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.}

[...Mon Dieu.]

How- this... this'll sound foolish, but how... does this work? There's no fire...

[terribibble]

Oh. Oh, land's sakes, forgive me, I ought to have explained. It makes its own... well, not fire exactly, but heat.

[How do you explain electricity to someone with no concept of it... Oh, yikes. Even a 1950s style kitchen must seem so alien to this poor man.]

Y'know lightnin'? How it'll strike a tree and start a fire? It's just another sort of heat and you can use it the same way. In my time we've worked out how to generate it safely and put it to use doin' all sorts of things, and one of them's heatin' up this coffee pot. See that wire there, leadin' into the wall? That's where it gets it from. There'll be a place somewhere in this house, probably somewhere we can't get to, with a generator or somethin' of that nature that's makin' all the energy.

[He... isn't sure that's enough, exactly, but if he wants to explain it properly he's going to have to backtrack into explaining protons and electrons and circuits and all sorts of things that may just confuse the issue further.]
