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.




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! ]

Oh...! Ah, I...guess that's probably right. Sorry.

[ As if he just insulted the man's way of life or something. ]

When, uh... How long have you been practicing?

[asymptotes]

I was... ten, I think? It's good exercise when you're not sure how much equipment you're going to have around.

[ Among its other uses, of course. ]

Mostly self-taught, actually.

[withagun]

That long?! [ ...how old is Mr. Oliver again. Hodaka can't quite remember, his eyes glazed over when reading over the adults' ages because his mind just conceptualizes them as "old." ] A-and you...taught yourself? How? Did you look up videos online?

[ oh his gen z is showing ]

[asymptotes]

Some.

[ Never forget that comics Tommy Oliver is also gen z ]

A free lesson here, a free lesson there... Technically it's not all karate, but karate's the easiest word for it. Easier to say than "oh, you know, a little Tang Soo Do, some Kenpo..."

[withagun]

[ I could never forget. ]

Ahaha... Yeah, I don't really know the difference, so, case and point... Does that mean you just kinda...use all of it?

[asymptotes]

Yeah. Learning is never wasted.

[ it's like creating some kinda.... some kinda...... mixed martial art......... ]

It's all different schools of thought on how to use your body, and they're all at least a little compatible.

[withagun]

[ gonna cast myself into the ocean rq ]

Wow... [ By this time for the record Hodaka's like. In the gym proper, closer and intrigued. ] If I wanted to learn...where would you recommend I start, Mr. Oliver?

[asymptotes]

You want to learn some right now?

[ He moves and sort of. Gestures to the space. ]

[withagun]

[ !!! ]

R-really? Like, right now right now?
