Week 2

[bathymetric]

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

It's now been a week since you were all captured. Perhaps you've already settled in. Perhaps you're already confident that you'll make it out of New Rapture alive. How serious about this could Mayor Fontaine possibly be, really?

While there still may not be much to do in your little hotel bubble, you've at least been granted a little more now - some kind of mysterious room and a sizeable library of all things. And in all the places you've looked so far, you've found valuable information, and even learned some of the story of New Rapture along the way.

Make sure to keep talking to the others! You want to keep those regain coins flowing, don't you?




SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY

[ ooc: Welcome to the second week of Unknown Seas Round 3! Please make sure to mark any investigation toplevels accordingly, and you can reach either Mayor Fontaine or Eleanor for conversations! ]

[giddyundertaker]

[ Would you know what, the Undertaker has actually set up some kinda swap shop himself. It's a random assortment even he sees little use for...

He did notice the coconut on the books. And then the lemons. ]

... Why don't you put those in the kitchen? [ gesturing at the fruit. ] More useful in there than the library.

[dullshooter]

[He feels...judged. Perhaps.]

I'm making use of them here, aren't I?

[giddyundertaker]

[ He giggles a bit. ]

Really? Now what do you think you are trying to do with them here?

[dullshooter]

Something between target practice and making an enjoyable mess.

[It's more towards the latter. He offers the gun in the Undertaker's general direction.]

You want a go?

[giddyundertaker]

Bah. [ He waves dismissively. ] Not today.

[ Then he turns to face his yard sard and gets an idea. ]

You want more things to shoot at, though?

[dullshooter]

[Wow he really said ‘bah’ without the humbug. Misfire is delighted.]

Always. What’ve you got?

[giddyundertaker]

Hm... [ He wanders over to his selection of junk and picks out the Big Daddy plushie and the creepy clown doll. ]

Here, use these. [ He tosses the toys in Misfire's direction. Catch! ]

[dullshooter]

[He kind of fails at catching them but they kind of hit him, and that’s close enough for him to get them in his arms.]

I…

[He looks at the clown. He wants to stop looking at the clown.]

At the risk of sounding paranoid, I’m not convinced this thing won’t curse me if I shoot at it.

[giddyundertaker]

Oh, come now! It's harmless!

[ He is amused at Misfire's reaction to the clown. ]

[dullshooter]

[He turns the clown to face the Undertaker.]

Look into its eyes and tell me it doesn’t activate your fight-or-flight instinct.

1/2

[giddyundertaker]

[ Joke's on you, he can only see a blurry sillouette of the clown. Terrible eyesight can be a blessing at times. ]

All the more reason to shoot at it, if a silly thing like that is enough to scare you.

2/2

[giddyundertaker]

[ Then he grins. ]

But if the big ol' robot is too afraid to use a simple toy for target practice, then I'll just have to find another way to dispose of it. Really don't need so much useless rubbish cluttering up my room, after all.

[dullshooter]

You know what, buddy?

[Misfire levels the gun, now, at the Undertaker.]

I think you’ll do just fine instead.

[Ready for the taste of sweet revenge, he pulls the trigger.]

2/2

[dullshooter]

[- And misses. Predictably.]

…Fine, I’ll shoot the stupid clown.

[He’s gonna go swap it out with the coconut. Reluctantly.]

[giddyundertaker]

[ Well, it's not like the Undertaker stood still for that. But then again it seems like he didn't need to doge that drastically.

Either way, he's grinning now. ]

[dullshooter]

Enjoying yourself?

[Misfire lazily shoots at the clown. Surprisingly, he makes a direct hit.]

If that thing does turn out to be cursed and kills me, the murder’s on you.
