WEEK 3

Well, the tail end of Week 2 could have gone better. That's the first thing to note.

The second thing is... hang on, should it be Week 3 yet? You've all gone to sleep (or... not, in the case of anyone who doesn't), but when you wake up (and you do all wake up), the calendar and clock on your device informs you that it's Sunday. In-character, all characters explicitly have absolutely no memory of Saturday.

Your sense of time isn't the only thing that's changed - a new branch of the facility has opened and become active overnight, giving you new resources and places to investigate, should you so choose. There's also a new channel on the television, though whether it's an improvement over the last one is questionable.

Otherwise, though, things have mostly settled into normalcy again, or at close to normal as you can find in this place. How long that peace will last, though... that's becoming increasingly uncertain, moving forward.



SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY


[ ooc: Welcome to Week 3! Turn in last week's AC over here, and regains remain over this way! And for the sake of consistency, Angel's office hours remain over yonder! ]

...Yes, actually!

[look at you go jasper

alice is Very Proud]


Well, if you ever get bored of your inform, I bet you'd look amazing in your tuxedo. With your new bow tie, of course!

And dress up in his handouts? That he know what fits us is bad enough.

[ She doesn't really respond to the rest of it, but she does take the bow tie and the note off the door, feeling the material with her big ol' fingers. She may or may not just straight up poke one of the bows. ]

You really made one of these for everyone here. [ Why? ] ... How?

[ It's gotta be significantly more labor-intensive than just going "I want to be wearing a sick capelet so Rose will know how cool and above it all I am" and then shapeshifting one on, if less energy to maintain once accomplished. ]

Oh, come on. It's just clothes.

[She's so...weirdly delighted that Jasper even took her bowtie off the door. That's progress, baybee!]

Oh, I made them using the sewing machine. I'm actually quite a good seamstress. I just thought...it'd be nice. A pick-me-up.
hardnosed: (lapis i know it was you)

[ BUT ALICE, YOU CAN'T PICK HER UP, SHE'S TOOno, just kidding, she gets what she's going for. ]

The rest of them will probably like it. [ Or at least tolerate it! How angry any given thing makes Jasper is probably a good litmus test for how everyone else will react — if she's carefully neutral, as she is now, the rest of them will be appreciative. She doesn't get the impulse behind it, really, beyond the fact that people like Alice are wont to do inexplicable and generous things for no reason. ] That's the one with all the cloth, right?

[Alice nods.] That's exactly it.

[.....wait she has questions]

Who makes clothes for gems? Do you make them yourself, or have stores, or...?

Huh? [ Oh, right. Still holding the bow tie in one hand, she touches the juncture where her bodysuit meets her hulking shoulders. ] Our "clothes" are just part of our physical form. Normally I'd be able to adjust this at will with shapeshifting, but someone decided that posed too much of a threat.

[Alice's eyebrows rise high enough that they're hidden in her bangs.]

You can shapeshift? That's incredible.
hardnosed: (and when i pull out my jammy)

[personal profile] hardnosed 2020-05-02 04:31 pm (UTC)(link)
[ She shrugs, but one might get the sense that the lazy way she's brushing the statement off is half relishing the compliment. ]

It's standard capability for any well-made Gem. We're always projecting our forms — it's just a matter of changing what we project.

[personal profile] precognit 2020-05-06 11:13 pm (UTC)(link)
Wow. I've never met a being that could do anything like that.

[Alice tucks her hair behind her ear, eagerly.] You're kind of fascinating, you know that?

[ Okay, maybe she puffs up a little bit. ]

If you’re impressed by that, you should see what we’re really capable of.

[ realistically speaking if she had her powers back she’d be fighting Rose and yelling about it, but she can vaguely entertain the idea of Alice watching her walk through walls like the Kool-Aid man and seeing how big and strong and cool she is! ]
precognit: (02)

[personal profile] precognit 2020-05-08 05:14 am (UTC)(link)
Oh yeah?

[Alice can definitely see that Jasper is kind of eating this up, and it's such a nice change of pace from her being grumpy and rude all the time that she can't resist feeding into it a little bit.]

Like what?
