( MINGLE - WEEK 2 )

[abhoth]

SURVIVORS: 40 The sun is shining, the air conditioner units hum as they always do, and a gentle morning breeze blows against the windows. The scent of pine cones and evergreen follow you wherever you go in the motel, save for the parking lot and outdoor pool. It seems like someone was very generous with the detergent while moping the floors. The two grandfather clocks (one on each floor) will ring with each passing hour, indicating the time of day without fail. With this knowledge — they'll note the motel will continue to be surrounded by fog until 8:00 AM on the dot. It is at that hour that the fog will begin to recede. Not enough to reveal the whole city, but enough to allow residents to explore some of the buildings surrounding the motel. And speaking of the motel, it seems like the Storage room has unlocked itself overnight. How quaint. Welcome to Week 2's mingle, everyone! As of this week, we are now accepting murder proposals. If you're interested in having your character murder someone this week, please send in your proposal before Tuesday, 9:00 PM EST. We'll be contacting you on plurk over the week to finalize the details, or ask for rescheduling if necessary. As always, feel free to PM us or send us a PP over plurk if you have any questions!

Oh...!

[He does smack her, right on the cheek, but... it's an accident, so it's fine. She takes a step back while he calms down, giving him a chance to take in his surroundings.]

...I was passing by and I saw you... um, asleep on the floor. It didn't look very comfortable...

[forlease]

Sorry, I didn't mean to fall asleep... I didn't even know that I had. [ Probably because it was less "casually falling asleep" and more "passing out from exhaustion" but you know, details. ]

If you had left me I probably would have been okay. It didn't wake me up, so it couldn't have been that uncomfortable.

[ "Probably" he says, rubbing his eyes. ]

[thawedheart]

No, it's okay... it's been hard to sleep this week, hasn't it?

[And because of that - her expression becomes a little contrite as she realizes... he had probably really needed the rest. Oops.]

I'm sorry, I didn't mean to wake you...! I hope you managed to get at least a little rest...

[forlease]

It's okay. [ He's doing his best to appear alert. ] I shouldn't be sleeping out here anyway. It's probably better that you woke me up, actually.

[ I mean he's basically a sitting target?? ]
