Week 2.

[trustmods]

WEEK 2 Two people are dead. Ken Kaneki has been murdered, Reaver has been executed - and perhaps most uncomfortably, the Conductor is proud of you all for adhering to due process. (As always, by which he means that there is a process, and you all are certainly doing it.) 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... However, once you've shaken that off, there are new things to be looked at; the previously closed-off area near the kitchen has been unlocked, and there's a new floor to be explored - consider it your reward for a job well done. PARTICIPANTS REMAINING: 27

SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY

[Tabby's too busy stealing stuff of her own to notice Dio stealing stuff. She doesn't even need any of this, she is literally just stealing to steal stuff at this point.

But.]

Hey, have you seen any, like, poisons? Kaneki had some from the machine, but you'd think he'd just leave it sitting around if he wants us to die. Like, why even give us medical supplies?

[midnightsea]

Presumably, it would be a problem for him if one of us were to die accidentally rather than being outright murdered.

[charming.]

As for poison, I've not seen any that I recognize.

[zomgboom]

How am I supposed to kill anyone and get away with it if all we have is, like, knives and stuff? Rigged. This whole thing is rigged.

[She's not planning on killing anybody but really. This is Some Bullshit.]

[midnightsea]

I'm sure an overdose would do the job well enough, if you're after a method to keep blood off your hands.

[zomgboom]

No, that's a total gamble on whether they'll actually die or not. [She lived on the streets and knew enough drug addicts to know that not every overdose will kill.] There's, like, no point in killing anyone at this point? We, like, know it's just going to end up in us dead so it's not even a viable way out.

[midnightsea]

It all depends on if one thinks they can get away with it or not. I expect there are some among us that are willing to risk that.

[zomgboom]

I'm not saying it won't happen - it's, like. You know, like how reality tv is way scripted and stuff? That's this place.

There's just no point, as far as I can tell. Did you ever, like, think about why we're here? What's the Conductor get out of this? What is the point?

[midnightsea]

Who can even guess? It's likely that there is no point and he just wants to see us all die.

[zomgboom]

No, but it's like. Normally he would have been all "MWAHAHAHA SILLY PARTICIPANTS, I HAVE BROUGHT YOU HERE TO DIE" or something? Like, a villain speech or whatever? Everyone gives a speech, it's required and stuff, but he was just like "hi you're here I can't send you home sorry" and like. [How does she put this.] He's actually really, like, not exactly nice? But he's definitely not evil? Today he told me he was going to try and figure out why I don't have powers but Kaneki did. Why . . . wouldn't he already know that if, like, he's the one who brought us here?

[midnightsea]

...That is an excellent question, actually.

[Dio presumed most of his own powers were intact, or he'd been starving for a week for no real reason.]

I suppose the first question to ask would be 'what makes your abilities different from Kaneki's?'

[zomgboom]

I dunno. He said it was like. [She pulls the letter out of her pocket because it was some Science Bullshit and she's really bad at that.] "A-key-esss-ent kept his abilities because they were inherent to his species."

So I guess it's like. The X-Gene is inherent to being a mutant? But it's, like. Everyone's X-Gene does different stuff or whatever? So it's kind of, like, similar to my hair being blond but Kaneki's being black or whatever?

[That is 200% not how genetics work but Tabby tried really hard with that explanation because the X-Gene is 100% comics bullshit that barely makes sense.]
