Week 4
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! ]

DUDE!!! What in the hell?!
[He is rushing over... Also to take a look at that where this idiot has stabbed himself in the arm. Sorry Hagakure, he is grabbing and yanking that limb in front of his own face-]
You don't know if this stuff's got any side effects! What if you start bein' able to read minds, and then the next thing ya know, your arm's fallin' off! Or even worse, it straight up disappears!!!
[if it sounds like he's had experience with ridiculous shit like this
that would be a correct assumption]
And then, poof! You'll be No-Hands Boy.
[In all fairness, Dandy has encountered many an alien without the limbs that he himself possesses! This is not at all meant to be a rude comment to anyone with any different abilities or body mechanics, it is more... Just him being a buffoon and panicking.]
And if you lose the right one, say goodbye to your best friend, pal!
cw mild body horror
[He has been yanked!! But he doesn't put up a fight- take a look, Dandy! His arm looks completely fine...aside from the shifting veins underneath the skin as the plasmid works its way through his system. That's probably fine.
What's definitely not fine is Hagakure though. Not after Dandy puts those worrying thoughts in his head. Truly his impulsive actions are going to be the death of him.]
D-Don't say that after I've already gone and done it! [THAT'S YOUR OWN FAULT, IDIOT.] I feel fine! I swear!!
cw: my yaoi hands slipped; some gross body imagery
YOU SHOULDA THOUGHT ABOUT THAT BEFORE YOU WENT AND STABBED YOURSELF IN THE ARM, IDIOT!
[Says the king of bad decisions?! Truly he has no right to talk. Dandy is going to worriedly going to eyeball that vein-shiftyness! He doesn't like it...
Without thinking much of it, or thinking much at all really, he's going to trace his hand over the unopened skin, wherever there's movement. Please note that anyone can see this! This homoerotic foolishness is occurring right there out in the open.]
God! You're such a dolt.
[He says that, very rudely, although it's obvious to everyone with eyes and ears that he is worried.]
Before you leave your friggin' suite in the morning, remember to take your brain outta the freezer and shove it back inside your thick-ass skull!
no subject
[He can't refute any of this and he knows it, so instead he just inwardly panics and prays he didn't just make a fucking horrible mistake like he usually does.
Fortunately, his stupidity...has paid off. He's legitimately fine, at least for the time being. As Dandy puts his finger sagainst the shifting veins, they eventually settle down. There's definitely something new there—a vague pulsing of power—but nothing truly alarming.]
Fine, fine, I'll be more careful next time. Can I at least...see if it works?
cw: nsfw sighs
This is the price I pay for the booty, isn't it.
[That was uttered to himself, and only himself!!! rip]
...Fine.
Just don't go hittin' yourself with anything. You've got such bad aim!
I'll stand here.
[He steps back just about a foot. Dandy, that is not enough room.]
no subject
[In start contrast to Dandy's frustration, Hagakure looks ecstatic by the prospects of his new power, potential side effects be damned. It's very much a "Someone will die...OF FUN!!!" situation, just hopefully without death.
Hagakure pulls his crystal ball out of his pocket and holds it in his left hand. He holds out his right hand and focuses very hard... As he does, the tips of his fingers begin to glow purple along with the veins that Dandy had felt shift. The crystal ball also begins to glow. Shortly after, it slowly rises into the air!]
Yoooooo!!! Dee, look! I'm doing it!!
[Hagakure really shouldn't be yelling and breaking concentration like this--!! Thankfully, he doesn't lose his control over the ball and we don't have more shattered glass to deal with.]
no subject
Oh, are you now?!
YOUR FLY’S OPEN, BROTHER!
[Weird thing to call a guy you just fucked, but okay!]
1/2
[OH FUCK THERE GOES HIS CRYSTAL BALL-- With the most cartoonish reflexes, Hagakure manages to safely catch the ball after juggling it around for like thirty seconds.
He breathes out a sigh of relief, then goes to check his fly...]
no subject
Seriously, Dee? Stop messin' with me! My ball coulda gotten broke again and I just fixed it!
no subject
[...Look who is chuckling now.]
