WEEK SIX

16 Vacationers

Throughout your time on the island, there's been a steady rhythm; the murders, the trials, the executions, the clean-up afterwards that leave just up remnants for you to remember what was lost. This Monday morning though, things are different. The debris and any biohazards are cleared, but no effort has been made to repair the games at the arcade, or to restock the chemicals and damaged equipment at the laboratory.

Odd.

If you cast your eyes to the sky, you'll also notice that the distortion is also lingering—there's certainly less of it at least, a haze still lingering over the go-karts, one whirlpool lingering out in the sea. It could be worse, surely.

Though there's no new locations for you to take your mind off of all these oddities either. In fact, looking at your device to access the resort map area and scrolling past Kakapo's Nest triggers an error.

There’s one more, slightly more eclectic change: the kittybots, instead of having cute kitty ears and faces, are now without exception round-headed. This would make them look like ordinary robots, but their heads actually now look like a bowl of fish swimming, which occasionally form up into expressions. A change of pace for everything, it seems.

... BEEN A HUMAN/HUMANOID BEFORE THIS PLACE.

[chosenwang]

[ Time to drink ]

What are you normally? Some kind of cute mascot?

[microtransactions]

The cutest! ★

[ yeah, he'll admit to that with no shame ]

But no, not a mascot? I'm just me, that's all!

[chosenwang]

Very cute! You are quite handy with getting Psyche to go along with our schemes. Did you know almost helped with our monopoly?

[microtransactions]

I was listening in when you two were talking at the stand we set up, [ he will also admit to this without shame ] but did she actually follow up with you later?

[chosenwang]

Unfortunately she escaped without being wrapped up in the plans.

[microtransactions]

Alas.

[ a tiny sigh. ]

It's so hard to find good co-conspirators these days... I mean collaborators!

I definitely mean collaborators. ★

[dakicover]

[ that was so blatant…]

[microtransactions]

[ don't hate because you ain't cute, crea ◢(0◡˂̵ ✧)◣ ]

[diabolizes]

Good one.

[ And here he is, taking a drink! ]

[microtransactions]

I play to win. ★

[ you don't win at nhie magolor come on, ]

[finalmix]

...... how far back are we talking, hm?

[microtransactions]

... are you saying you didn't look like this before recently?

I kind of meant. Before this place.

But you know what, now I'm curious?

[finalmix]

Ehhhhhhhhhhh.

[ ............ yeah okay fine. he'll share, it's not like anyone's gonna assassinate him now right (lol) ]

I was human once? It's complicated but I have to Tune myself down to this frequency to be seen and now I'm kind of stuck in this form.

[microtransactions]

Ah, so you basically just look like this for our sake because you're a lot scarier and weird looking proper, gotcha.

[ this checks out, sure. ]

... Well, I still say you're human-shaped either way, so. [ wobbles a hand. ] Ehhhhhh?

[finalmix]

Taller, too. [ hee hee. ] Which was helpful when we were trying to find out who was taller than six feet~

[ sighs @ footprints.








anyway he'll just drink the wine regardless because why not. close enough. ]

Pretty sure at least some people here would be blinded by my true form.

There's a reason why I usually need a proxy to get things done~

[chrysaline]

[ Oh good, she's back in time for party games. She can take a drink for this. ]

That feels a little unfair, but... I guess it's more unfair that you suddenly have to be a human?

[ (oid)? ]

[microtransactions]

It's been an interesting experience, I'll say that! And I guess it gives me good ammo for games like these.

[ he is aiming for as much of the population as possible, okay. ]

Glad to see you doing okay, though? I kinda wanted to check up on you after all that yesterday, but I figured you probably had enough people crowding you in the aftermath already.

[chrysaline]

And when you go home, maybe you can use it in the other direction!

[ Play to win! She respects that. He gets a smile for that, though. ]

I'm sorry if I worried you. It really was just a little bit of an illness. I'm almost feeling like myself again.

[microtransactions]

[ he snickers a little, folding a laugh into his hand. ]

I literally only know one human, hee hee.

[ well, before all this, anyway. ]

Though all of us don't tend to come together all that often, so I wouldn't get the chance to play this card too much! Hmm, what to do... Oh well. I'm sure it'll come up some day.

But that's good to hear! No lasting side-effects or symptoms, huh?

[chrysaline]

I hope you get a chance. Even if you're always traveling, you must miss your friends sometimes.

[ She wants to see them... more cats. Adorable.

She gives her head a little shake. ]

I don't think so. I'm trying to avoid using my powers for a little longer, just in case. I'll try to remember to ask Doctor Baizhu to take a look later if I get a chance.

[microtransactions]

You do that! And. Ehe, well. I've actually kind of sort of put down roots where they live these days?

[ he's 'moved to planet popstar,' whatever that means when he's got a ship that can sail through time and space and alternate dimensions. ]

I don't know if I'd say I've settled down. I don't know if I ever will do that, truth be told. There's just so much out there...

[ ... ]

But I guess it is nice, having somewhere to come back to.

[chrysaline]

Really? Then you definitely have to see each other more while you're all there!

[ Is it too early to start planning for a party? Assuming they'll make it home might be bad luck, but... ]

That sounds like the best of both. You can see everything you want to see, but you know there are still people waiting for you.
