( MINGLE - WEEK 5 )

[abhoth]

SURVIVORS: ?? 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 Kitchen, Dining Hall and Disposal room are still under constructions. Meals will be served in the Pool/Outdoor Dining Area in the meantime. How quaint. As a reminder, we are now accepting murder proposals for Week 5! 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!

I think it was like... the fastest way she could make sure she killed it or something? It's kind of an odd reflex.

[willremember]

I guess everyone here is from different worlds and can do... Different things... Maybe she's just used to eating her problems.

[pinesfortruth]

I guess that's ... one way to take care of problems? They sure won't come back if you eat them. Unless you get indigestion.

[willremember]

Don't really want to think about that.

[pinesfortruth]

What would that even look like coming back up.

[why did he ask]

[willremember]

Kid.

[ what did i just say. ]

[pinesfortruth]

You're definitely not old enough to call me kid.

[but he is dropping the subject, so]

[willremember]

You're a kid, though.

[ listen her age isn't important she's decided she's An Adult. ]

[pinesfortruth]

I'm not a kid, and you're barely older than I am!

[his annoyance button. the kid thing.]

[willremember]

Then we're both kids.

[ ..... she says, as if she is being mature, but she is scowling at having to concede this ]

[pinesfortruth]

Then that still means you can't call me kid.

[so he wins!!!!]

[willremember]

Sure I can.

[pinesfortruth]

No, because then I'd just call you one right back.

[willremember]

But I'm older.

[pinesfortruth]

By a few months, that doesn't count.

[willremember]

Between you and Mabel, who's older?

[pinesfortruth]

We're twins. There's no older.

[...says the technically younger twin]

[willremember]

So, Mabel.

[ she knows how this works. ]

[pinesfortruth]

By five minutes it doesn't count!!!

[willremember]

But you counted it.

[ five minutes is real specific. ]

[pinesfortruth]

No, I just know it because she lords it over my head all the time.

[willremember]

So it sounds like you're the only one who doesn't think it matters.

[pinesfortruth]

Because it doesn't.

[willremember]

If you say so, Kid.

[pinesfortruth]

Take it back, kid.
