WEEK FIVE: MINGLE

WEEK FIVE



OCCUPANCY: 23


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, two images will flicker and change sporadically. While Phoenix's portrait remains the same, on occasion it will change to an unrecognizable figure, flames surrounding the charred flesh. Likewise, Four's portrait looks just like herself, though if you blink you may miss the sharp knives protruding through her chest, rivers of blood dripping down her front. 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.

You know what to expect by now. Once a week, one of your own transforms into someone unrecognizable. But it's hard to empathize with someone without experiencing the hardship for yourself, isn't it? Worry not. Starting today, from the moment you wake, you will find that you yourself have changed into something unrecognizable. Claws, fangs, fur, scales, extra limbs, extra mouths...the changes are numerous as your monster form takes a hold of you. Oh but it's alright! It's just the physical appearance, after all. You're still yourself inside...but it may be hard to believe that as the week goes on.

Some of you may be able to brush these strange changes aside. Others of you may find yourself struggling to understand who you really are. And others of you will find even more problems on hand. Is it your imagination, or did the mansion grow several degrees colder? You just can't quite to seem to warm up. While you may normally be comfortable sharing blankets with your fellow guests, you now find yourself feeling a bit greedy and unwilling to share...well, anything, really. The insatiable greed requires you to take and take and take, no matter if you require the necessities you're taking. And yet even as you take, and especially as you consume, you find that you're never quite satisfied, belly never quite full regardless of how much you eat. That's troubling, isn't it?

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.

[She has to think REALLY HARD about this for some reason. It's hard to tell what exactly is going on when someone doesn't have a face.]

Yes.

We were able to speak to it.

You...wanna try it?

[ LOOK. THERE COULD BE SOME REASONING FOR THIS. ]

Maybe there are just some places we can't touch.

...

I don't know.

We were trapped. All night. All morning.

A...Akira was the one who wrote that. I think he spoke to someone afterwards.

I'm sorry, Lio.

[YEAH "MAYBE ITS DEAD" IS EXACTLY WHY NIC IS SHAKING IT AND LEAVING THE BOYS ALONE.

He can only think of one person this could logically be and he is suddenly very worried about the possibility of Luna being dead!!

He's pretty unrecognizable himself and a terrible sight to see just up waking but you know, it's fine.]

No. No, I'm... [...] Awake now...

[It sure feels like a robot!

The lights of the eyes flicker to life after a moment, bright red. They glance at Galo.

Hewoo?]

[Well. They were kicked out of their room by nasty ectoplasm goop! So rude! Who could possibly be responsible?

What did you guys get up to?
madburnout: (31.)

[personal profile] madburnout 2020-03-25 11:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Mm. It makes sense with what the dead have been trying to communicate, that after a time it consumes the souls of the dead to sustain itself. I imagine that is how it continues to grow its power.

[. . . ]

I don't think you have anything to apologize for. You should sleep.

[he hasn't fallen asleep yet so he mutters]

Not all of it, according to Blue.

Just. . . like. A tiny fraction. Very small.

But we shouldn't do it again.

[Muttering something about see you soon in a very rude tone as if he intends to fully repay Mr. Blood and Ectoplasm back in full for ruining their bed twice in as many weeks. But following him.]

Is it more . . . goo?

[GOD GO TO SLEEP. Then again, he does keep talking. Luna seems to be drifting off again, so.]

Blue mentioned to me that suffering consequences may not be necessary.

You could have just punched me like everyone else did, you know!

[Or maybe he can.]
