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]

Exactly! Thank you for agreeing with me.

... Want some? I don't have another bowl, but you can just pour some cereal in your mouth and then some milk. It's basically the same thing.

[jesus it's like having another Louie around]

Uh... no. I think I'll pass, thanks.

[he will stick around though, even if it requires a topic change from disgusting sugary foods for the moment.]

What're you watching? Not more of that Twilight Zone stuff, I hope.

[hallotween]

Gosh, no. I'm done with that for a while. [until she stops hating Rod's face. which may never happen.] This is Frankenstein! A mad scientist brings a dead body back to life, but it doesn't end well.

[theduck]

Y'know, I think I have heard of this one before. [which surprises even him, actually, given that Marnie's taste in media includes obscure nonsense like works from whoever 'Charles Dickens' is]

I get the feeling none of the movies in this place end well.

[hallotween]

Horror usually doesn't. Everyone ends up dying-- except for the ones where there's one girl that survives the whole thing.

[theduck]

Well, if it turns out we're in one of those movies, I'm rooting for you. But hopefully it won't come down to just one of us. Or none of us.

[hallotween]

If we keep losing people at this rate... We're even losing our captors. That can't be a good sign.

I wonder if the other games were as crazy as this one.

[theduck]

I mean, maybe all of our captors will die before everyone in the hotel dies. They can't have that many backups, right? They can't keep us here if they're all dead.

Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if they were. But then again, we've got some, uh, pretty interesting people here... maybe the others were a lot more boring.

[hallotween]

That's true. One down, who knows how many left to go.

[pause] I wonder who they are. How many of them survived this thing. If they know we're here, too.

[theduck]

If their game went anything like how ours is going, there's probably three people left. Maybe less. I wouldn't get my hopes up too high-- if they knew we were here, we probably would've seen some sort of sign from them.

[hallotween]

Well, if it means anything, you're one of a few people I don't think I could do this thing without.

[theduck]

Y'know what? Same here. If any of us are gonna make it out of here, I'd bet all of Scrooge's vault that you'll be one of 'em.

[hallotween]

I've just been trying to do things the way I think my grandma would. It's been working so far.
