GRAVEYARD


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.

[ Are her eyes closed... Will Kano be able to shuffle close enough to her to loom over her and bleed onto her face? ]
bisouled: (too much to deny)

[personal profile] bisouled 2020-11-10 04:31 am (UTC)(link)
[ i'm going to say yes just because that's so gross. not that they'll be closed for long - they snap open as soon as she feels something hit her face, at which point Fiora shrieks in disgust and leaps to her feet. ]

You -- what -- is this blood?! Oh!!

[ RUNNING INTO THE WATER TO WASH IT OFF ]
suddenlybees: (028)

[personal profile] suddenlybees 2020-11-10 04:37 am (UTC)(link)
[ OH- Kano's impression is that Fiora is supposed to be a robot or something and if robots touch water they'll zap everything in it and fry up, so he tries to grab her wrist, fully knowing that if she's that much stronger than him, he's liable to go faceplanting into the sand and have you ever gotten sand in an open wound? It's like glitter, you can't ever get rid of it all. ]
bisouled: (now what.......)

[personal profile] bisouled 2020-11-10 04:48 am (UTC)(link)
[ he is tragically wrong; Fiora would be fine if she'd just run off into the waves. Instead, he's suddenly jerking on her hand, and yes, she probably is stronger than him -- but not so much stronger that him losing his balance doesn't make her also lose her balance.

With a yelp, Fiora also falls into the sand. The crab that was on the back of her foot goes flying up into the air. Magnificent. ]
suddenlybees: (314)

[personal profile] suddenlybees 2020-11-10 04:52 am (UTC)(link)
[ Kano lands on his face and the sand immediately gets caked on all over everything, especially as he rolls over onto his back and squeezes his eyes shut until the sand settles.

The crab lands on his face. And clamps down on his nose. And if he didn't feel like crying before, he does now. ]
bisouled: (i'm only human)

[personal profile] bisouled 2020-11-10 05:00 am (UTC)(link)
[ Fiora manages not to land right on her face, thanks to having good reflexes. But the blood is still there. And it's going to take forever to clean all the sand out of her joints. ]

Ugh! You're the worst!

[ she yells this out again before scrambling to her feet and jumping straight into the waves. enjoy your crab while she disinfects her face... ]
suddenlybees: (011)

[personal profile] suddenlybees 2020-11-10 05:08 am (UTC)(link)
[ She was already lying on the sand, how could she blame him for that!!!

But there's really nothing he can do until she's out of the water and in ambush range again, so he takes the time to peel the crab off his face, fingers working to pry the claw apart to the point that they're bleeding too, but pain doesn't matter so much as it being annoying to have a crab on his face when he's doing what he needs to do.

He keeps a close eye on the water, though. There doesn't seem to be any zapping... ]
bisouled: (and the rising tide)

[personal profile] bisouled 2020-11-10 06:04 am (UTC)(link)
[ it's his fault now.

there is indeed no zapping. An angry cyborg emerges from the surf after a handful of seconds, looking no worse for wear outside of her hair being wet and her brow being furrowed. Also, she is yelling at him immediately as she stomps her way back up the shore. ]


I was all ready to give you a second chance, and this is what I get! Do you have a problem with me or something? [ a beat. ] -- Why is your face covered in blood?!
suddenlybees: (005)

[personal profile] suddenlybees 2020-11-10 06:12 am (UTC)(link)
[ He was going to be given a second chance? There's the look of utter bafflement at that statement, hands dropping to his lap and showing that it's not just his face that's covered in blood, but his neck and soaked into the front of his shirt as well, much more damage than a single crab could have done.

He makes two fists and places them side by side, thumbs together, and then sort of rolls them so his wrists are touching instead and his thumbs stay together the entire time. ]
bisouled: (you're pulling me under)

[personal profile] bisouled 2020-11-11 03:08 am (UTC)(link)
[ well. he looks horrible. Fiora gasps, recoiling a little at the sight of him, and if it wasn't for the fact that they're all already dead, she'd probably run over.

The weird hand gesture is lost entirely on her, and also me. what... ]


You lost your voice?
suddenlybees: (056)

[personal profile] suddenlybees 2020-11-11 03:11 am (UTC)(link)
[ ...He's going to assume she's asked because of the charades, not as a guess to the charades, so he nods. He lost his voice! And possibly the entire voicebox! But it's okay, because he still has his hands and also zero problems communicating.

