Week 1

Good morning, New Rapture. A new day is dawning.

There may not be much light to differentiate the days here, but the lights of the part of the city you're in change enough by the clock that you can almost believe there's a sun somewhere. It looks like Mayor Fontaine has no intention of going back on his deal, and for the time being? You're all stuck here. But there's plenty to do, and... maybe not plenty to see, but there's enough. There's something, at any rate.

Especially if you're willing to look beyond the surface.

And if you spend enough time around others, you might find something neat!

No matter what, it's time to start getting to know your fellow captives. You might be here a while.




MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY
FRIDAY | SATURDAY


[ ooc: Welcome to the first week of Unknown Seas Round 3! We're very excited to have you. Please make sure to mark any investigation toplevels accordingly, and you can reach either Mayor Fontaine or Eleanor for conversations! ]

[Obi’s quietly pensive for a moment, too. If Hodaka got here all scuffed up and he’d just been with his girl, maybe the reason he’s been so distraught is…?

Well, anyway.]


None of ‘em are that young, right? Sixteen at the youngest. It’d almost make sense if he were looking for working-age citizens to revive this place, but with this whole killing business…

[He puffs up his cheeks and blows air out.]

Well, there are about a thousand reasons why that doesn’t make any sense. Maybe each of ‘em has something special going on that puts them on par with us adults, as far as the Mayor’s concerned.

[Brett laughs.]

It's not that high a bar with all of us. I've known some teenagers who could really kick my ass. [His amusement fades pretty quickly though.] But that doesn't mean they'll be okay, in something like this. Even if they survive, of course they wouldn't be okay.
kninja: (SLANT(ΦωΦ)Reserving judgment.)

[personal profile] kninja 2022-06-15 06:13 pm (UTC)(link)
...Suppose most people wouldn't be okay, huh. Especially if it really comes down to "kill or be killed."

[He's genuinely somber now.]

That's not something everyone's meant to handle.

No. Kid or adult.

[Brett himself doesn't feel like he's meant to handle it, in truth.]

But we don't have much choice now...if it does come down to that.
kninja: (...x2(ΦωΦ)Oops.)

...

[He rubs the back of his head.]

You think it will?

[......]

I don't want to think that.
kninja: (DISTANT(ΦωΦ)Far away for far too long.)

Guess that's fair.

[Obi remains quiet for a moment, then brings back the smiley, bouncy expression he wears around most people.]

Let's not worry about it, then, and do what we can instead to keep it from coming to that. Won't matter much what the Mayor's intentions are if we break out of here before then, right?

Yeah, you're right. That's the spirit we should try to have.
kninja: (BRAVE FACE(ΦωΦ)I'm fine!)

A guy's gotta do what he can to lighten dark times.
