Welcome.

You last remember feeling safe.

You don't know what caused that response, now that you think about it; you can't remember what you were doing before the warm, comfortable feeling came over you, a sensation somewhere between relief and the light contentment that comes with the knowledge that you're safe enough to sleep and god, are you ready to. It feels like you may have been sleeping for a while before this, even; your limbs are heavy in the memory, and you recall how difficult it was to open your eyes.

Turning your head is likewise difficult, it feels kind of like it's full of sand. Weighted-down by sleep. It's so much easier to remain still, and so you do, and before you haze out again you can vaguely hear a voice.

It's no one you recognize, and it sounds strange and vaguely distorted as you start to drift off again.

"Everything'll be fine."

There isn't an answer that you can hear; the voice speaks once more.

"...you ready?"

You don't remember what you wanted to say to that. Always, maybe. Or Ready for what? Or perhaps What's happened to me?

But none of it matters, because consciousness slips away from you too quickly for you to respond.

---

You wake up some time later; the comfortable, safe feeling from earlier certainly isn't dampened any by the bed you wake up in. Whether you like it soft as a cloud or firm enough to support the most finicky of spines, the bed you're in is nice, and it's pretty much exactly what you've been looking for in a mattress.

Shame the rest of the room is probably going to be a bit jarring when you wake up properly.

The room you're in is completely unfamiliar, all concrete and steel and almost nothing that makes it yours - but there's a trunk near the bed and there's what looks like a smartphone sitting on the trunk, and you might want to grab that before you leave the room. Trying to text or call out won't do anything for the time being, unfortunately, but it's something. A lifeline, maybe.

If you're looking to see if anyone is here with you, maybe you can find someone as you wander through the main corridor; after all, there are a few places to explore here, even if the bulk of the place is pretty much a straight shot down the center. If you're looking to gather, the dining hall is probably the best place for it, as it's large enough to accommodate all of you.

Wherever you choose to go, however, there are a set of rules posted in every room; the far wall of the dining hall, across from the entrances, also has a bulletin board with twenty-seven pictures, along with some...interesting information, posted on it. The board is large enough for all of you to look at it, but you might not want to try to get at anything posted there; just like the rules, there's glass in front of it, and it's looking to be extremely shatterproof.

Sorry about that.

There's one more thing you'll notice on your wanderings through the corridor – there are no windows, and there are no doors that can possibly lead outside.

Looks like you're trapped. Might as well get to know those that are here with you.

Bulletin Board

Would say 'someone whose name you don't know, like that grocer who spilled all your food once', but I feel like anyone important enough to be listed twice is someone you'd probably know the name of.

[Cherryblod gives the profiles another look-see.] Mine seems accurate enough.

[...Awesome hair color aside, you look a little weird. Why do you have a shrimp tail????]

Uh, yeah, I guess so? But I've never heard that name before, so...

[...Wait hang on.]

Are you seriously over five hundred years old?
cherryblooded: (smile / it's doloz in the background)

[personal profile] cherryblooded 2016-02-28 07:48 am (UTC)(link)
[You can't just ask people why they have shrimp tails - or, well, you can, if you want.]

I am. My daughter's turning a hundred eighty next year.

[They don't look all that dissimilar in age, come to think of it.]
blastiarm: (HEH ❖ this knife is going in your throat)

[personal profile] blastiarm 2016-02-28 07:52 am (UTC)(link)
...Whoa. So uh, what are you? Are you some kind of monster?

[ZAGI DON'T BE FUCKING RUDE]
cherryblooded: (smile / very thin)

[personal profile] cherryblooded 2016-02-28 07:54 am (UTC)(link)
[Wow, definitely rude.]

A shrimp, actually.
blastiarm: (WHATEVER ❖ but i could be fighting)

[personal profile] blastiarm 2016-02-28 08:00 am (UTC)(link)
A... shrimp. I'm pretty sure shrimp don't look sort of like humans.

[SIGH he gives up. This place is weird. No one knows about blastia and some people are apparently really old and sure, why not. You can be a shrimp person.]

So is your daughter a shrimp too?
cherryblooded: (smile / gradient)

[personal profile] cherryblooded 2016-02-28 08:01 am (UTC)(link)
[It's better if you just accept everything that anyone says.]

She's a lobster, like my wife.
blastiarm: (HESITANT ❖ not according to keikaku)

[personal profile] blastiarm 2016-02-28 08:05 am (UTC)(link)
Oh. Okay.

[when did his life get so weird]

Is everyone like you guys? Are there fish people? Clam people?
cherryblooded: (smile / peachy)

[personal profile] cherryblooded 2016-02-28 03:27 pm (UTC)(link)
[Probably when he woke up here.]

