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.

MINI-EVENT: PARENTHOOD

[retellers]

[ At around noon, everyone will hear a loud beeping noise coming from the living room area. When they go to investigate, they'll find Wolf standing near the front door with their PHS in hand. The noise is coming from it. Once everyone has gathered, they speak. ]

You guys can still collect nova from this side. So let's get this over with.

[ And with that, they walk out the door. It's up to the participants on whether or not they wish to follow, as this isn't mandatory. But for everyone who does, Wolf takes them to the jungle. They walk up to the large tree where there are three baby gorillas sitting. Instead of passing out setting appropriate parchment, an alert goes off on their PHS. ]

These children have been orphaned. Raise them as your own, and share your own family memories.

... Hope you guys are good with pets.

[ For this event, you must be the parent to one of these three gorillas. Pair off in groups of 2 and claim one. You must also share about your own family, or whatever you may or may not remember of them in case of memloss. As for the babies:

1. One gorilla baby will keep running straight for the fire to try to dive off the waterfall.
2. One gorilla baby thinks the leopard is really neat and will keep looking for it.
3. One gorilla baby loves arrows and wants to go to the temple to collect them.

All three will immediately run in separate locations to go to their preferred thing. Good luck. You have until Sunday, 3pm EST to submit in the comment below. Each thread must be at least 20 comments. ]

REWARD

[retellers]

On Sunday, after rankings go up, a notification will pop up on your character's PHS, sending them to the NOVA CHECK app. A small image of a gift box and confetti shows on their screen, alongside a message.

For your success in gathering nova.

Touching the image on their screen will cause their PHS screen to glow, and they will be made to select one of the following two options:

• An alarm clock. If pressed, an alarm will briefly go off, and the character who pressed it will regain one of their lost memories. The clock will not work afterwards.

• A phone charger. It doesn't actually plug into anything, but if used, the character will be able to send a message to the living (not counting towards their regular limit of 2 people) using the usual messaging app, but with a character limit of 150 characters and the message recipient will be randomized.

After they select one, a present will manifest itself in front of them. Inside will be the item they selected. It does not have to be used immediately or by the person who originally received it.

This applies individually to both members of the group!

[ After much thought...

She's going to pick the memory regain and cry later ]

[tensecondsahead]

[he's going for the alarm clock and smashing that memory regain button instantly, thanks]

Sharon and Raven at 20!

Kano will take the phone charger!

[maidforservice]

Oh my. . . I've been a big sister for a good portion of my life, but I must admit I never gave much thought to parenthood.

[she is. briskly walking through the jungle today, hoping that Schwaven can keep up as she chases their energetic gorilla towards the temple. SHE IS HOLDING SCHWANN'S HAND TO GUIDE HIM THROUGH THE BRUSH]

I think I may be a bit too young to be a mother.

[laid]

[He's keeping up... fairly well? He's a bit stumbly because he can't see where he's going, only allow Sharon to tug him along, so there might be an odd rock or root that catches him. But it's fine mostly!!]

There's nothing stopping you from thinking of the gorilla as your younger sibling, I think?
[If it helps.]

I didn't know you had siblings, miss Sharon.
[He wouldn't normally engage in that sort of discussion, but if they're supposed to talk about family...]

[maidforservice]

[SHE IS GOING. . . FAIRLY QUICKLY because the gorilla has a head start on them, and she wants to keep the creature in their line of sight. but she's trying not to lead him into trees or over branches, so?? she's being nice. . . ish]

Oh, that's because I wasn't able to talk about her for at least two weeks.

[CHEERILY??]

I forgot who she was at the beginning of our second week here. ♥

[laid]

[Listen it's fine she could drag him a lot rougher and he wouldn't complain because he is a being made of depression and self-loathing.

He does perk up at that, though.]

... But you remember her now?
[SAY MORE RIGHT NOW, PLEASE.]

kano & shima

[suddenlybees]

[ The jungle is on fire and one of the gorillas runs towards it and Kano just stares into the far distance. ]

Do we fail if we let them die?

[ Maybe your family memories includes sitting around with your mother and then dying. ]

[yamantaka]

I'm assuming yes?

[ but all that fire ]

Should we... go after them?

[suddenlybees]

Um, hm... Probably...

[ The two of them just standing and staring at each other while their baby is getting barbecued. ]

Are you wearing a belt? Take it off.

[yamantaka]

[ he's a sensible teenage boy with sensible fashion sense, so of course he's taking off his belt ]

Makin' a leash?

laine and cater!

[tensecondsahead]

[Laine follows Wolf, carefully. He's not doing great, but he's doing his best.

The alert goes off and Laine... can't read the info on his PHS. This is fine.]

So, what do they want us to do?

[pulsecannon]

[ Her gaze is narrowed in on Wolf as if trying to decide something, until she hears Laine. Oh yeah...he's blind. Time to actually LOOK at what the hell they are watching. ]

Apparently we have to babysit some baby- [ A pause as she looks up to the tree. ]

Huh?! A baby wendigo?

[ The hell???? ]

[tensecondsahead]

A baby what? [Cater, this isn't helping him at all.]
