[Fin] Murder in the Mountains 2: Everyone heads off to a beach somewhere (END)

[TenOfSwords13]

I'll be in the sauna if you need me fur anything!

Saying that, Splithare >goes to the sauna.

[wingedcatgirl]

Vince pulls out a PDA. "Sorry, room assignments are being handled by a computer for some reason, so I only have partial numbers until... Oh, there we go, it just finished now." He quickly tells everyone their room numbers, which are as follows:

1: Overlynd C. Eyre
2: Malos
3: Yoshiko
4: Diluc
5: Yuuta and Suzume
6: Giroro
7:
8: Nico
9: Alex Splithare
10: Mike Tyson
11: Cass
12: Elizabeth "Liz" Clarke
13: Ravi
14: Samantha
15: Felicia
16: Louis and Marie

"Sorry, Felicia, I know you also requested room 8, but the computer decided that Nico got priority there. (Somehow...)"

[MadameButterflyKnife]

"Time's a bit of a construct."

[PopcornPie]

"All right, room 8! Better go put my medicine there.," Nico departed from Louis and Marie, carrying a box of little colorful pills.

> Look for his room

[Kennifer]

>Retrieve the Piplup and head to room 15

[MadameButterflyKnife]

Ravi watches Nico leave, before looking to the others. "Someone keep an eye on the kid. Don't want him OD'ing in a hot tub or something like that."

[Whistle]

We're not dating, we've been to--
Liz realizes the brainfart she just had.
...Oh, my bad. August 20, 2022.

Liz sees everyone else leaving.

>grabs backpack, heads toward her room... 12, was it?

[MadameButterflyKnife]

> head up to room 13

[TheOtherCG]

"...2022? Wait..."
The two make a grim realization.
"That's several centuries from now. Did we go forward into the future? Oh no! The children!"
Louis and Marie proceed to panic. While they stayed close to each other, it's clear to others that they're currently anxious and freaking out.

>Splithare goes to the sauna (@TenOfSwords13)
And what a sauna it is! Hot steamy goodness melts all the soreness right out of Splithare's muscles like nothing else.

>Look for his room (@PopcornPie)
With the provided map, Nico has no trouble finding his way to room 8.
It's a nice room! A bed, a dresser, an en suite, a little fridge to keep stuff in, a TV with various channels and movies - though it's a bit undersized, presumably to entice people into the rec room. Presumably all the bedrooms look about the same.

>Retrieve the Piplup and head to room 15 (@Kennifer)
Felicia picks up her little floofball and heads to her nice comfy room. Yep, it's the same as Nico's, though of course Felicia hasn't seen Nico's and has no way of making that comparison. Still, it is.

>grabs backpack, heads toward her room... 12, was it? (@Whistle)
12 it was, and Liz gets to her room in quick order.

>head up to room 13 (@MadameButterflyKnife)
Ravi, too, heads to his room.

[PopcornPie]

Nico just squints at his room. "Not right. Two of the three core entertainments are missing."

>Search for manga and/or video games.

[PointMaid]

...Thanks for the offer. Samantha says to Mike. I think I can handle the suitcase, though, I've gotten it this far, and it does have wheels. I drag it through campus all the time, actually.

With that, she > Checks that Nico's ok, before heading up to her own room 14 to put her luggage away

[Mr. Lee Hammer]

Dath no problem, then!, Mike says right before he

>heads to the gym and work out

[Whistle]

Liz looks at her room... oddly claustrophobic. But what to be expected from such a spa? All-inclusive trip, no less... just take care of everything.

She tosses her bag onto the bed, starts to unpack. Takes out a picture frame of her and her girlfriend—a fox girl, with a robotic left arm—and places it on the nightstand.

Takes off her jacket and shoes, sits on the bed.

"Here we are Autumn... Happy birthday."

[Dookie]

Cass heads to her room, before > going to the restaurant

[Weirdguy149]

>Drop off the bottle of booze in your room before heading off to the restaurant.

"I wonder what's available right now."

[Florien]

Suddenly, a strange figure in a post officer uniform appears, with an abnormally large bag, and recites a pledge for no apparent reason.

Neither Rain, nor Snow, nor Sleet, nor Hail, nor a powerful entity kidnapping everyone and locking them in a mansion or amusement park, nor a computer virus, nor a cult involving that virus, nor a dictator from the stars, nor a spy, nor a political officer, nor gang violence, nor a cult in a mountainous landscape, nor a powerful entity locking people in a camp or an arcade, nor an actual war, nor a zombie outbreak, nor a pokémon incident, nor a return to college leading to violence, nor witch or witches, nor a prison beneath the world, nor a laboratory in the snow or the city, nor an obnoxious streamer, nor anything else for that matter, will stop a mailentity from completing hir appointed rounds!

...there's dead silence for a moment.

Overlynd C. Eyre, USPS. Anyone need stamps?

[Zanreo]

A girl with glasses and messy, black hair enters her room to drop off her stuff... and exits it not too long after, looking around her. "Wait, uh, where the hell did my phone go? Did I drop it somewhere...?"

[Whistle]

After getting adjusted and doing a bit of makeup, Liz

>Enters the restaurant

[Magolor]

Eventually he engages the mess too. Given this is a resort or some sort, the selection is rather lavish compared to what he's well used to. Since this is at some hot springs he was staying a few nights over, he just grabs himself something simple. No need to indulge in anything extra, even if this was all paid for.

...

He eats his meal at a reserved pace, and in solitude, it seems. Wonder what's up with him? Perhaps he needs to be approached... or provoked.

[wingedcatgirl]

>Search for manga and/or video games. (@PopcornPie)
Well, there aren't any in the bedroom. Maybe the rec room will have some.

>Checks that Nico's ok, before heading up to her own room 14 to put her luggage away (@PointMaid)
Nico seems to be grumbling about a lack of manga and video games, but otherwise fine. Putting luggage away goes without incident.

>heads to the gym and work out (@Matthew)
Aww yeaaaaaah feel that burn! Mike Tyson gains +1 STR! ... It's useless because this game doesn't have RPG elements, but he still gains it!

>Restaurant (@Dookie, @Weirdguy149, @Whistle, @Magolor)
A nondescript waitstaff shows Cass, Malos, and Liz to tables right near Giroro's - apparently they want to encourage diners to socialize - and hands them all menus. The restaurant offers a nice little range of delicious and health-conscious options for all your relaxation needs... and some absolutely decadent desserts. And the best part is, it's no extra charge.

[PopcornPie]

Nico's mood was significantly numbed by the lack of manga and video games. "This stinks! Anime without manga! Just like prison. All three need to be together to create harmony, right?" He glanced back to Samantha.

>Check out the rec room.

[Whistle]

Liz looks at all the people around her. It's quite an interesting group. Think. Try to break the ice a bit.
That frog's meal looks rather interesting. Maybe talk to them?
Hey Frog Thing. What are you eating?
F--Frog Thing?

[Caret]

A girl with glasses and messy, black hair enters her room to drop off her stuff... and exits it not too long after, looking around her. "Wait, uh, where the hell did my phone go? Did I drop it somewhere...?"

"Don't worry! Your phones are being kept in a safe place above ground." Vince hands Yoshiko a copy of the spa's cell phone policy. "In order to encourage a relaxing, social environment, we prohibit cell phone use. If anything pops up regarding the outside world, I can handle it for you."

[Mr. Lee Hammer]

Dat's right! I'm all pumped now! I could box a horse right about now! Now wherth da food?

> Try to find some food to pig out on, preferably something that has a lot of protein in it
