Week 3.

[trustharder]

WEEK 3 Another week has passed; two more Survivors are gone. Pearl and Caren both had someone to fight for, someone worth killing for; perhaps it's for the best to hope that somehow they've found peace despite not being able to collect on the Kingmaker's incentive. Saturday is given to regrouping and sleep; there aren't any bodies to be found on Sunday morning. That doesn't mean the night passed easily, though - it seems another piece of your personal puzzle may have fallen into place while you slept... Following that spiral staircase up to the second floor will reveal something strange; those stairs definitely lead far higher than you remember, up to a previously inaccessible third floor. Go ahead and explore as much as you like; consider it your reward for a job well done. SURVIVORS REMAINING: 23

SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY

[ She nods. ]

I've done the same with the storage room. [ ... she tries not to think about the fact that it's that which ultimately did Caren in. Or, at least, had a heavy hand in it. ]

If you would like any assistance, I'd be glad to lend a hand. It's best to have to pairs of eyes on the items.

[Colress merely gives a solemn nod about the first floor storage room. He recalls the discussion about additional items appearing in the storage room well enough. He doesn't comment further though, because he'd rather not partake in grim discussion right now. Not after the incentive announcement.

He does perk up a little bit at Aqua's suggestion though, and offers a small smile as he hands over his copy of the list for her to check out.]

I would appreciate that, Miss Aqua. Perhaps we can puzzle out the uses of some of these chemicals together while we're at it.

[He's not sure what type of world Aqua comes from...but who knows, maybe her world has some of these things.]

[prismbloom]

[ She takes it, looking it over. At the miss-- ]

Please, just Aqua is fine.

[ Hmmm. ]

The bottles may have some information about for what they're used.

[pokexplorer]

Ah, Aqua it is!

[He heads on over to the closet to pull out some of the bottles. There are warning labels everywhere.]

You know...the more I look at these, the more I wonder how they are supposed to help our laundry. Bleach, possibly. But some of these...

[prismbloom]

[ That's... a lot of warning labels, yeah. Aqua looks vaguely uncomfortable as she pokes through them. ]

If it were any other situation, I'd be more confused. Considering who's brought us here, though...

[pokexplorer]

Yes, no doubt that the Kingmaker has put these here for a reason... Hopefully no one here decides to put them to use for nefarious purposes.

[As he says that though...]

You know, when I began jotting these down, I considered asking you and the others what you would think of attempting to discard some of these entirely. I do wonder if the Kingmaker would simply replenish them the next day, however.

[prismbloom]

It's worth a shot, isn't it? If they are replenished, at the very least, we'll have an answer about something.

[pokexplorer]

I'll bring it up the next chance we're all gathered together. Let's just hope that they can be drained as well. Who knows what they could do to the pipes...

[Another thing they don't need is for something important to get busted because of the nerd who suggested an experiment.]

[prismbloom]

... If they eat through the pipes, that would only cause more problems for us.

[ In other words: bruh, be careful. ]

[pokexplorer]

I know. Don't you worry, I'll test it on something comparable before doing anything too rash.

[He sets down the latest bottle he was checking out and jots it down.]

No matter what ends up happening, this list is bound to help. Would you like a personal copy as well? I'm planning to make one for myself should the one I leave here get tampered with for any reason.

[prismbloom]

I'm sure you won't have trouble finding something on which to test it.

[ She nods, still looking over the bottles. He's really pushing this thing, isn't he? The Kingmaker. ]

Please--and I'll update it and share information with you as I learn new things.

[pokexplorer]

Certainly. The other storage room will be my first place to look for something metallic.

[Maybe there are smaller pipes lying around or something. You know, because that's safe...

And with Aqua's request, he flips to a new page in his notepad and begins to copy another set of information for her.]

Excellent, and many thanks! [...] I can see why you and Miss Caren were so intent on keeping order in the other storage room. It feels good to be productive...especially concerning something that could save us later on.
