Week 1

[grimgrinningghosts]

[Well that was a busy day, huh? But despite all that, a good majority of you are reasonable people, and are smart enough to find an escape without resorting to deadly violence. Maybe if you put your heads together, you'll find a way to get out of here! After all, the host is practically in shambles already, what can he do?

The whole first floor of the manor is open for your leasure now, with the only change being that there's now a set of rules in the foyer hanging on the wall.

Let the games begin.]

[MONDAY TUESDAY WEDNESDAY THURSDAY FRIDAY SATURDAY]

[Just gonna flip through his pages to find Neku's page don't mind him.]

I was just curious about what a "Reaper's Game" was.

[psychopinesis]

[That would count as a weird question if he hadn't told Noby about the game the day before.]

A game dead people get to play for a chance to come back to life. You have to complete a bunch of timed missions over the course of a week, and then you're scored on how well you accomplish those missions.

[There's more to it, but that's the basic gist.]

[nachosquire]

......so that means you're dead?

[That's two for two on the "probably should be dead but are here anyway" scale.. if you don't count the ghost hosts, anyway.]

[psychopinesis]

[Okay, hold on, he has to think about that for a minute.

There's nothing to indicate he's in another Game--no timer, no missions, no other Players apparently--and he doesn't remember dying a third time for any reason.

He could be in some sort of Purgatory.]

It means I died at least once.

[nachosquire]

Dude.

[Don't voice any of that, it'd probably keep Marco up at night to think about honestly.]

So is this, like, your afterlife or something? Oh god, does that mean I died?!

[nevermind]

It'd make sense since Lekmet's here...! He's not supposed to be here! He died on the battlefield!

[psychopinesis]

I hope this isn't the afterlife. I don't remember dying again, so I don't think it is. Joshua would know, but I can't contact him.

[If the whole thing isn't his fault. Neku doesn't think so, but there's still the small possibility.]

Who's Lekmet?

[nachosquire]

The goat!!

[He probably sounds like he's insane right now.]

Haven't you read any of those descriptions on the wall in the other room?!

[psychopinesis]

Not extensively! I would have paid more attention if I'd known I was going to be quizzed on it later.

[They've been there two days so far, he's had other things to do, like search for secret passages]

[nachosquire]

How could you not have read any of them? What if someone here was a murderer or something?!

[well they're all going to be murderers pretty soon but]

[psychopinesis]

I had other priorities! Listen, I'll read them when I get a chance, if that'll make you feel any better.

[Speak for yourself, Marco. Neku doesn't murder people who don't deserve it.]
