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)

I think I might have caught some sort of bizarre illness while here. [the illness of caring.....]

What? No. No. You aren't allowed into my world and I certainly don't wish to visit yours from what I've heard of it.

[expiatrice]

Are you sure it's not from over-indulging in sweets? [he's exhibiting an allergic reaction...]

Oh, it's not so bad. You'll feel right at home! Unless you'd truly prefer another creepy down after this one with no breaks in-between?

[encored]

[THIS IS THE END FOR HIM] No. Don't even try to use something like that as an explanation.

And that isn't much of a choice at all, is it? Why can't "return to your own world for a nice long break" be an option?

[expiatrice]

Your tolerance isn't as monstrous as Father's, it's true, but it's valid in his case, isn't it?

That's because I won't be getting a break, silly. I'd just be going back to resume work and continue hunting. At least it would be a lot less convoluted than this game, and I'm sure you'll find it refreshing if you accompany me on a job someday!

[encored]

It's valid in his case because he deserves it to be true. [that's not how logic works at all...]

Unlike you, I would be getting a break, so I'd actually still like to leave all of these rubbish options behind. Not even helping you with your work is enough to tempt me.
