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

[NO? She is good. This is helping. Except she does stop for a second at that.]

I'm checking out all the new rooms. Everyone else is too.

[But they are also actually looking around one and taking breaks.]

[goodforsomething]

You're runnin' around like a chicken with your head cut off.

[wokeupdead]

[NO???? Okay, she is. Lynne tucks her hands deep into her jumpsuit pockets. Look, she is standing still.]

Just restless is all. I need to find a way out.

[goodforsomething]

Well, you got any leads so far?

[Because rushing around like that doesn't seem conducive to finding any.]

[wokeupdead]

Well- no.

[UGH... sigh.]

This place is as solid concrete as the first day we showed up.

[goodforsomething]

Yeah, no kiddin'. We oughta just pick a wall and start takin' sledgehammers to it.

[NOT REALLY but maybe at some point]

[wokeupdead]

[Yeah, cause that worked out so well for the FIRST PERSON who tried that. Lynne kicks the wall, although not hard enough to hurt herself.]

I'd help with that. Even if it didn't work it would at least be fun.

[or tire her out until she can't be stressed.]

[goodforsomething]

Long as it ain't load-bearing, kid.

[okay stan stop encouraging violence as an answer to stress]

[wokeupdead]

Is there anyway to tell considering we can't see the steel beams?

[SHE'S ACTUALLY CONSIDERING IT.]

[goodforsomething]

I dunno...maybe just where it is?

[HE DOESN'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT ARCHITECTURE DO NOT TAKE HIS ADVICE]

[wokeupdead]

[TOO LATE. SHE'S GONNA HIT THINGS TO FEEL BETTER. THANKS, STAN.]

This place seems pretty sturdy maybe I can just wing it?

[goodforsomething]

[Stan considers this, then shrugs.]

Eh, probably. Just do it away from the bedrooms.

[wokeupdead]

Will do. I wouldn't want the noise to wake anyone up anyway.

[The only thing to worry about here. Also since she realizes she's being one sided, oops.]

...How are you today?

[goodforsomething]

Great! [And he does genuinely seem to be in a good mood.] You? Aside from the runnin' around?

[wokeupdead]

...I'm fine. [wow that lie] You're a pretty tough guy to be holding up so well.

[goodforsomething]

Eh, freakin' out is what he wants to see. I'm tryin' to be as boring to watch as possible.

[wokeupdead]

I wish that would work but if people still keep doing...

[murders. Sigh, nevermind.]

What do you do to pass time then?

[goodforsomething]

...guess I spend a weird amount of time punchin' the yeti.

[That's not innuendo, he literally made a yeti to punch because there's no punching bags here and...that was the logical next step?]

I miss TV.

[wokeupdead]

[C-could he not come up with a better phrase for that? Thankfully Lynne takes him at face value.]

TV would be nice. I was never really the book reading type in the first place and the selection that he has is... Well. It could be better.

[goodforsomething]

Yeah. I could get behind a few good ones, but that's all junk in there. Like The Glistening. Is that supposed to be scary?
