MOCK ROUND - WEEK 1

[foundationmods]

All of the guests awoke in their rooms, just like they had before.

Yesterday had been a day of surprises.
First, they'd finally met the person who had brought them here.
Secondly, they'd learned they were going to be playing a false murder mystery for two weeks.
And most important, they learned that wishes could be granted if they won this game.🗈

Still, for now, it seemed like there wasn't much to do. Was the Witch already in talks with the 'Murderer'? Was the 'victim' already decided upon?

There was no way to know until some day later this week, apparently.

Still, it wasn't all bad. The island was beautiful and the climate just perfect for beachgoing, or taking a cosy walk in the garden. There were also board and card games which would be produced upon request, to help ease the boredom of it all.

Though, perhaps the guests would prefer to get to know each other instead? On maybe get into some trouble as they roamed the island.

Yet, with only a fake game in front of them....there's no proper sense of foreboding, is there?

....But maybe all of this...

...Is just the calm before the storm.

[ After learning what the heck today even is, he can be found back in the library, sitting on top of a table, legs hanging off the side. He's frowning hard at a book. ]

How did they get a day like this... from all this? [ muttered quietly before: ] Human beings really are stupid and weird...

[ Later on, he's sitting at the docks, feet in the water as he studies a thing with a slight frown.

A frown that's edging towards an outright glare as he quietly asks: ]

... Do you belong to him, then?

[artificialhighness]

... I do agree, but what are you reading, Vanitas?

[She seems bemused more than completely in agreement.

Of course she doesn't know how he's approaching the theme of the day, but she does know what day it is, so she's not surprised to find him out of sorts. Luna is going to try and peek at the book, but she's not trying too hard.]

[enter_the_darkness]

[ He blinks, and then glances up... before holding the book up for her to see. ]

Just wondering where Valentine's even came from.

[artificialhighness]

[Speedread time! Or just skimming. She's good enough at that to get the gist, head cocking curiously as she too tries to make sense of it.]

There are many holidays that come from religion, aren't there?

I didn't expect this one to be -- it seems like it should have been a more lighthearted thing. Humans really are unpredictable.

[enter_the_darkness]

[ He shrugs. ]

I actually don't know much of anything about holidays, so I can't say.

[ But, he does nod at the last part. ]

They really are. Maybe it's one those cases of wanting to make something positive out of something dark and terrible. A lot of humans seem unable to handle the absolute worst of the worst without some kind of filter or lie put in place.

[dawnwardspiral]

[ The light-haired male approached the other...looking to take him up on that offer for that "spar" and saw him here. ]

What belonged to him?

[enter_the_darkness]

[ He'd been planning to head more onto the beach, but... might have gotten a little distracted. ]

... Oh. [ lifting his eyebrows at Riku ] Trying to get the jump on me?

[ There's a faint smirk, though it's fading as he dangles the green thing in his hand. ]

Just some trinket they shoved at me. Did you get something from home, too?

[dawnwardspiral]

Not yet.

[ Riku is calmly waiting until the fisticuffs happen. ]

I did. Though...unless you're from Destiny Islands you probably won't recognize it.

[enter_the_darkness]

[ Smirking gently at the first part, though there's something softening in his expression at that... name...

He blinks a couple of times and shakes his head. ]

Yeah? [ tilting his head to the side ] Try me.

[dawnwardspiral]

[ ...He saw that and it makes him curious - did he know of the place? Then again it wasn't a coincidence he had Sora's face...so maybe he'd know after all. ]

Ever heard of Paopu fruit?

[enter_the_darkness]

[ There's a momentary look of thought, and then he shakes his head, twirling the green thing around one finger. ]

It doesn't quite ring a bell, no.

[dawnwardspiral]

...Well, that settles that.

[ That the other didn't know, but the mystery of why he still looks like Sora still persists... ]

Back on my world, if you shared it with someone, it'd mean basically your life would be intertwined with them forever.

[enter_the_darkness]

[ He lifts his eyebrows a little... ]

Yeah?

[ Strange... But, then he's just giving a small smirk. ]

Planning on sharing it with someone here?
