I woke up in the mess hall. Sanji and I spent the night there. Nothing out of the ordinary there, outside of feeling completely drained and ... hungry, I guess, now.

[ these constant low battery warnings are tiring when she can't do anything about them. ]

[shortforever]

I bet that's something else from the mansion. Staying in rooms had different effects on Friday, remember?

[Time to experiment with that, apparently.]

Was Sanji there when you woke up?

[recrypt]

He was. Had what sounds like the same effect, at least, and when we regrouped he asked me about it before I mentioned anything.

[ she crosses her arms. ]

Speaking of, we barricaded the doors, just in case things would be different- but it looks like it's like the mansion again here too, considering things looked normal when we woke up.

[shortforever]

So everything unlocks at night. Great. Nowhere is safe, I guess.

If this camp could stop taking cues from the mansion, it'd be great. ♪

[ ... ]

You don't suppose we could just vote 'Camp' tomorrow and speedrun this entire thing, do you?

[ probably not, really, but look. she's tired. get the law enforcement and detective dolls to do this instead and let her return to her life in the underground. ]

[shortforever]

We can try, but that might not count as a vote. Then we'd be speerunning to our deaths.

But you know, the only way to win might actually be to not play.

[recrypt]

Right, right, we have to unlock it like we did with the house.

[ she's starting to sound like MDR, RFB, or G11, and that's terrible. ]

Can we actually organize everyone into abstaining somehow? I'm not sure it's feasible.

[shortforever]

I don't think we can this week. Nobody trusts each other, outside of their own groups. But maybe it's something we can work towards.

[recrypt]

... does it really count as not playing, by that point? We would have already bought into the game got several weeks by then.

[shortforever]

It counts as not playing if you flip the game board off the table halfway through the game.

[recrypt]

You know what, I'll accept it. It takes time to set the stage, after all.

[shortforever]

Exactly.

[He's holding up a hand in an offer of a fistbump.]

Let's get the stage set and burn it all down, just like last time.

[recrypt]

If they want to try to repeat the same things as last time...

[ ah. the dramatic, meaningful fistbump of lore. ]

Well, be our guest! We'll simply find the truth again.
