WEEK 1 - MINGLE

[foundationmods]

WEEK 1

You've found a safe haven from the wind and the snow - yet, perhaps you're not quite out of danger yet. The Resort Staff are odd, but seem harmless - jumping to any whim you might have, if it doesn't make them oddly lock up.

The weather all week is perfect - the perfect temp and snow for plenty of skiing. The firepit in the courtyard is always lit too, with ingredients for smores and hot chocolate always available in the lobby. Though...in the halls, a strange bunch of songs keep playing from the hotel's sound system. Is whoever runs this place a weird cover song enthusiast?

So far, everything seems fine....but there's a weird sense of unease lingering over the Resort as everyone wakes up Monday Morning. Maybe that has something to do with that strange memory that popped in your head when you woke up? Or maybe it's that all of you woke up in the middle of a snowstorm, with no memory of how you got there?

In the end...even though everything should be fine, why does it feel like this is only the prelude to a nightmare...?

[dereban]

What the fuck.

[ While Inaba might be sleep deprived, she is here for this regardless of how she is not a skiier and just.

She's gonna poke them. ]

Oooooi, are you two alive down there.

[messianic]

[Minato just kind of...rolls over in the snow.

And then shivers.

URGH IT'S COLD. Dryly:]

Nope. We're dead. It's all over.

[dereban]

Should I pay my respects now or later?

[ She sighs, hands on her hips as she crouches down. ] Do you need help getting up?

[messianic]

[Minato just...sighs.]

Yeah... maybe. Sorry, just...very tired now.

That might've been a mistake.

[dereban]

...

[ Looking at him like how a parent would when chastising someone: ]

What did you two do?

[messianic]

[Hmm...

Minato... just kind of blandly offers up:]

Magic.

[Yep.]

[dereban]

. . . why.

[messianic]

... Is that a trick question?

[WHY NOT MAGIC.]

[dereban]

No? I'm being 100% serious.

[messianic]

[Oh. Well.]

We wanted to see if it would help get us out of here.

[A yawn...and he stretches tiredly.]

We couldn't be that lucky...

[dereban]

So you two were being reckless idiots.

[ Just putting it rather simply as she pinches the bridge of her nose. ]

Well, I guess I commend you two for at least trying.

[messianic]

[Well, that's not untrue.]

Mm... we had to give it a try. It didn't go so badly...we're just tired, but nothing bad happened.

[Nothing good happened either.]

[dereban]

[ She knows a reckless idiot when she sees one, okay. ]

Trying something is better than not trying at all. I'm just- I was just a little bit worried when I heard the sound. If it's just being tired then I guess that's fine... but still! You shouldn't just go off and do something stupid like that without telling anyone!!

[purrtagonist]

[groaning, and responding after Minato]

Remember us fondly. . . say a nice thing at our eulogy. . .

[Akira doesn't even bother rolling over when he speaks. also: swanky leather jacket! he's wearing it!]

[dereban]

Can't do that if I don't have anything nice to say.

[ Just squats down, scrutinizing him. ] But if you can say something like that, you'll probably be fine.

[purrtagonist]

Noooooo. . .

[finally rolls over onto his back, arms spread at his sides]

This is it for me. I've lived a good, long life. But it's over now. My HP bar has been depleted.

[dereban]

You're not that old, you idiot!!

[ Just going to kick him in the side lightly because seriously, Akira? ]

Do you need anything?

[purrtagonist]

[ow. jerks away from her and curls in on himself a bit, because that's rude!1]

Flowers for my grave. . .

[dereban]

[ Sorry, Akira, but that was totally deserved. ]

I'll ask the staff to put freesias, then.

[ If he knows hanakotoba at all, the meaning of that flower is "childish and immature". ]

[purrtagonist]

. . .

I want edelweiss.

[just. staying curled up on his side now. wheeze]

[dereban]

You don't deserve it. You were reckless, not courageous. Nice try, though.

[purrtagonist]

They're not mutually exclusive.

[:(]

. . . and we knew what we were doing.

[dereban]

Okay then, Kurusu, if you know what you were doing. . .

[ hands on hips, staring him down ] Then please, go ahead and explain it to me.

[purrtagonist]

Magic.

[wags his fingers at her]

[that answer is just as helpful as Minato's]

[dereban]

[ Flatly: ]

. . . did you expect it to go like this, though?
