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! ]

So backsies count more than front, then?

Okay, weirdo.
sixthnonsense: (☄ don't diss the dreads!)

SAME 1/2

Well, yeah! 'cause it's the full...
sixthnonsense: (☄ worst. vision. ever.)

[Finally, he understands the trap he built and fell into himself.]

...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

[personal profile] bootyhunter 2022-07-12 06:15 pm (UTC)(link)
[Dandy takes this opportunity to approach his now psychic Pokemon bae with wide, curious eyes. If the other man will let him, he is going to wrestle that crystal ball out of his hands. Dandy is also incredibly clumsy, so is it actually safe? No, but it's an excuse to play the hand equivalent of footsie in public. #TeamHandy ftw!]

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.
sixthnonsense: (☄ this seems suspicious)

we were just about to be free from it

[Yeah, Dandy gets the ball for now! Though Hagakure watches him like a hawk as he fiddles with it. He really, truly does not want a round 2 of trying to put that thing back together.

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?
bootyhunter: (254)

[personal profile] bootyhunter 2022-07-12 07:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Hah?

[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.

sixthnonsense: (☄ did i just do something right?)

[personal profile] sixthnonsense 2022-07-12 07:50 pm (UTC)(link)
[Dandy almost successfully convinces Hagakure that there's nothing weird about the way he referred to his body...until that last bit. He blinks a few times, completely stunned.]

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!]

[personal profile] bootyhunter 2022-07-12 08:06 pm (UTC)(link)
It doesn't! Those machines are wack.

[Oh, he certainly does.

Look like one, that is.

It's true- Dandy has no DNA, even though he doesn't realize it.

sixthnonsense: (☄ the fates aren't looking good for you)

[personal profile] sixthnonsense 2022-07-12 08:20 pm (UTC)(link)
[...hmmmm. Hagakure's inclined to believe Dandy on this, but his conspiracy-loving ass is still going to latch onto this little factoid.

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.]
bootyhunter: (1008)

[personal profile] bootyhunter 2022-07-12 10:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Holy shit, you're right.

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.
