Week 2 Mingle

[foundationmods]

WEEK 2

With the nature of this 'game' out, the resort might not look so welcoming anymore. The staff are still ready to jump in and serve guests in any way they can, provided a request doesn't make them short-circuit, and the resort itself seems as warm and cheery as usual. But everyone knows the truth now. This resort is hiding some pretty big secrets, and it's only a matter of time before someone else turns up dead.

The weather is holding steady, at 'cold but still safe for outdoor activities'. The temperature seems to be dipping lower each day, though, and the previously-blue sky is starting to stay grey more often than not. Could that signal an approaching snowstorm? Who know. There is still music playing in the halls, and the cover songs continue with some low-key music for the week.

On Monday morning, another memory is returned to everyone. Another piece to the puzzle, one step closer to finding the truth of this place. But it might not be enough to put everything together yet, that might take some more time.

Most importantly, everyone needs to get to know each other. This 'game' is one of 'know your enemies', and your very survival depends on knowing when someone is acting odd.

Re: meeting

[duskhound]

[Okay, people have been reporting dreams, so I guess I have to...]

Actually, I have an announcement relating to the dreams from last week. The Apprentice confirmed it, but...

The bodies we're currently in are new bodies. The dreams from last week were probably memories of... getting our new bodies.

[xenoqueen]

...What the hell do you mean?

[duskhound]

I mean, these are not our original bodies. I don't know how else to put it exactly, but somehow, we ended up in different bodies.

[xenoqueen]

...Thanks.

[For not elaborating on that at all.]

[justonezero]

[Silently cheering for you, Ellie! You can do it!]

[duskhound]

[Your support is appreciated, Yoshi! It is literally the only reason I'm saying anything!]

[dereban]

But why would we even need new bodies?

[duskhound]

That... I don't know. But I have my own evidence, and The Apprentice confirmed it.

[dereban]

Are we talking about the stuff he said when he initially showed up?

Or something else?

[diesifkilled]

Wait, what!?

[duskhound]

I don't really know how to explain it more than that, really. But these aren't our original bodies.

[diesifkilled]

That's... actually kind of a relief. Because in those memories, I was infected with something dangerous.

[tacticalespionageaction]

[Hnrnrhghhh?]

[duskhound]

[...I'm not sure how to respond to questioning grunts, to be honest. Like, what are you questioning here?]

[dolleyed]

What the fuck?

[duskhound]

I know, it's strange, but I'm fairly certain it's true. And it's something that happened before waking up in the snow.

[jumpedtheshark]

[Ah. Well. That’s one of her many questions answered.]

That... explains a lot.

[messianic]

[Honestly, even if Minato doesn't interject here, he was thinking much the same.

Hmmm.]

[maskarang]

Did he say anything else?

[duskhound]

Well, he mentioned that once we remember enough, He can talk about who he is. Aside from that, I asked him if it was safe to discuss it in public, and he said it was my decision, so I decided that if more memory dreams came up... I would tell everyone.

[latebluemer]

... Well, this wasn't ever my actual body in the first place.

[So that could explain. A lot. But it's also just as wild as her virtual avatar suddenly becoming real while she was in it. Either way, her consciousness is just kind of floating all over the place and she still has no idea how to feel about that. The relief has passed and now it's just...]

But I guess I might not be the only one?

[That's probably a good thing, right. It's a toss-up. She's not going to say it.]

[thejusticewagon]

...

So wait, is my actual body just... stuck somewhere?

[duskhound]

That... I don't know. I have no idea what's gong on with our actual bodies.

[delusive]

New bodies? [what the hell are they even dealing with...] Why would we need new ones in the first place?

[duskhound]

I don't know the answer to that, but the Apprentice mentioned that "we would understand why once we remember enough".

That doesn't really help right now, though.
