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! ]

no subject
[It isn't self-deprecating or anything; it's just gentle, as is his expression. It seems to be his default, that.]
no subject
Think nothing of it! I would not say it if I did not mean it, after all! I am not someone who likes to lie to others.
[Adaman really is just that simple of a man, all be told. Just a dumb guy who talks about god a lot!]
Allow me to pray once more, then--for the safety of those dear to you, and so that the war of your own world will come to a peaceful conclusion as well, if I may.
no subject
[...]
If I may, however - to whom do you pray, through curiosity?
no subject
[He starts to bring his hands together to pray, but when Forrest asks his question, Adaman only pauses for a moment before grinning brightly.]
Ah, I pray to the Almighty Sinnoh--the ruler of time itself, and the protector of our region! It is through the utilization of the time that they have given us that we honor them; to make the most of every precious second that we have, so that we may all continue to prosper in their name and with their divine protection.
no subject
That's fascinating; it seems a good thought to carry, as well. Making the most of every second you have... I like that.
no subject
It certainly is! We only have so much time in the world, do we not? We know not how much Almighty Sinnoh has bestowed upon us; it is imperative that we should make every second of it count!
[His posture settles after, though, into something more calm.]
It is why I hope that when we are out of here, perhaps we may not lose contact. All of your worlds...they sound so very fascinating, and I would love to spend my time learning more!
no subject
Do you really believe that to be possible? To keep in contact, despite everything?
no subject
[Beat.]
...Though, if you do fall into Hisui, I hope that you fall into our territory. So long as I'm around, you won't be viewed with suspicion by some of our more wary types.
[sidestepping that can of worms--]
But the world is vast and full of infinite possibility! And I... [His tone goes a touch uncertain, and he rubs at the back of his head and turns away a bit.] Would certainly like to keep in contact with some of you, at least!
no subject
Forrest does consider that for a moment longer, though, before his expression brightens.]
I would like to keep in contact with you as well, Adaman. You've certainly helped make this place far less distressing, and you're a good person to know. It would be a shame to lose contact so soon.
no subject
Adaman's expression visibly brightens at that, and he looks back to Forrest easily and grins at the other guy.]
Of course, I agree entirely! And think nothing of it; I want to try and help everyone here however I can. If I can make this place just a little bit more easy to bear before we all escape with our heads held high, then I will be most happy.
You do quite a good job of that yourself, you know. I find it hard not to feel at ease around someone as disarming as you are!
