WEEK FOUR

OCCUPANCY: 25

Rise and shine, little monsters. A new week is waiting just for you. The events of yesterday may have been hard to stomach, but time heals all wounds, after all. The damages the house has incurred over the last week have been reverted and the staff is hard at work fulfilling their roles in this mansion. A piping hot breakfast is served in the dining room promptly at 7am, every square inch of floor and furniture has been cleaned spotless, and Pumpkin is...probably around tending to the animals outside. As you exit your rooms on this lovely morning, guests will find that the barrier leading upstairs has diminished, and a new floor has been opened to explore.

For anyone who ventures into the ballroom, a new change may become apparent. Should you choose to look at the plaques long enough, three images will flicker and change sporadically. While Subete's portrait remains the same, on occasion it will change to an image of a disembodied head, expression frozen in shock. Likewise, Dazai's portrait looks just like himself, though if you blink you may miss it changing into a hulking, dark nine-tailed fox with blood glistening in its teeth. Finally, Anya's portrait reveals a picture of the young girl, but every now and then a blossom of red appears on her pristine outfit as the light fades from her eyes. There is no rhyme and reason for the change...though perhaps it serves as a reminder to those who remain.

Additionally, the house rules have been moved from the ballroom and back into the hallway, mounted in the entryway as they were.

After weeks of getting to know each other, you may believe you have learned the most important things about them. You've seen their memories, you've felt their emotions, and you've shared their pain. But even so, some of you continue to hide your true intentions. Starting today, from the moment you wake, a mask will appear and cover half of your face. Each mask is different and though you may not understand what it means yet, each design implies something about you. Those who have experience within the supernatural world might have a white feather pattern across their mask while those who have powers associated with a certain element may find their mask changing color and temperature. Some masks may reflect bloody handprints to reflect the sins of a killer while others will appear black and cracking for someone who has died before. Those holding back a big secret will find their mask slowly covering their whole face and others still will find their masks reflecting anything from acts of betrayal to hidden romantic feelings. Though all are unique to each guest, all will find they are unable to remove these masks.

Some of you may wear your mask proudly as you have nothing left to hide, while others of you may become desperate in your attempt to remove it. Feelings of anger and aggression may bubble up to the surface this week over the smallest problems even for the most calm of people. As the sun sets, you may find that you don't feel quite like yourself, opposite personality trades coming to light. Luckily for you, you may not have to worry. Every now and then you may find a gap in your memory, temporary amnesia removing an embarrassing incident or two.

You may experience only some of these events. Then again, maybe you're unlucky and you're experiencing all of these events at different points in time. Time is of the essence, however, and come Monday at noon a rustling crackle of static can be heard from overhead. Try as you might, you won't be able to find the speakers but a message will play loud and clear for all.

[ he just raises an eyebrow. I mean. ]

The fuck is a Detroit.

The motorcycle.

[Moving to just sit on Galo instead of holding him down. Like he's a chair.]

The city where I awakened as Burnish. In the tradition of Mad Burnish, my armor and bike are named after it.

But you're the boss, so you can change the tradition and make a better name!

[Lio, please, you're so tiny. Switching to doing push ups with Lio on his back just to show off.]

[ that's a new brand of sappy couple crap he's never seen before, good job guys. still, ash is going to take the chance to walk around to the front of the motorcycle and take a good look at it. ]

If that's widely known though, wouldn't that be like... a huge giveaway for how to track you? Naming something after where you're from?

I am the boss and the name will stay. I will run you over with it if you continue to try and change it.

[Not stopping him from doing the push-ups?? He kind of enjoys that. This really is a new brand of disgusting PDA that shouldn't be tolerated. Then back to Ash.]

Knowing where I am from gives no lead as to my current movements.

I'll keep thinking of names until I find one you do like.

[Continuing to do push ups. He kind of enjoys it, too.]

[ his eyes are just flickering over and going up and down watching the push up motion. they're both digusting, wow. ]

We've got some stuff like this back home, but... it's pretty new tech. And not quite as [ loud? flashy? ] stylish. Man, if it were here we could have a race.

I would win.

[Honestly, what a look, making that face while sitting on the back of a buff firefighter who is giving him pushups? Powerful?]

[He's just going to continue.]

I have a bike, too! I'm pretty fast on it.

[No one cares, Galo, because it's just a normal motorcycle and not made of fire.]

[ lio this is the weirdest shit he’s dealt with in a while and he’s dealt with ouroboros and a girl who writes boy’s love novels for a living ]

Bold flex from the only guy here with a bike, Gooseberry.

[ yeah galo no one cares about your non-fiery bike— although— ]

A three person race would be even more fun too.

Fine, I will show you.

[Getting off Galo then so he can go back and sit on the bike!! Revving it!!!!!!!!!!!!]

[Aww :(

Sitting up to watch him.]

Yeah! Next week, I'll get my bike back and we'll all see.

Gotta get the case right first. Although it seems like you're doing alright with that so far.

[ who is he talking to? lio. it's probably lio. ]
