WEEK 2

[grimgrinningghosts]

[A week has gone buy, and nothing really horrifying has happened. Sure it's a crappy amusement park but no one's dead yet! While you're scenario is not great to be in, but you have people to bond with, "fresh air", food, and free Moron Mountain merch! So maybe you have fallen into a sense of security, content to hang out in this terrible theme park until Swackhammer decides to let you go because everyone is too boring for his park.

This won't last, however.]

26 guests remain

SUNDAY

[grimgrinningghosts]

[handhook]

[Aquaman has kept mostly to himself since their arrival. He thinks that's a rational thing to do, all things considered. As if kidnapping weren't bad enough on its own, their captor has decided to make all of them into would-be assassins, and he has a kingdom to return to.

Unfortunately, there's only so long a person can spend cooped up in their room with nothing but a novelization of Space Jam before they start to go insane. When he can't stand it anymore, he finally ventures out, stumbling upon the casino in his search for anything worthwhile.

A short while later, he storms out again, expression drawn even tighter than usual. You might think he's being a sore loser, but actually, it's even worse than that. He's won, and the prize is...

Well. It's hard to make out exactly what's clutched in his hand. But he storms all the way back to that balcony Swackhammer first greeted them on, glaring up at it as he tries to gauge its height by sight alone. Finally, he hefts his arm back and chucks the mystery object straight toward it.

Unfortunately, his aim is a little off. It thuds the edge of the balcony's handrail and bounces uselessly downward, hitting the ground with an odd, dull smack. Where it lies on the ground, any passerby should be able to see that, actually, it's a...

A severed hand?]

[notthebattleship]

[Oh, guess what interrupted her on the way back from the casino, carrying some snacks and a piece of broken metal and fabric. A severed hand falling right in front of her.

Zhu Li pauses and just. Contemplates her life. And looks up at the balcony. And then at Aquaman as if he saw everything.]

It only took a week.

[handhook]

[The whole situation is so strange and insulting and he isn't thinking entirely clearly, so his reply to Zhu Li's comment is more of a bark.]

What?

[toogoodtobetrue]

[Anyone who sees a hand falling down would scream, and even more if the person seeing it is a kid. Coraline screams when the hand hits the ground]

Whose hand is that?!

[handhook]

[Her screaming is completely reasonable, and yet.]

It's mine.

[He waves his claw hand in her direction as he snaps that reply, as if that's all the explanation she should need.]

[dothebackslide]

[Walks in.

Stares at hand.

Looks up at Aquaman

Looks back to hand.

Puffs cigar.]

Well that's ONE way to interpret a hand job.

[handhook]

[disgusted noise]

[in4apounding]

[Well that's. Sure a thing.]

That- didn't belong to anyone, did it?

[handhook]

It did.

Me.

[Deadpan, he clicks his claw hand at Penny.]

[udderly]

Gross, dude. [Like??? Toss body parts around in your own private time????] This is a communal space.

[handhook]

Do you have a better way to deliver this to Swackhammer?

[This sounds like an angry rhetorical question, but no, he's legit. What else is he going to do with a severed hand than throw it at their kidnapper???]

down for some backtags friendo?

[themightybeetle]

[Beetle, for his part, finds the hand a little interesting. Well, yes, it's kind of creepy, but as he picks it up with one of his own, puts a fist to his chin in a thoughtful position, uses yet another of his four hands to shield his eyes and looks around and- oh, is that the guy who threw it?]

You know, if you're trying to give someone a hand, this isn't really the way to do it.

[#justbugdadjokes]

absolutely

[handhook]

[For a long second, Aqauman just stares back at Beetle with a stony expression. Then, he sighs, apparently resigned to the jokes.]

I think Swackhammer deserves to wake up to a bloody hand in his quarters. At minimum.

[shoshtupid]

Oh, look!

[ And he's gonna reach for that hand! ]

[handhook]

[You know what? He doesn't even care. He watches Wabuu with a deadpan expression.]

King Dice + candy-themed breakdowns

[candymancan]

[It's four in the morning, which means it's a perfect time to stumble into the tent of King Dice with a few scattered coins. Have fun with that, King Dice.

Later, Wonka can be found in the hotel lobby, contemplating his "prizes". A useless acorn, and a piece of candy.]

Do they really expect me to believe any of the candy they make here could be worth eating?

[He contemplates it for a good fifteen minutes- not moving, barely blinking. Finally, with one swift movement, he pops it into his mouth.

. . .]

Who... Who made this? Who did this?

[There may be tears in his eyes.]

I- how could they have possibly made something so... beautiful. Exquisite. Oh my God, I- I can't handle this, the flavors, I- oh my GOD...

[Aaaaand now he's sobbing on the hotel floor, curled into a ball on the ground.]

[standsforrevenge]

[........nudges him with a foot.]

[candymancan]

[He is unresponsive. Try again?]

candy breakdown

[thegreateggscape]

[Dear god what was with this man.]

Are you alright?

[manecharacter]

Are you high right now?

[If Wonka doesn't respond, Bojack is going to jostle him impatiently.]

Where did you get the drugs, Gene Wilder? Who gave you the drugs?

[treefetish]

... [slowly. moves in to steal acorn.]

[in4apounding]

...Mister Wonka? Are you okay? Who hurt you.

[bringmecontracts]

[King Dice is here, awake and smiling but it definitely looks like he was sleeping before Wonka entered. There is a vague tone of annoyance as he speaks.]

Shouldn't you be in bed?

candy breakdown

[loneleye]

It's just food. It's not worth getting upset over.

[Kubo, who has hardly eaten anything other than fish and rice his entire life,]
