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.

A metaphor...

You can't really heal a heart with a metaphor.

..."Babe"?

[what

you young folk with your hip new lingo

but she shakes her head]


N-no... We didn't get very far before realizing we... we weren't going to be able to have a conversation. What it wants was very, very clear.

Blue was right. Talking to it isn't an option.

[She sounds extremely defeated as she says that, like the words themselves are a punch to the gut.]

... Nothing, don't worry about it. [ BRUSHING RIGHT PAST THAT ]

Yeah. It just wants us to die. [ long slow sigh. ] Okay. Okay, yeah. Rest, okay? I'll come find you later.

[ she tucks the blanket in a little more. ]

Not it so many words. It wants to consume. I... think we're just conveniently in a place that dying will give it what it wants...

[But she'll nod, a weary motion, lolling to the side a bit as her eyes darken.

Goodnight.

well and then Nic shakes her back awake but yknow, it's fine.]

Yeah, it's more lack of fighting spirit with you.

You've been a robot the whole time . . . ?

[He considers that, and, well, it makes a few things make more sense.]

That's pretty awesome.

[HIS HANDS, LUNA. LOOK AT HIS HANDS!!!

That said, even without a proper face, Nic's whole posture gives off the vibe of someone who's been caught out Expressing Emotions and regrets it.]


No.

Can't say I disagree with that~

Oh, but there's one thing I am determined about!

Yeah! That's perfect! You sure you're a pizza novice?

[personal profile] hamaoned 2020-03-26 01:00 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah! That's how you would go about practicing.

[ uhh. ]

You fell apart when I barked at you, right? I can do that again...

They weren't—

[Alive in the first place, he almost says, but then Beau is handing him some kind of stuffed animal. He blinks as he listens to her.]

—Wait, seriously?

[He glances towards Jin Ling for a second before looking back at Beau.]

...I've been a cook before. I never made things like this, but the principle of it is the same, even if it's in a different form than I'm used to.

I really want to try that margherita, but I don't want to ruin it.

[It's pretty adorable, right?]

I wanna frame it and put it up on the wall, and eat it at the same time!
brokethefirst: (☽ that's wound by a key)

[personal profile] brokethefirst 2020-03-26 01:01 am (UTC)(link)
That's right. Due to the circumstances, I figured it would be best not to mention it unless necessary. I... I didn't want to frighten anyone.

[and here she is, giving poor NHS a heart attack]

I'm glad you think so, though. Not many people here are familiar with my kind of technology, apparently.

[ ken is


going to ignore shima wholesale and just take hold of the doll's hands (and not! get shocked) as he lowers his head to them in an almost prayer-like manner.

I'm sorry that you were stuck with us to fix your heart. I'm just not sure what you need from us when you ask for 'determination'.

[Very blueitful.

Zenitsu thinks Kaoru looks kind of horrific, but he's confident that there can no longer be a case of mistaken identity after this makeover.

I know it's just a doll, but do we really have to change his clothes?

[Jin Ling looks like Beau socked him in the face unexpectedly. She did, but, like, metaphorically.]

What?! Nothing is bothering me, so I don't have anything to say!

[This is very clearly bullshit, but like hell he is going to--! His eyes cut sharply and warily at Hunter, and then he jerks his head away. Absolutely not, no.]

Perhaps we can just add something like a scarf?

[ hori's going to put more red butterflies in his hair while he's at it ]
