WEEK 5 MINGLE


WEEK 5

They said it was a break week, but two of your number were lost anyway last week. While you're all tired and still recovering, the speakers crackle to life with the voice of The Lady.

"Attention, Guests. The game is back on. Break week is now over. Happy Holidays."

The Staff are still like they were last week - only this time, the orders almost always go wrong, if they even manage to go through - the Staff are vanishing constantly. Meals are also getting affected - they're still perfectly edible, but they're not as delicious as they once were, with seasoning and other things occasionally being off. The Sign warning people to not take knives is still on the kitchen door, but The Chef seems incredibly tired, often resting on a chair in the corner.

The Resort is still furnished with Holiday items - but after Medic's christmas protest, there are more items related to other holidays up, and it's much more balanced - objects and colors of multiple holidays side by side in harmony, with the mistletoe still up for any needed smooching. There are, however, more wriggling...things, and there's even an entire 'tree' made of eldritch tentacles with glowing balls of light on them that wink in an oddly hypnotic fashion.

The weather is still nothing, but the courtyard seems to have switched to a much warmer clime, which while still a little cool is pleasant enough to sit outside in. Finally, the music this week seems... almost ominous...?

On Monday morning, another memory is returned to everyone, one more traumatic this time instead of gentle like the others have been. Yet, you feel as if you know a little more about your time in this world, now. Not everything, but...enough.

Enough to see this game through to the end, at least.

[ After reading all of this, bunny hoodie is getting a forehead flick. And also a text response in lieu of a verbal one so that everyone can see it.

Although he can probably see the person that this message is coming from just glaring at him. ]


Don't say that about yourself, you idiot!!

"Maybe this world would have been happier if I didn't exist"?! That's bullshit! Everyone deserves to live, no matter who or what they are! Don't even think about throwing your life away like that.

What ifs won't change that you exist right here, right now. We don't know what could have been. And it's entirely possible that the world could have also been worse without you. You've helped us out so much, after all... in ways that nobody else could even do.

[ The hoodie noticeably jolts at the flick, curling up. ]

is everyone really okay with that...?

"Probably".

Is that what you want to do, though?

It's okay if you don't know what you're doing, you know? We sometimes have to run blindly through our lives because we don't know what to do.

It might take time to think about it, but... all of us are here to support you. If you want to protect this world, and many others like it, then maybe lean to us for support a bit?

We can figure things out together.

And if you are getting people hurt, that's when somebody will tell you that you've made a mistake. Because mistakes happen. We're only human.

it was easier when i first got here, i think

i didn't really want to be acknowledged or anything. i could have been happy just devoting myself to people and whatever they asked

but maybe that was just dodging responsibility too

I think it was a lot easier for all of us, initially.

But at least you're thinking about this sort of stuff now.

[ No reply. He just doesn't know what to say or do anymore, and she'll be able to see that. ]

He's getting a hug in that case, then. ]
