[Fin] The Murder-Free Hotel

[madface7]

Pineapple Finder Mad is in the arcade, attempting to blend in while playing Super Monkey Ball.

She thinks to herself, Why has no one said anything? Do they really not care enough to even bat an eye at me? I mean, for god's sake, I'm a completely different gender and wearing completely different clothes than usual... I could have SWORN this happened a LONG time ago. Why was I so fine with being male and didn't even question the fact that I was completely different? I don't understand anything anymore... This body SUCKS.

After many many rounds, Charis gets bored of DDR and wanders around the arcade aimlessly.

At some point she happens to come across PFM.

... who she finds completely unremarkable, on account of having never seen her before this moment.

Sylvi's Room
"So G'raha tells me you re-dyed your hair," Y'shtola says.

"... He noticed that my hair color's different, huh?" Sylvi responds equivocatingly.

[MadeOfMilk]

After lots of struggling, Minrey finally gets out of the Skee Ball machine. To his disappointment, he didn't even get any tickets out of it. He jams himself in and out of the machine multiple times in an attempt to farm tickets.

[Kennifer]

Amanda just watches Minrey for a few moments.

"You uh... you ok there?"

[AyyBee121]

Marshal, the human version of the Animal Crossing villager, walks up to the front desk. Huitzil walks up beside him.

"Are... Are you a robot?"

"I am indeed."

Marshal snorts. "You look like one of the statues that crook Redd sells."

Marshal then realizes that there is no one at the desk, and decides to ring the bell to see if anyone responds.

[artsyGeek]

Rebel confusingly looked at Minrey. "How'd you do that sort of stunt?"

[wingedcatgirl]

Front Desk
With a crackle of energy, The Host appears.

Hello and welcome to the Murder-Free Hotel, and can you believe you're literally the first person to ring that bell ever?

[MadeOfMilk]

I'm okay! I'm okay! Minrey replies, continuing to go in and out of the Skee Ball machine. Despite being at this for a while he's only managed to procure 2 tickets.

[Kennifer]

"If you say so."

Amanda just starts playing a different Skee-Ball machine, not wanting to bonk Minrey with a ball or something.

[AyyBee121]

Front Desk
With a crackle of energy, The Host appears.

Hello and welcome to the Murder-Free Hotel, and can you believe you're literally the first person to ring that bell ever?

"I am kinda surprised about that, honestly. But could I get a room?" He glances at Huitzil. "One for you too, big guy?"

"Yes, for now."

"Alright, make that two rooms."

[wingedcatgirl]

Sylvi's Room
"Well, you change it so rarely these days," Y'shtola says. "How could he not take notice?"

("The pink is lighter," G'raha had said, "and the violet streak has been replaced with a red one. It looks like she only changed the color, though...")

"I do rather like the doomed-graphic-novel-mother ponytail," Sylvi admits.

Front Desk
Two rooms it is, the host says, retrieving two room keys from seemingly nowhere and handing them over. I hope you enjoy your stay at the Murder-Free Hotel, home of the No Murders Ever Guarantee. (She's having fun with this, huh?)

[MadeOfMilk]

After only getting 4 tickets, Minrey gives up. He sets his sights on a nearby DDR machine, cheating the system by laying on the dance pad.

[madface7]

PFM sees Minrey and walks over to him.

"Hey, you OK? I don't sink zat's how you're supposed to play DDR."

[Dookie]

[color=pink] "That was fun, ya'll! Wanna go to the claow machine? I love me some prizes!" [color]

"Elizabeth" walks over to the claw machine.

Meanwhile...

A crash can be heard in the hotel, somewhere on the fifth level.

[PointMaid]

Ruby's Room/Lab

Um... Should we put this on hold and check out what that crash was? Somebody might be hurt.

Anybody in the room can see what the result of the water experiment was. It is not, however, described here.

[Dookie]

"Do you guys hear that?"

June very slowly goes up the stairs.

[artsyGeek]

Sylvester follows June upstairs. Something about the noise irks him greatly.

[PointMaid]

Ruby takes off her protective gear (disposing of it properly and washing her hands, too), and then goes to check on the crash....

[madface7]

"I'll stay behind. You fellas seem t' have it covered."

"I'll stay too."

[Kennifer]

Amanda's doing ok at the skee-ball. At least this is a game that relies more on skill than luck, though she does occasionally drop the ball in a moment of clumsiness.

Meanwhile, Holly also goes to investigate the crash.

[Dookie]

the crash turns out to be Dookie, who accidentally made his dresser fall over.

"I can explain..."

Meanwhile, a boy with green hair rings the bell in the lobby.

[Zanreo]

"Hahahaha! I'm winner!" CATS says after clearing the game. He then hears the crash... "...Huh? What happen?" he asks before going to check.

Somewhere else in the hotel, Neptune also goes to check the crash...

[PointMaid]

It's okay. My interest is piqued about what happened, though.

Ruby tries to right Dookie's dresser...

[Kennifer]

"You're not hurt, are you?"

Holly checks to make sure Dookie isn't injured.

[Dookie]

"I'm ok. I was trying to get a ball from the top of the dresser."
