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.

[ After his discussion with Iwai yesterday, Owain had a request for the Staff. Upon finding the first, poor unlucky soul-- I mean lucky and helpful staff member, Owain requested for a Levin Sword. The staff member nodded and kept a healthy distance before running off to fetch the blade. After getting the blade, the staff member offered it to Owain, who took it, fingers accidentally grazing the hand of the staff member, who then proceeded to strike a BOLD AND POWERFUL pose, before they were ushered away never to be seen again.

Now, Owain is outside in the ski area, in front of an army of snow men. For once, he's actually looking pretty serious. He's swinging the sword in front of him, getting a feel for its weight. ]

Okay, let's do this.

[ He takes a stance, but rather than charging at the snowmen, he points the blade in the direction of one of the snow men and then lightning seems to come down from the sky and strikes the snow man dead.

Owain pauses as he takes in the destruction of the snow man and grins. ]

I guess I got more magic from Mother than I thought!

[whirlingmace]

[ WOW ARE YOU KILLING THE SNOW CHILDREN

Cinque hears the sound and comes to investigate. The snow crunches loudly underfoot as she hurries over to see. ]

Hello hello. Are you beating up the snow?

[swordhandled]

More training than anything. I haven't used a Levin Sword much before, so I figured that now that I have one, I should work more at it.

[whirlingmace]

Oh! What's the Levin Sword? Is that what all the lights and noise came from?

[swordhandled]

[ he holds the blade out in front of him ]

This is the Levin Sword! Unlike normal swords, it uses the magic within you to attack enemies with lightning. Would you like a demonstration?

[whirlingmace]

[ It's pretty cool looking. Giving a nod ]

Yes, I would I would.

[geckodad]

...that's far more destructive than expected.

[Oh no]

[swordhandled]

It seems that I have more magic in me from my mother than I thought.

[ you can trust this kid iwai

it's not like he shouts out about how he's going to VANQUISH EVIL all the time ]

[geckodad]

Don't zap any staff person with that, legendary hero.

[Or the captain. Or the lady. Or...anyone even if there's plenty of evil here]

[swordhandled]

I'll be careful with this, as with any other sword.

[ only snowmen will be victim for now ]

[geckodad]

Good. [He's not 100% convinced, but he won't say he doesn't believe Owain] With some luck this won't give others ideas about gettin' their own magic swords.

[You started it by giving Owain the idea, Iwai. If that happens, it'll be your fault]

[maskarang]

[ Why are people always lighting up the ski area? Please, the slopes are his home. Respect them. Also, that looks like a Levin Sword so he's coming over. ]

Are you surprised?

[swordhandled]

[ hey it's also Owain's home, so share ]

I wasn't aware it was this much magic.

[maskarang]

[ only one person can own these snowy hills. they're gonna have to fight to the death for them, there's no other way ]

I'm surprised you didn't know. I made sure to test my proficiency with every weapon I could find before settling for an axe.

[swordhandled]

Father never had much use for Levin Swords, so I simply followed him.

[ also no never, we're sharing ]

[maskarang]

[ sounds like owain ]

What will you do now?

Ski Area

[jumpedtheshark]

[The sudden lightening gets a startled shriek from Tsumugi, who went looking for Owain once she finished the modifications to his G.I. Joe earlier today. She almost drops said G.I. Joe into the snow from shock. A small more calm part of her thinks that when she got carried away and made a small removable Fun Foam sword and sheath, that it should have been modeled after that.]

[swordhandled]

Oh, Tsumugi! [ owain turns when he hears her shriek. he's still got a smile on his face, but he lowers his sword and calmly walks over to her. running with a sword is a no no after all ]

I hope I didn't shock you too much with that display?

[jumpedtheshark]

A-ah... not too much. I was just plain startled.

[Just... give her a few seconds to recompose herself. Once she's calm again, a highly decked out G.I. Joe is held out to Owain. It's to his specifications, except for the removable Fun Foam sword in Gallant's hand and the sheath at his side.]

I got a bit carried away and made a sword for him too...

[swordhandled]

Ah, this is brilliant!

[ taking him from her and looking over every single inch of him, commenting on EVERYTHING ]

[jumpedtheshark]

Thank you!

[Tsumugi looks absolutely pleased, if a bit sheepish at his reaction.]

I'm not that experienced with dolls... but it was plain simple to treat it as making a miniature cosplay.

[justfists]

[huh, she looks a little impressed.]

Oh, not a bad shot.

[swordhandled]

Oh, Makoto!

Thank you.

[justfists]

Practicing in case a fight breaks out?

[swordhandled]

More like I mentioned this sword to Iwai and was curious about if the staff would provide it. Since I received it, I might as well practice with it.
