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.

I have, actually. It's a fun game when you're bored.

[latebluemer]

I’d ask if being a ghost gets boring, but it probably never will considering who you’re rooming with these days.

[Just saiyan. She does not envy the Appy.]

Okay, truth or dare?

[resortghosts]

Ha! You're right about that.

Truth.

[latebluemer]

[This is maybe only the second Truth she’s gotten, so she takes a moment to switch gears. What do you ask a resident party ghost...?]

... What’s your favorite memory?

[resortghosts]

...Being in my room with my friends - from back home - with all of us just talking about what our days had been like, eating the leftovers a friend of mine brought from her job at the bakery.

[There's...almost a little melancholy in the air.]

I...really miss that, sometimes.

[latebluemer]

[She should probably be sorry for bringing up something that ends up being bittersweet — but there probably aren’t too many real truths not related to the Resort that are all that neutral for their resident ghost.]

... I’d pat your shoulder, you know, if I knew where it was. It sounds like...

[Something far away, long ago, maybe not even then. Something her brother was talking about as though it was a fact of life, and yet neither of them really understood the concept, did they?]

You had good friends. You can ask me for a truth or dare now, go ahead.

[foundationmods]

I did. I...really did. But - thank you. It's the thought that counts.

Truth or Dare?

[latebluemer]

[Have a quiet smile instead, Appy-kun. And if she ever does figure out where his features are right now, she'll give that pat. IOU.]

Truth.

[Honestly, she felt like the dares were more interesting -- but she'll give a truth for this truth.]

[foundationmods]

Alright. Tell me about your family.

[latebluemer]

... Okay.

[That she can absolutely do.]

It's just me and my older brother, Akira. He's a part of the company that created Link VRAINS -- the virtual reality I come from -- so he's usually working, but we try and do some family things once in a while. He can get overprotective sometimes, but... without him, I wouldn't be where I am now.

Does that answer your question?