I was gonna fix it for you! Don'tcha trust me?
[What he was planning to do was pull it down, then up again, then down again! In front of all these people. Because he is a menace.]
no subject
Not right now I don't. S'like you wanted me to drop my ball or something!
nsfw, cursed, horrible, once again god has damned me
But then you'd be busted up again, baby! Don'tcha remember last the time that happened?
[Dandy skulks over, sort of like in the series opening. You know, because his posture can never be good!
His plan to stop the weird power bullshit is working, this is fun.]
Don't get it twisted, airhead.
I wanna hold yours instead.
LETS OUT THE BIGGEST FUCKING SIGH
[...and then he almost drops the fucking ball again anyway out of embarrassment. HE SHOULDN'T EVEN BE SURPRISED AND YET--
After sputtering for a second, he whispers:]
Later, okay? They're all yours later.
still nsfw still bad
STILL...NSFW...
Yeah, well...! It was the front door, so that doesn't count!
:/ I swear this bc will end next tag I promise
Okay, weirdo.
SAME 1/2
no subject
...deal...
[Hey, the floor looks real interesting right now! Time to stop talking and stare at it!]
SLAPS NSFW WARNING ON THIS WHOLE THREAD, ALSO MONSTERFUCKING
For the two of us, maybe.
[Dandy doesn't say anything about it, even though he agrees. There's definitely quite a bit of vulnerability that comes with lying on your back.]
But if you're hookin' up intergalactically, it's different depending on who's doin' who! Turns out there's all kindsa ways to feel groovy. Some of 'em are pretty out there, I've gotta admit. Then again, my dangly bits look human, so! That's my point of reference.
[And hopefully think about that and not these spooky scary powers... But we all know how that turns out.]
You've just gotta open your mind to all the possibilities, baby.
we were just about to be free from it
Dandy successfully pulls his mind off of it for the time being with the idea that...yeah, there are tons of aliens out there with all kinds of orifices. He doesn't get embarrassed by the idea, more...intrigued.]
Huh, that's a good point. I bet to a lot of 'em, us humans are built pretty simple.
[He never would've considered! It's not like it's possible to actually meet aliens where he's from. They...have to meet you, really, and the one aliens he did meet were way more interested in his burger.
One little detail about all of this sticks out, though.]
Whaddya mean your dangly bits look human?
no subject
[Dandy blinks at that, completely obtuse to why that would sound alarming or strange! It's like he didn't really think about it. Spooky.]
Well, I mean that human dangly bits look... Like human dangly bits?
Sorry man, I think I lost ya.
[He pauses for a second.]
Oh! Oh, so there are a lots of races that look kinda like ours, even in faraway galaxies? Some of 'em have even got matchin' sets of locks n' keys to us, if you catch my drift. But since they don't hail from Earth or nothin' it wouldn't be right to call them human, per se.
Most of 'em have got different DNA signatures. Then again, those machines tend to break real easy. Those dumb buckets of bolts are always coming back with readings suggestin' that I don't have any.
And that'd be nuts! Like, not cool, robo-bro! I'm right frickin' here.
no subject
No DNA? How does that even work??
[Like it's also super interesting, but he never would've guessed?? Dandy just looks like a regular human to him!]
no subject
[Oh, he certainly does.
Look like one, that is.
It's true- Dandy has no DNA, even though he doesn't realize it.]
no subject
He'll outwardly try to be reassuring!!]
Maybe it's just from you bein' in space for so long? I dunno, there's probably some weird shit you're bein' exposed to that messes with human DNA specifically.
[Though that...doesn't bode so well if he ever wants to go to space, huh.]
no subject
It's probably all the warping I do for work.
[Oh! It's all coming together now... Except, while that is actually a great explanation, unfortunately Hagakure's suspicions are correct.]
That stuff messes with the space-time continuum. I've probably picked up all sorts of radiation signatures along the way, and I'm an alien hunter, so... I warp a hell of a lot more than most people.
