GRAVEYARD

[retellers]

GRAVEYARD Well, that sucked. But no matter what your death was like—whether it was something peaceful or traumatic, you'll find yourself waking in a completely white room on the floor. Small and empty, there isn't anything else there besides an open door to walk through. But before you do that, you'll probably notice that whatever injuries you may have had, including whatever may have been the death blow, are now gone. That's exciting. Stepping out of the room, it seems that you're in a large... house? with three different floors. Everything from floor, ceiling to furniture is completely white, except for the drawings that are plastered to the walls in each room. These are all colorful, drawn in colored pencils and crayon, and resemble a child's drawing. The other notable thing are the windows. While they're present all around the building, looking out of them only shows TV static. Besides that, everything is furnished with the absolute bare minimum of each room. The first floor is all typical common areas one would find in a house. There's a kitchen, living room area, laundry room, dining room, and a main hallway where the stairs are. There are also helpful drawings in these rooms that show the rooms much more lavishly decorated than they actually are. There's a door that appears to be the way to exit the building, but it leads you to somewhere that's not the front lawn. The second floor consists of nothing but twenty bedrooms. Each room has one queen sized bed, an empty dresser, and an attached bathroom with only a sink, toilet, and shower. Like the first floor, each bedroom has drawn pictures that show it looking much more lavish than it actually does. Thanks for nothing, artist! The third floor only has two rooms. One appears to be a home office with nothing but a desk and two chairs, one behind it and one in front of it. On the desk are some blank pieces of paper along with crayons, as well as a written note next to them that says PLEASE DRAW THE PREFERRED ANIMAL :). It looks like this is how you ask for a meeting with a Leader. The other room is much larger, and it's completely empty save for the many drawings lining its walls— in fact, the walls are covered in them, much more than in any other room. On closer inspection, though, it seems like these aren't actually drawings? The papers seem to be showing scenes from the living area. Everything from inside the hotel to the areas beyond the bridge are visible here. However, when curfew hits on Thursday nights, they revert to being normal drawings! Except for the fact that they're all drawings of stick figures being murdered in various ways. Well. At least there's plenty of things to draw with, if you get bored. As of Week 3, each person has the ability to send messages on their PHS unlocked.

...Is that code for murder people? 'cause, like, I think I did my time.

[retellers]

No! Jesus, no wonder everyone keeps dying, you're all so obsessed with it.

[suddenlybees]

Isn't that 'cause it's all you've been telling me to do? I heard from Sora about Virid, too!

[retellers]

First of all, that's just a rumor that we're still trying to verify. Second, that damn maid over there has already admitted to killing just because!

[ sometimes, you eavesdrop on other people's conversation. sorry sharon. ]

[suddenlybees]

[ What!!! Sometimes you're surrounded by murderers and just want to scream. ]

Nobody kills "just because." I bet he had it coming.

[retellers]

Who the fuck knows! The point is, some of you are killing for reasons other than sketchy Leaders.

[suddenlybees]

[ squints ]

Like sketchy snakes.

[retellers]

No. We should have left you in space.

[suddenlybees]

You should have, but you didn't. I got swallowed up instead and ended up here. Explain that.

[ check. and. mate. ]

[retellers]

Explain what? Your brain injury?

[ why did tiger have to be the one here ]

[suddenlybees]

[ Kano asking himself the same thing, he would rather talk to literally anybody else, but unfortunately Tiger is good for taking his frustrations out on. ]

Yeah, exactly that. My head's, like, too dumb and rattled to make sense of anything so how 'bout you explain what this is all about?

[retellers]

Easy. You died, and you were removed from where everyone else was, and now you're here. I guess you can consider it a waiting room.

[suddenlybees]

Purgatory, but we still gotta do the nova thing.

[ No rest, even when they're dead /: ]

You can't break us outta this waiting room, can you? Or, like, smuggle things out for me?

[retellers]

Nope. This is the only place your spirits can manifest. You'll just be plain dead over on the other side.

[suddenlybees]

And what if I wanted to send something over to the other side?

[ ... ]

With Rabbit.

[retellers]

... you could probably try, but I'm not sure if it'll go through or not. But I guess we'd never know unless the attempt is made, right?

[suddenlybees]

...Be right back.

[ Going to jog all the way upstairs to grab a piece of paper and a crayon and jog back down while furiously scribbling and then folding the piece of paper into fourths so Tiger can't see. ]

Here- give this to Rabbit to give to Zuko. He'll know exactly what I'm talking about.

[retellers]

This better not be something stupid.

[ but they will pocket it anyway. ]

[suddenlybees]

No way, no way, would I draw up some nonsense for Zuko just to mess with him?

[ It's a very important message. I hope Sip gets it. ]

[retellers]

You're not seriously asking me that, are you?

[suddenlybees]

Yeah.

[retellers]

[ they stare into the distance ]

Is that all?

[suddenlybees]

[ See? Can't deny Kano is a good boy who would never. ]

For now~ Let's see if the trial run goes through, first.

[retellers]

Yeah, yeah. I'll let you know.
