WEEK 3

[grimgrinningghosts]

[Karolina and Mulan are dead. The first, and hopefully the last, deaths of your stay here. Hopefully their deaths won't be in vain. Your third week here starts on a solemn note, and the mood here has taken on a significant downward spiral. If it's any consolation (it isn't), you'll find that you have two new floors to explore...even if one of those floors has about twenty STAY OUT signs nailed to it.

23 guests remain.]

[SUNDAY MONDAY TUESDAY WEDNESDAY THURSDAY]

{ooc: Don't forget to turn in your week 2 AC! As we're now officially in full murdergame mode, AC from here on out is extended till Thursday.}

[After the Anna's death and her dispute with Wander, Sylvia herself was pretty AWOL all of Wednesday, and it was mostly spent trying not to fall into a pit of despair.

But when she crawls out of her (well, Wander's, more accurately) room, she is hit by the smell of cooking and suddenly realizes just how hungry she is.

She's just going to take a heaping plate of home fries and bacon.]

You know I didn't know you could cook, Fiddles.

Oh, 'course I can cook. My folks taught me. Had a lot of little siblings, y'know, so it fell to us older kids to help out.

[If anything he's best at cooking for a lot of people. Nothing fancy, no, but it doesn't need to be fancy to be comforting. This is a kind of bizarre mix of oversharing out of nerves and genuinely trying to follow the advice Mike gave him: talk about something nice. Something familiar. It worked then, it can work now. He can't forget but he can focus elsewhere.]

I had to help my family with cooking, but I never really cared about it until I started living on my own.

[She pauses as she takes a bite of her food.]

I dunno why, but you seemed like the kind of guy who'd live solely off instant noodles.

[Probably because you look like a nerd who devotes to much of his day to nerdy stuff to do anything like cooking, but she's gonna keep that to herself.]

[terribibble]

I did?

[He... well he can't say he's surprised, honestly. There was a period there when his diet was about 70% pizza.]

Suppose I can't exactly argue with that. But bein' honest I'm more likely to have plenty of food in the house and then forget to eat it. Get caught up in things, y'know.

[If his wife hadn't reminded him about meals he would have probably starved to death in that garage.]
