week 1

[stagemanagers]

[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! ))

[he doesn't need to be told twice. Powder get, and after a moment, he finds a large bowl and fills it with water as well. The soda'll be the main neutralizer, but if they need to wash it off something - or worse, someone...

Off to the Lobby it is! We would say 'nyoom', but this is going anything but fast. Also, why is he hearing music again.]

[revelfree]

[Ariel hears it to. And like the first instance, he's doing his best to ignore the implications. Not to mention biting his tongue to keep from singing.

He will tap his foot though. Not because it's catchy. No, he's clearly just impatient.]

Stephen. Allow me to be the first to say -- if anything happens, it has been a pleasure.

[It really is catchy, isn't it...but...he clears his throat before answering;]

Say that again and I'm dumping this [a heft of the water bowl] on your head. [He's joking.

...Mostly.

Also, if that was said in rhythm with the music, it was completely unintentional.]

[revelfree]

[Ariel grins, wide and amused. He doesn't wait another moment, opting to pour the mixture whatever hinges he can reach. He steps back as soon as each is coated, arm lifted to protect his eyes if need be.]

Stay back.

[37773972]

[Yeeeaah you really think he's gonna shove his face in that? Hell no. He takes another step back and sets the water against the wall where it won't be knocked over by someone passing by - he hopes - and the soda with it, before reaching up to adjust his bandana-mask]

Anything happening?

[revelfree]

[Ariel shifts juuuust close enough to get a good look at a hot load of nothing.]

Perhaps it needs time? It's not a perfect recreation of the substance, and even then, that's begging that the hinges are made of the right materials. [A beat.]

We could leave it? Put up a warning sign and see what happens in the morn?
