WEEK 4

[bathymetric]

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! ]

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

[emberserker]

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.

[nothingcanstop]

...That's a good point. We don't.

[ Della's glancing at Anna and looking down--at one of her notes.

Angel doesn't know of any other experiments he's run like this
But we can't rule them out considering

Huh. ]

[emberserker]

We'll need to search, then. [She touches her arm and sighs.] At least something's turned up.

[nothingcanstop]

Doing a deep search of the facility's helped so far... Maybe I'll go back through other rooms. Who knows if these things have been here the whole time, or... [ Something occurs to her. She stops and starts tapping with her pencil again.

If someone on staff put the notes around the facility ]

[emberserker]

We don't know yet. All we know is they're evidence that this place was used before, or at least parts of it were.

[nothingcanstop]

...So I wonder what it was built for. If it was...you know, this or something else. Like... Who would put a water park in an underwater facility?

[emberserker]

Eccentrics with more money than priorities. Maybe this is how he ended up beholden to his superiors. He's in debt for his stupid pursuits.

[nothingcanstop]

Huh... That's as good a theory as any. Wonder if he did it just because he could.

[emberserker]

Or he thought it'd be amusing to see us react to all that nonsense.

[nothingcanstop]

...Us meaning whoever he grabbed. Because this thing had to have built awhile ago, right?

[emberserker]

It's a modular facility, isn't it? And some of the rooms look more used than others.

[nothingcanstop]

The equipment in the workshop, for one... I just... Unless there's something ritualistic or magic going on here, I don't think he could be building these...areas, week-by-week.

[pimpplan]

Pea-brained?!

[emberserker]

[not dignifying that with a response]

[bolderfell]

...

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