THE MOCK WEEK

[You find yourself waking in a large dressing room, incredibly spacious, but in intense disarray. The bed is comfortable enough, and each room seems to be equipped with a working bathroom and shower, so it's at least livable. But aesthetically, the place has hit the floor.

The horrifying clock
mounted on the wall reads 9 am. After enough searching, you'll find a large tourist-y map of the studio on one of the dressers. An ominous note attached to the map with a paperclip reads "12PM WAITING AREA". It's not like you have any choice in the matter, seeing as there doesn't seem to be any way out.

Upon exiting the dressing room, you note a crooked star attached to the door bearing your name. There are 24 others like this, bearing names that you may or may not recognize. A quick tour around the studio reveals it to be in a similar state of disrepair, but something doesn't sit...right with you. Though the place is certainly creepy, you get strange vibes as you explore the building. As you move about the dust-filled halls of the abandoned building, you may spot movement out of the corner of your eye, or hear strange noises from behind you. It's nothing to be worried about, though...right?

At the very least, you'll find some comfort. The projection room and attached theater still seem to be in working order, though you'll have to manually grab one of the reels off the wall and start the thing yourself. In addition, the waiting area and lounge are both filled with reading materials, and the later features a large stage and a microphone. The commissary seems to replenish itself with food whenever you take your eyes off of it, ensuring that we won't be going hungry anytime soon. There are also cabinets full of ingredients and a small kitchen should you not trust whatever your benefactor is placing out for you.

Fortunately for them, the smaller individuals amongst your party won't find a great deal of difficulty moving around. Though their beds remain oversized, there seem to be appropriately-sized staircases and escalators placed about in appropriate spots, so as to make their lives easier. After all, they can't just keep relying on the others to get up to the cabinets and such, can they?

While you're waiting to find out what the deal here is, you might as well come out and socialize.]

Travel between worlds is common... If you know how to traverse the corridors. You wouldn't necessarily need a portal if you are comfortable treading through corridors of darkness that claw at your very heart. I traverse them regularly. There are those who use ships, as well.

[ At least he's talking about it openly. ]
terribibble: (absolutely very upsetting)

[personal profile] terribibble 2017-05-10 09:58 pm (UTC)(link)
[Well hey, now, he didn't say anything about portals. Or maybe he did and doesn't remember? But he doesn't usually lose things that fast. Usually. Maybe it's getting worse.

At any rate.]


Well then the real question's how'd he drag us all down the, uh. The corridors. Without us knowin' until we showed up?
pinkflip: (how did I become so obnoxious?)

[personal profile] pinkflip 2017-05-10 10:13 pm (UTC)(link)
We could have walked down them ourselves and forgotten about it. Mind control.

[She says, disgruntled, as if it's an annoyance.]
terribibble: (was that there was a snake on it)

[personal profile] terribibble 2017-05-10 10:32 pm (UTC)(link)
[KIMBERLY HOW COULD YOU]

Oh sweet lord, I hope that's not it. Than what's stoppin' him makin' one of us kill another?
pinkflip: it'll never be you and me‚ plant the seed (and if our shit is not together)

[personal profile] pinkflip 2017-05-10 10:37 pm (UTC)(link)
[LIKE, SHE HATES MIND CONTROL, BUT IT'S A POSSIBILITY!!!]

Ohh... That's, huh. [YIKES-] Um, maybe it being our choice is more...evil?
kindaruledatit: (This is bogus)

[personal profile] kindaruledatit 2017-05-10 10:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah like.... what's the point of making us do it if we do it ourselves? It's typical bad guy stuff.

[And. Wow. This gets more messed up by the second.]
rollerscoater: Gasping. (oh crap)

[personal profile] rollerscoater 2017-05-11 12:03 am (UTC)(link)
This is horrible. We must stop him before someone gets hurt!

Free will makes these things much more exciting.

[...okay when the hell did he get here. he's just. casually in the corner, sitting on a chair. he doesn't have his weasel patrol flanking him, but it's clear from his hand being tucked away that he has some sort of sidearm in his pocket. but for right now, he's casually nursing one of the bowls of soup and a few crackers.

surprise, bitch. I bet you thought you'd seen the last of me.]

rollerscoater: Pitying look. (nope)

[personal profile] rollerscoater 2017-05-11 02:05 am (UTC)(link)
[WOW RUDE]

How can you speak of these things like that?
notjustanytoon: (pic#8950369)

[personal profile] notjustanytoon 2017-05-11 02:09 am (UTC)(link)
Very easily, since you asked.
pinkflip: (and it's a waste of my time)

[personal profile] pinkflip 2017-05-11 02:05 am (UTC)(link)
[With a yelp of surprise, Kimberly jumps up almost on instinct, fists up and prepared for defense should it...be needed.]

When did you get here?!
notjustanytoon: (pic#8950547)

[personal profile] notjustanytoon 2017-05-11 02:06 am (UTC)(link)
Three minutes ago.

[casually slurping soup sup kim.]
pardonmylanguage: (annoyed)

[personal profile] pardonmylanguage 2017-05-11 02:08 am (UTC)(link)
[Tip strolls over casually, before raising a hand to try and snatch his crackers. And maybe knock over the soup bowl too.]
notjustanytoon: (pic#8950548)

[personal profile] notjustanytoon 2017-05-11 02:09 am (UTC)(link)
[i mean he just kinda watches her take his crackers. but he has a tight enough grip on the soup bowl atm that it's not really worth it. rude.]

Not a wise move when you're dealing with somebody who's armed.
pardonmylanguage: (annoyed)

[personal profile] pardonmylanguage 2017-05-11 02:12 am (UTC)(link)
[Fine. She's just gonna...dip a cracker in his soup...AND EAT IT!]

You just said you'd rather us kill each other. [Munch munch] Besides, you should have expected this if you came out to interact with the people you're keeping captive.
pinkflip: (i am capable of really anything)

[personal profile] pinkflip 2017-05-11 02:09 am (UTC)(link)
[she wants to punch you in the face, that's what's up]

No goons this time?
notjustanytoon: (pic#8950547)

[personal profile] notjustanytoon 2017-05-11 02:10 am (UTC)(link)
I felt that I should simply observe your discussion, and perhaps make input on your speculation. I don't need security for that.
pinkflip: i know you think that god will solve them (i know you think it's not your problem)

[personal profile] pinkflip 2017-05-11 02:53 am (UTC)(link)
Input. Got it. Any more to say? Anything that's peaked your interest?
terribibble: (anybody still online)

[personal profile] terribibble 2017-05-11 02:09 am (UTC)(link)
[JESUS CHRIST HE THINKS HE JUST HAD A HEART ATTACK

FIRST MURDER VICTIM RIGHT H-- oh no. No it's fine. He was just. Very spooked. Gonna just sit here and try to remember how to do a breathe. Wheeeeeeze.]

[Whips her head at him. Like the others, Wendy's pretty surprised, but Doom has the problem of not being a shapeshifting abomination, so the shock is lessened. Somewhat.]

Okay... really? Do you just pop out at any time?
ilovepuppies: (Super Rainbow Dolphin Slap)

[personal profile] ilovepuppies 2017-05-11 01:29 am (UTC)(link)
Ohhh, no, he doesn't need a machine if he's got a pair of dimensional scissors!
