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.

Damn, I really thought we could’ve been onto something, tiny-hands.

Sorry to disappoint…
dullshooter: (loser)

Don’t worry, my standards for disappointment were dropped a long time ago. I don’t think I can even feel it anymore.
withagun: (let's go 💧)

Ahaha...ha...

[ The driest possible laugh. ]

That's...good [ ???? ] Mr. Robot.
dullshooter: (timberrrr)

Please, call me Misfire.

[Mr. Robot would be his father, if he had one.]
withagun: (falling through a crack in time)

Okay, Misfire-san.

[ What a name... That doesn't inspire a lot of confidence, but Hodaka's not going to say that. What he does say is- ]

Ah, and I'm Hodaka.

[Check out his profile if you want to lose even more confidence! Or, like, just give him five more minutes. He can always sink lower.]

Nice to meet you, kid. Let’s hope this’ll just be a brief encounter.
withagun: (we may get ahead of hard times)

[ Hodaka gulps, as he glances at the profiles again. Not to check Misfire's, but because he's been...reminded of them. ]

...Yeah. Uh- no offense. But...I wouldn't like to be here...for too long.
dullshooter: (side)

[Please don't be foreshadowing.]

None taken. I wouldn't either.
