Week 1

[bathymetric]

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.

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! ]

[Yikes! Noted!]

No, she didn't. Just took the entire day to get to the point, and then I missed my flight and ended up stranded in Boston.

[specialyellthing]

Sounds like she may as well have killed you, strandin' you in Boston.

[Is that a bad joke, considering their circumstances? Probably, but Zinda's still convinced that's all a scare tactic, unless one of them takes the mayor up on his offer. Which-- she's not ruling out, but she's trying not to dwell on at the same time.]

And what was the point? She give you anything good?

[inaclearing]

...yeah, actually. Good might not be the right word, but it was...important to know, I think.

[For reasons that are maybe a little too long and complicated to get into.]

I was there to learn some of her family history, some...unpleasant parts of it. I think that's why she was trying so hard to put me off.

[specialyellthing]

There ya go. You’ve already survived one crazy rich person. You’re bound to pull it off a second time. [She winks, her tone easy and reassuring. And when the food comes out of the tube… she didn’t lie about the steak and chocolate cake.]

You holding up okay?

[inaclearing]

As well as anyone can expect, I guess. This sounds stupid, but I'm actually getting bored, mostly. There isn't a lot to do in here.

[Whoever heard of being bored in a murder aquarium with robots and wizards?]
