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.

I think a lot of us have information written down in our personal notebooks, or journals, or whatever. We'll have to put it together eventually, to get anywhere.

[Unspoken: Hopefully while the writers are still alive. She's just... tired of post-mortem notes at this point.]

I can confirm it with your source afterward, yeah. But do you think -- if she came from outside the Resort, and had something to do with the change, do you think she had something to do with starting this game of mafia? If so, I really would like to give her a piece of my mind.

[To say the least.]

Please do, but try not to force too much out of him? She did some things that were... not great, to be honest when I asked him about it, and I don't really want him to freak out remembering it all on top of whatever he remembered today.

I think it's possible that she might be somewhat involved with why the game started to begin with, but it's also possible that she's an observer that gets entertained by making the situation worse.

That's just my two cents on it, though.

I'll be careful, but... who should I be asking? I don't think you gave me a name yet.

[She can take a wild guess, but given that probably literally everyone got hit by not-great-things this weekend and today she does need more information.]

I guess we should consider all the possibilities, though. It's not exactly a... locked room murder mystery when the Resort is still taking in guests. But there's still only so many people it can be, I think.

[Unless they're some kind of other-planar entity they've never seen before, but you gotta start somewhere.]

Oh, right: it's Atsushi.

And yeah. The fact that the Resort is still moving is definitely a concern.

... Okay. You did say that the Lady was responsible for releasing his tiger form this last week, right? Does this mean the... other staff member has something to do with all of that, too?

[It really sounds like it, given that Inaba (she is pretty sure it is Inaba, now that they're on the subject of tigers) seems to be pretty pissed with whoever it is.]

And I know that they said it was due to snow, but I wonder if the time limit they gave us to start with was just, the amount of time the Resort would be moving.

Yes, actually.

But maybe? Who knows.
