Week 1

[grimgrinningghosts]

[Now that the Narrator is done explaining the situation, you all have time to assess the situation and maybe even work together to find a way out. After all, clearly the Narrator is being over dramatic and it can't be that hard to escape out of here without murdering everyone, right?

But, with the doors outside indeed locked and all the windows unbreakable, it might not be a bad idea to explore the hotel, either for alternative methods of escape or to relieve boredom. Your Narrator is also now available for private chat in case you want to interrogate him or throw more stuff at his face.

If the locked doors aren't bad enough, when everyone goes back to the lobby, they'll notice a plaque on the front desk. If you thought your Narrator wasn't serious before, this is damning evidence to the contrary.

Either way, we really do hope you enjoy your stay in this hotel.]

[ Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday Saturday ]

{OOC And this'll be the last mod post for the week! Feel free to drop your coins into the penny press once you've earned them. And because this is a peace week, there will be no murder committed!  And if you plan on investigating, just let us know in your toplevel by putting in INVESTIGATION. Have fun while you still can!]

[Aren't mice supposed to be particularly crafty, Virgil thinks. But he complies anyway, it's not like he'd ignore someone who asks for help]

There you go. So you think you can get out of here that way? There could be a basement, I suppose, but I'm not sure they'd be so careless they'd leave a way out down there.

[He's hoping he's wrong about that, of course]

[stenchus_rodentus]

Either I find an escape route or we merely find more to this inn which will lead to an escape.

[Welp this can't go wrong.]

Better than waiting for inspiration from the mundane so to speak.

[coulombslaw]

Good luck.

[You're really going to need it. At least Virgil would be willing to eat crow if you prove him wrong -- supposing you don't scram once you find a escape route. May as well try to make sure Ratigan doesn't flee the coop prematurely...]

If you actually find something, I'll reward you. Name something you want.

[stenchus_rodentus]

[Hmm someone is offering something? Well isn't that intriguing. He pets his whiskers before the answer 'suddenly' comes to him.]

Perhaps...yeeees. I think information on your home would be excellent compensation.

[coulombslaw]

You got it. Find something, come back and I'll tell you anything you want to know.

[Carefully edited if he considers necessary, but for the most part he's willing to talk -- even if Ratigan doesn't find something]

[stenchus_rodentus]

You'll be the first to know ta ta~

[And forward Ratigan goes. Surely this won't be a big nothing shaft leading nowhere.]

[coulombslaw]

[Virgil waits beside the shaft. Ratigan is bound to be gone for a long time, but if this will actually get results, he's wants them as soon as possible. He even brings a sandwich for himself while he waits.

He thinks of bringing Ratigan something, but what does he like? Bringing random cheese seems a bit condescending, and it's too late to ask. He'll have to do it once Ratigan is back]

Faun' 'thin'?

[Don't talk with your mouth full, Virgil. But yeah, give him a second. Once he swallows...]

Found anything?
