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! ]

It really is no consequence if anyone overhears me musing about something so inconsequential.

[…]

Well. It is of consequence, I suppose. I have a daughter your age, so I was wondering if this might make a suitable gift for her.

[teenage girls like penguins right???]

[withagun]

[ Oh. Oh no— ]

Uhh. From you? No, of course from you, um... I think, maybe? It could be a good idea? It might? It'd probably be a good idea. Yeah. Yeah.

[ ...He's got no fucking clue. ]

[howveryglib]

[...]

I think I will keep it around, in any case.

[withagun]

Sorry... I don't have a lot of experience with girls. You may want to ask Mielle-san or Asahina-san... Ah, or Penelope-san, though I haven't really spoken to her much...

[ Penelope's vibes scare him. He's intimidated by the popular girl in school persona. ]

[howveryglib]

Yes, perhaps that would make far more sense. Mielle seems like she might be worth asking.

...

Perhaps you ought to consider that, as well.

[LIKE... IF YOU WANT EXPERIENCE WITH GIRLS????]

[withagun]

[ SCREAMS— ]

I-I-I mean it's not- p-pertinent or, um, pressing, right now, after all, for me...!!

[howveryglib]

Well.

If you are certain.

[...it's very hard to tell if he's fucking around or not.]

[withagun]

[ mr. van baelsar you are killing him ]

I am!!

[howveryglib]

[okay, okay maybe he’ll stop.

…

Ah, right.]

In any case, if any of these things belong to you, feel free to take them. There are no live animals this time, at least, but given that other objects from our homes have been arriving as well…

[withagun]

[ Still blushing, still recovering, please give him a moment. ] Wh- wha- ? O-oh, no, uh... I'm getting a lotta...just kinda junk too, I don't, uh...need any from anyone else.

[howveryglib]

Ah, I presumed as much. I simply wished to make sure, because it can be difficult to know what is significant to someone and what is not.

[withagun]

Yeah... [ The further they can get away from that previous subject— ] Have, uh- have you gotten anything, you um...recognize?

[howveryglib]

Well… I did not receive it myself, actually, but Brett somehow received a children’s toy from my homeland…?

[withagun]

...Huh? [ That wouldn't be something special, if there were a bunch of people from Garlemald here, but Gaius is the only one. ] A toy? ...Not...even yours?

-Not that I think, uh, a man your age would still have those, I mean, Mr. Van Baelsar.

[howveryglib]

Ah, no, of course. It is something that a subordinate of mine developed, so that is as close a connection as I can think of, but it is somewhat tenuous…

[withagun]

Ah... I see... Everything I've recognized is... Well. Something I gave someone else, and...my cat.

[ that he knows of. if only the fact that hodaka uses yahoo answers could've been more widespread through the game ]

[howveryglib]

…it truly is impossible to tell what, exactly, the purpose of this thing is…

[withagun]

It's kind of...creepy...

[ i'm sorry :)-chan he doesn't know any better ]

[howveryglib]

It certainly is. I do have to admit that I am morbidly curious about it, though…
