w1, who tf knows

[If Crow happens past the entrance area at some point, he's going to find Wave behind the front desk! Except... she looks like she's maybe trying to be secretive about being back there? Blonde hair isn't the best for sneaking through dark shadows, especially when lights can just reflect neon green and purple off of it :')

Still, she seems to realize she's been noticed, lifting a finger to her lips. Shh!]

[chevaliered]

[ …. he’ll just wander over and prop his elbows on the counter, with a raised eyebrow. ]

…

[ and then he’ll make the shh motion back, but somehow it’s questioning. ]

[shouldbe]

In my experience, they usually don't like you going behind the front desk to snoop.

["Snoop." Look--

...

Yeah, no, that's about the size of it ok.]

[chevaliered]

Eh, what're they gonna do? Frown at you?

[ he straight up just hops the counter. look at him go. ]

What're you snooping for?

[shouldbe]

You never know. They have spy network ghosts; werewolf bouncers might be next.

[How does she even know what werewolves are look it doesn't matter--]

I'm not sure. I just wanted to see if there was anything worth finding. Maybe there's a master key back here--it might be funny to set up one of the mannequins in someone's room as a joke.

[The possibilities are endless.]

[ Slides in here! Behind the front desk are a couple of boxes of...biscuits? There's also a key holder that has a hook for each suite, but no actual keys can be found. Finally, there is an assortment of smaller decorations that are kinda messily scattered in this area. The decorations consist of stickers, small figurines, deflated balloons and the like. ]

[chevaliered]

[ oh.... biscuits. and stickers. but nothing like a list of passwords, master keys, or hidden weaponry, huh? ]

Well. There's a snack, if you wanted to face the wrath of whoever these things belong to.

[bewitchedmods]

[ crow this is not a murdergame ]

[chevaliered]

[ sometimes you need an emotional support knife. ]

[shouldbe]

[     ]

[shouldbe]

Wrath? Please. [But you know what? As long as these biscuits aren't actually dog treats or something, she's going to snipe one because why not and then offer the box to Crow. Come on, partake in this extremely petty theft, what else are you going to do here?]

I'm sure Momo would think it was funny. [...Maybe not as funny if they managed to sneak a mannequin into his suite, but it would be funny.]

[chevaliered]

Maybe he's really emotionally attached to these biscuits. You never know.

[ he says, eating one anyway. ]

But, if that's the case leaving them out here for snooping people to find's his problem.

[shouldbe]

[Crow is a gift.]

Exactly. [Hmm... what other shenanigans can they get up to while back here? Wave reaches out to pick up a sheet of stickers, examining them.] Maybe we can leave a couple of these for them to find later? I don't think we're going to find any cheat sheets after all. [With an overdramatic sigh.] I guess we'll have to solve the scavenger hunt the old-fashioned way instead.

[chevaliered]

[ he's a stinky nightmare man. ]

What, like secret bios? A list of people's preferences? Those'd be pretty handy.

[ he'll pick up a sticker sheet himself, and start peeling a couple of stickers off. ] We could always do a little decorating before we go.

[shouldbe]

[And that's why she likes him, sighs a lot!!!! Just enabling stupid gremlin mischief... Wave grins, peeling off one of her own as she responds.]

Well, we've all been assigned roles to play in this game, right? It might make things a little easier if you knew if someone was flirting with you because they wanted to or if they were doing it intending to leave you out in the cold at the end of the week.

[Not that it was necessarily the first thought in her mind when she decided to sneak behind the desk; honestly, she'd partly wanted to see if there were any other types of magazines stashed back here. But wouldn't that have been a find?]

[chevaliered]

Yeah, but if the mystery's half the point of the game they're not gonna hide the Big Data anywhere so obvious.

[ ... ]

I guess if people want that wish enough they might. But there's normally more to it than "get a date and that's that", if what I know is right. 'Sides, I didn't exactly come here looking to genuinely fall in love with anyone.

It seemed interesting. And the prize is a bonus.

[shouldbe]

So you're not here to win first, meet people later? Would you admit it if you were?

[Is she cynical? She might be cynical. Wave places a sticker of a spoopy ghost right in the center of the computer monitor.]

Though I'm the same. I came here because I wanted to leave my own world, simple as that. Anything else is extra.

[So she can understand where he's coming from.]

[chevaliered]

Good question. Would I?

[ hehe. why admit to anything, ever. ]

Like permanently? I can't leave forever, I have stuff to do. But a little pause and a break isn't a half bad deal.

[shouldbe]

You can't just repeat my own question back at me. [Even though she already expects this to lead to him doing exactly that. Why are men like this!!]

But yes, permanently. I wouldn't have gone back the first time, if I'd had a choice. So there's no way I'm doing so this time.

[chevaliered]

Pretty sure there’s nothing in the rulebook that says I can’t….

[ this man in particular. terrible creature. ]

Ahh. See, permanent’s not an option for me. I’ve got things I need to see through, y’know? But who am I to judge other people’s reasons for getting involved.

[shouldbe]

Time to get Momo to make an edit, then.

[Jots that down on the mental to-do list. But she shrugs.]

I think I'm probably the outlier here. Most people wouldn't choose to leave their home like that, right?
