Week 2

[grimgrinningghosts]

[It's been one whole week, and no one has died yet. For someone who seemed so sure that someone would die, it seems as if The Narrator was wrong about anyone killing another person. But after awhile, the hotel might seem pretty dull. There is only so much to do in here, and if you don't enjoy books and old board games, it's hard to keep you entertained unless you like marathons of Muppet Treasure Island.

But you can keep this up, right?

24 guests remain.]

[SUNDAY MONDAY TUESDAY WEDNESDAY THURSDAY]

{OOC: Don't forget to turn in your Week 1/Intro AC! Since Peace Week is over, Tuesday and onward are currently locked for the upcoming motive. Everything is going to change soon}

Like a clue, or something to contact someone outside.

[hallotween]

Oh. Then, not useful. At all.

[coulombslaw]

Seriously? [Well that's disappointing] Looks like this thing really doesn't have anything other than junk. I'm curious what it'd give me, though.

[hallotween]

Trust me when I tell you that curiosity dismembers the cat.

[coulombslaw]

Come on, what's the worst that could happen?

[As if he was 100% sure nothing can go wrong -- yeah, right -- he approaches the penny press to get items]

Not knowing what you'll get is kind of fun.

[hallotween]

[are you FUCKING--]

Virgil, there is a human heart in this box!

[coulombslaw]

['About time you said what's in there!' he thinks. Why didn't you peek over her shoulder like 99.99% of the general population in the world would have done, Virgil?]

A-Are you sure it's a human heart? It could belong to something else?

[At least that gets him to step away from the penny press]

[hallotween]

[SHE THOUGHT SHE WAS EFFECTIVELY WARNING HIS STUPID ASS AWAY]

Even if it isn't, it's still somebody's heart! It's not exactly something you can live without!

[coulombslaw]

Okay, let's not panic. Deep breaths, deep breaths... [That's just as much for him as it is for her. What's one supposed to do when you find a maybe-human heart in a box?!] Put that aside for now, we--just do that. We'll think of something.

[Yeah, he's almost panicking, even if he's trying not to show it]

[hallotween]

I can't just leave it alone! [WHAT IF IT GETS LONELY VIRGIL]

[coulombslaw]

[IT'S NOT GOING TO WITHER OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT IF YOU LOOK AWAY, MARNIE]

Yes you can! Look, if you want to know what's the deal with that, then ask the guy who put it in there in the first place!

[The Narrator, in other words. No way he doesn't know!]

[hallotween]

[rolls eyes] Please, like he'll tell us anything. He'll try to be as cryptic as he can so we freak out even more.

[she's still very much not letting the heartbox go?]

[coulombslaw]

It's worth a try! You can't keep that thing with you forever!

[Besides, he helped Chip, maybe he'd be willing to answer a question]

[hallotween]

I told you I can't just abandon it! It was probably a person!
