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's a lot more efficient than human food, I can tell you that!

It converts directly to energy inside your body, as soon as you eat it. It can heal minor injuries and everything.

[notjustawriter]

Does it now?

Seems like that would be useful if you're prone to scrapes and bruises.

I wonder if that would work around here, what with the Kingmaker doin' thing he apparently shouldn't be able to.

[ratingspoint]

Or if you just need a burst of energy! It doesn't need to be broken down by our bodies first, after all.

Have you tried getting any more information out of him, though? The Kingmaker.

[notjustawriter]

I see! Seems pretty convenient when you're just a bit tired.

[and confusing as hell]

I have, actually-- he's about as personable one-on-one when he is making threats to the entire group.

What's more interestin' to me is what he didn't say.

[ratingspoint]

Ooooh, now that sounds like a story - go on.

[notjustawriter]

He refused to say anything about this place, called it "boring" when I asked him-- even if I think it's fascinatin'.

The way I look at it, there are two possibilities right now: either this is a place he's so familiar with he doesn't find it noteworthy, or he doesn't know anythin' about it at all, and is trying to cover that fact.

If the latter's the case, it probably means he's workin' for someone else.

[ratingspoint]

That would be a plot twist, wouldn't it! But there's another choice, isn't there? Involving none of the above?

[notjustawriter]

[Blank stare.]

Besides just askin' the wrong questions, you mean?

[ratingspoint]

Maybe he doesn't want us to know where we are because one of us will recognize it.

[notjustawriter]

....You're right.

That's another possibility. I was thinking too much about figuring out what this all is.
