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.

"Damn" what?
no subject
'Damn that's a nice smile'. Or something like that. You look really good like that, you know?
no subject
[ He does not care about looking good!! let him live ]
no subject
[How can you be so cruel???]
no subject
[ And only if Chuuya doesn't murder. Nobody can ever say Ayabe is cruel again. ]
no subject
[He'll find ways to earn more. Like by not murdering.]
no subject
...when we all talked together before, do you remember what I said about what makes me happy? Let me do that.
no subject
Yeah, okay.
[As weird as it is to let someone else care for him, he'll allow it. Since it makes Ayabe happy.]
But if you get to do what makes you happy, then we should sometimes do what makes me happy too.
no subject
I'm not letting you go back.
[ That is murder adjacent, Chuuya ]
no subject
[And please cook for him, he likes Ayabe's cooking.]
no subject
[ he has everything right here to go camping, this is teenager stuff, right ]
Ken wanted to stay with me, so we're going to try and make it bigger to fit more people.
no subject
[He's lived on the streets before so he doesn't see the appeal of sleeping outside, but he'll run with it.]
We should invite Akira too, so he's not lonely by himself.
no subject
Also, why would Akira be lonely by himself AKIRA MUST HAVE MORE FRIENDS THAN JUST CHUUYA, PLEASE, LET ME BELIEVE THIS ]
Sure, we can invite Akira. We're going to need a lot more sheets to fit four people, though.
no subject
It's fine, we can take the sheets from my room.
no subject
You won't have sheets, then, unless both of you plan on camping out with us overnight too.
no subject
[He's totally not suggesting it so he can sleep next to Ayabe. Nope. Ayabe definitely does not have wing-blankets in his future.]
no subject
Yeah, but... It'll be a hassle to bring the sheets back and forth if it's only for a night, is what I meant. [ He's sort of hoping even Ken gets tired of the hobo life and goes back to his room where he finally gets a bed and just never uses it ]
Why don't you ask Akira first if he wants to come?
no subject
[He was totally just going to drag him out there.]
no subject
[ Akira, returning to his room to see the beds stripped bare:
Chuuya: surprise, we're camping
don't make it be like this ]