Not everyone is like us - I've met some witches, and some demons, none of whom could be said to be 'animal people' - but there are fish and clams, yes.
blastiarm: (UNSURE ❖ why does the dog have my moves)

[personal profile] blastiarm 2016-02-28 05:27 pm (UTC)(link)
...Huh. That sounds... really weird.

[This is still throwing him pretty badly, but getting stuck on it won't help any so he'll just accept that this is what his life has become and move on.]

So I'm guessing you have no idea how you got here or why you're here.
cherryblooded: (calm / wait what)

[personal profile] cherryblooded 2016-02-28 06:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Not a clue, sorry. Last thing I remember is going to bed with my wife.
blastiarm: (HESITANT ❖ not according to keikaku)

[personal profile] blastiarm 2016-02-28 06:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Would it have been possible for someone to kidnap you from there?
cherryblooded: (calm / concerned)

[personal profile] cherryblooded 2016-02-28 06:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Doubt it. Even if someone broke into our house, Doloz is a light sleeper, and not the sort of woman you want to tangle with. Her claws are bigger than most people.

I'm not half bad myself, but that's when I'm awake.

[He still feels weirdly sluggish.]
blastiarm: (AWAY ❖ his hair is naturally pink okay)

[personal profile] blastiarm 2016-02-28 06:27 pm (UTC)(link)
[Claws...]

Huh, yeah, I do feel kinda out of it too. But they did some stuff to me, so that's not surprising.

[zagi you know you can't just say that without an explanation, right-- no, apparently not.]
cherryblooded: (calm / frown)

[personal profile] cherryblooded 2016-02-28 06:30 pm (UTC)(link)
[Lobster.]

What kind of stuff? I've heard haircuts, so far, but that's about it for obvious changes.
blastiarm: (HEH ❖ this knife is going in your throat)

[personal profile] blastiarm 2016-02-28 06:33 pm (UTC)(link)
They took off my arm.

[He holds up his metal left arm in explanation. Because, you know, that's just something you can spring on people, zagi what the fuck.]
cherryblooded: (sweat / now wait)

[personal profile] cherryblooded 2016-02-28 06:34 pm (UTC)(link)
...Well that's drastic. Sorry to hear that.

[What exactly do you say to hearing that about a stranger anyway.]
blastiarm: (RELAXED ❖ follow you until you love me)

[personal profile] blastiarm 2016-02-28 06:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I'm sure it was super tragic or something. I can't believe they'd do something like that while I was unconscious-- actually, yeah, I can. If I was awake I would've taken out all of them.

[That doesn't seem to be bragging, he states it like it's a fact.]
cherryblooded: (smile / ho ho)

[personal profile] cherryblooded 2016-02-28 06:38 pm (UTC)(link)
I'll be sure to let you have first go at them when we get a chance, then. For the moment it seems you have the most right to.

[Cherryblod believes him, so that's another good reason to let him beat the hell out of them first.]
blastiarm: (Default)

[personal profile] blastiarm 2016-02-28 06:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Heh, I like you.

[CONGRATS, CHERRYBLOD, YOU'VE GOTTEN ON THE ASSASSIN'S GOOD SIDE.]

I've got a lot of questions for them about this thing too. So that's something to look forward to.

[And sadly enough, this is the most exciting thing that's happened to him in awhile.

...Well, okay, that battle he was in the middle of was pretty exciting, but this is new and different!!]
cherryblooded: (smile / it's doloz in the background)

[personal profile] cherryblooded 2016-02-28 06:44 pm (UTC)(link)
[What, hair grows back, arms don't. Simple logic, but he's not going to say no if it gets Zagi to like them.

This is a good start to his friendships.]


Same here, but I could ask most of them after they've been punched in the head a few times.
blastiarm: (SMUG ❖ man you all suck)

[personal profile] blastiarm 2016-02-28 07:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Sounds like a good compromise!

[AS LONG AS HE GETS TO KILL THEM!!!]
cherryblooded: (smile / double pistols and a wink)

[personal profile] cherryblooded 2016-02-28 07:19 pm (UTC)(link)
[That can happen.]

Pleasure working with you, Zagi.
blastiarm: (LEER ❖ murdergames you say??)

[personal profile] blastiarm 2016-02-28 07:25 pm (UTC)(link)
I normally don't work with anyone, so consider yourself lucky!

[If his first time partnering up with someone is a shrimp person then he is totally here for this, this is new and exciting and totally crazy!!]
cherryblooded: (smile / pleasant)

[personal profile] cherryblooded 2016-02-28 07:28 pm (UTC)(link)
I'll be sure to.

[He will try not to disappoint and be an exemplary member of the shrimp race.]

What is Leviathan's Claw, anyway? If I can ask.
