WEEK 1


[So, once Zero has said his peace, everything is quiet as the week dawns. A new Game. Nonary, Decision, Murder. All three. It doesn't matter. Everyone is here to kill or die. The coin has been tossed, the die is cast. The rules are set; the watches are active.

The question now is, why? Why is this happening? Why you? Surely no one is so desperate to kill on this ship, right? Not when the people onboard are so interesting and varied. Perhaps everyone can get along; perhaps there's a way off the ship without bloodshed. Of course, if there is, it might be be best to be prepared for a long stay-there's no doubt Zero won't make it that easy to escape. Then there's the matter that-apparently-people have new powers they did not possess before, while those the strangers once had are gone. Perhaps it's time to test those out and see what they can do if you're not Kira.

So, let's see what happens this week. Hopefully it will be a peaceful one.

There are currently 19 strangers on this ship.]

[Keith....

Ah. Yes, he'd heard about the poor boy's fate...if not exactly why it happened.]

Emotions are....difficult, but I believe they...will enrich your life. I am...sorry for what happened...to him. That must be....difficult for you, especially...with emotions being so...new.

[She nods. She thinks that, too, for all she's trying not to think about the future beyond the next immediate step.]

I'm not a stranger to...loss. But this was different. He, um, we were roommates.

[hatesdeerstalkers]

Ah...yes, that...would make it difficult.

[A Roomate...though they haven't been here that long, by virtue of having to sleep in the same area would make you inclined to miss someone.]

The best you can do now....is to make sure you follow...the path he had begun to help you with. And...seek out help, if you need it.

[autonomousthought]

[Nodding. Keith was the first time she'd felt another person's touch.]

He was...kinder and more gentle than he came across.

I'm going to try. ...Cooperation is...at my core, so to speak. I want to help everyone here as much as I can.
