Week 4

[bathymetric]

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

Sunday arrives ahead of schedule again, bringing with it the creeping dread that this is just how this is going to go. Welcome to the murdergame cycle.

At least there's another section of the city available to you! This one even has some things to do without you having to make your own fun. Which also means there's more to find about this place.

There's still over 20 of you alive... maybe that's something to celebrate? It could be worse! But... at least one of you is an attempted killer, apparently. Either way, better keep talking if you want regains!



SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY

[ ooc: Welcome to the fourth 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! ]

Arcade

[hotpaprika]

[Jonathan had been wandering around the arcade in absolute wonderment. He had never seen anything like this before and he was practically overwhelmed by the lights and sounds. But at the same time it felt thrilling to be here, there was something enticing about this whole place that made him excited just to be there.

When Hagakure calls out to him, however, he looks absolutely shocked.]

Oh, you can play them? I simply thought they were screens like the ones Fontaine talks to us through!

[...]

How... could you please tell me how to play?

[sixthnonsense]

[Never in his life would Hagakure have imagined that he would somehow get the opportunity to teach a Victorian man how to play video games. He is absolutely up to the challenge, however!

He gives Jonathan a supportive pat on the shoulder.]

It'd be my pleasure, Jonny! Did any of 'em stick out to you in particular? We can start with that.

[hotpaprika]

[He nods once, smilingly lightly, as he looks around, before a game catches his eye.]

This game looks quite fascinating!

[He points to a nearby cabinet that's playing one of those cheesy FMV light shooter games. This one is cowboy themed!]

I am aware that the guns aren't real, but I you can truly play with something like this?

[sixthnonsense]

[Hagakure laughs as he watches the cowboy shoot 'em up in the FMV.]

Ha! That's like, as American as they come, huh?

[Now I'm sitting here considering Hagakure and Jonathan's perceptions of America, haha.

Anyway, he picks up one of the guns.]

Yeah! It's got to do with the light that comes outta the barrel of the gun. When you pull the trigger, it transfers a signal to the spot on the screen that you shot at. If there's a guy to shoot there, then the game picks up on it! Pretty sweet, huh?

[Surprisingly, Hagakure knows a decent amount about tech. Who would have guessed.]
