graveyard part five

[gamehead]

hunter's game the graveyard You wake up in an unfamiliar cabin. At first, it almost seems like you're in an entirely different place and that everything had been just a dream. The interior of the cabin looks nothing like the run-down, old-timey shacks that you had been living in before. Everything in here is sleek and modern, from the enormous flat-screen TV mounted on the wall to the fridge and mini-bars stocked with all your favorite foods. There aren't any individual rooms in here, just a common area large enough to house everyone comfortably, no matter how many more people join you...and there will be plenty more people joining you before the week is over. Because if you look outside the window, it quickly becomes clear that not only are you still in Prayer's Pass, but that you are no longer among the realm of the living. Judging from the tombstones directly outside, you're now in what had been the abandoned broken-down cabin in the graveyard. The cabin's not all that changed; the world outside has gone completely grey and everything you see appears to be faded and blurry. The only things that remain sharp and in color are what's inside the cabin, including your fellow ghosts. Occasionally, people who are still alive may enter, but it's clear that what they're seeing is completely different from what you're seeing. The door's unlocked; however, a mysterious force prevents you from stepping beyond the threshold, no matter how hard you may try. After all, this cabin is a cage for the dead - a gilded one, perhaps, but a cage nonetheless. On the flat-screen TV plays everything that is currently happening in the town. It will shut off once night starts...and something else will appear instead. (The graveyard so far)

Duh! I don't know what they were thinking. I mean seriously. And people have like the audacity to call me dumb.

Also he might not be a jerk, but he is literally the most depressing guy you will ever meet.

[vytis]

Were they really going after the single men first or were they trying to make it look like you were being framed or something?

[Apparently it is now get wolf deets time.]

[notyetlost]

Single men. England and some of the others put together some save the women and children clause.

Weenies.

[vytis]

I suppose my guess at what you'd get if you won was wrong after all, then.

[Lithuania is not aware the wolves cannot explain their motivations after death, sorry. Death newbie and all.]

[notyetlost]

Mmm... not necessarily. England messed with our heads the first night being a idiot so.

Guess. I can't tell you. I mean it doesn't matter now, but like it's literally the one rule we're not supposed to break even dead and I've already ticked off enough people since you decided to go all burning man on me.

[vytis]

Even here? [Lithuania doesn't sound like he's holding it against Poland or anything, more curious as to how that might slot into his guess.]

...Ah, my guess was probably far too optimistic. A little childishly hopeful, even?

[notyetlost]

Yeah. It was kind of a total pain the butt when I got here. I mean I really got the brunt of the ewww wolves are evil ewww poland is evil by association ewwww junk, but whatever I could handle it.

[Poland grins. Lithuania sounds like he's heading in the right direction. Not that he'll confirm anything.] Go on~

[vytis]

When Mr. Wayne died, those who knew him seemed so insistent that he wouldn't kill anyone. Insistent enough I didn't vote for him. And then Miss Ada--she seemed like such a sweet girl, you know?

I thought--you know, maybe you could bring people back if you won, or something like that. [He laughs, a bit embarrassed.] Or maybe I just like wolves too much. I've always had a bit of a running theme there.

[notyetlost]

[Poland doesn't say anything, but hums contently.]

[vytis]

[Lithuania laughs.]

What a mess everything's become. I wonder what the clues will do.

[notyetlost]

Who knows. I can't even figure out what they're supposed to mean really, that's why I made you do it.

[Poland remembers the wording of Critter's promise that night in the woods. After studying clues for so long, maybe he'd gotten a little over zealous with parsing it's words but...]

Solving the real game sounded like the best alternative really. You have no idea how hard it was for Mayu and I to convince Kanaya.

[vytis]

Really? What else is there to do here? ...Besides eat, I suppose.

[At least clues seemed productive.]

[notyetlost]

Now that all the clues are out?

Drink.

[Sorry Liet, you missed all the sacrificial drama.]

[vytis]

[Hey, that's some good luck for once.]

Only if they have proper beer here.

[notyetlost]

Yeah the food and booze here are like the best part. At first I was like, oh my god is this going to be like one of Greece's weird myths where if you eat the food of the dead you're totally stuck forever?

But then I was like. Yeah whatever I'm hungry. And the fridge has good paluszki and wodka so.

[Yes, that is literally all he has been eating for two weeks. Aside from a rogue pierogi craving.]

[vytis]

...Is that all you've had?

[Poland that's not healthy!]

[notyetlost]

Maybe.

[Hey like don't give him that face Lithuania. You don't know me. You don't know my life death.]

[vytis]

You are going to double die of malnutrition, eat a proper meal right now!

[notyetlost]

Um... Earth to Liet.

We're already dead.

[vytis]

That's no excuse for poor eating habits.

[Lithuania stands up and drags Poland to the kitchen area.]

[notyetlost]

[Poland is dragged.]

Liet there's like not even a toilet in this place, I don't think we're digesting stuff!

[vytis]

Then once this is over and you do start digesting things and all you've been eating for--two weeks--has been snack food, you're going to be sorry, aren't you?

[Here is some balandėliai you will be eating it right now.]

[notyetlost]

[Poland laughs.]

Oh my god is the King of the upset tummies seriously lecturing me on my diet?

[He won't say no to Lithuania's ridiculous doting though.]

[vytis]

When your diet is paluszki--hey! [Swatting Poland, though not hard enough to interfere with him getting a proper meal.]

[notyetlost]

[Ehehe hee hee~]

You're such a dork.
