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! ]

[ He thinks for a moment, hand tapping against his chin. ]

After my staff, there's really not much else I can think of either. There's a lot of miscellaneous things in my inventory, but I doubt most of it can be used here, like health and mana potions.

[onemillion]

[This sounds like a video game. Rossiu has probably never played a video game. So he just sort of tips his head, looking very confused.]

I... see.

[He does not see.]

Well, should I come across anything like that, I'll be sure to let you know.

[What does a health or a mana potion even look like...?????]

[buriedstar]

[ Seo Dawon can't help but laugh a little. ]

Please do. If I get anything you want, feel free to let me know too. So far all I've gotten is...

mango
rations
ugly fish plush
XXL t-shirt
Life-sized plush penguin
Inflatable crocodile

[ He rattles this all off like he's reciting from a list. ]

[onemillion]

[...]

I see the vending machine holds very little of value.

[Wow, he hasn't gotten any of those and still he's managed to get some truly worthless things!!! Incredible.]

[buriedstar]

All the food makes me wonder if one day the restaurant is going to sink into the depths.

[ Starvation motive??? ]

[onemillion]

...That is a good point. I hadn't considered that before.

[Oh no......... starvation motive would be really effective.........]

I suppose it would be worthwhile to hold onto them just in case something like that happens. Though I sincerely hope we don't have to worry about any part of this building sinking.

[buriedstar]

You never know.

[ This is a wonderful idea to spread around, smh. ]

I think that would kill too many of us for it to happen. Misfire would be fine, but I wonder if there's anyone else? [ Other idle food for thought... ]

[onemillion]

I do think that would go against all the work the Mayor put into setting this up... but we certainly can't rule out an accident.

[can't wait for everyone to drown and misfire to win the game!!!]

[buriedstar]

Some of the rooms are pretty leaky... I told Eleanor to fix her office, but it doesn't seem high on her priority list.

[ Cheers for Misfire! ]

[onemillion]

It does seem like she's prepared in case this place does flood...

[The diving suit, he means.]

You've spoken with her, though? Did she have anything interesting to say?

[buriedstar]

I wonder how fast she can put it on...

[ Other idle, terrible, food for thought. Seo Dawon nods. ]

The usual about New Rapture and her devotion to it. Her pitch needs a lot of work, not to mention her delivery and appearance. ]

[onemillion]

[Don't comment on her appearance, that's mean!!!]

I'm not surprised she has nothing more to share; she likely has to be very careful with what she says.

[But still, there's a reason he hasn't spoken to her. She sounds like she's totally fine with her position here and he's not about that!!!]

[buriedstar]

[ It is but looks matter when you're trying to sell something! Or at least that's what Seo Dawon thinks. ]

Careful is one way to put it, aloof is another. She might respond better to someone her own age, which I'm several years too old for.
