WEEK 4

[killerwaves]

WEEK FOUR

24 Vacationers

What started with a week promising relaxation turned into something else entirely. It might be nice to try to grab a quiet moment after the whirlwind of the weekend, but there's something to be said about keeping up the momentum too.The island open to you this week, Dodo's Outlook, seems to have that in mind, or at the very least, keeping your mind occupied. All damage to the island buildings has been fixed by Monday morning at least, but noticeably there are less palm trees than before where the damage was the heaviest. Explorers too will find that the area behind the waterfall has been completely sealed off with solid rock.

Whether you're the type to commune with the nature of marine life in the aquarium, the cosmos in the planetarium, or to spin your own tale in the theater, there's plenty to do and enjoy. As always there's task to complete too, and after all you've been through by now, what's a little more bonding in the pursuit of prizes?

[ He shakes his head. ]

I did not. Outside of feeling well, nothing strange happened to me. I think this was by random, and I was just the unlucky target, though I'm glad it was me over someone else. Honestly... I think this is entirely something strange with the island. I could be wrong, but those are my thoughts.

[dancing_flames]

[Here's Shuda too, because while he may not be a healer, he also doesn't trust shit to not hit the fan after their little adventure on Sunday.]

Where exactly did you go yesterday? If there's a chance it's potentially connected to a particular place, we should try to narrow the options down.

[diabolizes]

My cabana, the buffet, and the bar... other places around this island as well. I spent most of my day at the bar, but Wang Lu was with me and he's fine.

[dancing_flames]

We should keep an eye on him too, just in case.

[He frowns.]

I'm going to go take a look around.

[You know, just in case there's something lurking on the island that's causing this, because he does not trust that there isn't some other Nomu with even weirder powers than the Grape of Wrath out there running around.]

[diabolizes]

Watch out for my skeletons!

[ No, he's kidding. ]

Report back to me with your findings.

[dancing_flames]

[That gets him a very flat look.]

If they come near me, I'm blowing them up.

[divector]

[ He blinks, letting the anger on his face dissipate in favor of a more neutral expression before answering. ]

To be fair, this island was never normal in the first place. But I think I understand what you're getting at? I'm guessing you're saying this is like an omen.

[diabolizes]

[ He quirks an eyebrow at the anger, but says nothing. ]

It could be, yes. Something to anticipate happening to someone else, at least.

[ And hopefully not worse than this. ]

[divector]

[ sorry dude beel threatened to eat his phone and he's a phoneholic. this generation ]

Hopefully not. But you should worry about yourself first.

[diabolizes]

[ smh zoomers ]

...I have full confidence that I'll be fine.

[ And he doesn't say that lightly. ]

At least we know now not to attempt healing magic next time.

[microtransactions]

'This' island?

[divector]

[ ? ]

Islands? You're right, I guess it's technically not one? I think.

[ But that just brings up another question. ]

That's how islands work, right?

[microtransactions]

No, I was just wondering if you had reason to believe something was off about this island in specific as opposed to the rest of the ones we've been on so far.

I think, technically, a group of islands is called an archipelago?

[finalmix]

[ maybe not hollering but: ] Said it earlier. Glitch in the simulation or the matrix~

[diabolizes]

What is that?

[chosenwang]

[ A blink and then he points at him ] Do you think?

[finalmix]

More the island than him, actually.

[ shrugs ]

[chosenwang]

That would explain the distortions we have seen and where the dead is. [ Wao ] Not sure if would explain the Nomu or their need for us to actually fight it for data.

[dupiety]

[What the fuck does that even mean, nerd.]

[divector]

Hmm, I wouldn't be surprised at this rate. Though the question then is how do we fix it?

[finalmix]

[ shrugs ]

I don't have any suggestions on that at the moment, I'm afraid~

[divector]

Beyond god? Too bad. If only it were that easy.

[ tried to start with a joke but then it wasn't really a joke. oops. why does everything have to be so complicated ]

[microtransactions]

I was trying not to go there yesterday.

[finalmix]

Oops, bit too late now?

[ does not sound apologetic in the slightest ]

[microtransactions]

Everyone already got all concerned when I made a throwaway comment yesterday about the suspicious reports, and here we are anyway ...

[ implied huge sigh ]
