graveyard
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.

Message Content: Hey. I made it to this side okay. Not much to report except it's the same as it is over there for now. Just a big terminal with a ton of shops.
I don't think you'd want what I was carving for you by now after what I did. I'll try to think of something else to send ya.
Take care of yourself.

Message Content: Hey. I got to the other side okay. Not much to report on how things are here. Just another airport terminal with lots of shops.
Thanks for all you and Justice did. I'm sorry, for what that's worth. Funny how you asked me that question in the first week and the same thing happened twice anyway. Funny and sad.
Take care of yourself and the team. And lighten up, will ya? Everyone gave you a hard time when you said that. Maybe think on why for a sec'.
By the way, when did y'all start wearing earrings?

Didn't get to tell you this, but I hope someday we'll share more drink. Hope things stay as fine as they can over there, especially after the hell you been through.

Message Content: Hey there. I got on the other side okay. I almost thought it'd be you cutting me up out there on the runway. I bet you'd jump at the chance to take out anyone with as much brass as you.
I'd say take care, but you like getting into trouble, don't you? Then stay safe for Kate's sake. And keep the little purple guy in check. Looks like you two come in a set.

Message Content: Hey. Stop fudging punching at everything with a face on it. Maybe just get a few sparring matches in with other people to calm the heck down. You've got some fighters over there. You save that aggression for the competition or for beating the snot out of the auditors.

Message Content: Just letting you know I'm fine over here.
Thinking back on it, it was nice of you to try getting me out of that cell, but it was awful stupid too. You're in school, aren't you? You've got brains? Don't go letting guys who just killed someone outta jail just 'cause they told you to. Don't matter who they are. You do it again and you're gonna get a lashing from me in one of these messages and I'll get the others in on it too. You're smarter than that.
Anyway, take care of yourself, kid. You want a pool that badly? Go win it for the team.

Message Content: I don't know how much the others told you about wherever the dead go, but just letting you know I'm fine over here and so is Essek. Guess all I can really do is wish you well. Wish you'd remember more so it feels less bad leaving a normal guy like you over on that side. Take care, y'hear?

Message Content: Hey Barkeep. I'm fine over here. You know, when we were fighting over our room renovations, I wanted one of them private bars, and I was gonna tell them we should recruit you on our team to make drinks? Didn't get to tell you that before everything went forkin' sideways. Here's hoping I get to try that drink you owe me someday. You owe me a wrestling match too. Good luck with the competition, even if my team is gonna whoop your team's behind.

Recipient: Kate
Message Content: Thanks for wanting to believe in me. I swear I didn't remember a thing till the votes were in. I wish you didn't have to see all of that.
You were running the whole show at the investigation, Kate. You're a smart girl. We're gonna do everything we can to help from this side, so you just us know what you need and we'll try to get it for you. I just got here so I still need to investigate.
Just know things are fine. It's almost the same thing here as it is over there: one big terminal, lots of shops. Nothing's trying to kill us yet.
We're keeping an eye on everyone, so tell them to behave, yeah?
I'm sorry again, Kate. Take care.

Don't know if you saw it on the runway, but that there is part of why playing guitar means a lot to me. I already played before I had her, and I can play a mean harmonica too. I'll let you hear it someday if you play some for me too.
Send over any other funny shots you take, huh? You take care now.

Message Content: Hey. I made it okay over here. I'm sorry I scared ya to death in that cell. I didn't get to know you, but some of you are too dang young and too dang flimsy to even be here, so of course I'm gonna worry. Watch out for yourself, okay? I'll help y'all from this side if I can.

Message Content: Hi there, Princess Rosie. I made it over to the other side okay. Essek's here too. Things are the same here as they are over there, pretty much. Just can't get back to where you all are.
I don't know what you did, but the fact that you smiled at me even when I was off my rocker in that cell helped me come to my senses more than anyone else, even if it was just for a second. Thanks for that. I don't know how ya do it after these games tear people up from the inside.
I owe you some stories. You send me some too, got it?

You're one mysterious woman. For what it's worth, I am sorry about going off on you with these fake memories. You saw through it all anyway, but I am. Take care.

Message Content: What's one more time, huh?
Bad joke. Anyway, hey there. I made it to the other side okay, and Essek is here too (if you care). It ain't like the other side at Scawwy at all. It's just another airport terminal with shops and stuff. Dying don't get easier, but at least you're still good after it happens. That's a little comforting, right? Maybe?
Take care, Totty.

Recipient: Violet
Message Content: Hey there. Made it to the other side okay along with Essek. It's the same over here as it is over there, so just know there ain't nothing to worry about. You're a tough lady so you don't need any worrying over either, but I hope you take care of yourself. We should've shared a few more drinks and had another tussle. Hang in there.

You ain't like I remember, Devil, but I'm counting on you like I am the rest of them. Don't give the team a hard time, all right? Or you're gonna hear it from me.
