unknownseas | WEEK 4

Another trial, another week, and still you're probably running lower on answers than you'd like. And on people - you lost three since last Sunday. By the end of this week, you'll have been here for nearly a full month, yet still the days crawl on.

You wake up Sunday, again with no memory of Saturday, but this time with a simple message on your devices: You may resume requesting items, if you like. Enjoy. Guess it really was just a stealth motive after all, but at least it's being communicated that it's over! That's something, at least.

And when you leave your rooms on Sunday, there's another new area to explore! This one is... certainly more ambitious in its construction than the last one, to say the least. But hey, you have a pretty neat place to host parties, if you feel so inclined! That's... fun...

Hey, you gotta find the fun in situations like this where you can! Silver linings, right?

SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY

[ ooc: Welcome to Week 4! Remember to turn in AC here, threads for regain coins here, and if you feel so inclined you can visit Angel's office hours over here! ]

This was in the pool.

[ Jasper produces the following scrap of paper, now warped into waves from drying out, and she passes it around. ]

The material looks like it came from the art room. The text... half of it isn't even legible, but it reads like an invitation to me.

...What kid made an arts-and-crafts project?

Who says they were one? When there's no other option, you use whatever tools are available.

[ it's fucking glitter pen, jasper ]

...Moooost people don't...the glitter pen is a time-honored young child and-slash-or excitable teenager aesthetic choice.

[ did you use lisa frill products as a young duck della ]

How old?

[ Anna is technically the youngest one here, and while she could be called excitable, it's in a very different way than Della seems to mean. ]

Like thirteen with braces old. Oh you don't know what braces are never mind that part.

[ Once she's got the paper, she'll... write that down in her own notepad. Guess who's going to lose a lot of sleep trying to figure this out!! ]

It sounds like one to me, too... to the bar, it seems.

Right. And then they say they have... something and liquid. Probably the same ethanol garbage that's there now.

[ When Zelos gets a hold of it, he reads it over a couple times before unfortunately opening his mouth: ]

... I think I've got an idea as to what it says. [ He flips it around and points towards the first line. ] This definitely says "If you want to bone, come to the bar tonight," right?

[SIGH.]

"If you don't want to be alone tonight, come to the bar tonight. We'll have snacks and liquor."

Probably.

...Thank you, Therion.

... Oh! So it does. Astute as always, Therion.

Listen, you pea-brained pervert. It sounds like this was from a previous set. One of those gatherings after a trial. We knew we weren't the first to be brought, but it sounds like we weren't the first to be in a full version of this... exercise, either.

...

[Therion's not astute enough to figure out whether or not Zelos is making fun of him, so he says nothing.]

So... it's an invite?

Didn't you guys do the same thing a week ago? After we killed Lif?

To something like the gatherings that keep happening after the trials. We've been talking about "if" this happened before, haven't we? If this is what it looks like, there's no question anymore.
