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.

You sound irritated. Is it annoying you? If it is, you're probably doing it to yourself.

Man, I wonder why I'm annoyed.

How should I know?

[ ash is always annoyed. take that!

that doesn't stop zenitsu from walking over and dropping down to sit next to ash. it's not immediately obvious what he's supposed to be, between the white fur along his ears and neck and the claws protruding from his fingers. ]


Anyway, now's as good a time as any. I didn't get to say it back then, but thanks for helping me out when I got hurt.

[ he's lowkey ticked, excuse.

ash's ears twitch a bit more, but he's trying to ignore them. it's like an eye twitch. ]


... Ah. How's it doing -- healing okay?

[ ash needs to learn how to relax. ]

It's basically healed by now. Miss Luna did a good job. It doesn't hurt anymore, either.

[ if it did, he'd be sniffling everywhere he goes. and if it weren't for ayabe and ash, who knows what could have happened! scary. ]

[ he has an Anger. ]

That's good. I don't think any of us were expecting the duck to literally fire a damn gun.

[ DUCK GUN. ]

I still don't know how it happened. Ducks don't have fingers. Their feet are webbed! How did Fluffybutt pull the trigger? It's impossible!

Fluffybutt's a talented duck. Shame it put those skills to use for chaos, but at least it didn't hit anywhere lethal.

Are you serious? Fluffybutt's a duck. Plus, what happened was an accident. I wouldn't call that a skill!

Who knows? Maybe it's a deadly assassin. You wouldn't expect a duck to be able to commit murder, right?
