WEEK 1: April 2nd - April 6th

[cartesio]

Peace Week

Sunday must have been exhausting for you, maybe even upsetting. A new town, new faces and a an ominous order from a man without a face... who wouldn't be a little frightened? Hopefully, all of that is forgotten when you climb out from under your blankets this fine Monday. Rise and shine! A new morning is a new start!

If you make your way to the lounge, you will find a few copies of the local newspaper provided for your perusal. Once you go outdoors, you'll find the weather forecast 100% accurate. It's pretty impressive.

It seems that quiet mornings like this are going to be your everyday life now. Maybe you should see this whole stay as a vacation? Go out and explore the town, meet your fellow motel guests and meet the townspeople. They're sure to welcome you with a smile!

This week's special in the diner is lemon pie made with love (and a top-secret recipe)

[Welcome to the peace week! This week there won't be a murder nor a task. Enjoy the peace while it lasts! If you want to contact the Sergeant, please post here!]

I think the thought process is like... if the food has too much flavor, it excites people and people who get excited follow their urges more and then that might lead to murder.

[ Which, stated out loud, sounds absolutely ridiculous. Even more ridiculous than her society normally sounds. Cian has to concede she may just not be good at explaining it. ]

[chiefminion]

That's ridiculous. There are a thousand other things that can do that other than food.

[Your world sounds awful, Cian]

Did it work? Did it--is it as peaceful as it should be?

[integratedsoul]

That's why food isn't the only thing regulated, of course.

[ She could go into it but also she'd be here all day. ]

And it worked. It's a place where you can go your whole life without seeing or feeling anything unpleasant. [ She doesn't sound very enthusiastic about it though. ]

... though my friend who travels a lot has told me that there are still war zones out there, in other places that haven't accepted the system.

[chiefminion]

That all sounds too good to be true. [Maybe not even that. Unpleasantness is inevitable] Are you happy?

[That's the best way to know if it works, in Moloch's opinion. How happy are you, Cian?]

[integratedsoul]

[ Well. That's truly A Question, isn't it? ]

Happy enough. That works for most intents and purposes, right?

[chiefminion]

[For a moment he's not sure if she means the 'happy enough' part. After all, would someone unhappy admit it to a complete stranger? He's not going to press on, though]

Nice to hear that.

[Better try to point at something good]

At least you'll have the chance here to try stuff you haven't tried before. It's your chance, give it a try little by little.

[integratedsoul]

It really is. I'd given up on every experiencing something like this, too...
