Week 5

With the Studio in shambles, it seems odd that the game would continue on. You would think that forces from site 4 would drop in and extract people, right? But no, not a peep is heard from them. The game continues on as it has for all the previous weeks, and there is no sign of it stopping.

The weather certainly matches the mood, though. By Monday morning, a light rain will start to fall, making the area damp and gloomy. People can go outside if they so wish, but they might want to don some raincoats and rain boots.

With power off at the studio, it is safe to assume that no cameras are on there. But what about the rest of the house? Will surveillance continue there? And what is everyone going to do about this balancing act of 'survive' and 'convince everyone you should be allowed to live'? How long will it be before everyone cracks from the pressure?

Do we really want to destroy the internet, though?

[ ISN'T TAKING OUT THE POWER ENOUGH

but also.

why.... matcha.............. ]

Not any time soon. Probably closer to the end of this game or if we need a distraction.

Can't we just destroy the power without destroying the internet, though?

[... ]

The internet needs power to work.

[ Also chill with your gacha game addiction ]

[ SHE DIDN'T WANT IT FOR THE GACHA GAMES............. ]

I'm not stupid. But you can get that power from an outside source that isn't the power box. Like a UPS, if we can somehow get one.

[ Uh huh ]

Unless the house has a generator hidden some where, then I think we're out of luck there.

[ Or if they have someone who can produce electricity. ]

Whatever the case, we shouldn't knock out power until we need to anyways.

[ look she knows when it's time to be serious ]

Well, the House has been getting shit from scenic nowhere, so I wouldn't be surprised if it could make one appear. I sure as hell didn't have my uniform in this world.

[ shrugs.... ]

But I guess it's not that vital. I just thought that maybe if the Site 4 guys aren't checking the internet when the power's down because they'd be too distracted that I could possibly get a message out.

[ especially now that she knows that the others are in captivity, she doesn't have to deal with Mikado or any of the other tech bullshitters that piss her off because they're from the future-slash-have abilities. ]

Nevertheless, I do agree that we shouldn't knock it out unless it's absolutely necessary.

Just because it can, doesn't me it will. It seems picky about what it gives us.

[ Unless it's food. Then it has all kinds of varying results. ]

It might be risky sending a message even with them distracted. There are agents all over watching us and anyone we may be connected to. Up to you if you want to risk it and them if any of this happens.

That's true.

[ she remembers the horse..... cake.....

she knows the chat is encrypted, but people have gotten into it before, so. ]

Probably not risk it this time. I'll be able to talk to them eventually.

Two or three more weeks. Sooner if they wind up storming this place.

Fingers crossed they don't.

They're goin' to repair it soon anyway?? The point is probably just a distraction or whatever.

[And it's going to be a pain either way, his expression says.]

Means we can move more easily an' maybe break out. We've got all those pieces.

I'm hoping we don't have to break out, though. . . there's no way in hell I'm becoming a fugitive to the Foundation.

[ she literally cannot. ]

But if you guys want to run at some point, fine. But I'm staying if that happens.

[...]

You're a real optimist, aren't you?? If we gotta run at this point, an' if everything they told us about some stupid trial or destroying 6350s or whatever is true, then there ain't going to be ANYWHERE for us to go in the Foundation if shit goes south.

That includes you.

But if you wanna stick your head in the sand be my guest.

I don't care.

I'm not abandoning them. If I have to run, I already know where, but I'm not going to abandon them.

I got no idea what you're talking about.

Well, too bad, because I'm not bothering to explain it to you.

Then don't fuckin' bring shit up just to be stupidly mysterious, it's a waste of meeting time!!

[For once he remembered he was in charge of a meeting and not a communal catfight. Dogfight. Whatever.]
