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! ]

[ Hey, it’s better than her suggesting they drop one of the vending machines in the water! ]

If you mean whether I’m gonna kill someone or not, then I haven’t decided. It seems like kind of a chore to have to go through all that, you know~?

[leaveittomother]

[It's okay, she's just thinking of the poor monster.]

I agree. It must be so much more convenient having someone on the ship who'd jump for the chance to take the fall.

[Said with the most angelic smile.]

[conceivesfrenzy]

[ She giggles. ]

It really is. It certainly takes quite the load off my shoulders, to be sure. Compared to the other things I’ve made him do, killing one person would be pretty inconsequential.

[ is it really making him do those things if he was willing...? eh, whatever. ]

[leaveittomother]

[She gives a giggle of her own. She might not know the details but using people who think they love you wasn't something new.]

Ah, so that's how it is. I thought it might be. People do many cruel things for love... though, I doubt you share the same feelings.

[She's similar to other people Reika knew. It was almost refreshing.]

I'd say that I feel sorry for him but we both know I'd be lying.

[ A look of surprise flashes across Alice’s face for a brief moment. She was half expecting to get admonished for saying that, somehow, but… it’s actually super refreshing not to? ]

Oh, even if you were, there’s no reason to feel sorry at all. He knows what he’s in for when he decides to hang off me like he does. If he’s willing to sell his soul and not look back just because I say to, then who am I to not take full advantage of that? I certainly don’t care about his feelings on the matter.

[leaveittomother]

[The problem is that to admonish someone means you have to think they're doing something wrong. Is Alice doing something wrong? By social standards, incredibly but that was the way of the world. Decus seemed to realize in some form yet he had openly threatened her about Alice.

That means it wasn't Reika's business to judge.]

Well, as long as he knows it. There always is a chance that you won't get back what you give, after all.

[A pause.] The general 'you', I mean. It's none of my business.

[conceivesfrenzy]

I figured. I have no intention in leading anyone to believe otherwise.

[ She hums, glancing at Reika. ]

What about you? Obviously you don’t have the advantage that I do, but that doesn’t make it any less difficult to just sit here and do nothing.

[leaveittomother]

Well, that's good.

[She shrugs. She's good at waiting.]

What can I say? I'm a mother, that means I have a great deal of patience. Something is bound to happen--I just have to plan for it.
