Week 5

[grimgrinningghosts]

[Five deaths in one week, and almost half of the guests have died now. The Narrator is now claiming that the man who's trying to save all the guests is a cold-hearted killer, and he doesn't seem to be lying about this. But on the other hand, that doesn't explain why he continues to do any of this, or if he's even an entirely good guy here.

Whether you like it or not, tension is becoming unusually high in this hotel now.

But hey, at least you get a nice new floor to tide you over.

13 guests remain]

[SUNDAY MONDAY TUESDAY WEDNESDAY THURSDAY]

{ooc: Don't forget to fill in this week's Activity Check! The deadline is 11/01 @ 1 PM EST!}

You could use this to block attacks, or if you really need to, you could hit someone with it. I bet that'd hurt and stop most people.

Will...will you show me how?

[coulombslaw]

Sure! Uh, let me see, there must be something around here I can use...

[He starts looking around for something long he can use, finally settling on taking off the weights of a large barbell, leaving himself with the rod]

Okay, so it's likely you'll get attacked from the front. What's important is to keep the attacker away, like...extending your arms like this? Using the spear to block them?

[She studies the way that Virgil maneuvers his "spear," utilizing it more like a staff, and adjusts her own stance to mirror his actions.]

I think I understand. To keep their weapons away from my body.

[coulombslaw]

Yes, you get it! This could save your life someday.

[BUT NOT ANYTIME SOON, APPARENTLY]

[HA HA...HA...]

I'll keep at it. It's good to feel like I won't be utterly useless in a fight...
