unknownseas | WEEK 1

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! ]

[He's making his way through the oceanology sections now. It's exactly as boring as you'd think!!]

You won't buy that it's just because I want to spend time with you?

Of course not.

[...freyja.]

How cold...

[But he only looks put out for a moment before laughing and waving a hand.]

You are an interesting person and I like talking to you, and this is certainly more entertaining than reading! Is that better?

I find myself somewhat more inclined to believe that, yes.

[God help us she's found the drink shakers. Why stir everything when you can potentially do this. She's gonna be looking for stuff to put in it.]

[Ooh, have fun with those, hopefully whatever you come up with will be a little less disgustingly sweet!]

Good~ What are you thinking for the next one?

I haven't decided yet. The selection is somewhat sad, and I'm unused to things humans create as these things go.

[So yeah.]

We have our own creations, where I came from. And water, naturally.

Ja, of course. What sorts of creations do you all have, though?

Our lands produce different plants than yours, that bear different fruits and flowers. We also usually imbue them with magic before consumption, resulting in whatever effect we desire.

Everything here tastes...strangely less real, by comparison.

[the fairies have discovered high fructose corn syrup and aspartame. shit's gross.]

[oh my GOD]

Well, to be fair, the food here is rather... terrible.

[SHE NEVER WANTS TO TRY SPRITE AGAIN, YEAGER.]

I've discovered that most of the food here isn't kind to me in the least, yes.

[freyja suffers so much...]

At least there's the vending machines! Though they really aren't much of an upgrade.

[please give us a proper kitchen whenever we unlock more boat..........]

Most of the things in there are edible, though not anything I would like to eat much of.

[Humans have no standards???]

[Nodding!]

Agreed, but it is nice that they're consistently stocked!

I suppose...

[There is so much goddamn juice back here? And weird syrupy shit.]

You probably wouldn't care much for anything we create in our realms. Or perhaps you would; we tend to keep it away from the mortals, for the most part.

Oh? Is that because there aren't usually many mortals in your realms to try it?

Something like that.

[...]

Most who come to our realms directly are children, besides. They dream and believe far more easily than adults do.

Oh, yes, that makes sense! Do you often receive them as visitors?

Oh, yes, certainly. Though they're more likely to find their way to Ljósálfheimr; as it should be, really.

[Like, even outside of the implications, can you just imagine poor Plumeria being confronted with children.]

[Plumeria deserves something, but being pestered nonstop by children is probably not it.]

That would be... The realm of dreams, I'm assuming?

[Kids have nightmares frequently, sure, but they're also far more likely to have vivid dreams, so that sounds like the far better option here?? Please don't give the babies nightmares.]

Yes. I resided there myself, during better days.

Did something happen?

Yes.

[...That's it, that's all you get.]

Not the sort of thing you want to discuss, I take it? I won't pry.

[Sometimes it be like that.]

Maybe someday. But not today.

[She's had a lot of conversations about that sort of thing lately. She's sort of conversed out?]

That's understandable.

[humans will always be exactly this obnoxiously curious, rip fairies....]

I do appreciate hearing more about your realms; it's so vastly different from anything I've experienced!
