WEEK 1.

[trustharder]

WEEK 1 As much as this sounds like a bad joke all around, it looks like one thing is being played completely straight: you're not going anywhere. After the Kingmaker has answered your questions (or, well, perhaps it's more accurate to say he didn't answer them, at least as far as most of those little Q&A sessions went), you'll be left up to your own devices – feel free to continue exploring and getting to know your fellow Survivors for the next several days. Should you want to eat something you're free to use the kitchen before 10PM, but after that the doors will be locked and no amount of fussing with the locks or trying to break them down will get them to budge. And no, the robot cannot punch them in for you. Notably, though, starting bright and early on Monday morning (or maybe just early, since there aren't any windows) you'll be treated to the most unholy damn noise – it's very definitely an electric siren of some sort, probably some kind of klaxon, blaring out over the PA system. It only blasts once, but really, for something that loud, once is enough. This will happen every morning at 7AM and again in the evenings at 10PM. You'll be able to hear it no matter what room you're in. There isn't any punishment for sleeping through it, but you don't want to waste the day in bed, now do you? (Unless you were out exploring all last night. In which case, go back to bed, damn.) SURVIVORS REMAINING: 27

MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY
[OOC: Welcome to week one of Trustfell! Feel free to make as many top levels as you'd like and tag out to other characters! This post is for all of your interactions this week... at least until the weekend. Don't forget to save those threads for coins and the activity check!

There are also two new posts for the sake of contacting the jerk who's keeping you here, to be used at your leisure!]

[It is death o'clock. Caren is tired. Caren is also paranoid enough to leave her door open enough to try and hear any potential murders in progress, although that's sure to stop after this racket Zagi's making. She groans, drags herself out of bed, and pokes her head out carefully.

And then follows after on her own roller slippers like a cheetah out for blood, or at least peace and quiet.]

Get back here!

[blastiarm]

[OH NO

CAREN NO

and by that he really means CAREN YES]

Catch me if you can, sucker!

[AND OFF HE GOES AGAIN oh my god is this really what our lives have become]

[lackinginfaith]

[Well, at least she's a princess and a twig and probably can't catch u-- oh, wait, there she goes, with no regard for public safety.]

People are trying to sleep!

[blastiarm]

You're not helping with that, are you?

[INTO THE DINING ROOM TIME TO USE THE TABLES TO HIS ADVANTAGE]

[lackinginfaith]

[WHOOSH HERE WE GO]

It's different if I'm chasing you!

[blastiarm]

So what are you gonna do if you catch me? Not that you will!

[SLIDES ACROSS A TABLE BECAUSE WHY THE FUCK NOT

KEEPS SKATING!!!]

[lackinginfaith]

Shut you up so people can sleep!

[SHE'S JUST GONNA GO DOWN THE AISLE AND TRY TO CUT YOU OFF]

[blastiarm]

Hah! You wish--

[NAILS THE LANDING PERFECTLY, CATCHES THE END OF HIS CAPE UNDERNEATH THE WHEELS

LANDS FLAT ON HIS ASS

well, you caught him???]

[lackinginfaith]

[Caren skates over to him, brakes in front, and leans over, frowning.]

Looks like I got what I wished for. What's your problem, anyway?

[blastiarm]

...Ugh. I never lose.

[DRAMATIC SIGH

but he'll stay seated on the floor, moving to kick the slippers off and cross his legs so he's settled.]

My problem? I don't have one. I figured I'd try these things out at night when everyone's asleep. The rooms are weird and you can't hear anything outside of them, so I figured it'd be fine. Not my fault you heard me.

[lackinginfaith]

[sigh] You know, when people only care about having fun, it's harder on them when something happens.

[blastiarm]

What do you mean by that?

[lackinginfaith]

I mean somebody's probably going to get murdered one of these days. People do want to go home, after all.

[blastiarm]

Oh, that? Heh, you don't have to worry about me. I can handle myself. But yeah, it's definitely a possibility that someone's gonna snap and kill someone else.

[lackinginfaith]

We haven't broken out of here yet. It's been days. People are going to give up eventually, as much as nobody wants it to happen.

[blastiarm]

Hey, miss pessimistic, I get where you're coming from. Worrying about it makes sense. But it's not gonna get us out of here any faster and if anything, you're gonna start looking suspicious if someone turns up dead.

All we can really do right now is question the Kingmaker and wait.

[lackinginfaith]

Suspicious just because I don't want to let fun get in the way of actually getting out of here?

Like he'll ever talk.

[blastiarm]

Yeah, actually. If you're so worried about getting out, people are going to wonder if you'd do anything to get out. Even murdering someone.

But yeah, I agree with you on that. The Kingmaker isn't gonna tell us anything useful. Maybe someone will piss him off enough for him to let something slip though. That's what I'm thinking.

[lackinginfaith]

I'm sure everyone has their reasons. Or something important enough.

Hence racing yourself past midnight?

[blastiarm]

Well said.

[BUT ONTO MORE IMPORTANT MATTERS...]

That was actually just because I was bored and thought it'd be fun. But maybe he'd get mad if I was loud enough to keep him up all night.

[lackinginfaith]

Does he even sleep in here? It's hard to tell.

[blastiarm]

Good question. I just sort of figured he did, but maybe he doesn't need to...?

[lackinginfaith]

Maybe not every species needs sleep. He could be another robot. Or just live elsewhere and observe us remotely, like a seer or just with one of those security camera systems.

[blastiarm]

...What's a security camera?

[#priorities]

[lackinginfaith]

A machine that sends a video feed to a security console -- humans use them in things like stores to make sure nobody steals anything. ...Assuming you aren't human. Maybe you are, I don't know.

[does he really look that weird-- okay, yes]
