foolishmortals | It's all happened before...

[You wake up in a plush bed, well rested but very confused. As you become more conscious, one thing becomes abundantly clear: this is not your room, nor does this look like any bedroom you’ve ever been in before. It’s relatively clean room, but immediately something feels… off about all of this.

When you start exploring, a thing you’ll soon notice is that on the bedside table, there is a room key sitting ontop of a neatly typed note.]

Dear hotel guests,

We cordially invite you to come to the downstairs library at noon for an important meeting regarding your stay in the Hollywood Tower Hotel. Before then, we invite you to make full use of the amenities this hotel has provided for you.

On behalf of the hotel staff, we dearly hope you enjoy your stay in this marvelous hotel.

-HTH Management

[But, as you leave the comfort of your new bedroom, any hope that you somehow booked a hotel room the previous night and just forgot is immediately dashed. It looks like this hotel hasn’t been cleaned in decades, and despite the mention of hotel staff in your note, there doesn’t appear to be anyone working here.

Not to say that you’re alone, however. As you explore the hotel, you’ll soon find that there are 23 others in the exact same situation as you: confused and with no memory of how they got here. And to make matters worse, if the bios you stumble upon in the dining area is anything to go by, this clearly isn't just a freak accident.

Get comfy, because you are all in for a wild ride.]

You.

[His connection to the Force has been seemingly severed. That's what instantly worries Kylo Ren, and it immediately sends him into a blind rage. So, he's now looking about the halls, calling out specific people and immediately closing in on their personal space.]

Tell me what you know of this place. Now.

[she seems way more annoyed that her reading time is being interrupted than any other emotion.]

It's a hotel. In Hollywood.

Both of those words are nonsense to me.

Explain yourself.

Seriously? [man doesn't this robot know anything]

Nope, that was your only free hint. Anything more is gonna cost you.

[just. gonna do the weird close-in and stare thing. ever do the meet and greet - he's doing that.]

Cost. Me. What.

[thinks]

A dollar.

[he ain't playin kid]

You will give me what I need.

What you need is an attitude adjustment. And maybe an oil change.

I will give you an attitude.

You already are, buster.

[SIGHS] We might be here for a while, okay? So, let's try this one more time. Hi, I'm Marnie. And you are?

I do not exchange pleasantries with children.

[ Hi, Reyna looks Unimpressed. ]

It's a building that claims to be a hotel, most likely run by a monster or a spirit, but we won't know until this meeting, most likely.

What leads you to those conclusions.

It would take something very powerful to kidnap me from the middle of Camp Jupiter. So unless there are memories I'm missing somehow, a monster or spirit seems most likely.

No monster or spirit I know of would have interest in running an inn.

I think assuming this is a real hotel at all is dangerous.

Then what do you believe it to be.

A monster lair is my first guess. Or the home of some kind of powerful spirit or minor god. I doubt there are usually other guests here, though.

[Amanda is momentarily stunned that Kylo Ren exists. She knows, through her classes and the chatter, that he's supposed to be introduced to the park next year, two or so months after the movie is released. Maybe the rules work differently for characters? Maybe, once they're believed in, they exist.]

This is the Hollywood Hotel. It was built in the early 1900s, but it shut down in the 40s due to a tragic accident. The city couldn't tear it down, so Disney bought it and converted it into a dormitory for the Imagineering training program. People say it's haunted, but -

[Amanda pauses, like she's momentarily forgotten what she was about to say.]

- they say that about any place that's old.

And who is Disney?

He's -

[You know what movies Amanda's not super familiar with? Star Wars. God, she really should have paid more attention when people were talking about the upcoming Star Wars Land to her. And anyway how do you describe Walt Disney?]

- the owner of the Happiest Place on Earth. I . . . work security for his kingdom.

Then you shall be an excellent asset.

[doing the whole "get in her face" thing again.]

Bring me to him.

[Amanda very firmly attempts to shove Kylo Ren away from her. It's a lot more forceful than an average teenage girl should be able to manage.]

Can you not? Besides, I don't know where he is. I work at an outpost on the edges of the kingdom - it's not like I'm personal friends with him.

[Really, Kylo? Threatening a child?]

Everybody just woke up here.

I can see that, child.

I would like an explanation for why that is.
