WEEK 0 — ARRIVAL

[cartesio]

Week 0: Arrival

When you wake up you immediately feel something’s off. You sit on the bed and find it’s not your bed, and this isn’t your room either. You seem to be in a rather normal-looking motel room. To your side there’s a trunk, if you open it you’ll find a military uniform, the key to your room, a set of rules and a debit card. Don’t lose those items! Or do lose the rules, you'll find a brand new copy the next day under your pillow. There’s also a calendar on the wall, you can see today’s date. The year is unreadable, but the month and day are very clear:

March 28^th
There it says ‘Meet the Sergeant at the Lodge, 9:00 AM’. There’s also a circle around March 31st, with the word ‘END’ scrawled there.

For now leaving your motel room would be a good choice. When you reach the lobby, you see the receptionist’s desk— no one’s manning it. There’s a rack filled with maps, marking several locations in the town.

There are also many strangers here – and you’re one more. For now it may be a good idea to take a map and explore the town.

After all, looks like you’re stuck here in the boonies for a while.

[She chuckles at the wine joke, apparently not having a problem with being perceived as good company. But he is being silly so she's teasing him back a little.]

As long as you haven't had too much already, that is. Call me Mira. And you would be...?

[tresbienmoi]

Non, non! [He touches his finger to his nose, crossing the tavern to her in an exaggeratedly straight line in a show of sobriety.] Just enough for a better heart and a better morning.

[After some quick glancing at hands for rings--]Mademoiselle Mira, a pleasure I'm quite sure.

I would be the République Française. [He waits for the weird facial expression of confusion or the long pause of thought.] France for short.

[snailedit]

[He's saying his name is the country of France? Is he sure he isn't drunk? Anyway, her response is quicker than he might have expected, even if it's just a cheeky,]

That's a new one.
