And with the sweat of your brow...

Fun Fact: Did you know that if the multiverse is real, there could be an almost infinite square mileage of completely unexplored ocean out there?

No reason.

...

You wake in one of 25 rooms with a sense of unease that doesn't quite track with how nice the accommodations are. Maybe it has something to do with the giant window leading out to the sea. The temperature is low, which might make you wish you had woken up under the luxurious covers instead of atop them. The lights, too, are low. But next to your bed is a small personal radio, and it's playing a song for you. There's also a small note printed on folded cardstock next to it.

Dear Prospective Citizen,

Welcome to the Helios Suites at New Rapture. The time should currently be 12:00 PM. Please take a moment to get your bearings and become acquainted with your new environment, then meet in the hotel lobby at 1:30 PM sharp for an orientation with Mayor Fontaine.


With only that for guidance, there's only the one thing to do: get out there and start exploring... well, it's hardly a full city, but it's something! And in the halls (or on the wall of your suite or the lobby), you very well may find up to 24 other captives.

What you do until your meeting with Mayor Fontaine, well... that's up to you. Every room certainly gives you something to talk about.

They sure are. Along with everything else about this place. Fancy hotel in an underwater city's never been on my radar, vacation-wise.

While the location certainly is... unique, I'm sure many of us have important things to get back to.

[Sure would've been nice if they could've. y'know. not kidnapped him.]
asymptotes: (🐉 you're so fuckin special)

My wife's gonna kill me, for one thing.

[rip tommy......]

Oh no. With any luck, you'll be able to return to her soon.

[He might look a little amused by that though, okay.]
asymptotes: (🐉 i wish i was special)

[personal profile] asymptotes 2022-06-12 07:46 pm (UTC)(link)
Heh. With any luck I can talk my sentence down to driving the kids around for a while.

[ He said, with genuine fondness. A normal man who loves his wife, everybody! ]

[aww, he probably drives (a gurren lagann equivalent of) a minivan.... cute......]

I wish you luck with it. I'm sure we all want to get out of here soon, so perhaps we can work together to find a way to return home.
asymptotes: (fool)

I'll help however I can. Even if it's just wrangling all the dang kids who ended up here.

[personal profile] onemillion 2022-06-12 08:49 pm (UTC)(link)
There are quite a few, from the information given about us...

[Which is pretty not cool!!!]

Though I do hope they don't need any wrangling.

[no one here is going to be well-behaved, rossiu.]
asymptotes: (to ease my troubled mind)

I know a thing or two about teenagers being told they can't do something... I hope so too, but history disagrees.
onemillion: (☆ 14)

[personal profile] onemillion 2022-06-13 01:52 am (UTC)(link)
I cannot argue with that. Our rebellion was led primarily by teenagers...

[He sounds sort of fond thinking back on it.]
asymptotes: (🐅 i'm a weirdo)

[personal profile] asymptotes 2022-06-13 06:25 am (UTC)(link)
No kidding? Yeah, I've seen teenagers do some pretty incredible things too.

[ Have You, Drakkon, You Power Rangers Villain? ]

[stop bullying the teenagers!!!]

Though I do hope they don't endanger themselves here... We'll have to see how things go, I suppose.

[ bullying is a kind word- ]

Then it's up to the adults to keep them out of danger. That's what adults are supposed to do.
onemillion: (☆ 15)

[personal profile] onemillion 2022-06-15 12:47 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, of course.

[Thinks about those times he put Gimmy and Darry in danger... Hmmm.......]

Let's do what we can for them.
asymptotes: (i haven't said enough)

[personal profile] asymptotes 2022-06-15 05:21 am (UTC)(link)
[ it's fine Drakkon has also put teenagers in danger (he was the danger). ]

If we keep everyone calm and collected, we'll be out of whatever this is in no time, I'm sure.
