WEEK 1

[bathymetric]

Happy New Year! ... You're still here. Looks like The Captain wasn't lying when he said the murdering is now up to you. That, or you can all live here on your own. Regardless, it's time to settle in. The days start passing much less eventfully after that first one, and, well... on it goes, huh?

There might not be a whole cruise ship to explore just yet, but there are a variety of amenities available to all of you! Who ever heard of a boring cruise ship, anyway? As the week goes on, you might even start to see some of those strange coins appear for you!

Better buckle down and get to know your fellow passengers, though, if you want to stand a chance of weathering this storm.



MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY
FRIDAY | SATURDAY

[ ooc: Welcome to peace week! Feel free to mingle (and investigate, if you like) to your hearts' content! Please ensure all investigation toplevels are marked accordingly, and otherwise enjoy! If you wish to talk to The Captain or Davy Jones, look here for the former and here for the latter! ]

[scythegun]

Fascinating... And certainly agreed! The Captain certainly is trying to make this a nightmare for us, he deserves one of his own.

[Freyja would probably have a grand time coming up with a nightmare for him, huh...]

Oh? What is your other form like?

[dokkalfheimr]

[...]

Maybe you'll get to see it someday.

[scythegun]

[Terrifying, got it!!]

I would be interested in that, ja!

[dokkalfheimr]

I would appreciate not being killed once you have.

[scythegun]

Ah, a form I might consider a monster, then...?

[That's said more to himself than anything, but he shakes his head once that's out there.]

There's no need to worry, I promise I wouldn't fight you. The monsters we face aren't capable of speech, anyway.

[dokkalfheimr]

[...uh]

Is that how you determine whether a given creature is a person or not?

[scythegun]

No, it's a bit more complicated than that. Monsters are... Well, they're like far more aggressive animals, if that makes sense?

[dokkalfheimr]

It does, I think. Though that begs the question of what the difference is between monsters and animals.

[scythegun]

The aggressiveness and strength, primarily. Even animals that are more aggressive can be fended off even by those without blastia; monsters are much stronger and they will always attack. Animals can also remain within barriers with no issues, though I couldn't tell you how exactly that works.

[dokkalfheimr]

I see.

[...It sounds a little as though you've never encountered a bull in your life but the rest of that is fair.]

I think it likely that you would consider what I can become to be a monster, though I do still use magic as opposed to brute strength.

[scythegun]

[please have mercy on me i don't know what is an animal and what is a monster in vesperia look at the horses]

Fascinating... Again, you have my word I wouldn't hurt you!

[dokkalfheimr]

[okay but those aren't horses.]

And I suppose we'll see by the end of all this whether your word is good for anything.

[scythegun]

[i can't believe i'm on the other side of the Horse Debate]

Ja, I'm sure we will.

[dokkalfheimr]

At least try to refrain from murdering anyone until Saturday. Filbo is obtaining confetti for you, and I would hate for his efforts to go to waste.

[scythegun]

He is such a hard worker, isn't he? I'm glad he's helping you out, I'm sure your party will be a rousing success! Don't worry, I have no plans on murdering anyone before then; that would be a bit of a mood-killer.

[dokkalfheimr]

I'm expecting someone to try before then, if not at the gathering itself.

[scythegun]

It certainly would be odd if everyone managed to behave themselves that long, but it isn't out of the question, I suppose. Hopefully no one ruins your party, though!

[dokkalfheimr]

I should hope not. Though Zero seems like the pointlessly dramatic sort who would try to kill someone in front of a room full of people and get away with it.

[scythegun]

[Oh my god?? Well, that gets him to laugh.]

He really does, doesn't he? If anyone would try something that pointlessly dramatic, it would be him. We do have some overdramatic people here, but that specific brand of over-the-top and crazy seems perfectly fitting for him!

[dokkalfheimr]

[IT'S TRUE THOUGH...]

My thoughts exactly. I have a hard time seeing the others make an attempt in that sort of way, but...

[scythegun]

Ja, you never know! Perhaps we'll be surprised!
