WEEK 2.

[trustfellows]

WEEK 2 Two people are dead. Jean Kirstein and Caren have both died due to a tragic accident. Of course, you're not entirely innocent, are you? You voted, you played into this game the Coordinators are running. But you know the stakes now. You know what failure to complete Rule Seven really means. No more excuses from here on out. Saturday is given to regrouping and sleep; come Sunday morning, the clock chimes the hour at seven o'clock and there are no dead bodies to be found, so it can be assumed that all of you are safe for the time being. That said, you'll be feeling a little groggy when you wake up; it seems you've regained something that you didn't realize you'd lost... Of course, exploring the building from here on will reveal something new: namely, a stairwell in the northeastern corner, leading upwards toward a new floor entirely. Another sign of how things are going to progress around here, maybe; chances are you'll enjoy what you've been given, but was it worth the lives of two people to obtain?

[OOC: Welcome to week two of Trustfell! Feel free to make as many top levels as you'd like and tag out to other characters! This post is for all of your interactions this week... at least until the weekend. Don't forget to save those threads for coins and the activity check!

If you'd like to get in contact with the Coordinators, you can do so through private meetings with Alena!]

My vessel is still human. It would be unfortunate to have to wait for another to mature.

[She doesn't have time to wait 17-18 years okay. However-- she considers Elda's question very seriously.]

As a group we appear to be holding together well enough. But as time goes on more and more individuals are going to become uneasy. If this goes for another week or longer I would not be surprised if we lost more individuals.

[It's not something she sounds happy about, but she's not going to deny it either.]

[matchbreaker]

You think it's holding together well?

[ She doesn't seem to be the sort who gets too involved with things... so. that surprises her?

... That vessel, huh. ]

[spiritform]

As of right now we are still willing to work together. The worst case scenario would be mass hysteria and a group of people who are unwilling and unable to interact and work together. This is not ideal, but we are still far from that scenario.

[matchbreaker]

You've mostly been an observer in things so far, as near as I can tell.

[ It's not really something she's judging her for, not really. ] I guess that suits a god and all, but you're right, no one's gone crazy and ax killed everyone except for the two dead boys.

[spiritform]

I will admit that I am not in my element with many of the concepts here. Until now I have never observed an investigation nor a trial, much less partook in one. They are human concept that I am only vaguely familiar with. However... I would like to learn so that I may be of more assistance in the future.

But yes-- even though we are all familiar of the possibility of the worst that may follow, we are all trying to avoid that right now. It may not hold, but I respect everyone's strength.

[matchbreaker]

Well, me either. [ But then, she's content to make an ass of herself, so... shrug. The woman takes her hand back to herself and puts an arm behind her back: ]

So, did you get some weird dream at the top of the week?

[spiritform]

Yes. Although I believe it may be more than just that.

[She has reasons to believe that at least, thanks to the presence of a particular doctor that's here.]

At the very least, it is something that may be true.

[matchbreaker]

Yeah? Why's that?

[ . . . Apparently, let's be nosy ]

[spiritform]

I remembered an individual who was in an exorbitant amount of debt. The person he owed that debt to is among those who are trapped here.

[She doesn't seem to have a problem with him, even though her friend's apparently in debt to the guy.]

That man made it clear that he knew who I was but I was not aware that I had met him before. If this were true then perhaps I have.

[matchbreaker]

... so what, you think we had our memories erased?

[ And they're coming back?

[spiritform]

I cannot confirm it for certain, however it seems like an odd coincidence, don't you think?

[matchbreaker]

No, it does.

[ and it... that's horrifying for Sayaka, based on what she said at the meeting-

... Wait.

Two years...

She frowns and shakes her head. ]

How good're you about math?

[spiritform]

I am proficient with math... why?

[Well, she's willing to help regardless.]

[matchbreaker]

I'm pretty sure I've been thinking of the wrong birth year. What's 1773 plus 233?

[didntgetdadslooks]

Yeah, exactly. Even a terrible vacation is still a vacation.

[perpend]

...I do. No matter what kinds of people they are, no matter what they did before coming here, they don't deserve this.

[perpend]

...Yes. Granted, I don't know what that means, because it could mean a lot of things. The best I've got so far is some sort of brainwashing.

[sleepytimegal]

And that's all that matters in the end. ...None of us deserve this place.

[perpend]

That's exactly right.

[sleepytimegal]

...I'll try to remember that.

[evilfrenzy]

[As he thinks about it...]

I take it your mobility was limited while...plugged in?

[Was she plugged in. What were these ports even used for.]

[didntgetdadslooks]

Yup. Hence the... pale skin and the wobbling.

[evilfrenzy]

...Here's wishful thinking that you won't have to return to that, then.

[And he seems to mean that sincerely, because fuckin' yikes. It hit a little close to home.]

[didntgetdadslooks]

If I have a choice, I don't plan to.

[bloodisthicker]

...You know, I do wonder what it would take for them to decide they actually need to make more rules. Would it involve something spectacularly annoying, or...?
