WEEK ONE

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. ]

Well, he wasn't happy about it, obviously. I was making him stay in his room to recover after the car crash.

And hitting two birds with one stone by making him dream about the past so we got more info about Joo Eunhae. [ Yes.... ] When he finally woke up, he unplugged the webcam! Unbelievable.

[coldseep]

Do you think he'd like it better if you did it for no practical reason like getting information or to make him recover?

[snakeblood]

... I think he'd like something I can't give him?

[coldseep]

What's that?

( a............. BABY ? )

[snakeblood]

[ ... ] Ruining my sanctity?

[coldseep]

( ok so a baby-- )

Oh, making love?

[snakeblood]

Mmmhmm.

[ In a serious, chanting-like voice he says: ]
One. You must not tarnish god.
Two. God must not be tarnished.

Those are my house's two inviolable rules.

[coldseep]

I don't hear anything in that that says it's an act that's innately defiling, though? Who decided that?

( smh smh human interpretation always gets a little weird... )

The closer you are with the spiritual world, the more you want to engage with nature on nature's level. The concept of chastity as a sort of cleanliness sounds like a human idea to me.

( Not that he doesn't know of spirits that value chastity, but as a raw expression of nature himself, he knows that sensuality as a form of oneness with nature has always had a place among nature and its keepers. )

[snakeblood]

Oh, they definitely don't like it. This isn't something my family is being overzealous about, like making all my food and whatever.

The snake god is a jealous god. I should know. It's in my blood.

[coldseep]

( well if the spirit in your blood is telling you to put your dick away then hwy shall concede to that, that's its fetish and who is he to judge-- )

Jealous of you being with others? Or...?

[snakeblood]

Exactly. My body and soul belongs to something else already.

[ Wow, this coffee's so cold from all this chattering with @ all ]

[coldseep]

( chuck the crystal stop checking ur phone-- )

Mmmm... What if you try to somehow let it claim this other guy, too? Maybe not exactly in the same way as you, but... in a way that satisfies it.

[snakeblood]

It only takes people from my family [ You could say, they were bred for this. ].... and besides that, Seojin hyung's pretty close to a normal human as you can get, spiritually. Tangentially, that's why he probably clashes with his younger brother.

[coldseep]

What's going on with his younger brother?

[snakeblood]

He's a seer. Seojin feels responsible for him and probably with what happened with their parents.
