graveyard...2
GRAVEYARD
Notice of an itinerary change—
Well, shucks! You died. This might be a familiar experience for you, maybe not. Either way, you're probably feeling distinctly less dead now, with any injuries you previously obtained now healed. Grogginess still clouds your mind, but in a way that's reminiscent of waking up rather than anything nefarious.
... Not too unlike when you first arrived here, actually. Namely, because you wake up in what looks to be an airport terminal. Again! It's not quite the same as the one you were in before, but you're not free of airports yet, it seems. To be specific, you're in the baggage claim area, in the most literal sense: lying in an open suitcase on the carousel, going round and around (or, if you were unlucky, you might've tumbled out of the suitcase as it slid down onto the conveyor belt). You might want to hop off at some point.
If you're worried about your belongings, you can find them either on your person or in another suitcase chugging along on the belt. Once you retrieve everything, there's a new area to explore. Plus, reunions to be had with those who died before you, or with the four Hosts you haven't seen since the first week. And should you be worried about the living side, there are various screens around the terminal, allowing you to still watch what's going on over there.
► GRAVEYARD RUNDOWN
- You are able to see the living (and their public network posts).
- Weekly effects are still active.
- Any personal items you didn't give away before your death are with you in the graveyard.
- You can still use your curse items on the living, with the usual caveats of avoiding OOC inconvenience (e.g. no effects that would last into Thursday night).
- The graveyard has its own set of NPCs (Maestro, Bora, Libeccio, Scirocco). You are no longer able to contact the living side's NPCs via audiences, but you can talk to the other four once again.
- If you get injured and would like to be healed (within reason), the graveyard NPCs can heal to varying degrees, so feel free to handwave tapping them until you got one who could help you.
- You may handwave the NPCs explaining the basics to you: you're alive again, but you're unable to regroup with the "living" side due to lacking a mode of transportation to the airport terminal where they are, and a barrier is blocking people from leaving the old-fashioned way. Trying to book a ride is a work in progress for the entire graveyard.
- As of Week 4, the memshare effect from Week 3 remains.

Was it the ribbons? Because yeah, I got mine. The stuff gets thrown over here in kind of a jumble so if you don’t label the thing with who it’s from, I have no idea who sent it.
Anyway, whenever we try to send shit to you guys on any day other than Sunday, we go nuts and send you garbage. I don’t remember half the shit I’ve sent. We can see your texts, and we’re not far from each other in here so we end up seeing a lot of the stuff that gets sent to each other, but. It’s mostly private.
We’ve got some stuff going for us over here. Ask around about the documents people have been getting after their trips, might give you a better idea of what’s going on. Other than that, I don’t know. My advice? Go nuts. They want a show, right? So give them a show, and make it dramatic. Bet you can manage that much, right?
And we’ve got alcohol, don’t worry, we’re probably more set than you guys. Far as requests go? The stuff you’ve been sending is great. If you see something and think of me and send it? That’s all I can ask for. Oh, and more of those stickers. That shit rules.
Next time I message you might be more stupid shit about horses, so. See you around.

Sorry this took forever. Can’t say shit during the week, we go insane. Today - Sunday - is the only day I don’t lose my fucking mind when I pick up my phone. It might be getting better, so stay tuned.
Guess that’s fine though because it means I took a minute to think about what I feel about everything, and the answer is I’m still pissed. But there’s really no point in dragging you down further when you looked like you were about to cave in on yourself.
Not quite at forgiving you yet. Might not ever. But I know it wasn’t your fault.
I don’t want to have this conversation like this so if I see you in person again we can talk about it.
Don’t hold onto the guilt, princess. It doesn’t do anything for anybody, and it makes me feel like an ass. Just do your best.

Your messages are going through fine. If you send something my way, make sure you label it on the package, okay? Sometimes we get shit and I don’t know if it’s for me. But thanks.
I don’t know what to say here really. I miss you and Strohl. If you’re the one that sent me the crossed out messages, sorry. I’ve been pissed, taking it out on people who don’t deserve it. Princess apologized and it’s not really enough but I can’t do shit about it here. I’m fucking climbing the walls with how much I hate just sitting around and how much it feels like I’m losing you guys the longer I’m here. But keep going. Maybe you'll end up over here. I wouldn't hate that. Is that fucked up? Probably.
What dreams are you talking about? Haven’t heard anything about those. I guess don’t always write off our insane shit we send you, though. It’s still us.
Take care of Strohl, like always. Let him take care of you.
Love you.

