Week 5

[bathymetric]

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

Another week, another motive, another trial. Even without a literal time loop, it's easy to start to feel stuck in something of a rut. Though vandalism parties and the like can help shake the feeling somewhat, it's only natural to start going a little... stir-crazy, don't you think?

Fortunately for you, another week brings another new section of New Rapture to investigate. This one is the biggest yet! And look at that fun theme park. And a bar!

Seven of you are dead, but eighteen of you remain. What you do to try to escape is up to you, but at least following :)'s advice gets you coins for stuff, you know?



SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY

[ ooc: Welcome to the fifth 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! ]

That's awfully pedantic.

What Rosalind is trying to say... is yes. I suppose we are. In any case, we're certainly no friends of your mayor.

Or of this whole blighted ordeal.

[giddyundertaker]

Who would be? I don't see how anyone would be happy to partake in kidnapping people and making them stab each other.

[ And this is coming from the most morbid person here! ]

[hotpaprika]

[Jonathan wants to point out that Eleanor is openly working for Fontaine, and he assumes the other Founders at least tolerated some of his ideals to work with him, but he decides that not particularly relevant.]

Well that's wonderful! Are you here to rescue us from this horrid prison?

[mirrorofme]

That may be for you to decide. [The woman clears her throat. It's clear she's already tired of this.] There is work to be done.

I suppose that is all we had to say at the moment.

[giddyundertaker]

[ He playfully scoffs. ] Of course. Nothing comes for free, does it?

[ He likes these two. As vague as they are, it reminds him of himself. Perhaps they may be prone to similar habits in the way of selling information. ]

And what might you ask of us for a bit of assistance from you? Something material, or something else?

[hotpaprika]

[Jonathan, however, is quickly becoming impatient with these people. Why do they keep running into people who claim to be allies but then seem to do nothing to actually help?

Ugh, maybe he's just being pessimistic. He runs a hand through his hair and exhales.]

Yes, I would do just about anything to get rescued right about now.

[mirrorofme]

A price tends to be customary.

Not that we will be asking for any tribute for our endeavors - unlike your mayor.

It's difficult for one to want for something when one has virtually everything. Something I'm certain your Fontaine fails to understand.

A shame there's no want for an exit to this place. Might make your escape much easier.

[giddyundertaker]

Hm.

Perhaps that's because we found one that been kept inaccessible to us? I recall finding that bathysphere that had a control panel... Outfitted with locks?

[ He turns to face Jonathan for a moment. ]

Unless you refer to some alternate means of escape.

[hotpaprika]

[He nods in agreement, but flicker of excitement crosses his face.]

Do you have one? We're getting quite desperate for an escape!

[mirrorofme]

[The two share a passing glance.]

a bathysphere would prove an efficient means of egress from an underwater city.

Our method, on the other hand, requires a tad bit more... finesse.

As I assume neither of you are accustomed to quantum physics - a brief lesson.

[mirrorofme]

Nothing happens-

Until something-

[The lights above you flicker.]

Moves.

[And in that flicker, suddenly, two adults vanish - quite literally - before your eyes.]
