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.

Well I'm definitely not going to nap until it's time...

[Shame though, this girl seems like she could benefit from a nap. Whether that's terror or rage, it's barely being contained.]

What are you planning to do?

[agoreable]

I'll listen to what the Sergeant has to say... I don't like that, I think he should probably be executed, but we need to know, right?

We'll see who else is here too.

[ Despite all her weirdness, Lovepon enjoys safety in groups a lot. ]

[snailedit]

Yeah, but are you trying to be a judge or something?

[The mention of execution is a little odd. Reminds her of the voting in the decision game... though that would be pretty far fetched. She had already started to wonder about that, since the girl seems like she possibly wanted to go there together.]

There's a lot of people who stand out. Possibly every room in the motel belongs to someone who was brought here against their will.

[agoreable]

That's even worse. We'll have to get together and see that we get rid of those responsible. We won't be able to live safely unless all threats are gotten rid off completely.

[ Lovepon is totally fine with the idea of living here permanently, this issue aside. ]

[snailedit]

[Well that seems a bit hasty!! Maybe she is just that scared. Mira wouldn't know, but perhaps she's actually as jumpy as Eric?! She stares at her for a beat, deciding what to say.]

Um, right. We're going to be fine, though. Just think about it like that for now.
