( MINGLE - WEEK 2 )
 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! ic rulebook | locations | statuses | room assignments private conversations | ic profiles | graveyard | full navigation |

We have nothing but time, Velvet-san. Unfortunately.
[ he doesn't resist her grabbing his hand. it's actually kind of nice, minus the part where she's probably squeezing down on it really hard. ]
I want to help clean. It's either I clean here or I go ruin something else... unless you teach me the ways of cleaning, that is.
no subject
[With that, she tosses his hand away and goes to place the rag down on the counter. She gathers some of her cleaning supplies and hands him a few different things.]
Here. You'll want to use this. And this is how you should do it... You'll just make the stains worse otherwise.
[Velvet demonstrates her method and then waits for him to copy, to make sure he's not gonna just start ruining everything again.]
Do they have machines for this in your world too?
no subject
Thank you. [ he does indeed note how she goes about cleaning, taking this task he's bestowed upon himself very seriously. after watching for a bit, he mimics her motions with the supplies she's allowed him to borrow. ] So, I was pushing the blood further into the wall with how I was doing it. Good to know...
[ and here he was being hopeful that Velvet would take his hand and guide him herself. dreamy sigh. ]
Not really, no. There's steamers you can use, but it's mainly things for floors. Like a buffing machine, for example.
no subject
[You're just bad at it, is what she means to say. She's stopped her cleaning for now in order to observe him, still making sure everything's okay. This is why it's better if just one person cleans... His cleaning is fine now that he's doing it her way, but-]
Why are you smiling...? Is something funny?
no subject
[ the smile turns into a brief frown when he thinks on how things have changed since he's arrived her. there should be no time for jokes or playing around, and yet, it's one of the only things he knows to do at this point. ]
Nothing funny. I was just happy that you allowed me a chance to assist. You're rather skilled at this, after all.
