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.

That's so cool! I tried to make a Transformer costume once but all I had was a bunch of wet Budweiser boxes from the dump and a bucket that had a crawfish living in it. [And yet he still placed second in that bar Halloween costume contest.]

...Oh dip, are we at ComicCon?

ComicCon would explain waking up in a surprise hotel room with a bunch of strangers and no memory of getting there far too well.

[He makes a note for whenever they get out of this mess to drag the others down to Earth so they can hit up a big ol' nerd gathering.]

I'm afraid this is starting to look like a bona-fide mystery.

[Whispers:]

Just like in Scooby Doo.
We gotta find a couple of pretty girls and a dog and then we'll be able to find whatever old guy in a creepy mask did it! [And that's if it doesn't turn out Janet didn't just accidentally bing him to San Diego.]

Oh yeah, and I'm Jason. [He gives Misfire a lopsided grin and holds out his hand.]

Yes. We just need to do that.

[They have girls, sure, and Gaius' title basically covers them for a talking dog right? Right.

He takes Jason's hand.]


I'm - [And here, Misfire should choose some kind of human name alias to commit to the bit. Something believable. Real. Human-like.] Mmmmis...ter Fire. Yeah. Mister Fire.
