Week Five

[stagemanagers]

[Last week, you had your very first minor body pileup! Granted, the Balladeer's death was entirely unrelated to anything, but at least he died as he lived - getting completely fucked up in some kind of carnival-themed hellscape. Only two days later, another terrible accident took Rina and Varian both from you. It's just been one of those weeks, huh? At least you got to add both of their corpses to your weird growing collection!

Again, you'll wake up this morning with another new snippet of memory. You'll also find that the stairs in the lobby are no longer blocked. You can only access one part of the second floor, but it seems like there's some neat stuff up there!

Outside, a few things seem to have changed. For one, the weather has turned - it'll be overcast this week, with periodic rain and even scattered thunderstorms. For another, the bushes around that rock out by the football field have bloomed. That's nice.

Get to it, friends! I'm sure everything will be fine this week!]


Sunday | Monday | Tuesday | Wednesday | Thursday

(( Be sure to submit your memory regain and your AC for this week! As always, Hester's office hours and the merch booth remain available. ))

[He giggles like an absolute idiot.]

Yooouu did. 'M the highest sponge ever...

[comeandfindme]

[ Hands on her head. ]

I got Spongebob Squarepants high.

[ She's having...the tiniest bit of weed anxiety. ]

[employeeoftheyear]

[He giggles even more and he just...

Awkwardly puts his hand out towards her, either to grab her hand.

Even if she's standing up.]

[comeandfindme]

[ Oh, Spongebob. What do you take her for, she is so not standing up.

Peregrine tentatively grabs back!! ]

[employeeoftheyear]

[He grasps her hand and looks her gravely in the eye.]

Per.

Those specials were wrong.

[comeandfindme]

[ Peregrine gasps really loudly in shock. ]

Oh jeez, Spongebob Squarepants!! Spongebob Squarepants dissed the afterschool specials!!!

[employeeoftheyear]

[He giggles.]

I'm rude now.

[comeandfindme]

Oh, jeez. Oh man. Ohhh. Oh I did this. I gotta tell Lexy, she’s gonna flip.

[employeeoftheyear]

[You ruined him, Per. Now Spongebob will never get another season.]

Tell Lexy I love her.

[comeandfindme]

[ She gasps again, louder. ]

Ohhhh!! She'd freak!! [ Softly, or like, what she thinks is softly: ] We watched your show together when we were kids. She always liked your Mermaid Man episodes.

[employeeoftheyear]

[Now is his turn to gasp.]

I love Mermaidman too

[Luckily he's more than come to terms with being a cartoon when he's sober, much less high.]

We should... we should watch my cartoon with...

Who?

[comeandfindme]

I...don't know. I haven't watched it in like...like so many years. I think I thought I was too grown up for it.

[ She confesses that in an apologetic tone. ]

I'm sorry. That was really stupid.

[employeeoftheyear]

[Spongebob very gently paps her cheek.]

Shh, I forgive you. You're not stupid. And I love you.

[comeandfindme]

Spongebob Squarepants loves me!!

[ Oh no she's gonna start crying? ]

[employeeoftheyear]

[Pats her face even more now.]

'N never let anyone tell u that I don't!

[comeandfindme]

Wow... Wooow, do you think— do you think Lexy could meet you? She's been my best friend since we were kids. I really, really wouldn't be alive without her. She's great. I love her.

[ Spongebob has now unlocked really emotional high Peregrine. ]

[employeeoftheyear]

I wanna meet her. She sounds like a real hero.

[A pause.]

Is she your girlfriend?

[comeandfindme]

[ Peregrine gasps, really loudly. ]

No!! Oh my god, I don't mean like that'd be bad. She's like. She's pretty. But she's my best friend!! And- and she likes my cousin a lot, I think- I think if we all get outta the woods okay they might start dating.

[employeeoftheyear]

Thaaaaaaa sounds like a crush~!

[Oh he is absolutely teasing now.]

[comeandfindme]

No, oh my god, I swear, it's not a crush! She's just my friend, I mean it!

[ noooo spongebob nooooooo!!! She shoves him, like, playfully. ]

[employeeoftheyear]

[Spongebob laughs, pushing back.]

Aww, c'mon, you can tell me. I won't tell.

[They're with others.]

[comeandfindme]

I'm serious!! Really, like— like I know what it sounds like, but I don't! Seriously! I don't remember the last time I- I even had a crush on anyone before here!
