WEEK 2

[grimgrinningghosts]

[One week. One week spent in the Haunted Mansion, and nothing seems to have changed. The hinges still creak in doorless chambers, strange and frightening sounds still echo through and you still occasionally catch a flicker of candlelight out of the corner of your eye. You might be slowly becoming familiar with the mundanity of this communal life, and we've recognized that possibility.

Something has to give.]

[SUNDAY MONDAY TUESDAY WEDNESDAY THURSDAY]

{ooc: Don't forget to turn in your week 1/intro AC! As per murdergame tradition, this begins our new weekly schedule - Tuesday and onwards are locked for the motive. Everybody's just working for the weekend.

Additionally, a few people this week are going to get tagged by...something. If you'd like to opt out of this, please let us know.}

[Karolina died getting you that axe, you better appreciate it Wendy.]

Grop yeah, you heard about the hand that popped out, right?

[She is still thoroughly traumatized by it.]

I'm starting to get a feeling this room is a lost cause. I'm pretty sure a bomb couldn't destroy the window at this point.

... But the other walls...

[Sylvia no.]

[kindaruledatit]

What. [evidently, um.....]

Dude, wait. Back all the way up. [Hand waving!] There was a hand in the slot machine?!

[thetimebomb]

I think Fiddles and I were screaming about it when it popped out?

[She doesn't know, that whole conversation was a blur of panic to her.]

It's really flarped up. I think we decided that it must have belonged to one of the ghost but it's still flarped up.

[kindaruledatit]

Whoa, you mean old ma-[cough] Mcgucket found a hand in the machine with you? Dang!

[She looks, a bit concerned.] The guy kinda goes through enough, and that totally can't be good at all.

[thetimebomb]

[Ugh who cares about that jerky guy when she was also traumatized.]

It couldn't have been good for any of us. This place is trying to flarp us up.

[kindaruledatit]

[Hey she kind of does?? No? Alright.]

It's seriously flarped up. [Is she... using that right?] Hope whoever that hand belonged to doesn't really need it anymore.

[thetimebomb]

[I'm so glad Sylvia is teaching the youth swears.]

Most people tend to need both their hands. [Well, unless they have a lot of them?] I guess all we can hope for is that their dead now.

[Well... she doesn't hope for dead people but it's a lot easier to handle than some guy living with his hand missing like that.]

[kindaruledatit]

[It's one of her crowning achievements. Plus, Wendy gets some swears to add to her collection.]

Hey, you can get a pretty sweet hook now. [She says, trying to make this situation better... and failing?]

God, just imagine if someone here was missing one?

[thetimebomb]

A robotic hand would be cool too, now that you mention it. [Hey, it would be.]

With the lack of a proper medic area I can't imagine how...

["you wouldn't die from blood loss" is how she was going to finish, but that's a bit of a bummer right there.]

I'm sure of all the things we have to worry about, losing our hands isn't one of them.

[She gently grabs her own wrists, as if suddenly worried that something will pop out and try to cut her own hands off out of nowhere.]

[kindaruledatit]

[Sylvia, you jinx them, and weeks later....]

It'd be totally cool though. Maybe even strong enough to bust through a window or something.

[..Yeah, nah. Her hands fall back into her pockets. Cool thought instantly ruined.] No, it probably wouldn't would it.

[thetimebomb]

[Week 4 everyone loses their hands. In an attempt to defuse any awkwardness, she decided talking about robot arms would be a safe way to go.]

Don't say that, if I wasn't so attached to these ladies the idea of being able to break out of this place with a robotic arm would be too cool.

[She sure did just call her fists "ladies".]

[kindaruledatit]

Did you just call your fists "ladies"?

[And Wendy sure did just notice.]
