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!]

You have any idea how long it would take to heal from an amputation? Wouldn't it take longer than four months? I can use this arm just fine and there's no pain or anything.

[captainobnoxious]

Sounds longer then, yeah. The amputation itself's probably like, a few months, [from what she's seen] and I'll be honest and say I don't think I've seen something like your arm ever before. We just kind of lopped the part off and that's that.

[... Maybe add a hook or something.]

So we're looking at half a year minimum to get used to the tinarm you have, maybe. Could be a lot longer, but I'm not a doctor so I have nooo idea for sure.

[blastiarm]

A year... But then the age on my profile would be different, wouldn't it? It's actually right, unlike what it says for other people.

But yeah, it functions perfectly fine. No pain, nothing. It's got no problems whatsoever.

[captainobnoxious]

[Soooooo.

That's a reason to go over to the wall for, as soon as she make an escape.]

At least it looks pretty cool, however long we were out. I'd probably chop off my own arm if I could have something like that with as little pain and amazing functionality as you have with it right now. [It'd be useful to cut through trolls with.] Why does it glow?

[blastiarm]

Yeah. It's throwing my balance off a little and it's not quite as quick as I'm used to and I'm not sure how much it'd throw off my usual fighting style, but it's not bad at all. If that guy had to take my arm off, at least I've got a nice replacement.

[He flexes his fingers on that hand as he speaks, tipping his head a bit as he examines it.]

As for the glowing... I have no idea. Maybe it's got something to do with the blastia? I don't know enough about them to say.

[captainobnoxious]

[Another fighter. Excellent. They even have the same kind of face!!]

You've gotta know more than me anyway, swordy. What's a blastia?

[Because the "blast" part sounds like BOOM and that's pretty good.]

[blastiarm]

Blastia are a power source. They're absolutely vital where I'm from. Big towns have barrier blastia that keep monster out. But blastia can be used to power ships and weapons and smaller ones can be used by individuals to strengthen them and let them use magic. You can't hope to stand a chance against a monster without one.

But this one's definitely not a small one. I don't know why it's not working either. The arm still works, but the blastia doesn't, if that makes sense.

[And to be honest, he's not sure if it does or not. He's not familiar with prosthetics.]

[captainobnoxious]

[Ohhhh.




Wow. You know what she got from this?]

So without it you're weak as hell.

[blastiarm]

Not me. Other people.

[zagi]

[captainobnoxious]

I like your spirit.

[Confidence is key.]

So it's just an improvement on an already strong person. Sounds like we could all do with one.

[blastiarm]

Exactly! They're pretty great, everyone should have one.

[captainobnoxious]

Let's cut off our arms and see if he'll give us any!

[blastiarm]

[WELL THAT'S GOING TO GET HIM TO LAUGH REALLY GODDAMN HARD

give him a moment, he'll recover

but wooooooow

you're his favorite person here, sigrun]

You're insane!

[And that's said with all the affection and awe in the world.]

If you can convince him to give us all blastia arms then I'll gladly help!

[likes: bleeding????????]

[captainobnoxious]

[Hey, it'd be a huge help if everyone had robot arms, alright? And what's wrong with losing a limb or two in the pursuit of strength?

THAT SAID: SHE'LL LAUGH TOO. She has great ideas, she knows.]

We'll have to take turns with the burning bits and whatever, but it'll turn out great in the end. We'll be strong enough to punch our way out!

[See: someone who actually has no idea how to amputate anything. Whatever shitty medic did this to her arm knows how to, but she doesn't.]

[blastiarm]

Sounds like a great plan!

[well to be fair he didn't do this to himself and like hell if he knows anything about medicine, we just relying on healing magic and gels like sane people!!!]

When this thing's at full power, I'm sure I'll be a hell of a lot stronger than I was! It'll be great!

[captainobnoxious]

Looking forward to it! We'll have our own little army, and then we'll see how that Kingmaker feels about us just sitting in here!

[lbr this just means better violence]

[blastiarm]

[SEE YOU GET HIM]

He's the idiot who brought twenty-seven of us in here. He made a big mistake bringing in so many people. There's no way one person can take on all of us!

[...we have 100-man melees in vesperialand, maybe he shouldn't be talking]

[captainobnoxious]

[LISTEN ZAGI IS LIKE SIGRUN'S CHILD]

Unless he's a robot. Then he might have a chance. Maybe.

[captainobnoxious]

[Eh.]

No matter what the guy looks like, we'll tear him a new one!

[blastiarm]

[SIGRUN WOULD BE THE BEST MOM-- okay no]

I don't know anything about robots [sorry mettaton] but there's no way that guy could beat me, let alone everyone else!

[captainobnoxious]

Robots are just made of metal, and metal can be stabbed, so they're not that big a deal anyway! [sorry bae] Actually, thinking about it, just about anything can be stabbed. That's great, isn't it?

[heheh. heh. ahhh yes. this is the worst.]

[blastiarm]

[he's going to be vibrating for the next year now, thanks]

Exactly! I've got a pretty good set of knives that can take care of metal, but I'm not sure what happened to them. I'm guessing the Kingmaker took 'em when he took my arm. Once I get them back though...!

[LET'S GO STAB A GUY, SIGRUN]

[captainobnoxious]

[OH BOY

OH BOY YES]

He must've took my gun and knife then too! When he replaced it with these awful stitches! When I get my hands on him, he won't be seeing a pretty side of me, I've had those things for years now!

[it's Personal apparently]

[blastiarm]

Yeah! We'll take him out, it'll be fun!

[captainobnoxious]

[Zagi, you're the best. She feels so at home around you. It's like someone's finally matched her passion for everything she stands for, like exciting fights, glory, and treasure.

The last is a little out of nowhere admittedly but treasure. He can have one of her phone-cracked nuts.]