He points to himself, opens his mouth and points inside it, and then points at Fiora.

? ]
bisouled: (kinder und sterne)

[personal profile] bisouled 2020-11-11 03:45 am (UTC)(link)
[ ... she's just getting more confused. Her brows knit together. ]

I... have no idea what that means.

[ she's not going to eat him, which is the only thing coming to mind with that gesture. ]

What's the big idea, anyway? If you wanted my attention, you could have just given me a shake! Now what if I get sick?
suddenlybees: (335)

[personal profile] suddenlybees 2020-11-11 03:51 am (UTC)(link)
[ Eat is very unfortunately close to what he meant, but the conversation has veered sharply away from correct guesses.

Kano gestures vaguely to the space around him, holds up two fingers, and shakes his head. ]
bisouled: (and agony)

[personal profile] bisouled 2020-11-11 03:55 am (UTC)(link)
[ WHAT? ]

... Can't die twice? That doesn't make it any less gross. And I bet you won't apologize this time, either.

[ ... ]

Does that hurt?
suddenlybees: (339)

[personal profile] suddenlybees 2020-11-11 04:03 am (UTC)(link)
[ Yeah.

He frowns a little and looks away at the first bit, because he got his answer even without the charades, so we're not going to talk about eating.

When asked whether it hurts, though, he shakes his head, which is probably a lie with how little he tries to move it. He points to the sky? And sort of wiggles his fingers above his head. ]
bisouled: (i never promised you an open heart)

[personal profile] bisouled 2020-11-11 05:08 am (UTC)(link)
[ why were we talking about eating............. scary. fiora doesn't even know how close to something scary she just got.

At least she can interpret a headshake properly - although, yes, she has some serious doubts, because the injury looks terrible. The rest of his charade is a little harder to interpret. ]


... Rain?
suddenlybees: (340)

[personal profile] suddenlybees 2020-11-11 05:19 am (UTC)(link)
[ We were talking about... eating adjacent...

Rain is very close too! Kano grins and tents his fingers over his head. ]
bisouled: (oh you are the mystery)

[personal profile] bisouled 2020-11-11 05:31 am (UTC)(link)
Erm... Umbrella?

[ Fiora is already getting frustrated. ]

I really don't know what you're trying to say to me...
suddenlybees: (346)

[personal profile] suddenlybees 2020-11-11 05:45 am (UTC)(link)
[ He's trying to answer her question... please... context...

Oh well.

He holds his palm out face up, and with his other hand he pinches his thumb and pointer finger together and traces lines across his palm. He glances up at Fiora and shakes his head. ]
bisouled: (to love you)

[personal profile] bisouled 2020-11-12 12:58 am (UTC)(link)
[ she's doing her best, kano!!!!! ]

... It won't close up, your wound? Is that what you mean?
suddenlybees: (086)

[personal profile] suddenlybees 2020-11-12 01:54 am (UTC)(link)
[ me, parenting up half a dozen tags trying to figure out what the hell I was trying to say

He digs his PHS out of his pocket and holds it up to Fiora and then points at his mouth. ]
bisouled: (i never promised you an open heart)

[personal profile] bisouled 2020-11-12 03:52 am (UTC)(link)
[ EVEN CARD DOESN'T KNOW... ]

Oh, you're going to message me? All right.

[ that's her best guess, because she is not assuming that he's telling her to eat her phone. Fiora pulls hers out, too. ]

This better be good.
suddenlybees: (344)

[personal profile] suddenlybees 2020-11-12 03:57 am (UTC)(link)
[ ...CAN they message? Kano's never tried messaging one of the dead people and he holds his PHS close to his chest and taps out some random keystrokes and tries to send it and I assume it does not work but who knows.

He's not showing Fiora his screen. He just looks over at her to see if she received anything. ]
bisouled: (und führen mich)

[personal profile] bisouled 2020-11-12 04:20 am (UTC)(link)
[ it's......... nothing. ]

That didn't work.

[ sigh. ]
suddenlybees: (019)

[personal profile] suddenlybees 2020-11-12 08:32 pm (UTC)(link)
[ He can't say he's surprised at all. But he pockets his PHS and holds his hand out for Fiora's. ]
