Week 1

[With the introduction to the relationship experiment and their overseeing hosts done with, the Champions are left to their own devices to explore the first floor of the mansion as they please. Cece and Kip will pop-up every once in a while to chit-chat but for the most part they're somewhere inaccessible.

Each morning the Champions are awakened promptly at 7 am by PAL's even, almost laid back voice announcing the time and each evening at 10 pm to announce when the kitchen is closing for the night. Unlike the Overseers, he doesn't seem to be one much for conversation.

Enjoy your week, Champions.]

Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday Saturday

[ooc: welcome to week 1, everyone! This first week is a peace week which means there will be no murder this weekend! Feel free to start submitting threads for the benefactors]

[ He's got a plate full of bacon and eggs, as well as a bunch of fresh grapes. ]

Some of the stuff on mine's fine. [ A beat, after he's done swallowing a bit of bacon. ] But I've never met anyone named Zer0, I've only heard stuff about Pandoran wildlife, because I've literally never been there, and I don't get why Handsome Jack and Hyperion are listed as "dislikes."

[ .... ]

And I don't hit my head that much.

Yeah, from how you talk about Handsome Jack, I'd think that was a huge, huge, huge like for you.

[Such a weird crush, buddy. Must have had your heart broken for it to be a dislike.]

Are you gonna bring that up every time we talk?

[ And in front of everyone!!! Why. ]

Aw, are you upset, Reese's Pieces? Everyone else is airing their dirty laundry, why can't you?

I'm not upset, I just don't get how that matters!

And stop calling me that!

It matters a lot for whoever has their eyes on you.

Why? It's cute.

[ ????? ]

I-- okay, I'm pretty sure that's literally the last thing on people's minds right now.

[ HUFF. POUT. ]

It's not cute.

Not according to Nishitano.

[Awwwww are you really pouting?]

What would you prefer then, Rhys? [Which comes out as Wheeze.]

I couldn't give less of a crap what that guy says.

[ He is pouting. So much. ]

... Rhys. Rhys. Like "Reese's Pieces," but without the "apostrophe-s Pieces."

Hey, he's not so bad.

... I feel like you're making fun of my accent.

For some reason I get the feeling you haven't actually talked to the guy for more than five seconds.

[ HE'S THE WORST!!! ]

Wh-what? No! I'm just trying to get you to hear what my name's supposed to sound like!

I know he gets turned on, like seriously turned on, by violence. It's a regret I have, but otherwise he's not bad.

[....]

Rhys. [Wheeze

SHE'S TRYING]

[ For a good few moments, he doesn't say anything, because literally what the fuck. ]

... I'm really glad I wasn't stupid enough to fight him. Oh, god. [ Why does everything happen so much. ]

Rhys.

.... dude, I don't think you could take him in the first place.

[She's getting frustrated.]

That's what I'm saying!

I could totally take him. [ He lifts his hand. ] Robot. Arm.

[ Rhys pinches the bridge of his nose, then sighs. ]

.... Close enough.

Robot arm does not mean super strength.

[SHE LOOKS READY TO CRY]

No! It's not! Look, I'm trying, and you're the only one who has a problem with how I say their name.

[ oh god OH GOD ABORT ABORT ]

H-hey, hey-- look it's-- it's really not a big deal! Seriously, I-- oh god, please don't cry. It's just a name, it's fine!

It's not fine! This is why I nickname people, you dick!

[Someone has a hangup, and it comes with names like that and accents.]

[ oh no

he's going to regret this. ]

I-- [ He hangs his head. ] ... I guess... the nickname's fine. Just-- I'm sorry, okay?

[See? Was that so hard?]

... [She nods curtly.] Complain about it again, and I'll tell everyone what you just did.

Please don't.

[ Wow, that was an automatic response. Rhys rubs the back of his neck. Golly, this is awkward. ]

[Nari rubs her eyes, sniffling softly.]

Are all hackers asses like you?

I-it's not really a... hacker thing...

[ Look at least he can admit he's a butthead. ]

...Why "pieces"? Because- because of the prosthetic arm?

[That's rude, Nari.]

No. Reese's Pieces are a candy back home. I have trouble with his name. It's easier to call him that than Rhys. [Which sounds like Whees when she says it.]
