Week 3

[grimgrinningghosts]

[Well, someone took the bait last week, and now two people (if either of them could really be called a person) are dead. Not only that, it seems like your first host is now out of commission and replaced by someone who claims to be The Phantom. While he may not be incredibly worse than Facilier yet, it would be a stretch to say he's an improvement.

But, things aren't all bad! When the guests wake up on Sunday, they will find the stairs in the foyer are now open, leading to a whole new floor to explore!

And there's booze so no one will have to drink vinegar anymore.

28 guests remain]

[SUNDAY MONDAY TUESDAY WEDNESDAY THURSDAY]

[The two of them should probably be able to lift it just fine. It's a fairly thin sword. Good for swordfighting, but apparently inneffective against flying children.]

And of course it decides to give me this, instead of, oh, maybe something useful.

[Like a door. Or a less awful host.]

At least he isn't here along with it.

[pinkflip]

"He?" He who? Jane, do you recognize this sword?

[lostbutnotaboy]

I probably should. It's not like I know anyone else with a sword like this.

It belonged to Captain Hook.

[pinkflip]

That sounds like a baddie name if I've ever heard one... Captain Hook, is he someone from Neverland?

[lostbutnotaboy]

He's the pirate captain who's always trying to defeat Peter, but Peter gets the best of him every time. He even brought me to Neverland as part of a trick, but it certainly did blow up in his face.

[She's more amused at the thought now then frightened. She went through a lot.]

[pinkflip]

[ And she's just going to go through even more... ]

I didn't realize some creep brought you there... [ You can only read so much of an invasive bio before you skim. ] I hope your friend Peter really showed him.

[lostbutnotaboy]

[Just another step to climb before the fall.]

Oh, he did. We showed that silly codfish, and he entire crew that they shouldn't have messed with us and the Lost boys.

[Ah, but.... yeah some people didn't know]

Right. Well, I said I was taken there as part of one of Hook's tricks... which actually involved sneaking into London and trying to kidnap my mother to lure Peter pan into a trap

[It's fine. She's fine. We're fine.]

[pinkflip]

That... That scoundrel! He kidnapped you?!

[ this doesn't sound fine??? ]

[lostbutnotaboy]

Sure did! He thought I was my mother, so he threw me in a sack and brought me to Neverland so I could be bait for a sea monster!

[did kids in the 40s even know what a giant octopus looked like.]

[pinkflip]

[ This news just infuriates her. How could someone do that, to a little kid? ]

I- I'd like to show him-- what an awful man! I- I swear, we get out of here, and...ugh!

[lostbutnotaboy]

[How can Hook do a lot of what he does to little kids?]

Ha, it's alright, Kim. I already showed him good. We destroyed his boat and everything. [With the help of a giant octopus, but does that have to be said.] Captain Hook never wins.

[pinkflip]

...As long as you're sure. Only fitting that you take his sword now, right?

[lostbutnotaboy]

...Well, I did try to use it against him once.

[pinkflip]

[ ...it is really sharp and she is really young, maybe- ]

You should probably just keep it somewhere safe for now.

[lostbutnotaboy]

[Nothing happened. She's not crazy, just an angry little thirteen year old....]

I guess the best place to put it is in my room then. I'll hide it under my bed, alright?

[She's alright with kim knowing where it is...]

[pinkflip]

[ LIKE, NO, SHE GETS IT, BUT SHE COULD HAVE GOTTEN HURT why is this only occurring to kim now because she's been fighting aliens since she was 15 ]

Good idea. You don't want anyone...getting any ideas.

[lostbutnotaboy]

[A small nod.] The last thing I'd like is to see someone accidentally hurting themselves.

[that would be terrible.]

[pinkflip]

[ hey drizz
fuck you ]

Exactly! [ She- gosh by now they've probably put the sword down, Kimberly puts an arm around Jane's shoulder fondly. ] You're a good kid, Jane. Let's...get this put away.

[lostbutnotaboy]

[Awww, just look at how happy they are.]

Thank you. [It actually makes her really glad to hear that.] Just let me gather up the rest of all this then.
