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.]

I don't either. Or why we're in space in the future.

[misanthropicprinciple]

I don't buy that.

[Flat and immediate rejection.]

I see that's what they want us to think. But just because that's what we see doesn't mean it's what's there.

[nojohnyouare]

...How?

[the dome is right there. headtilt.]

[misanthropicprinciple]

With enough money, time, and manpower... someone with a twisted mind can set up any kind of structure to make those inside believe they're somewhere they're not.

For example, say you were in a room with round windows and a picture of a ship. If the window cracked and suddenly saltwater started rushing in, where would you think you were?

[nojohnyouare]

Submarine.

[...]

Submarine of death.

[misanthropicprinciple]

...Yeah, okay. Close enough.

[The answer was "a ship," but to be fair, he didn't give her enough information, and also it doesn't really matter.]

But isn't it possible that an organization built a building on land in the shape of a submarine, and connected the windows to huge water pipes that would burst at the push of a button?

[nojohnyouare]

...true. But unnecessary.

[misanthropicprinciple]

Sure, it's ridiculous, but you admit it's possible.

[He spreads his arms.]

That's why I'm not making assumptions about where we are until I have a better idea what these clowns want out of holding us here.

[nojohnyouare]

...Maybe. Things are different depending on what you believe. Right?

[misanthropicprinciple]

You have to look at a puzzle from every angle to see the solution.

[nojohnyouare]

...Maybe. And having it solved for you doesn't mean anything.

[misanthropicprinciple]

Well, that depends on if the aim is in the solution or the solving. I wouldn't mind if someone else solved this before me. I just want to get back to what I was doing.

[nojohnyouare]

It was important?

[misanthropicprinciple]

It's important to me.

[nojohnyouare]

...That makes sense. It's probably the same for most people.

[misanthropicprinciple]

It's a safe bet. Kidnapping's rarely a step up for anyone.
