graveyard
You awaken in a darkened theatre.
In front of you is an enormous cinema screen. On it plays everything that's currently happening in the castle, accompanied by appropriate sound effects and background instrumentals when fitting. The seat you're sitting on is large and plush, and while there's many of them, there's enough room in the theatre for you to fully recline the seat into a comfortable bed if you wish. Under each seat is a sleeping mask and noise-cancelling headphones, in case you'd like to take a break from watching the show.
Follow the stairs up and you'll reach what should be the projection room. There are no projectors in here, however; it is simply a large and well-lit room above the main seating area, and a good place to hang out with your fellow eliminated contestants if shouting at each other across the aisles proves too much to handle.
If you leave the theatre through the door in the back, you'll find yourself in a hall. On one end is a concession stand. It's stocked with standard movie snacks - popcorn, candy and the like - but if you're feeling the urge for something else, you'll be able to find it stocked somewhere in the back. On the other end is a table with thirty wrapped bags and a placard reading 'A star for our stars! Please accept these lovely giftbags as a token of appreciation for your hard work, sponsored by [illegible smudge]'. Each bag has a tag bearing the name of someone in the mansion; you will only be able to open the bag with your name on it. As soon as you open it, any memories that have been taken from you, including those of the other people in the mansion that you may have forgotten, will be returned in their entirety. Within the bag are also objects from your home that you may want for your stay here, though you will find no weapons.
Past the hall is another door, this one wooden and seemingly decayed. If you go inside, you'll find a fairly simple, wooden room, that is empty except for a very large machine. It is difficult to tell what the machine is for; it has a touch screen that appears to be a control panel, as well as a large open space that seems to be part of the machine, but the machine is dead and won't turn on no matter what you do.
Still, at least you aren't alone here. You have your fellow players, as well as a few guests to keep you company.
Oh, and one more thing. At midnight following each execution, once all those who've died that week have woken up, a video will begin to play on screen.
no subject
[Wait, Ryou, you can't just say that without any explanation. At least it sounds like Phoenix has convinced him, once he related it to that.]
It looks like Apollo-san might have found something important... But Feferi-chan's reaction is worrying. [She hasn't jumped out the window yet, okay.]
no subject
But the mention of Feferi brings him back to the screen. He doesn't say anything for a while though, just watching in silence, until it's starting to look like she's about to jump. He tenses up noticeably at that. ]
What are they...?
no subject
F...feferi-chan!! [Ryou yelps and covers his mouth in shock when she suddenly jumps out the window.] Oh no--!
[He's kind of not even paying attention to Phoenix now, since he's lept out of his seat and is leaning over the chair in front of him.]
no subject
Phoenix's reaction isn't nearly as extreme but he's totally freaking out on the inside... Outwardly, his grip on the seat armrests is so tight his knuckles are going white.
When he sees that she gets right back up after hitting the ground, he lets up slightly but holy shit what the hell is wrong with you Apollo. Making a frustrated noise. ]
He needs to cool it down.
no subject
[He covers his mouth, looking a little ill.
Feferi had glass stuck all over her, and it looked really painful.]
no subject
Phoenix's voice is quiet as he speaks but he's looking directly at the screen. ]
... She's terrified. She really thinks they're going to kill her.
no subject
I can't watch...
no subject
He might not be able to watch, but Phoenix's eyes are glued to the screen until Athena shows up to talk Feferi down. Only then does he look away, at Ryou. ]
Athena's talking to her now. She'll be able to calm her down. [ But what happens next... ] After confirming whether she was behind week two, what was your group planning to do?
no subject
...I wasn't really a part of any group. I just knew. Kaoru-san told so I would be wary of Feferi-chan, and that's why I told Rin-chan too. He told me he'd help me stay safe... I knew they were trying to spread the information so Feferi-chan wouldn't find out, but other than that...
I don't know what they planned to do, and I... I don't want to think about it. I feel bad enough already.
