ROUND 5 WATCHING POST

[foundationmods]

Everyone who was there in some shape or form for the meeting on March 1st gets a notice that soon, the location where they'll have to go to watch what happened in the Winchester Incident will be made available for them. Frisk requests a list of those going to see what happened, but doesn't seem to discourage high numbers.

And shortly before the 30th, those that signed up will finally get a name and place - The Hayes Mansion, only a little bit away by drive from the Winchester House. As they drive, the more magically inclined might be able to sense a powerful barrier emanating from the direction the Winchester House is located, though they'll be unable to see anything.

Arriving there, they'll find that any and all other guests have been removed from the Hotel resort, and there's a sign on the door saying that it is Closed for major renovation and fumigation, which would explain the outfits you were given to be 'seen' walking into the place with, as well as all the vans and 'containers' you were told to put your belongings into.

Once inside, a helpful staff member directs you to put the costumes into a specific bin for collection- unless, of course, you would like to keep wearing them - and then another directs you to the front desk, where a pleasant, yet authoritative man is waiting.

[ she glances at the paper again, more thoughtful this time ]

True. But we aren't being given many different options. If you'd rather not read them and leave it to us, I won't blame you, Silver.

[iblistriggered]

... Mmmm...... Well... he did just... leave it in here... [he peeks over someone's shoulder instead. His curiosity is TOO MUCH]

[prayerwheel]

[ he can look over hers! ]

So someone was evaluating most of the agents who were sent into the house.

[ scowling. she doesn't like where this is going. ]

[iblistriggered]

[he skims it quickly. HE FEELS LIKE THIS IS DANGEROUS... But something seems odd.]

... Wait. So that means he was there? When they were all camping around the house? I thought they went to the house to save Tages in the first place...?

[prayerwheel]

I don't think they were told it was Tages. Just "a missing agent."

[ absently tapping her finger on the page, over Dazai's name. ]

But I wonder how much of what they were told simply wasn't true at all...?

[iblistriggered]

So... the agent they were looking for, and the one we're looking for are different.

[he frowns]

I mean... probably a lot... even with their native agents, the Foundation is uh.... very "need to know"?

[oceanicbutterfly]

So they had a missing team, sent a team after him, they "went missing," and then at some point Tages went missing, too.

Suddenly I'm not sure I want to be here.

[Karen, you haven't been sure you wanted to be here at any point.]

[iblistriggered]

... it's not looking great, is it?

[oceanicbutterfly]

Maybe we can just burn it down.

[prayerwheel]

I can see why they eventually decided this place was too dangerous to set foot on and roped it off for so long.

[ not worth all of the missing people ]

[oceanicbutterfly]

Maybe we could just get the clown curious about it...?

[this is probably a terrible idea]

[perfeccion]

Excellent suggestion.

And THEN we'll blow it up.

[dereban]

How about we do neither of these?

[perfeccion]

On one condition.

We find some other SCP that can trap Kurotsuchi, and then blow that one up.

[oceanicbutterfly]

"Trap..." Maybe we could get a Ghostbuster out of SCP-6350.

[improbablenotimpossible]

And we just made the assumption it was Tages. We might have gotten events backwards.

[prayerwheel]

And as Silver said, we're likely looking for two different people...not that it seems possible to save Agent Turner at this point.

[ looking a bit sad. sorry timmy ]

The confusion of "T" and "Tages" and "Turner" likely didn't help matters.
