Week 2

[airlockedmods]

[Other than the reappearance of the Overseer, there's no real change in the routine. PAL still makes the morning and night time announcements through the PIP on each Champion's arm, and still the Champion unitards are freshly laundered and re-hung each morning in their closets.

No other floors unlock, but Cece and Kip will still be appearing randomly to chit-chat.

All you know is... something has to change soon.]

[new shorts get, they can't be dumber looking than anything the cast of 999 wore] The nursing home and weird candy kind of grandma, or a Golden Girls grandma?

[misanthropicprinciple]

[HEY.]

What does a Golden Girls grandma even smell like?

[getgood]

[one word: Santa]

Perfume and, like, they've been going at the scotch all day.

[misanthropicprinciple]

[June's outfit is cute!]

Uh, more like the first kind, except more ricey and cottony.

[So, more like one might imagine Junpei's grandmother might smell like, if we had any idea what any of his family was remotely like at all.]

[getgood]

So like the difference between grape and grape flavor.

But yeah. Why do you think we're getting all this?

[misanthropicprinciple]

...Can't very well expect us to solve a puzzle with no pieces, can they?

[getgood]

Like a grandma candle?

[misanthropicprinciple]

You never know. I've had candles come in surprisingly handy.

that icon is so upsetting

[getgood]

I guess we don't have anything else if there aren't backup generators.

It's one of my favorites : )

[misanthropicprinciple]

Uh, if the generators fail, I think we'll have problems beyond reading lights.

Re: It's one of my favorites : )

[getgood]

... well, yeah, but. [She didn't think about that.]

[misanthropicprinciple]

I do think it has to do with providing us... if not tools, then some kind of motivation.

[Why else would they send him that outfit, after all?]

Or somebody's idea of it, anyway. Something to keep us going.

[getgood]

Like they want to see what we do with it.

[misanthropicprinciple]

Yeah. Half experiment, half show.

[getgood]

So why hasn't anybody gotten like, a gun or anything?

[misanthropicprinciple]

Too easy? A loaded gun changes the distribution of power in a group real fast, real hard. Once someone has that much of an advantage, the results become predictable.

[getgood]

Yeah, we'd all start getting scared.

[misanthropicprinciple]

Starting? Hah, I guess.

A gun is an endgame piece. If they're going to play something like that, it won't be until we're close to the end.
