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! ]

[ Despite how ridiculous this whole thing is? Misfire saying that, it seems to strike a chord in Hodaka. He raises his head a little, eyes lighting up. ]

Really? Indispensible?

[dullshooter]

Yeah! [How can he not give positive reinforcement to that face-] We’d be lost without you. Absolutely without hope. If you leave without us, we might as well give up right there.

[Okay so he’s being a little jokey but the sentiment? The sentiment is there and it’s real.]

[withagun]

[ Oh, but this is great. Hodaka, a little eagerly, responds: ] You don’t have to lay it on too thick. Or sugarcoat. If I’m not doing something the right way, I wanna know, to improve.

[ Like when he first joined K&A Planning. The first little slice of the world he carved out for himself. ]

I’ll do my best.

[dullshooter]

[Oh, he's so sincere. It makes Misfire's spark hurt.]

Don't worry, I'm excellent at drawing attention to the flaws of others. [After delivering that satisfactory reassurance, he gives Hodaka a thumbs up.] I know you'll do great. Or at least passable.

[withagun]

[ That may be discouraging to others, but not to Hodaka. It's probably the tone with which it's delivered, honestly. ]

Of course...! I'm a very hard worker, I promise!

[ ...What is it they're even referring to anymore, though...? ]

[dullshooter]

[God knows. But they’re having fun (?)]

Good! We need at least one of those.

[And he sure as hell isn’t in that category.]

[withagun]

Yeah- ah, but...

[ A small grimace. ]

Please don't get your arm stuck in the vending machine again, Misfire-san...

[dullshooter]

I’ll do my best.

[That’s not a promise.]

[withagun]

[ *Hodaka WILL remember this. ]
