week 4

[stagemanagers]

[Another week, and two more dead. King Richard and Red are both gone, and once again, it was through nothing more than an accident in the heat of the moment. Maybe if you all stay calm and collected, nothing bad will happen again?

Well, maybe not.

When you wake on Sunday, you'll find that you've recovered another one of those memories - or had another dream, if you still wanna be in denial about it. The grounds remain as they are, but this time, the door blocking the stairwell has been unsealed. You can now venture up to the second floor! This is the second time that's happened; it's almost as if you get more space every time someone dies. Or maybe the whole place just seems quieter.]

Sunday | Monday | Tuesday | Wednesday | Thursday


(( Welcome to Week 4! Please remember to submit your AC and your memory regains, as well as your coins! You can also still contact the Phantom. ))

[Well then. Stephen allows himself a small smile.] Then c'mon. I've got some popcorn, if we need it.

[To the movie room?]

[holyspit]

Popcorn can't hurt.

[TO THE MOVIE ROOM-! Or wherever the mods say there is or isn't a VCR.]

[37773972]

[Movie room it is! After a stopover for popcorn. Maybe slightly cooled from when Stephen got it, but still good.]

Need any help setting it up?

[holyspit]

I think I've got it?

[If there's a VCR here then the projector is probably made to work with one, so it's either got some kind of universal cable or those color-coded ports? Either way, Steven's probably fine with a little trial and error.]

[So sooner or later, the projector lights up, throwing a grainy video onto the screen.]

[Steven settles in to a seat, knees pulled up to his chest as he watches.]

[37773972]

[Righto, time to watch. Stephen gets himself comfortable, and...blinks at the sight of the statue coming on to screen.]

What is...

[Okay, statue aside. That has to be Steven's dad, right? He goes quiet, simply watching, and...smiling a little at the other man's antics. He can see where Steven gets it from.]

[holyspit]

Dad...

[Hoo boy, the tears are already pricking at the edges of his eyes.]

...He'd be having such a bad time if he were here.

[37773972]

[That? Stephen can agree on. He's not even a real current dad and he's having a rough time. And to think Greg worried for his son...]

Guess you're stuck with the rest of us, buddy.

[He means it as a joke, but even he thinks it comes off flat]
