week 1
[Well, all escape attempts have failed thus far. None of you have seen the Phantom since his brief appearance on Sunday, or heard from him at all. It looks like, for the time being, you’re all going to be stuck here.
You're free to continue exploring your surroundings to your hearts' content. The only real restriction on your movements is that the kitchen is closed between the hours of 10 pm and 7 am. Better make sure to grab any midnight snacks you may want ahead of time. Also, remember to label any investigation toplevels!
The Merchandise Booth is now open for business as well! The Phantom hasn't deigned to explain how it works, but...well, some of you will start to find mysterious coins in your rooms, and the Booth's got a place to put coins. You'll figure it out.
Should you wish to engage more with your host, you're welcome to drop letters in the box office slot. There's no set way to converse verbally with him, and he's certainly not guaranteed to respond if you just yell at the walls - but that doesn't necessarily mean he isn't listening. Just something to keep in mind.
Enjoy your first week, everyone.]
Monday | Tuesday | Wednesday | Thursday | Friday | Saturday
(( OOC: This will be the last mod post for this week! Feel free to start submitting regains for any threads that aren't with the Phantom. Remember, song threads mean an extra coin! This is a peace week, so get all that CR while you can! ))

But does that have Riley down? Heck no!! She's got things to do, and...and a bunch of coins! Like, actually a whole lot of them. Yeah, how about taking a look at the merchandise booth.
She pulls some...interesting things? A light smile for the Tony, the cow is...a bit strange but kind of cute. The tuba raises some fuss ("Now what in the world am I going to do with this? Hello? Hello, can you hear me?") but Riley rolls her eyes and keeps depositing coins. There's the top hat, right? Maybe she'll have something better to wear, like. Something other than her T-shirt, shorts, track suit, and whatever costumes are in the shop.
...The way she wrinkles her nose at the boots, uh. This doesn't bode well. ]
This. Is a nightmare- [ A deep, practiced breath. It's okay. It's fine. One more coin, two more-
Oh. ]
This- this is... [ ...Well, rip to those other regains, at least for now, because Riley just. Kind of stands there, holding a trophy with a pretty green ribbon attached. Her lips pull taut and she swallows. She glances down at the inscription and she-
Riley's going to be here for awhile. You can find her sitting against the merchandise booth, quietly polishing this cheerleading trophy (a girl with her leg up in the air, of course it's a cheerleading trophy) with the opera gloves she received. Everything else is piled up, including the tuba (and the other regains, which, she'll eventually get to, promise). It doesn't matter if the trophy's already polished, she wants to make sure it shines. It has to shine.
...If it looks like you can carry things, on the off-chance she looks up and gets out of her own head, Riley'll kind of glance up and half-heartedly ask: ]
Oh- hey, um. Can you...help me out, with something? [ She lightly bops her head towards the tuba. ] I don't- that thing's a little big for me.
[ And, if you don't want to deal with All This- ...well, too bad, in the laundry room she's sitting quietly in a simple dress, waiting for her clothes to finish going through the washer. Looks like she's given up on finding things that she's used to... Anyway, she's still got that trophy, and she's still polishing it, but- periodically, now. At least she's using an actual cloth? ]

She gives a small smile.]
Yeah, no problem. Where do you want it?
no subject
Just, uh, that music room? I can't play it. But maybe someone else can.

What's the trophy for?

[ Disdain, sarcasm, a bunch of things Riley's been mostly keeping under wraps. ]

[Sigyn lightly presses her shoulder to Riley's]
Do you want to talk?
no subject
[ Riley feels so much like that crying little girl in the rain. Can't get up and run away, can't do anything about the hurt she feels. Just stuck there. Her gaze remains on the trophy, but at least she's stopped polishing it. ]
...It's nothing to do with here. Besides, like- the fact that it showed up, so. Gotta stay focused on what...matters right now, right?
[ But, trying to sound like all this doesn't matter... It's not right to her. She sure doesn't sound like she believes what she's saying. ]

Oh. Hi, Nana. Do you need to use the...coin thing?
no subject
[ She lifts up the cloth and reveals a bunch of cookies. ]
Want one? They're just oatmeal this time.
no subject
[ And sits up a little straighter. ]
Hold on, why are you taking those to the box office?
no subject
Oh well... I was going to leave them there... for someone...
[ ...yeah there's only one someone you leave anything at the box office for sooooo... ]
no subject
Ohhh, no. Nana, not you too. Him? Really?
no subject
W-Well, I just thought it wouldn't hurt to be nice to him, you know? And he liked the last few things I left for him...
[ Oh god this isn't even the FIRST baked good she's given him. ]
no subject
[ One hand on the trophy, the other into her hair as she covers her face. Positivity. Positivity. Positivity. Oooh, she can't do it right now. ]
He kidnapped us. Away from our homes, our dreams, our friends. And apparently he's taking our things, too! [ She waves the trophy around, a little haphazardly. ] How can I get you and Christine to understand he is not going to help us?

Wait, like. You found it here? But it's yours?
