...Or, maybe...this is just the silence that comes just before a massive storm breaks, and sweeps away everything...

[ S'up. Here is a Junior Hero to save the day. ]

Hey, what's going on?

[goldenmaniac]

[Oh thank god. Takumi waves Sora over... which shows off the blisters forming on his arm.

And once he's close just kinda slumps against him]

Ngh... that was dumb.

[keydomhearts]

Whoa! What happened to you?

[ He'll wrap an arm around his back to support him. Let's head back to the mansion. ]

[goldenmaniac]

The trees with marks on them are poisonous, I think.

[he's a little dizzy on wobbly, but at least not dead weight]

[keydomhearts]

Wait. For real? [ What the hell kinds of trees are you growing here, witches ] Come on, I think there was a doctor.

[goldenmaniac]

The guy with the really intense eyes, right?

[into the mansion they go- at least Takumi didn't wander too far out]

[keydomhearts]

Was he asking you a bunch of questions, too?

[ SCP Doctors, man. And whoo. Doot de doo time to find a doctor. ]

Hey! Where is everyone?! We need some help!

[goldenmaniac]

No, but I saw him at Yuuko-san's introduction.

[cryosurgeon]

[Erhard hears the commotion echoing through the mansion, but he expects enough furor from some members of this group to not pay much attention to the first half of the shout. Only when the word "help" registers in his brain does he hurry toward Sora's voice. What have these people gotten themselves into already?

By the time he locates the pair, he's somewhat out of breath. Running's not really one of his strong points.]

What... what happened?

[keydomhearts]

[ There he is. ]

He touched a tree that was poisonous! It looks pretty bad.

[ Where do you want him, doc? ]

[cryosurgeon]

[Erhard glances at Takumi's hands, his lips pinching together unhappily.]

Damn, it looks like a chemical burn. Take him to the bathroom, he needs to wash thoroughly with soap and water. I'm going to find a first-aid kit.

[goldenmaniac]

[Takumi nods, still a little loopy but managing to keep his head]

Thank you.

[He goes wherever Sora leads, trusting his new comrades]

[keydomhearts]

[ He's just going to lead him into the first bedroom that's unlocked. Pardon the intrusion!

Heading to bathroom to help him wash it. ]

Just your hand?

[goldenmaniac]

Up my arm a bit too.

[he pulls his glove off with a whimper]

[keydomhearts]

[ :< He'll let him get the glove, while he rolls his sleeve up to his shoulder. Let's use a wash cloth lathered up real good to wash this. ]

Just bear with it a little longer, okay? I'm almost done.

[goldenmaniac]

[Takumi bites his lip hard enough it turns white... but all it does is muffle his pained cries.

By the time Sora is done the corners of Takumi's eyes are damp]

1/2

[keydomhearts]

[ :< :< :< ]

[keydomhearts]

And done! You did great, Takumi!

[ He'll move to his other side to return his arm across his back. ]

Let's get back to the doc, okay?

[ Just a little more. He's giving a smile to try to reassure him. It's okay, we got this. ]

[goldenmaniac]

[he nods, offering a tired but earnest smile.]

Fingers crossed he doesn't have to amputate it.

[keydomhearts]

[ Helping him out out of there and towards the sitting room. That'll be a better place, right? ]

If he does, maybe some one here knows how to make you a new arm?

[ He's not actually serious...mostly. Just CONSIDER the possibilities, Takumi ]

[goldenmaniac]

A chainsaw, so I can get my revenge on trees.

[keydomhearts]

I did see one of those laying around.

[cryosurgeon]

[Erhard manages to convince one of the goat butlers to bring him a first-aid kit, which is decently stocked. With the threat of murder hanging over their heads, he honestly expected the request to be denied. He's looking through the supplies when he hears the boys approaching, including the remark about amputation. If he had a sense of humor, he'd chuckle at the exchange. But he doesn't, so he... doesn't.]

Let me see your hands. If your clothes or jewelry came into contact with the tree, don't wear them again until they're clean.

[He takes some soft gauze cling and medical tape out of the kit and starts loosely wrapping the burned parts of Takumi's hands and wrists.]

If you feel any increase in burning, undo the dressing and flush your skin with cool running water for ten to twenty minutes. We'll re-dress as necessary. Some antibiotic cream will help with infection risk, but we want to make sure all the toxin is flushed out of your skin before we trap it there with topicals.

[goldenmaniac]

[He nods along. Only one hand is blistered, but the other is also irritated.]

Yes sir. I think only my glove touched it but... I'll wash everything just to be safe.

[cryosurgeon]

Good. Do you remember which tree caused this? We need to make sure everyone avoids it, there's no telling how toxic it might be if just touching it did this. They gave me the first-aid kit, but I don't think the witch will give us anything to cure poisoning.

[His expression darkens. Damn her for sealing the power he was just learning to use and appreciate.]

Not with this "game" of hers.
