WEEK 0 — MARCH 29, 30



Week 0
You have been threatened by the Sergeant: if nobody dies before March 31st at noon, you, along with everyone else, will forfeit your lives. The Sergeant pushed everyone away from the Lodge, judging that had been enough interaction with his guests. So what now?

Will you submit to the Sergeant’s demands? Will you resist him and wait to see what happens? He wouldn’t be capable of killing you and everyone else, right?

Only time will tell.

The next day you'll find a newspaper at the motel lounge, telling you about today’s weather forecast with 100% accuracy. Looks like you can expect to find a newspaper every day to find out the weather and any other news about the town. It even includes something branded 'THE SHARK ALERT'. Who could that be directed to?

There's also a copy of yesterday's newspaper. There's nothing about the Sergeant or about your predicament, but there is something about your arrival to the town.

Cartesio is your world for the next four days, better make the most out of your time here.

OOC Note: The current IC:OOC ratio for the days is as follows: The 29th top-level covers Monday and Tuesday, while the 30th top-level is for Wednesday and Thursday.

...

Sharks are... large fish with sharp teeth, correct?

[...it sounds kind of like sharpedo, look]

I have no idea what the obsession with them is, honestly. It doesn't seem like they'd be native.

That's right, bucko.

[ Might as well be one... ]

Maybe one of the natives wised up to the existence of sharks like you did and started to fear for their lives. But if they don't know any better, they might think sharks could come from the sky or something like that.

[ Or are making fun of the shark guy. ]

Perhaps someone trains them around here...? That's not really restricted to whether you're landlocked or not. Then again, I'm not sure if they even know what Pokeballs are here.
odoruhinokaze: (no wai)

I've never heard of anyone training sharks.

[ Color him pretty amused at the thought. ]

Well, I don't know if they know what those are, but I sure don't. How do Pokeballs work, anyway?

Do you... train Pokemon at all? But anyway, you throw a Pokeball at a Pokemon which converts it to energy, but still gives it the opportunity to break out if it doesn't want you as a trainer. If it does stay inside the ball, then you're officially the Pokemon's trainer.

Nope, I don't.

[ There ya go, mister old bean scientist. ]

That sounds like something useful to have. Pokemon, I mean.

Seeing as you know all about them and mentioned them around the big guy, you must have your own, right? You ever get a chance to get 'em back?

Yes, I do. They'd definitely be very helpful in a case like this, since they're all of the Psychic type, but... well, I suppose he's keeping them somewhere inaccessible.
