[ WEEK ONE ]

WEEK ONE

CURRENT POPULATION: 40

It's a rather quaint town when you get down to it. At least, that's what the Sheriff would argue. Warm and dry in the mornings and afternoons with a brisk coolness in the evenings. The perfect type of weather to just sit out on your rocking chair and observe the comings and goings.

... Of course, there's not much in the way of comings and goings when there aren't any actual people here to watch. Nevertheless, don't let that get you down! The town is your oyster and those roosters won't stop crowing until everyone's out of bed. Up and at 'em, rise and shine, it's time to make the day yours!

After all, there's nothing wrong with the town today and you might just want to savor it while it lasts.



This post functions as the general mingle post for the week. Wanted Posters and other small events will be posted in top levels below. If there's any questions or requests, please send a PM or shoot a PP to [plurk.com profile] robowest.

I think just putting our lives on risk isn't going to be enough incentive to get us to kill each other.

[Yeah, he's not in denial]

The Sheriff must have some sort of plan up his sleeve.
insincerely: ᴍᴀɴɢᴀ. (no really stop trying to ask me out)

[personal profile] insincerely 2017-01-15 11:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, I think some people could be pushed, especially if this goes on for long enough. [...] But I agree in that whoever's behind this probably doesn't intend to sit around and wait for that possibility.

It's too bad Mr. Sheriff didn't specify what his plan for a stalemate was, but I suppose keeping us in suspense is shaping up to be his specialty.

It's matter of time before someone dies. I just hope when the time comes we won't mess up during the trial.

[That Sheriff is frustrating, really]

That's what people like him do, never let your victims have any information. Can't say I'm surprised.
insincerely: ᴍᴀɴɢᴀ. (allow me to give you my informed opinion)

[personal profile] insincerely 2017-01-16 02:58 am (UTC)(link)
We probably will. Collectively as a group, I don't see us being very bright.

[He shrugs.]

He'd be a fool to tell us everything we want to know.

I don't know, there are many around here that seem smart enough to not to let the trials crash and burn.

[Whether they'll be able to listen each other and not fight is an entirely different matter]
insincerely: ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ. (do you want to punch this face yet)

[personal profile] insincerely 2017-01-16 04:28 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe. Mob mentality can be a dangerous thing, however—and who knows how these "smart enough" people will react when under real pressure?

[personal profile] dubiousalignment 2017-01-16 05:02 am (UTC)(link)
You think you can withstand real pressure? For example, if you get accused?

insincerely: ᴍᴀɴɢᴀ. (i have several christmas dates lined up)

[personal profile] insincerely 2017-01-16 05:49 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe, maybe not. Ah, it's hard to guess ahead of time, you know? It might turn out that I'm super fragile, and I'll crack under the slightest bit of pressure, hmm?

...

[Tarvek chuckles]

You don't really believe that. You don't seem to me the type of guy that'd doubt himself like that.
insincerely: ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ. (do you want to punch this face yet)

[personal profile] insincerely 2017-01-16 08:28 pm (UTC)(link)
My, such a quick assessment of me. What makes you think that?
dubiousalignment: (53)

[personal profile] dubiousalignment 2017-01-16 09:20 pm (UTC)(link)
People who refuse to listen to others either have a rather solid image of themselves or are extremely incompetent.

[Yeah, he committed their first conversation to memory. And since he doubts Shinnosuke is incompetent, then...]
insincerely: ᴍᴀɴɢᴀ. (i have several christmas dates lined up)

[personal profile] insincerely 2017-01-16 09:34 pm (UTC)(link)
[His smile widens.]

What's this? Am I being complimented?
dubiousalignment: (51)

[personal profile] dubiousalignment 2017-01-16 10:24 pm (UTC)(link)
[Tarvek takes that as kind of a confirmation of his assessment. It's always useful to have an idea of anyone's personality]

Leaving that aside, what kind of roommate do you have? Are they dangerous?
insincerely: ᴍᴀɴɢᴀ. (allow me to give you my informed opinion)

[personal profile] insincerely 2017-01-17 03:19 am (UTC)(link)
He seems rather nervous and based on first impressions, I'm inclined to think that his monkey is more competent than he is, but he could be faking it.

[Though to be fair, Shinnosuke fully believes that anyone and everyone could be lying about their true intentions. Nothing personal, Simon.]

His wanted poster also claims that he's a murderer, so take that as you will.

[Could be bullshit, could also not be.]
dubiousalignment: (31)

[personal profile] dubiousalignment 2017-01-17 03:53 am (UTC)(link)
Oh. The guy with the monkey. He says he's not a murderer, but I'm rather sure he's a criminal of some type. With some luck he'll be simply a petty thief and not something more dangerous.

[Tarvek doesn't believe for a second that monkey is 'a natural thief']
insincerely: ᴍᴀɴɢᴀ. (my headphone matches my eyes)

[personal profile] insincerely 2017-01-17 05:18 am (UTC)(link)
I'm going to love having him as my roommate, aren't I?

[#sarcasm but yeah he's... going to keep his personal belongings close to himself and out of sight...]

Well, plenty of us have questionable things written on our posters [like Shinnosuke] so he's not unusual there. I counted at least ten charges of murder, attempted murder, or suspected murder, and that was just the explicit mentions. Though someone who's trying to deny any accusation of being a problematic human being is possibly more of a threat, in some ways...

What a fantastic group we have here.

[Tarvek drags his hand over his face. Way to go with all the murderers, Sheriff, you did great]

I'm expecting eight or ten deaths before any progress is made towards ending the Sheriff's game through some way that doesn't involve only one survivor.

[That's a bit of an optimistic perspective, hohoh]
insincerely: ᴍᴀɴɢᴀ. (oh you think i care)

[personal profile] insincerely 2017-01-20 01:03 am (UTC)(link)
[how long before that perspective's inevitably shattered—]

Well, it would be nice if it stopped at only that many... It'll depend on our competence, and that of our captors.
