Week 0: Monday

[battling]

[Walking up and down these halls with all these unmarked doors. They can't possibly all suck, can they?

Roll: 9]

Wanna try one?

[agleam]

[he nods!]

Yeah. It's a good idea to see where these all go, right?

[opening up the door! to a fairly normal looking sitting room...]

[battling]

This ain't too bad so far.

[He'll walk in and look around. Just looks like it belongs in the hotel.]

[agleam]

Yeah, it's not so—

[there's the sound of the door locking behind them immediately.]

Uh.

[battling]

Ah shit.

[He's going to go try it, but he's not great at picking locks and he has none of the tools.]

There somethin' we need t' do in here?

[agleam]

Let me guess. Locked?

[he sighs, glancing around until he sees a board game sitting on the table.]

Maybe that thing...?

[battling]

Didn't bring any lock picks.

[Can't even make them either]

Feel like I saw that in Fall. [Their many board games that they may or may not have played.]

[agleam]

Oh... Well, if you had it in your dorm, it's probably harmless. Right?

[making his way over to the box.]

Life...?

[battling]

It's just some game. We played a couple when we got locked in.

[Squints.]

Barely remember how it works now.

[agleam]

Maybe there are rules somewhere...?

[he'll open up the box to check.]

[battling]

[We will let them have the instructions.]

We gotta play t' get out?

[agleam]

I mean... If you have any other ideas, we can try. I don't really get how playing a game is going to make the door unlock, but weirder things have happened.

[battling]

Not really seein' any other ways out besides that. Ain't interested in bein' stuck all day.

[He'll take a seat across from Rupert. Let's play this dumb little game.]

[agleam]

[he reads out the rules.]

I... think I get it?

[battling]

Ain't like we gotta play it right.

[ he's about to cheat on this silly board game. Mostly because he can't be bothered to figure out how it really worked. ]

[agleam]

Didn't we decide we have to play it to get out of here? Is it still going to work if we don't follow the rules?

[battling]

Who's gonna hold us to it?

[agleam]

Maybe there's someone watching us and they're somehow controlling when the door unlocks...?

[battling]

There's gotta be more interestin' shit to watch.

[agleam]

I'm not going to pretend I understand how they think. I don't really want to understand that, anyways.

[battling]

[He takes a seat and starts properly sorting out the card stacks.]

[agleam]

Thanks.

[time for life!!]

[battling]

[He'll spin it and land on 7]

Highest number goes first?

[agleam]

Sure.

[he rolls a five.]

Looks like it's your go.

[battling]

[Stares at start college or start career.]

I ain't goin' back to school.

Lay out the career cards. [He's got to pick from these.]
