WEEK THREE

26 Vacationers

The events of the past weekend, the past week, may linger on your mind as you awaken to the sun rising on your third week on Sungem's Peak. The rays of the sun are welcoming as always, and so are the amenities, and the new island— Kingfisher's Retreat.

The theme this week certainly seems to be relaxation and excitement, perhaps with a mind to distract all vacationers that your number has decreased by two. Or maybe you're the type to take a plunge in the name of your sacrificed vacationers? Either way, there's plenty of do, including more tasks for the objective minded.

!

TASKS:

Dear:
How are you enjoying your vacation? Are you missing your friends or family back home? Write them a postcard and post it on the bulletin board!
(REWARD: RARE!)

Gifts:
Everyone loves gifts, so this week give one to someone else! It can be a physical gift, a gift from the heart, or any other kind of gift.
(REWARD: RARE!)

Take a Plunge
Take advantage of the waterfall, cold plunge, or even plain trust with one another. The point is to take a leap of faith together!
(Reward: Common)

(( REMINDER: Task submissions are due Friday by 9 PM EST/6 PM PST. ))

(( OOC: Murder proposals are due by Tuesday at 4 PM EST / 1 PM PST, for the current week's murder. Feel free to submit for later weeks too!

Also, as always, your admins can be contacted for a chat. ))

Yes, like all of you at this point.

[immortalpoet]

[MAKING A FACE]

That would be it.

[conceivesfrenzy]

[ giggles ]

You're so mean, Vergie. You mean to tell me you'd be okay with everyone here dying~?

[ she is too, but This Ain't About Her Right Now. ]

[immortalpoet]

Would you be okay with everyone here dying?

[DEFLECTING WITH A QUESTION THE VERG WAY]

[dancing_flames]

There you go.

[Seriously, WHY did they give this group of people a karaoke room. WAS IT TO INCENTIVIZE MURDER???]

So from where I'm standing, hope's not so bad.

[conceivesfrenzy]

Maybe if we count to three, we can both say our answer at the same time?

[ NOT SO FAST THERE, MADS ]

[immortalpoet]

Sure. Let's do it.

[plunges]

[ Awkward men solidarity....

Xiao will give him a look, though, one that's actually kind of sympathetic. He'll talk to Zelkov when he's out of the water. For now...only suffering. ]

[plunges]

[ He frowns at Wang Lu, lets out a sigh. ]

The water is nice, but there are way too many of us here.

[plunges]

[ Xiao hears Crea's voice and turns to look at him. He might look a little silly, brooding in a bright green shirt, but this is Typical Xiao behavior.

Still, he visibly relaxes when Crea approaches. ]

There are far too many people for this to be relaxing.

[ Somehow, his roommate's presence is more calming than the actual event?? ]

[conceivesfrenzy]

[ Oh. She wasn't actually expecting him to say yes. Unless he's just fucking with her, but she doesn't really care. ]

Okay, on three! One..... twoooooooo........ [ slows down and squints to see if he's actually going to play along or not. ]

[plunges]

[ Hmmm... ]

Let me take a look.

[ The pork seems a bit better off than the ginger. Xiao would much rather work with something fresh, but alas. He points at the powder. ]

Were you unable to find something fresh? If not, this will have to do.

[immortalpoet]

One.......two......

[HE IS LOOKING EXPECTANTLY. ARE U GOING RO DO THIS OR NOT.]

[chosenwang]

[ Clearly he's sighing because Wang Lu isn't spending enough time with him ]

We can always sneak away if you a break.

[butcherspice]

Mm. Good point, only a right nutter would drown someone in hot water. Shitty enough way to go without boiling like a lobster.

[butcherspice]

They got volcanoes in space, eh? Must be a bigger scorcher in the atmosphere.

[Billy considers the question for a moment, observing whatever chaos is going on.]

Lobelia's an easy bet. He's the exact sort of fucked in the head to wanna know what offin' someone in a hot spring would sound like.

Drownin' takes holding someone down though, and half this lot's too spindly to manage. Though the warrior types might manage.

[butcherspice]

[Ok, half is being generous. But maybe there's a joke in there somewhere.]

He's earned a fair bit of waterboardin' I'd say--only problem is he'd like it too much from the way he's wired.

[butcherspice]

[You know what is the deal with all the weird names currency has.]

Right. Me neither. All the countries that have 'em where I'm from are the ones I haven't gone to.

[skyworp]

I do value a bit of fun. Good that you do too.

[He leans himself on the harpoons, kind of like a crutch.]

Interesting they have someone else’s belongings here. What’s that about?

[hearnoplague]

How common is that situation?

[hearnoplague]

[ Well that comment set off a chain reaction of awkward. Kallamar just gently facepalms for a bit and sighs. ]

Just be happy no one is harvesting his bones or dancing on his grave.

1/2

[hearnoplague]

[ He rolls his eyes at her before fiddling with the dumb phone. ]

Their stated motive is to escape at any cost. If that means they must supply regular sacrifices to keep this realm from imploding, then so be it.

Not that I would foolishly trust either of them to not have ulterior motives for the island in the first place-

[skyworp]

I’ll bet. How else would they control us? Not without threat.

[He chuckles.]

I wonder how well that display worked. Will anyone try something? I do hope so.

2/2

[hearnoplague]

... Ah?

[ He found the conversation he was looking for. ]

... Interesting...

It seems the weekly tasks were not assigned by our captors.

[hearnoplague]

...

[ He frowns. ]

Abandon all hope of a peaceful weekend. I sense a pattern in the disturbances and deaths thus far.
