WEEK ONE

32 Guests

Maybe being swept away to a fancy castle isn't what you wanted (Hickey aside), but the fact of the matter is that you're stuck here, at least for now. Thankfully there's enough food even if hot chocolate for breakfast might be a bit rich for some palates. There's at least a stock of raw food in the kitchens, but your hapless kidnapper is a Witch, not a chef, so you'll have to perform your own, manual kitchen magic if the provided meals aren't to your liking.

Just try not to burn the place down before you get the chance to take your host at his word (that you'll be leaving in a week's time, certainly, trust).

If you do get the cabin fever immediately, the grounds are a beautiful reprieve from the great indoors -- and if nothing else, perhaps you can find time to get to know your fellow guests. The weather is gorgeous all week, cheerfully sunny, which lends something to the mood.

WEEKLY EFFECT

This week, characters will feel heightened emotions periodically. If they're very happy about something, it'll feel like the best thing in the world! If they'd usually brush off something mildly annoying, suddenly it'll grate on their nerves. This effect will last throughout the week until investigation and is completely optional.

[OOC: Welcome to Week 1! Despite the lack of any threatened murder (except in Witch's direction), there will be a case this week. We'll have a small optional event on Wednesday at 1PM EDT/10AM PDT, but it won't require real time threading and can be done over the course of the week. ]

Alright, time to be honest here. Are you asking for yourself or is this a casual question?

[Does someone really ask this stuff casually, Scarlet?]

[snakeblood]

Personal, but casually taking any opinions. [ And disregarding many.... ]

[caporegrimme]

Too bad one can never figure out who is good at relationships just by looking at them. That'd have saved you a lot of time.

[Scarlet, you come from an otome, you're from a world where like half of the available characters can be decent suitors. Don't pretend people who are fine at relationships are a rarity]

[snakeblood]

[ no, he's valid though. ]

Indeed, so many liars out there, pretending to be good harmless people.

[caporegrimme]

I have found 'good' and 'harmless' don't necessarily go together, but that might just be where I came from.

[And even then, when it's about the famiglie 'good' is all in the eye of the beholder]

[snakeblood]

That's true too. Plenty of "good" spirits out there that will still harm you, and weak evil ones that can't.

[caporegrimme]

I have never met a spirit, but I think I'd take my chances with one than with some people...

[At least with spirits you know you should always have your guard up. That's harder to know with people]

[snakeblood]

Well, with human spirits, so of course they still hold the same when they were alive. [ Other things though.... your mileage may vary. ]

[caporegrimme]

What makes someone stick around as a spirit? Regrets?

[snakeblood]

Regrets, unfinished business, loneliness, hatred, revenge, all that kind of thing.

[caporegrimme]

Hard to believe any spirit can be 'good', then...

[A little of a negative comment there, Scarlet, you know zero spirits, how can you tell]

[snakeblood]

Many who don't have those tend to move on. Those who have less malice are weaker and you're bound not to sense them, even if you have a relatively moderate spiritual vision.

[ It's okay, Yoonhee will answer him seriously. ]

[caporegrimme]

[What the hell is a spiritual vision. It's hard to figure out how having vision about spirits is like at all, even though he comes from a canon with a certain dose of magic in the air]

You sound experienced.

[snakeblood]

Because I am? They're not really my expertise though. But hey, sometimes people get possessed by things they didn't intend to.

[caporegrimme]

I see no reason for anyone to intend to be possessed by anything in the first place!

[snakeblood]

[ ... lol, hear that, young master Jeongha? ]

You'd be surprised about that.