Apparently your shrimp episode inspired a particularly fucking insane string of texts so uh sorry about that. Sorry about your team taking so much of the brunt but I guess that’s sort of where we’re at too, huh. Wahoo and Meows are thinning out. Everybody woke up fine over here though so don't worry about it. Yoru's on the warpath but I bet you'd expect that.
It’s nice when you guys send us messages. Feels like we’re not forgotten. Even when they’re insane shit like hot shrimp, you weirdo. Haha.
Oh, and Bora said you told them to look after me. You're cute. Thanks.

Is it stupid that knowing you voted for her makes me feel better? There’s so much shit going on in my head all the time, lately. Princess apologized and I’ve been drunk most of the week. Sorry if I upset Hulkenberg, I just saw people being good to Rosamund and the shitty selfish part of me got teeth into people who didn’t deserve it. Anders talked me through it and I think I’m okay. Or I’m getting there.
I miss you. Miss everybody on your side actually. Tell them to sign their messages. Send me pictures of Strohl Jr. Keep texting me so I don't feel invisible. Maybe you'll end up over here. I wouldn't hate that. Is that fucked up? Probably. Yoru said it was, and if she's saying something is fucked up? It probably is.
Make sure you ask around about the documents people have been getting. Might give you some insight on the competition. And loosen up a little, okay? Let your team pull you into nonsense.
Love you,

Doing fine. Bored. Angry. Not much to update but I’ll try to send more messages during the week even if they’re stupid. Maybe I’ll send presents. Keep an eye out for stuff. Maybe cause some chaos? Go steal something from another lounge or something, it's free entertainment. If someone tells you to put a bomb in someone else’s lounge DON’T do that.
Miss you.

Hope you’re coping. Can’t really think of anything to say other than hey. We’re still here. Hope you found a solid spot to get a drink - and quit fighting people so hard when they say they want you around. I saw you getting fussy at people asking you to stay with them during curfew.

I got your stuff. Tried to let you know I got your stuff, but somehow became a deranged postal worker instead. We can see just about everything you guys do. We see your texting too so if you want to tell us stuff through there, you’re golden.
I miss you guys. I miss our lounge. Sorry our team keeps bleeding out, I’m looking out for whoever I can, especially Anders. He’s not our team but I know he’s one of yours anyway. Maybe spread a little joy, yeah? The four of you could probably steal a whole couch from like, Meowsandry or something, and never give it back. Pull some pranks. It’s what I’d do if I was there.
Nothing else really to say right this second. I just wanted to keep contact so I don’t feel like we’re invisible. The drink was really fucking good, I’m assuming that was you.
Make sure you ask around about the documents people have been getting too, by the way. Might give you some insight on the competition.

How are you doing?
I know it's probably been hard but you guys are doing great. Even if I can't always be there to back you up, we're all watching and most of us are cheering you on. I say most of because Yoru's a weirdo but she probably means it in her own way or something, I don't know.
You were a cute kid by the way. Haha.

Uh. Sorry about the horses.
I believe you, though. You had a busy week huh. You okay? I know you're gonna say yes because you get squirmy when people show you any sort of affection but whatever. Just curious.
Damn though, I thought it might have been their stuff, considering. I recognized the lights. I still want to go, yeah, even if you were joking. You can tell them that if they forget it. Maybe they’ll believe I don’t blame them for being dead if you say it, I don’t know.
How is everybody else? Are they doing okay? I can only see what they send me and what you fuckers do in public, so if anybody is struggling I have no idea.
Oh, and I’ll look after Roxana as much as she lets me.
We're still here.

I was watching, yeah. We usually are. Don’t worry, you did the best you could. It’s a whole thing, having to solve that many bodies in the time you got. Honestly, sweetheart, I didn’t envy you.
I knew Asa, yeah. She was my roommate, in the previous game. She doesn’t know me here, but that’s alright. I’ll keep an eye on them for you. You mind telling me about more of your friends from that place? I'd love to hear about them. I always like getting mail from you.
Miss you.
