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. ]

I see.

[There's any number of things Chara could say. About the way that parents raise their children, the illusion that adults ever really grow up.

They leave an imprint even when they're absent, Chara notices. A shadow hanging over the woman before them.]

Parents tend to fall short before long. It's easier to keep such a person as a concept, somewhere where they can never hurt or disappoint you. [There's a tinge of bitterness in their tone, but it's not entirely unsympathetic, despite the callous nature of their words.]

[distain]

You're right about that, too.

[She says it coolly; that sounds like a revelation she's also come to have.]

I was told she committed some terrible crime, but I never learned more. What could she have done that was so awful?
