WEEK ZERO: ARRIVAL (OVERFLOW)

[retellers]

WEEK ZERO: ARRIVAL (43 remain) Whatever each character was doing—chatting with friends, going to bed, saving the world—ceases. In fact, it's likely nothing more than a groggy memory now, as they open their eyes to unfamiliar surroundings. Apparently, they took a nap right in the middle of a small town, plopped outside on the paved road. Ow? Oh, but it looks like they've been given a goodie bag. Everyone likes gifts, right? Inside, it contains: - a single random one of the following headbands and sparklers - packets of tea - one unlabeled pill - a rock that resembles the galaxy - if they're of age, a mini bottle of alcohol; if they're underage, a can of Mountain D*w Baja Blast instead - a singular condom - a single random one of these pillows (how did this fit?) - a handheld device Should they boot up the device, the screen helpfully informs them that it's a Participant Help System (PHS). Not much on it, but it does have a few apps, including a memo one for taking notes. There's also a messaging system, though it's only capable of receiving messages, not sending any. As a matter of fact, there's an alert for a new message already. Maybe it'll explain what's going on. Good evening, everyone. Uh, how are we sure they’re arriving in the evening? Just say “hello”! Or “greetings”! Greetings is fancy, right? Oh that’s true. Greetings, everyone. That’s better? Yes! Except maybe we take out the that’s better part in the final version. Will do! We’re sorry that we’re not here jklk oh no how do i erase what i wrote. Where is the question mark. Help press backspace. What is a backspace it’s written on the keyboard. Do you even know how to read? right now. There are a lot of things happening that’s so vague? Could we maybe TRY to not be ominous, guys??, It’s going to be ominous no matter what we say, so who cares so we need time to best prepare for you all. We will greet you properly soon, so please make yourselves at home! There are a lot of places to explore, and the kitchen has a lot of delicious food. Please don’t be shy, but also, don’t damage anything. It’s a little inconvenient. They’re going to do it just because you sound so fucking whiny. I’m sorry oh this is how you write somewhere else. Please do not fight or do. We don’t control your life choices. No please do not fight how do i make an exclamation mark maybe we should’ve gotten someone else to write the draft of the message? No offense. I’m sorry Sorry stop apologizing. No one else volunteered. Maybe we’ll luck out and none of them know how to read Thank you for your time! We’ll see you soon. Also, we promise you haven’t been kidnapped or anything! Oh dear. I don’t know if this is going to be edited, so if it isn’t, then I do apologize to the participants for our lack of organization. We’re doing our best! Probably. Er, what? Unfortunately, it seems as though that's the only info they're given for now. In the meantime, why not explore the surrounding area? A number of buildings are locked, and the Planetarium appears to be closed, but there's enough to keep the characters occupied for a day or two. They might even want to get to know their fellow "participants" better, while they're at it.

[Kano what the FUCK]

Do you have a sweet tooth, Sir Baron?

[lightly teasing again, BUT. she has finished the tea and is bringing the warmed kettle over with a small cup!]

[suddenlybees]

No?

[ Sometimes you enjoy the crunch. Does nobody eat plain raw sugar? no? okay. ]

I'm, like, not too picky about things, so you don't have to try so hard to make things delicious! Oh, oh, but— if you're like one of those chefs who can make people cry with their food, I want to try that!

[maidforservice]

You could have easily fooled me.

[KANO YOU ARE A MESS]

And I'm afraid I've never made anyone cry with my cooking, and I don't wish to begin. As for you not being very picky-- well.

I feel as though I have observed otherwise.

[anyway she is pouring him some tea!!]

[suddenlybees]

[ Kano, with his carefully selected pile of cilantro on the side of his plate to snack on, ]

No? They're, like, good tears! I think. I bet the Keebler elf would do it.

[maidforservice]

[JUST TELL HER YOU'RE A VEGETARIAN???]

Perhaps. But neither of us will know until you catch it for me.

[suddenlybees]

[ If he tells her he's a vegetarian she won't roast him Keebler elves!!! ]

Haha, I guess it still falls on me in the end! Thanks for the tea~ I'm gonna, like, sugar crash for ten hours and then I'll get right on that.

[maidforservice]

[SHE ISN'T GOING TO ROAST HIM KEELBER ELVES ANYWAY BECAUSE HE WON'T FIND ANY??]

Ten hours? My, how much sugar have you had already today?

[suddenlybees]

[ LUP CONFIRMED THE EXISTENCE OF A KEEBLER ELF AND SHE WOULD NOT LIE TO HIM ]

A cup just now, and, like, seven sweet potato fries earlier.

[maidforservice]

[DOUBT DOT PNG]

If you were to add some protein to your diet, Sir Baron, then you wouldn't have to worry about ten hour sugar crashes.

[THE PROTEIN DOESN'T HAVE TO BE MEAT]

[suddenlybees]

[ Probably... It would help if Kano's day one diet did not consist solely of sugar, carbs, and some blood THANKS BRITT ]

Um, hm. I did make a peanut butter taco earlier? But it was for somebody else to eat.

[maidforservice]

[i'm screaming someone teach this boy proper nutrition]

That most certainly doesn't count.

[suddenlybees]

[ cook him family meals and get a family to sit down together and he will eat ]

They made me a strawberry smoothie in exchange?

[ Milk is protein? Milk is protein. ]

[maidforservice]

[SHE WILL DO THIS ONE DAY DON'T TEST HER]

Did you actually drink it?

[it is but also hm]

[suddenlybees]

[ Dana dropped the thread so I get to decide: ]

...No.
