Week 3

[bathymetric]

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

It's a strange sort of feeling, waking up on Sunday. Not the least because, well... you fell asleep on Friday, didn't you? Whether you sleep or not, none of you remember Saturday. Everything, by all accounts, seems to be Sunday. Weird.

It's not all bizarre feelings of lost time that you have to show for your efforts, though - it seems that another wing of New Rapture is ready for you. Perhaps there's more information to be found about your situation there... and maybe more about the history of this place, if that interests you.

There are still 23 of you left... Keep getting to know them. There's regains to get, after all!




SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY

[Hagakure's on his way out of the department store with his arms full of tacky spiritual decorations when he spots Nandor near the entrance. It's later on in the day so he was probably let in once already, but now that Hagakure knows Nandor's a vampire, he's gotta ask:]

So if you're let in once, are you covered for the rest of time? Or d'you gotta ask every time?

[He wasn't there for the vampire AMA... Despite his interest at the trial, that evening was a bit of a downer?]

[fuckingguy]

Just the once.

[ but what kind of tacky spiritual decorations are we talking here....... he's being kind of brisk in his answer mostly because he's focused on checking out the goods! ]

[sixthnonsense]

[It's basically what you'd find in a Michael's Halloween aisle. There's a decent incense burner too, and an Americanized Buddha statue.]

Oh, good. That'd be a pain in the ass otherwise, I bet.

[fuckingguy]

Extremely annoying, yes. [ And he's zooming in on the incense burner and whatever the gothest, most skeletony shit in Hagakure's arms might happen to be! ] Oh, fascinating. This was all stuff you got inside?

[ he hasn't even walked into the store yet....... ]

[sixthnonsense]

[Whoa now, that's a little too spoopy for the occult-hating Hagakure here.

...but there's totally a little meditating skeleton figure because he thought it was fun.]

Yeah! Isn't it neat? My room's gonna feel so much more...roomier with this stuff! Do you like this kinda stuff too?

[fuckingguy]

[ Look, to be fair, this is the guy whose response to crepe paper is "so deliciously macabre", his sensibilities can contain multitudes! ]

Not exclusively, but it is good to know the option is there, you know? [ .... ] Oh, yes! How is the taxidermy department?

[ Not very impressive, it would seem, since that's clearly the only reason Hagakure doesn't have one in his arms right now! ]

[sixthnonsense]

Oh, uh...

[Ew?? He's more than a little perturbed by the question, but at the same time he's not even surprised that Nandor would ask.]

Y'know, I didn't even think to check? I don't think a department store would have the real deal anyway. It'd be a mass-produced replica or something.

[fuckingguy]

It would...?

[ MUCH TO CONSIDER.............. ]

That might explain the prices at the Spirit Halloween pop-up marketplace. I mean, obviously most of their wares are shit quality, but I thought they were maybe just using rat fur or something.
