CALHOUN HOUR - Get ready to party!

[vivariummods]

Every third day, there would normally be an Ambidex Round going on, but today, it's different. Calhoun still screeches for everyone to wake up, that will never change, but instead of trying to rush people into a Chromatic Door, he instead splits everyone up into groups. Child Test Subject (Kariya) with Fancy Test Subject (Zelos)! That's Team One. Team Two will have the Nice Test Subject (Hershel), Hat-wearing Test Subject (Akiko), and Ditzy Test Subject (Aoi)! Team Three is the Giant Test Subject (Jake), Also Nice Test Subject (Colette), and the Blind Test Subject (Light)! Finally, the rest will be Team Four, with Tiny Test Subject (Clive), Mean Test Subject (Heiji), and Will-Gladly-Drug-Again Test Subject (Ema). Oh, why is Team One having only two people instead of three? Where is the French Test Subject (Enjorlas)? Well, he got sick too, there must be something going around, so he was also quarantined for this moment, but don't worry, Team One! Calhoun has something up his sleeves for you, so you're not missing out. But anyway, each team needs to go into an AB Room and stay in there. This is going to be a fun game, and anyone who refuses? Well, then he can gladly make those bracelets go off, and then you can have a nice long death. It's up to you, really, but let's make this easy and have fun inside the rooms, okay? Well, he'll see you all soon! BASIC INFO ✖ TEAMS + ROOMS ✖ POST-GAME MINGLE ✖ CALHOUN'S CORNER ✖ GENERAL MINGLE

A bag of Snackoos! You got something to say about it?

[puzzlinglad]

[ . . . ]

Well, it's just that, you know... don't you want something like a toothbrush first?

[skyentificmethod]

[.........]

...No?

[puzzlinglad]

[ . . . . . . ]

... Ema, frankly I'm a little concerned about your priorities here.

[skyentificmethod]

...

...

Quiet, please. [it is imaginary snack time]

[puzzlinglad]

[That's it, he's convinced, everyone he's made friends with in this murder game is completely mental.]

[... He's not even going to ask what she's doing.] On the er... bright side, if you save I'm sure you can buy those... what are then? Snackeronis? [He's trying. No he's not.] Though maybe you should get some cheaper things first.

[skyentificmethod]

But...

[okay, you are not going to whine about candy to a high school student

even if you did not realise until this very moment it was the BEST SNACK EVER

just...frowning. a lot.]

What'd you get, then?

[puzzlinglad]

[... He feels kind of bad for her, she really wanted this snackoroni or whatever huh. He wasn't going to tell her he thought they looked kind of weird rather than good, he doesn't have a death wish...] I'm sure Calhoun will have another event like this, don't worry, Ema. [Optimism in the face of not getting snackoos.]

[And he glances away a little awkwardly.] Uh well, a toothbrush and toothpaste for me, and one fore Jake since he gave me food once and I figured I should pay him back. I think he's going to try to choke me with them and claim he doesn't need charity but I think if I just leave them at his feet and run he might not be able to catch me.

I still have 30 coins though, I don't know what to do with them. Maybe shampoo... [His fro needed it.] Oh, what are you doing with your stars?

[skyentificmethod]

Wonder if I could trade 'em in... I mean, a BP's gotta be worth at least a donut.

[puzzlinglad]

[your priorities again...]

Or you could save your BP and hope unlocking 'good food' includes donuts.

[skyentificmethod]

...We can unlock 'good food'? I never knew about this.

[possibly due to not paying attention and/or being drugged but you know, things happen]

[puzzlinglad]

[Oh right, you were unconscious for that...] Ask Heiji, he actually remembers how much BP we need for everything but one of the levels was 'good food,' whatever that means. We're getting close to medical supplies and a dormitory, too.

[skyentificmethod]

Huh. Graduating from hard and grimy floor would definitely be a bonus. ...Though I guess with all that hair, it's kind of like having a pillow.

[puzzlinglad]

One of the reasons I think I'll scrap the dreadlock plan until pillow are readily available.

Oh, I think he said the medical supplies cost BP though. I hope they're actually useful and not just a box of bandaids.

[skyentificmethod]

I dunno, if it's a big enough box, it'd be pretty useful around here. You, Jake, and Heiji could get matching Pink Princess bandages!

[puzzlinglad]

Honestly it may be worth it just to see Jake wearing one of those. It wouldn't help with the stab wounds much but it'd certainly boost moral.

[skyentificmethod]

I don't see how that wouldn't be plenty of help in and of itself. I'd feel better.

[puzzlinglad]

Moral is important... I guess giving Calhoun this one, somewhat bad idea wouldn't be the worst thing.

[skyentificmethod]

It is up to you to undertake this important quest. The British accent makes it all sound a lot more legit.

[puzzlinglad]

Ema, I think that's reaching a bit, but I'll take that as a compliment rather than an attempt to get me to do the dirty work here. [What a gentleman.]

[skyentificmethod]

Would I say it if it wasn't at least a little bit true? And either way, your word probably holds a lot more weight with that thing than mine does.

[puzzlinglad]

Yes, Calhoun isn't a fan, is he? [that was putting it mildly given her nickname from him] At least you haven't given him any reason to be mad at you lately, right? [...right?]

[skyentificmethod]

[only breaking some of his puzzle room and well maybe that time i punched him yesterday but you know, nothing big]

As if I care what that sewer-dweller thinks. It'd do better trying not to give me reasons to be mad at it!

[puzzlinglad]

[... you punched him. Ema.]

It's less about his feelings and more I really don't want to see you drugged again, that can't be good for you, barring hitting your head when you fall...

[skyentificmethod]

[:DDDDDDDDDDD]

...Save the prince in shining afro bit for someone else. Unlike most everyone else you know, I can take care of myself.
