WEEK 7

[bathymetric]

Good morning, passengers. Happy Sunday. Happy New Year.

Another week, another three gone in the case alone, not to mention Chloe earlier in the week. Even as you gain access to another floor, the ship by now must be starting to feel more empty than ever. It's been a long time by now, approaching two months.

Where do you think you'll be, in two months more time?

The clouds have begun to gather around the ship, this week.



SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY

[ ooc: Welcome to week 7, everyone! Remember to turn in AC here and coins for regains over here! If you wish to get in contact with the npcs, Davy Jones is over here, and The Captain is over here! And as requested, profiles are accessible here. ]

[That gets a laugh from him; that's exactly the sort of thing he wanted to hear, thanks Magica.]

It did take him quite a bit to consider starving us, didn't it? Oh dear...

[magycks]

Exactly. At a certain point, you start to wonder how much of the persona is just an act so we won't realize how inexperienced he really is.

... Not that it changes literally anything about this entire setup or the grim vengeance we'll eventually exact on him, of course. But if he wants us dead, which he clearly does, why wouldn't he just go for the jugular to begin with?

[scythegun]

I've been wondering that too. Many of his offers rely on us trusting him to begin with - why bother with anything that could benefit us when he clearly wants us dead? Threats would be far more effective.

[Which is probably why we've had so many cases of possession or accidental murder.........]

It really does seem as though he's stumbling through this, trying desperately to find something that will work without going for the obvious ones initially.

[magycks]

God, it's like we've been watching someone throw their weight into a door labeled "pull" for a month and a half. [ She exhales in an irritated huff. ] I haven't killed anyone! Do you have any idea how bad at your job you have to be to accomplish that?

At least now he's managed to hit something. Problem is, it assumes you have loved ones, so!

[scythegun]

Risotto's an assassin and I lead the assassin's guild back home, and neither of us have killed either. It's a bit ridiculous that we've reached this point...

[Accidental deaths, cases of possession, kills that happened in the moment instead of being planned out... man, the Captain really isn't looking great here, is he.]

[magycks]

And now you mention occupation, he could just have offered money. See how easy it is?!

[scythegun]

He really isn't good at this, is he...

[rip captain....]

[magycks]

Tragic, really. If only we could put him out of his misery.

[ dw guys reika has it covered ]

[scythegun]

I do hope we'll be able to manage that someday soon. It really would be satisfying, ja?

[magycks]

Unimaginably so.

... I mean, after we split him, maybe a bit less? But there's definitely gonna be some [ if she were not from a children's cartoon she would absolutely be doing the jerkoff pantomime motion while she says this, and you can really hear it in her voice ] "conscientious objectors" to ensure everyone gets a fair share.
