WEEK 4 MINGLE

WEEK 4

The weekend that just passed was....frankly, a lot. Yet despite all odds, you somehow pulled out a win from the jaws of utter defeat. As you wake up feeling tired but happy, the speakers crackle to life with the voice of The Lady.

"Attention, Guests. This week, The game is temporarily suspended. This week, there will be no mafia kill. Take a break for your hard work."

And...indeed, it seems like this is a peace week. The Staff, after the disappearance of The Captain, are acting worse than they did last week - not only is there the blankness and the stuttering, but sometimes they even get orders wrong, with potentially hazardous results. Asking the Staff for things has become more dangerous and unreliable, but at least you meals are still good. Speaking of, The Chef has put a sign up on the door, reading "DO NOT TAKE KNIVES WITHOUT ASKING FIRST!! THAT MEANS YOU!!" written in big, angry letters. The resort also seems to be gearing up for Christmas - there are lights and trees scattered around the place, as well as mistletoe for couples to get their public displays of affection on. There's also some other holiday decorations around, for Kwanzaa and....something else you definitely have never seen before. The thing....wriggles, and you don't want to be around it for long.

The weather is still nothing, except for the courtyard, which is still pleasantly snowy. 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. Are you getting closer to the truth of this place, maybe? It's hard to say.

I sure can.

Did you need me to share anything else?

- SG

[whirlingmace]

Thank you!

[ Also hmm... ]

We were ghosts before, right? Would you or Appy be able to see us- see the monsters that way before they got hosts?

[resortghosts]

I don't know. We weren't here long before you three chose your hosts. I know Kurosaki was able to see and confront the Barghest before it took Mr. Escardos, but he never mentioned the Doppelganger or the Jorogumo. I imagine they are much the same?

- SG

[whirlingmace]

I'm trying to figure out why things went...

[ Waving her arms around ]

Thank you, Prince Alfie!

[ she's good ]

[resortghosts]

All sideways and pear-shaped? Indeed.

You're welcome, Miss Cinque and Doppelling.

- SG

[resortghosts]

Actually, he was just wrong about that. I know for a fact the Jorogumo's a physical being - I saw it crawling on the walls before it took possession of someone, back when we first got here. It just looked like a small spider.

[theycallhimmrpchan]

You mean there's a spider crawling inside of someone?!

[resortghosts]

That's what I'm assuming, anyway.

[whirlingmace]

[ Omfg. ]

A baby Jojo?

[resortghosts]

No...more like the actual spider.

[whirlingmace]

So only Barghest was a ghost then?

[resortghosts]

Ah! So the Jorogumo is a physical, transfigurative parasite! Interesting!

I suppose I could have asked sooner...

- SG

[resortghosts]

Yeah. I can't tell you how it works, but somehow, it does.

[resortghosts]

It's certainly not the strangest thing I've ever heard of. Good to know, though.

- SG

[latebluemer]

If it looked like a small spider... How could you tell it was the Jorogumo? Were there special markings or something?

[resortghosts]

I just got a bad feeling around it. I'm not really Arachnephobic, but I could tell it was intelligent.

Then the next day some poor guy ended up crawling on the walls, so it didn't take much to put it together.

[latebluemer]

Well, I definitely haven’t seen anyone crawling on the walls here, so... it’s gotten better at hiding?
