*waves at*

Guy I set a corpse on fire with!

[tsundeargodwhy.livejournal.com]

Ah—y-yes, hello.

[tripleteaming.livejournal.com]

What's going on? Why are we still in this place?

[tsundeargodwhy.livejournal.com]

I—unfortunately, I cannot answer those questions. We seem to—exist, but not in the strictest of senses. We can move about and move objects as long as no one else is witness to it. We also cannot make any permanent change to the state of the manor as it is.

[tripleteaming.livejournal.com]

So we can keep looking around the place, but we're--like ghosts.

[tsundeargodwhy.livejournal.com]

Essentially, yes.

[tripleteaming.livejournal.com]

Are the people here? The people outside the window, who weren't part of the game?

[tsundeargodwhy.livejournal.com]

People outside the window . . . ? Ah—no, not that I am aware of. The only people here are those who have been involved in the game.

[tripleteaming.livejournal.com]

...oh, you were--gone by then. Stupid Shepherd.

[tsundeargodwhy.livejournal.com]

What . . . what happened?

[tripleteaming.livejournal.com]

There was a tied vote, and the Shepherd...hates ties, a lot.

He hung three people outside the window--people the other teams knew--where that thing could get them, and told us to pick one to feed it. And that ended up tying, too, so...we don't know what happened to them after that. It didn't look good.

He said it was a joke. That nothing happened. I don't believe him. I should have just said I was a wolf, then.

[tsundeargodwhy.livejournal.com]

Ah—I understand.

[tripleteaming.livejournal.com]

*shivers*

I'm sorry. He started threatening others--

We'll try to help here.

[tsundeargodwhy.livejournal.com]

I would appreciate your assistance.

[tripleteaming.livejournal.com]

...anything in particular? You look like you've gotten messed around.

[tsundeargodwhy.livejournal.com]

I—think for now it would be best that we split our efforts and investigate. Things seem to change from day to day.

[tripleteaming.livejournal.com]

Yeah, we noticed. These bedrooms--they were bloody before, weren't they?

[tsundeargodwhy.livejournal.com]

Yes. The others still are, though the blood is wet now.

[tripleteaming.livejournal.com]

Eeeegh...

Did you find anything in the cleaned ones, at least?

[tsundeargodwhy.livejournal.com]

Cleaned ones? You mean—the ones we awoke in?

[tripleteaming.livejournal.com]

Yeah. I want to know if it's worth it to look around in ours.

[tsundeargodwhy.livejournal.com]

We did not find anything of note in ours.

[tripleteaming.livejournal.com]

Right, I guess we can look other places. I remember the sitting room changed...maybe the kitchen?

[tsundeargodwhy.livejournal.com]

Ah—I did not have a chance to investigate the kitchen yesterday, though I did look in the sitting room.

[tripleteaming.livejournal.com]

The sitting room was the creepiest place.

Are you going there again? I want to check the kitchen if we can still get there.
