MOCK ROUND - WEEK 1

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.

[He holds out the book -- 'NEEDLEMOUSE '06; THE NOVELIZATION'. There's a teal-colored spiny cartoon mouse on the cover] The characters in this book all seem like... offbrand versions of my friends! [he flips through the book, which is arranged more like a graphic novel in some parts and a normal novel in others] But I don't remember any of this...
curryparty: (tearless eyes)

[personal profile] curryparty 2019-02-17 06:18 am (UTC)(link)
Off... brand? [What does that mean.] You mean it just sort of resembles them?
iblistriggered: internally: that tunnel scene from willy wonka (me: i'm fine)

[personal profile] iblistriggered 2019-02-17 10:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah! Similar names and appearances and stuff... but it's like... [he squints at the book] Like they were trying to avoid copyright or something? It's weird.
curryparty: (But since that alone)

[personal profile] curryparty 2019-02-17 11:33 pm (UTC)(link)
I guess that's one way to do it.

[He's not one to really concern himself much with books and barely legal copies, so this is new territory for him!]

Who do they look like? As you know them, I mean.
iblistriggered: of some really high cliff (i want to go to the top)

[personal profile] iblistriggered 2019-02-19 04:54 am (UTC)(link)
Oh! Well... this one is probably Sonic. [he gestures to the spiky teal mouse on the cover] In real life, he's a hedgehog like me, and his fur is more bright blue than teal. [he flips through the book, pointing to a gold-colored mouse with three quills on his head] This guy is supposed to be me. [He flips again, and finds a pink-colored ferret with fire powers] I think this is supposed to be Blaze? But the Blaze I know is a cat... and is also from a different dimension. I didn't grow up with her like this book implies...
curryparty: (I will let)

[personal profile] curryparty 2019-02-19 04:55 am (UTC)(link)
Huh...

[He does look at this all curiously enough.]

That's odd. I wonder... if there are books like that for all of us...?

It seems like something the witch might do for fun.
iblistriggered: (not to be dramatic but)

[personal profile] iblistriggered 2019-02-19 05:02 am (UTC)(link)
I dunno! [he closes the book] Maybe we should look for some books about your world and test it!
curryparty: (As it radiates)

[personal profile] curryparty 2019-02-19 05:17 am (UTC)(link)
I haven't really been looking for those, but... we can try!

[Aaaaand time to go search! He looks for more storybook ones, and indeed, there's a few about witches and so on. One displays a little girl with a squirrel on her shoulder, a number of people behind her along with a school.

He doesn't recognize any of the faces, honestly. But the construction of the building gives him a pause.
]

...Huh.
iblistriggered: of fruit floating threateningly in the night (I love high contrast photos)

[personal profile] iblistriggered 2019-02-19 05:27 am (UTC)(link)
[Silver helps too! Or... well, he tries. But he has no idea what he's looking for and he's too embarrassed to ask]

Oh, did you find something?
curryparty: (about those lies.)

[personal profile] curryparty 2019-02-19 05:31 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe...?

[He stares at the cover, eyebrows raising.]

The building in the background looks like one of the academies... But I have no idea who the people are.
iblistriggered: of some really high cliff (i want to go to the top)

[personal profile] iblistriggered 2019-02-20 04:02 am (UTC)(link)
They don't look familiar at all, huh? Maybe.... it's from a different time?
curryparty: (As it radiates)

[personal profile] curryparty 2019-02-20 04:24 am (UTC)(link)
A different time?

[That... definitely never would have occurred to him.]
iblistriggered: (im educated but like…im still stupit)

[personal profile] iblistriggered 2019-02-20 04:28 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah! Maybe from the past... or even the future?
curryparty: (is insufficient)

[personal profile] curryparty 2019-02-20 05:47 pm (UTC)(link)
I suppose that's possible...

[He runs a hand over the cover before opening it up and flipping through curiously. It's a very sad tale, about a little girl who ends up pressed into the job of a teacher at a magical academy after the apparent passing of her own magic teacher, who is trapped in the body of the squirrel.

His eyebrow raises very slightly as he gets to the headmaster of the school. Hm.
]

...Some of the names do seem similar.
iblistriggered: literally no one knows the answer (what does cnn stand for?)

[personal profile] iblistriggered 2019-02-20 11:22 pm (UTC)(link)
[that animal thing seems like it might be an easy starting point] Hmmm... is anyone you know trapped in the body of an animal? Maybe it's not a squirrel! Maybe it's a.... bird, or something?
curryparty: (it passes over)

[personal profile] curryparty 2019-02-21 04:33 am (UTC)(link)
I think I'd remember somebody like that.

[Ahahaha...]

I haven't even heard of a case of someone transferring their soul to another creature.
iblistriggered: of some really high cliff (i want to go to the top)

[personal profile] iblistriggered 2019-02-22 04:30 am (UTC)(link)
Hmm... that's definitely strange! Maybe it's... an alternate universe?
curryparty: (Except that all by myself)

[personal profile] curryparty 2019-02-23 07:11 am (UTC)(link)
Alternate universe?

[He has no idea what that is.]
