Week 2

WEEK 2

[It's been one week on the Gigantic
and it's clear that Zero
is a big dickzzzzzsht



A week has passed. However, there is no denying anymore that the power Zero possesses is very real. One person is already dead because of this, regardless of what, exactly, the Gimme's role in it was.

There is also no denying that the ship is somehow powered by blood, if not made of blood entirely. Why? How? And what do the clues uncovered in the previous week have to do with it?

The watches, meanwhile have not changed in any way. Everyone is still in their color groups. The doors to the next floor are still locked as well. Perhaps those are also murder dependent. Which is...also not good. But at least there's food and laundry down here, so...maybe it'll get boring eventually, but for now, infinite confinement on the bottom decks of the ship may not be so bad. right?

...Right?



There are currently 18 strangers on this ship.]

[Turns to look directly at him. Oh, Zack.]

Then you should read the rules Zero has presented us much more carefully, Zack-kun.

. . .

That's not right. I don't care what the rules say!

[yesorwoof]

That's odd. Back during the stabbing game you were all too happy to inflict pain in the name of avoiding the bigger pain with which Zero threatened us.

[not_a_lego_maniac]

No I wasn't! I...I wasn't happy about it at all! It's why I tried to stab in a place where it wouldn't hurt. I didn't want to hurt anyone!

And...and besides, murder is different! very different! That's killing someone! You can't just heal from murder!

[yesorwoof]

So you're willing to react to not-yet-proven threats of nonlethal pain, but not a matter as grave as death. I see.

[Makima holds up her magenta "5" bracelet.]

Will we be able to heal if Zero activates the kill switch protocol in our bracelets?

[not_a_lego_maniac]

I-

I don't know. But...Zero is dangerous. He's proven that much. Non lethal or not...

I swear this is always what she was going to say

[yesorwoof]

And he likes to make us choose. You may have to choose sooner than you think. It probably won't be a pleasant choice. If you're going to fight, get ready now and not later.
