week 4

[airlockedmods]

[Four weeks in the Starfield Penitentiary and seven people have lost their lives to Blaze Dudely's cruel game. At some point the robots cleaned up the mess left behind and by Sunday the involved rooms (including the fridge) are all clean and free of blood. In fact there's no sign left of any of the deaths that have happened on the ship so far by at least the next day. The only physical signs that people are gone are the empty beds.

On Sunday morning, you may find that you're recovering a a few other things as well - both strange dreams and some new items.

In addition, there's a new set of doors at the end of the corridor, in the space between the infirmary and the exercise yard. Looks like you've got a new wing to explore.]



Sunday | Monday | Tuesday | Wednesday | Thursday

[ She takes it. Life is strange, man, might as well eat an alien berry or two. ]

Bottoms up. Or... berries up, I guess.

[ And she eats it. ]

[goldrighthand]

Berries up.

[They wouldn't have it in here if it wasn't Safe, right?

Aaand he puts it in his mouth.

And watches her.

Quick, roll Observation to see if he swallowed!]

[helladoptera]

[ A 2, rip in rip.

But she does chew and swallow. And... ]

I don't... feel poisoned.

[goldrighthand]

Mm. [And he'll just kind of work his mouth a bit. Doesn't taste bad, anyway, and no immediate effect on someone smaller than him is promising...] Sometimes it takes hours.

[helladoptera]

Are there any kinds of berries on Earth that can kill a human if they eat just one?

[goldrighthand]

[One?...he considers.]

...a child, perha- [well there it goes down the hatch. He makes a face, reaching up to his mouth. HE WANTED TO LET IT LINGER A LITTLE WHILE MORE AND SEE IF ANYTHING WENT NUMB, DANGIT...]

...it would make sense that nothing in here is toxic to us. [He may or may not be saying that mostly to himself.] Unless Captain Dudely imported something. [WHICH HE...HIGHLY FUCKING DOUBTS, and that's obvious.]

[helladoptera]

[ Max shrugs. ]

This is a prison, it would be bad to put... you know, poison in here.

[goldrighthand]

Mm. Unless it was for other species.

[Still eyeing Max critically well she looks fine maybe he's being paranoid. Akande takes a second look at the plant, tweaking a leaf.]

It wasn't just humans before.

[helladoptera]

Right...

[ She looks... a little more intently at the plant than she otherwise would. ]

... they're pretty berries, though.

[goldrighthand]

[i mean it's a very pretty plant. all iridescent. look at how it catches the light]

Mmm. What should we call it?

[they're naming it now. That's A Thing.]

[helladoptera]

Uh... I dunno. They don't, like, already have names?

[goldrighthand]

Do you know it?
