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.

Yeah, I’ll admit, I had no idea what was going on or who I should have even suspected. Like, at all. And I’m not super good at judging people in the first place so I... really want to work on figuring out if there’s a way we can do anything about the game before we have to play it more.

... I know that’s a little much to hope for. But I don’t think anything’s impossible, just really, really hard.

[dereban]

That's why the votes were all over the place. I'm sure everyone had their own reasons for voting who they did, or like... mm, just voted randomly so that they wouldn't die for "not playing the game", I guess. There's just a lot that we just don't fucking know because there's a lot of question marks about a lot.

Maybe it might be much to hope for, but I think we kind of at least need that hope? Trying to do something about all of this is better than doing nothing at all.

[thejusticewagon]

Yeah, I think so, too. Honestly I was hoping we’d be able to do something about it whether we were wrong or right or that we could get out of it without actually killing anyone, but it just got way worse...

[.... :(]

But yeah. I’m gonna try and see if I can look for stuff that might help us between now and Thursday night. ‘Cause Friday we’re stuck playing the stupid murder game or we die.

[dereban]

Yeah, the fucking tie was...

[ She frowns. It was really bad? ]

I think it could have been a hell of a lot worse at least, but it was still pretty terrible. But yeah, I sure as hell would like it if nobody else died. I really don't want to be the one to stumble onto a dead body on Friday.

[thejusticewagon]

Yeah, the tie was really bad. I think the only silver lining you can get outta that is we found out Bennings is in the clear, and even then I don’t think you can call it genuine silver. More like counterfeit silver.

[dereban]

Yeah, the fact that he is might mean that he'll get targeted next, actually. Which... honestly, isn't good. For any of us.

[thejusticewagon]

Yeah, that’s true... but maybe it means people will try and protect him now? And he can protect himself, too.

[dereban]

People might, yeah. The monsters might realize that and target someone else, but.

[ SHRUGGO ]

[thejusticewagon]

Yeah, that’s true too. Honestly, I was never the strategy person, so I dunno how to figure out what’s gonna happen with him.

[dereban]

There's honestly a lot of options here. I think he should stay with people that he trusts. My suggestion would be for him to stay with at least two other people, and to let everyone know who he's staying with in the off chance that he does die.

[thejusticewagon]

Yeah, that sounds like the best idea to me. I’d volunteer publicly but I don’t know the guy that well, so I don’t know if he’d accept...?

[dereban]

Well, we can at least suggest the idea?

[thejusticewagon]

Yeah, it's worth a shot, anyway! Better than nothing, right?

[dereban]

Definitely.

It probably would be best to remind everyone on Thursday, too, just in case.

[thejusticewagon]

Yeah, I agree, since Thursday's the last day we have, pretty much...

[dereban]

Yeah. . .
