thefoundation | 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.

sorry!!

i thought they were important!

They were hairpins!

i know, but when i looked at them they looked important!!

Just because you see find a totally off-season pumpkin and candy shaped hairpin does not mean that it's important!

no it was the

actually you know what never mind

Don't make me drag you out of this storage room so I can find out what you did, Nanase.

i didn't do anything?!!

Sounds fake.

we got the info they needed right? so it's okay!

It's not okay when you're using your abilities to find useless crap that, may I remind you, almost got both of us killed!

...Did you use your powers again, Yoshi?

...Did you at least get it okayed with one of the doctors first?

this is like a trap...

...If you answer honestly, I'll be less angry than I would be if I find out from someone else.

it was just a little!!

i didn't calculate it out until i saw which numbers were really big and complicated

i think it's only bad if i'm trying to like, process a bunch of info?

...I kind of expected this to happen, so I'm not surprised, just a little disappointed you would endanger yourself like that, and a bit worried. It's good that you're at least trying to reduce the strain they have on you, but I'd rather you not take risks like that, especially around a... "giant oil monster cat"?/span>

[...Honestly, that kind of sounds like a Dusk Monster from back home, but... Let's not think about that too much.]

i didn't know it was a cat until it got mad at us...

i think it's usually in the jacuzzi?

You... stole the oil cat's hairpins.

[You're both being judged now. Nanashi more so, naturally.]

i thought they were like some kinda key item for advancing!!

I can't believe I'm saying this, but this isn't a video game, Nanashi! You don't have infinite lives!

You used your eyes for this, didn't you.

[ no response. ]

[She's just sighing deeply into her tablet at this point.]

What exactly did you see?

just that there was something with more complicated numbers than the rest

Just a little, right? A little wouldn't hurt anything. And then you just went in by yourself.

[Hey, remember the other thing she was warning him about. Remember that part.]

inaba was with me!!
