( MINGLE - WEEK 3 )

[abhoth]

SURVIVORS: 36 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 doesn't seem like there's anything out of the ordinary on this lovely Monday morning. How quaint. As a reminder, we are now accepting murder proposals for Week 3! If you're interested in having your character commit a murder this week, be sure to send in your proposal before Tuesday, 9:00 PM EST. Without any murders we can't have a murdergame, so go forth and let the bodies hit the floor! As always, feel free to PM us or send us a PP over plurk if you have any questions!

Are you sure you weren't trying to kill me with this?

[He'll be tossing the paper back at Dipper('s head).]

[pinesfortruth]

[he flails a bit with it but does, eventually, manage to catch it. coordination thy name is not dipper]

How would that kill you? Papercut to the throat?

[disinterested]

I'm sure a kid as clever as you could get creative.

[pinesfortruth]

Look, if I was ever going to kill someone, it would not be with "ball of paper to the face". That's just. Bad.

[disinterested]

"Bad"? Have you put much thought into how you would kill someone?

[pinesfortruth]

I haven't! I'm just saying, if I'm going to be horribly executed in front of everyone, I don't want it to be for a stray paper ball.

[disinterested]

Oh, I don't know. You could probably try and excuse it as accidental murder?

[pinesfortruth]

You are really obsessed with this idea of me killing you.

[disinterested]

Well, not me in particular. But it's fascinating to see what people have to think and say on the topic of killing one another.

[pinesfortruth]

How is it that every single conversation we have, you manage to sound more and more like a serial killer? [why are you like this, girge!! mabel is making you do fingerpainting for A REASON] Isn't what people say super not relevant anyway? Everyone here's always going to act like they'd never kill anyone... present company excluded [GIRGE], but I'm not holding my hopes up that come Friday we'll magically not find seven more dead bodies just kind of hanging out like it's a corpse party.

[disinterested]

Depending on how you define the duties of a front-lines soldier, I am a serial killer.

[SHRUG]

You're right: words don't matter. But it's one way to pass the time, isn't it?

[pinesfortruth]

... Isn't it closer to a mercenary? Soldiers are usually paid.

[he rocks on the balls of his feet. what nervousness. this is a totally normal thing for kids to do]

Is that why you were lying down? You were trying to pass the time?

[disinterested]

I get paid. [With freedom.] And yes. Am I not allowed to have hobbies?
