WEEK 1

[whimsicalism]

Well! That was some tea party, huh? You've finally seen the faces (or perhaps the singular is more proper here?) of your captors. A pair of creepy twins seem to fit the overall theme of the Castle at least. Why not have Twiddle Dee and Twiddle Dum, after all?

Regardless, it doesn't seem that they're changing their minds any time soon. The first floor of the Castle is still open up to you. The Audience Hall is still locked most of the time so perhaps you can meet the Alices there if you need to. There are plenty of things to occupy your time before the inevitable slow erosion of your memories. If this is a game, who will make the first move? You or the twins?

Monday | Tuesday | Wednesday | Thursday | Friday | Saturday

((OOC: Welcome to peace week! There will be no case this week so just have fun and explore. If you want to investigate please put Investigation in your top level. Don't forget to put threads in for regains or go to the Audience Hall to meet the Alices.

Also, if you want to keep up to date on things we now have a discord server!))

[Almost as soon as one of Amdi gums the tape, that member drops it and backs away looking like someone has done it a heckin bamboozle. And then quickly another one of him scoots up to try the nom again, and he looks even more bamboozled.]

Wh-wha?! It was soft! But... just for a second! That was...

[Amdi may not know super good what plastic is all about, but he DOES have a notion that black + opaque + shiny = probably hard, and he was definitely NOT expecting to grab what felt like a quilted jaw-handle.]

[littlebratziska]

It was??

[She picks up the tape, really trying to focus as she does, and looks at it from all angles.

It's just a video tape.]

So... is it whatever is most unusual for each individual person, not what is uniformly rarest, that... that works like this?

[octopups]

M-maybe? I mean... I've seen "plastic" before, but only on stuff from Jefri's space ship, s-so...

[littlebratziska]

S-space ship?

[Well, he IS very different from anyone back home...]

I thought they were usually made of metal, aren't they?

[SHE KNOWS NOTHING about rocketship design but isn't plastic kinda flimsy for a spaceship tho?]

[octopups]

Oh yeah the outside was made of metal! I meant some of the things inside like the coldsleep pods and the commset. I touched the commset box once when Jefri and I pranked Mr. Steel but we weren't allowed to touch it after that.

[Sorry Franzie all of the humans Amdi knows came from space he still kind of assumes all humans know about spaceship things.]

[littlebratziska]

I-I don't think we have those, where I'm from.

[IN THE END WHO KNOWS, REALLY, SHE'S NO SPACEFLIGHT EXPERT. She knows they have spaceships and hasn't looked further into it than that by much - cut her a break here she can't know everything yet. Give her a couple more years.]
