Week 3

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

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

You mean a radio?

[Wow, there are a lot of old-timey people here. Dandy does recall Obi mentioning something like a "lady" in the group meeting? Hm.

Also, he's happy to know that even if he isnt fucking, most people aren't! Although don't worry there's time for that to change.
]

You don't have them where you're from?
kninja: (OLD MAN(ΦωΦ)Back in my day...)

[personal profile] kninja 2022-06-30 03:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Sure, radios. Well, we don't have a lot of things here where I'm from. Vampires, eletricsity, solicitors... I've kinda stopped asking about things unless I think I need to know about 'em right then.

[Sigh.]

Miss Joy tried to explain about other worlds to me by saying they're like a pastry. I had to just nod and go along with it.
bootyhunter: (97)

YOU JUST HAD TO MENTION THE MULTIVERSE HOW DARE YOU!!!!

[personal profile] bootyhunter 2022-06-30 04:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Hoo boy!

[He's relieved to finally run into someone who might have the same perspective on the multiverse as himself, although unfortunately for Dandy, he's had far more experience with it.

The cost of which has been accumulating rapidly since he stepped foot in this place.
]

It can take on the form of a pastry, a pizza-pie, a bucket of slop...

And sometimes it's just a gapin' black hole! Ready to suck ya in at the drop of a leftover BooBies baseball cap. Those are limited edition, y'know! I'm hopin' to snag my own one of these days.

[Which is ridiculous, seeing as his hair wouldn't fit inside of one.]

Short answer is, "It's complicated," baby.

You've got the right idea. Not thinkin' about it, [and not thinking in general] is probably for the best.
kninja: (SMUG(ΦωΦ)Oho?)

After what you made me think about at the top of this thread I'M ENTITLED TO MY REVENGE

[personal profile] kninja 2022-06-30 04:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Uh-huh. See, now I'm nodding and going along with you.

[He says, nodding and going along with it.]

Brett kinda treats both me and His Honor like we're backwards in time from him, even though I'm not even from the same world. All this is to say, if something's magic or more complicated than a four-wheel carriage, I've probably never heard of it.
bootyhunter: (08)

ok fair but this is a different kind of pain

[personal profile] bootyhunter 2022-06-30 04:40 pm (UTC)(link)
D'uuuuuh...

[He tilts his head to the side.]

Who exactly do you mean by, "His Honor?"
bootyhunter: (162)

[...So it would seem that Dandy was right to encourage Jonathan, to remind the young litigator that he is far from alone.

The thought brings up more emotions than it should, which is uncomfortable. Bizarre stomach floofies aside, it comes to Dandy's attention that despite his generalized love for people and all things living, he-
]

Oh.

[Feels lonelier than he's ever felt before.

Even moreso than on the day he died.

Well, one of them anyway.
]

Why does he get a hip and happenin' nickname as opposed to the rest of us?
kninja: (!(ΦωΦ)Hmm!)

[personal profile] kninja 2022-06-30 05:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Huh?

[Obi blinks, looks up at the ceiling, then back down at Dandy.]

I give most of you a title, actually. Misfire's the only one who told me not to. I've been calling you Dandy-sir this whole time.
bootyhunter: (61)

[personal profile] bootyhunter 2022-06-30 05:44 pm (UTC)(link)
[Frowning, still! Because he is jealous... Unfortunately, Dandy has inhaled way too much hair gel at this point in his life to understand who exactly it is that he's jealous of in this situation, but thankfully he knows enough to understand that jealousy is in fact what he is experiencing.]

That don't sound nearly as fancy, Obi-baby!

[Despite the addition of the seemingly affectionate nickname, Dandy seems bothered.]
kninja: (LOLWUT(ΦωΦ)You're joking right?)

[personal profile] kninja 2022-06-30 05:53 pm (UTC)(link)
[Geez, Dandy. Obi briefly raises those indistinct eyebrows of his and then puts his hands on his hips.]

Okay, we can workshop it. I based His Honor's on his job, so I'm sure I can come up with something similar for you.

[Obi has no reason to believe that this is not what Dandy's jealous of.]

You're some kind of hunter, is that right?

[An alien hunter, a truck driver, even a fucking googly-eyed triangle...

Wait, shit, no!

He is this Dandy, meaning that he's just a Dandy guy in space. Someone who roams the galaxy on the hunt for rare aliens, all while combing his very fabulous pompadour...
]

Yeah.

[He knows who he is, he's always known who he is.

Especially while having the opportunity to forget.
]

I am.
kninja: (AHOY(ΦωΦ)My ship! It sails!)

[personal profile] kninja 2022-06-30 06:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Hmmm, a hunter...

[Still misunderstanding the fundamental problem, Obi crosses his arms, gives his head a tilt, and taps a toe.]

Nobles often hunt, but I feel like that's not very creative of me? I've already got a princess and a lady and a little queen. Duke Dandy has a certain ring to it, I suppose, but...

[He rubs his chin, then tilts his head the other way.]

Do you like birds?
bootyhunter: (04)

[personal profile] bootyhunter 2022-06-30 07:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Depends on the kind of bird!

[Not in particular is the real answer.]

If she's got long legs and is real, real pretty? Yeah, you could say I'm a fan.
kninja: (WINK(ΦωΦ)Mee-yow.)

[personal profile] kninja 2022-06-30 07:44 pm (UTC)(link)
[Snort.]

I was thinking of falcons. Duke Dandy or Sir Falconer... do either of those strike your fancy?
bootyhunter: (82)

[personal profile] bootyhunter 2022-06-30 07:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Duke Dandy does have a nice ring to it...

[On account of him having no money and therefore no opportunity to ever be a real Duke...]
kninja: (KNEEL(ΦωΦ)With this leash I thee--)

[personal profile] kninja 2022-06-30 11:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Well then, Your Grace. [Obi bows floridly.] Let it be so.
bootyhunter: (79)

1/2

bootyhunter: (54)

2/2

[personal profile] bootyhunter 2022-07-01 01:46 am (UTC)(link)
Heck yeah, baby!

[His blank expression turns into one of absolute delight.

For some reason, this seemingly meaningless gesture has given him a great deal of joy.
]

I am pretty graceful, aren't I.

[*That is also a statement of outright falsehood, Dandy is extremely clumsy and uncoordinated under a vast majority of circumstances.]
kninja: (BRAVE FACE(ΦωΦ)I'm fine!)

[personal profile] kninja 2022-07-01 10:53 pm (UTC)(link)
And modest. Don't forget that.

[Also, it shortens to DD, and I think that's boobtiful.]

You're a matching set now, Your Honor and Your Grace. Wear it well, Duke Dandy, sir!
