Week 3

[Come week 3 of the Champion Excellence Program the high-flying feelings that came with the dodgeball game last week has dissipated, especially after the...everything that was that trial. Satan Mask sure was a thing that happened.

Just like last week, right on the dot at 7 am, the mechanical woman's voice chimes to awaken the remaining champions on Sunday morning. After the initial wake-up call though there's a new message tacked on:]

Congratulations, Champions! By surviving your second trial, you have unlocked the third floor of the ship. A new mini map has been added to your P.I.P.! To access the second 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 3, everyone! Check-in has begun and don't forget to submit your memory regains!]

[It's certainly curious, but he doesn't want to interrupt. So instead he will come closer and see if Margulis acknowledges him]

[misplacedxsheath]

[He opens his eyes at the sound of footsteps and pushes himself to his feet when he sees who it is.]

Xander, I suppose I oughtn't be surprised you'd come across me here. It's quite a contrast, isn't it?

[kingshaming]

It really is. Almost like we're back on solid ground again.

[misplacedxsheath]

The rudimentary environmental simulator in the other room is capable of that as well. Though it's hardly a true substitute...

[kingshaming]

I've been... avoiding that room. I fear if I let myself see my home my resolve may... falter.

[misplacedxsheath]

It is...difficult, to be separated so indefinitely from the land one calls home.

[Even if you carry some of the blame yourself.]

If you would like, I could program it to replicate conditions on a planet familiar to me. That should carry less temptation.

[kingshaming]

... I would appreciate that, actually. I've been curious about the worlds and realms every one comes from. It is all a bit beyond my ken, but even seeing a small bit would be fascinating.

[misplacedxsheath]

I've seen quite a bit of my own universe...and I think I know of one place that shouldn't be especially strange to you.

[kingshaming]

[He offers that small almost smile, nodding]

Then I will take you up on it. Still, while that place may fool the senses...

[He reaches over, rubbing one of the crops leaves between two fingers]

It isn't fully the same.

[misplacedxsheath]

Not a true recreation, no...but enough to share the general appearance and feel of a place. In fact, I've already shown McBurn the city I once lived in, back before...a period of conflict ended for the worst.

[kingshaming]

A better time, then.

[He's seen his share of razed cities, he won't ask for clarification.]

[misplacedxsheath]

A simpler one, that much is certain. Though even then, the brewing storm was impossible for those of us involved in U-TIC to ignore.
