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

(( ooc: Don't forget to turn in your AC for Week 3, submit your memory regains, and put in your benefactor threads! ))

[ Teamwork!! It makes the dream work, you know. ]

Alright, that's a good idea. And... have you taste tested the berries yet?

[induality]

Y-yeah. Earlier. Because I wanted something sweet and something sour...

[If she tries them Max will note that together they create a taste similar to lemons, but sweeter.]

[helladoptera]

Good idea. Alright, just making sure they wouldn't... some of those berries are weird.

[ s/o to akande ]

I'll work on prepping them for you, if you want. You can focus on the... cake part of the cake.

[induality]

What about them?

[...well she hasn't died yet so it's probably fine... Still, it's funny, remembering how fearful she was of all the unknown food at first. Yet here she is. Adapting. Making a cake with it.]

[helladoptera]

Uh... nothing super bad, but some of them are kind of like... weed lite, I guess? I don't know how to describe it. Akande and I accidentally had some yesterday.

[induality]

Like... the drug?

[That certainly gets her attention. Provided she doesn't mean it in the general sense--]

[helladoptera]

Yes? Yeah, pretty much. But uh... if that was one of the berries you grabbed, you'd know by now.

[induality]

That's... good?

[I mean. That they aren't going into this cake she worked so hard on.]

Wh-who keeps something like that in a prison greenhouse?

[helladoptera]

I have no idea, but... alien berries are just weird sometimes, I guess. At least it doesn't seem like there's any poison in there?

[ Less deadly stuff in here than one would think, funny enough. ]

Anyway, I need to... check these for stems and stuff and wash them, right?

[induality]

I guess they could have different effects on us...

[Still. Good reminder that they should be careful...]

R-right. I picked them pretty quickly this morning.

[helladoptera]

Roger roger. On it, captain.

[ And she'll set to it! ]

So uh... how are you doing, Fukawa? How's the writing?

[induality]

[How is she doing. She has to give it a moment of thought.]

Even though it's Hope's Peak all over again, it's... this time is different for me. In Hope's Peak I kept to myself, locked myself up in my room. I didn't have to share a room with anyone. I didn't get so... attached. There are... a lot more people I'm worried about now.

[Books though. Books.]

I just finished something. It could probably use a little work yet, but the story is finished.

[So. Editing.]

[helladoptera]

I... guess that'd be a good strategy, if we had our own rooms. But I think coming together is important, you know? If we're gonna... find a way out of here someday, somehow.

[ Even if that seems like a pipe dream, she's been very focused on staying hopeful since they had their last major talk. ]

I'm glad. What's it about?

[induality]

Maybe people will stop this before it gets worse. At some point they all have to realize that the only way we'll really survive is if we find our own way out.

[She can't deny that it would be... nice.]

W-well there were a lot of books about space in the library, so... I decided to do some research. It's about a shuttle that crashes on an unknown planet.

[helladoptera]

I have to believe everyone'll figure it out. Just... gotta give it some time.

[ And hope Blaze Dudely doesn't give them another Call to Action. ]

Ooh, cool. What happens then?
