( 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!

[ That's... a lot to take in. How does one see their loved ones die repeatedly... oh. Thanks time travel. ]

They're not here. They're fine for now. You'll be fine for now, right? Take your time.

[ Nagasone's on the other side of the table, so he has to lean over to rub her back. ]

I know, I know. It's just... I keep seeing them, and I can't even tell who's doing it...

[She buries her face in her hands, trying to stop another sob from escaping.]

Everything's so terrible now.

[fauxtetsu]

Tell me what your friends are like. Your family too. Surely, you have happy memories of them.

[18x0]

I... I've never had a lot of friends. I was never the kind of person people wanted to spend time with.

[She smiles a little through her tears.]

Except my brother. He was always there for me, especially after our parents died. He always took care of me.

[fauxtetsu]

He'd probably be really happy to know you hold him so dearly. What's his name?

[ Brotherly instinct kicks in and he wipes her tears with a towel. ]

I'm... a little envious of him. But even if you see those things... think it can't happen. Because big brothers have to be there for their younger siblings
