Week 4

[Four weeks in and almost half the Champions' original numbers are gone. Eight people in the span of a month and, even with the Overseers seeming increase in empathy for the remaining Champions, there is no end in sight for the Champion Excellence Program.

And again at 7 am on Sunday the mechanical woman's voice chimes to awaken the remaining champions on Sunday morning. After the initial wake-up call the message tacked on:]

Congratulations, Champions! By surviving your third trial, you have unlocked the fourth floor of the ship. A new mini map has been added to your P.I.P.! To access the fourth floor please stand on the teleporter and select the floor you wish to be teleported to.

[And again the Champions are awakened they have regained one new memory from the ones they've lost. Starting again on Sunday, as well, Jamie and Bolton will be back to their usual office hours in their usual locations.]

Sunday Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday

[ooc: welcome to week 4, everyone! Check-in has begun and don't forget to submit your memory regains!]

[Yurika pops into the cafe with a wave.]

Ricky-chan! Isn't the new floor amazing?

That's one word for it.

[The Roombakitties don't seem to be doing as much for her mood as she'd hoped.]

Maybe I'm just in a better mood this week. Are you feeling okay?

We have an incinerator that's sized for disposing of bodies and a pool that can have the top freeze over if someone presses a button.

That's certainly a practical way to put it, if a little depressing -- wait, it can freeze?

Yeah. That's why there are ice skates and stuff. Although I'm not sure it would actually be safe to skate on it.

[guess who didn't particularly want to wait thirty minutes for this bullshit]

It would probably take a while to freeze over. Now I want to try, though! For fun, not for murder.

Well, you can try it if you want. I'm staying away.

[Not gonna be caught dead in that murder pool, pun sort of intended but not really. ~~Let's see how long it takes for someone to change her mind.~~]

I don't think it'll be that hazardous if you wait long enough. I'm sure there are things like that everywhere. Besides, I've been wanting a pool!

It still seems like it was designed to be used for murder.

[Which means it probably was.]

You could say that about everything in the entire space station, and most of those things won't be helpful in teaching Xander-san how to swim.

[Blinkblink.]

You said teaching Xander to swim?

He looked embarrassed when he told me he didn't know how, so I said if we got a pool, he could learn! I guess Nohr is landlocked, so he never got the chance.
