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.

Huh?

[ Zenitsu: I hate you and I'm going to tear up these blankets so you won't have any whole ones if you change your mind later ]

...Do what you want.

[ It's fine. Hamsters and stuff sleep on shredded bedding, and even if it'll be a waste if Zenitsu completely demolishes the blankets and Ayabe has to throttle him for that, if it's small tears, they should be easy enough to mend. ]

[ The people fussing over him is mostly Ken, tbh ]

I was fine with this mansion when it was only two floors, so I probably won't need anything. But thanks, Beau.

[ He's trying not to wriggle around :T ]

A monster'd shred those to pieces if they got their claws in that thing. You'd be running around Zemuria with torn pants 24/7.

I'm not afraid of monsters. You get rid of them in a different way than you do with yao. Besides,

[Ash is free to wiggle while he threads the needle through again.]

my golden core allows me to heal at a faster rate. And I can heal against graver things than people who haven't gained a golden core.

That sounds uncomfortable... Does it hurt, though?

[ Pins and needles makes way to either numbness or pain once it wears off, neither of which are very good. She should find some what to break them off. ]

It's not painful, no. I'm not sure I want to try my luck with damaging them further, though.

[ not that she's tried, but like, they're already pretty shabby looking. ]

[personal profile] gitalong 2020-03-26 09:22 pm (UTC)(link)
I dunno. Don't human foods have a lot of salt on them?

[ ... ]

Is that why I always need to drink lots of water after Miss Kamila feeds me peanut butter?!

[ i hope the doll comes to life terminator style and snatches the ice cream from Ash's hand ]

[personal profile] gitalong 2020-03-26 09:23 pm (UTC)(link)
But I don't have any fur right now!

[ his metal neck is very smooth though, it's true ]
gitalong: (a ray of light)

[personal profile] gitalong 2020-03-26 09:26 pm (UTC)(link)
I do?

[ ...! ]

That's right! I do! But I still think you should get to stay in nicer places! Ones with beds and kitchens and TVs and "hello?"s!
gitalong: (corey core)

[personal profile] gitalong 2020-03-26 09:29 pm (UTC)(link)
[ just "happened", sure ok ]

Huh? You don't recognize me? That's... so mean...

[ yeah who WOULDN'T recognize a bright red lamp's soul. even if they can't actually see his soul ]
gitalong: (a ray of light)

[personal profile] gitalong 2020-03-26 09:31 pm (UTC)(link)
[ it twists the other way! git gud, Toi ]
gitalong: (a ray of light)

[personal profile] gitalong 2020-03-26 09:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Sure I can!

[ I guess the lamp has a base now. it's probably for the best ]

This body can move faster than you'd think, sometimes! It's really pretty neat!
gitalong: (burnt out)

Mm. Well, I don't know the science definition of a person. But to me, if I can talk to you and be your friend, then that's what you are. I don't really think much of anyone who'd say differently.

[That's the same type who would think it was okay to kill the Burnish, too. He nods, though.]

That's my firefighting gear. It's not really meant for fighting something like that, but it held up pretty good, huh?

[personal profile] wakizashis 2020-03-27 12:41 am (UTC)(link)
Ah, but you still understand.

[ lampsile gets a fond stroke despite not being fluffy ]

You're quite the expert over me after all!

[ oh yeah if he'd rolled NHS she would've midtrialed that's - hm ]

I get that. It might've broken him, so I'm glad he didn't. Still stupid, but. [ a beat. ] I think I understand, kinda. You were in some kind of gang?
disreguarded: (37)

[personal profile] disreguarded 2020-03-27 01:36 am (UTC)(link)
I mean, you are. Definitely. You're tiny and you look pissed off, it's awesome.
kazokun: (127)

[personal profile] kazokun 2020-03-27 01:53 am (UTC)(link)
[ Shh, it was just there. ]

It's nothing to do with being mean. If I've met a talking lamp before in my life, there's no way I would forget.
inaudibly: ((゚ペ)?)

[personal profile] inaudibly 2020-03-27 02:23 am (UTC)(link)
[Ash just be honest and say it's for the aesthetic!!!]

If you cut something it's going to be just as likely to rip further.
inaudibly: ((;¬_¬))

[He started following her, might as well commit to it. Frankly, he isn't that surprised to see the hoard. He knows how birds work. He doesn't look especially phased at being caught, but then again, his face is hard to read when it's just eyes and darkness. He shrugs.]

Both. What's this all for?
[Yeah.]

[personal profile] shortforever 2020-03-27 04:15 am (UTC)(link)
[Well, as long as someone gets why he did it, it's okay.]

Yeah, the Sheep. It was a bunch of kids running around trying not to get taken in by any of the dozens of hazards for kids who live on the street. We were kinda like a family for each other, you know? None of us had any parents, so we just relied on each other.

[personal profile] shortforever 2020-03-27 04:16 am (UTC)(link)
[Ok. Handshake is a go.]

[personal profile] shortforever 2020-03-27 04:17 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah? What's wrong with it then?
