OPENING LOG.

Characters: Everyone!
Date: August 11th
Rating/Warnings: Nothing as of yet. Mark anything that qualifies a warning in your subject line!
Summary: Arrivals.
You want happiness. A company called RECOVERjoy has offered it to you, so you've signed up with them. Gaining happiness can't hurt, right?

Suddenly you're in a room, an apartment, with three other beds and unfamiliar faces. This is your assigned room, and it's quite crowded. You don't get much of a chance to think as your phone beeps--it's not your phone, maybe you've never had a phone, but there's one in your hand so you check it. It's a smart phone, nothing special about it, but now you've received a text from RECOVERjoy.

Welcome to Joywick! We're so happy to have you!

You've arrived in your assigned room, we hope you like it! Don't worry, you can move out once you've collected enough joypoints. Speaking of, if you'd like to check your balance, there's a special application that tracks it for you right on your phone! Handy, right?

... Did you check? If you did, you'll notice you have no joypoints. But don't despair! We're giving you a special mission. Make three (3) friends and get 200 joypoints! Gee, that's easy! Of course, we can't put a level on something like friendship, so just get to know people. Don't miss out on these easy points! We'll give you more information about joypoints once you're done.

Wishing you happiness,
RECOVERjoy : )


You're in this for 1 million joypoints, aren't you? Might as well get started.

(AFTER THE MISSION HAS BEEN ACCOMPLISHED OR ONCE 24 HOURS HAVE PASSED)

You receive another text from RECOVERjoy.

Great job on the mission! Or not so great job for those who didn't do it. : (

Well, you probably want more joypoints either way. Here's how! Look for another person. I bet they look fairly happy, right? Why are they happier than you? Because they've got the joypoints you need! The only way to get those joypoints is to steal theirs. How? Take their happiness away. It's easy! Maybe a rumor here, an injury there... but if you want the big points, be creative!
You want to be happy, don't you?

Wishing you happiness,
RECOVERjoy : )


... Not quite what you expected when you signed up. You can't leave, though, you still owe RECOVERjoy 500 joypoints and, well, you came here for a reason.
adieuche: (what are you doing showing me no fear)

I hardly think anyone here wants to be prey. That doesn't mean I should take much pleasure in causing someone else some unpleasantness.

[That's what he's supposed to say, at least. There's no reason to reveal what he really thinks at the moment.]
sockswithsandals: (pay attention to meeeee)

[personal profile] sockswithsandals 2012-08-26 05:13 pm (UTC)(link)
[Oh. Oh, it's his favorite question--! Even if you keep calling him -san how rude stop it.]

The same way you'd create any story, mostly. A plot, first; appropriate, though- no one cares about the horror legend of someone's bad exam grade, or something like that. Rumors help.

Then, you combine the requisite parts-- [This is complete with a strange gesture of squishing an invisible something between his hands, before he holds up fingers to count off these parts-] Cast, narration, audience. When those things combine, the truly terrifying horror legend is born!
sockswithsandals: (yes you like horror we know)

[personal profile] sockswithsandals 2012-08-26 05:26 pm (UTC)(link)
The "fear" in that event wasn't created by the pranksters. You could say they caused the real legend to take place, but they aren't the "fear."

[Wow semantics. He shakes his head and looks fairly amiable.]

You're close enough. [basic social interactions.....] I'm Yotsuya. By the way.

[personal profile] heyheyhey 2012-08-26 08:44 pm (UTC)(link)
Why not? Wouldn't you enjoy hurting someone who has hurt you?
techissexy: (i hate this lecture)

[personal profile] techissexy 2012-08-27 05:19 am (UTC)(link)
They're the cause of it, though. Without them, nothing would've happened.

[ she can argue semantics for a long, long time, though. ]

Claudia. [ she sticks out her hand. ] You're pretty alright, for a guy who likes collecting screams.
terribubble: (WITCHES * the perfect two)

[personal profile] terribubble 2012-08-27 06:32 am (UTC)(link)
Yup! A few of them.
terribubble: (GRIN *all in fair spirit)

[personal profile] terribubble 2012-08-27 06:32 am (UTC)(link)
Exactly.
terribubble: (CROWN * of elegance and nobility)

[personal profile] terribubble 2012-08-27 06:33 am (UTC)(link)
Well, you're not exactly "normal" to us so, I guess that makes us even!
ushishishi: (What are marijuana tablets?)

No, Bel loves attention like that |D +10 for ouchie punch

[personal profile] ushishishi 2012-08-29 02:57 am (UTC)(link)
No complaints here~

[The smile at the sight of the lovely blood and that darling little taunt was all Bel managed to get out before his face, his royal face was punched directly into the cheek. He only managed to deflect the blow just enough to prevent himself from flying, but it did knock him away quite a few steps.]

[Quickly, he calculated the risk/benefit for this guy. He was injured, most likely enough to consider this a win, and losing control right now wasn't the best plan of action. Perhaps he should be a coward tactfully remove himself from the battle.]

Pictures of him getting punched or wriggling on backs

[personal profile] kingshizuchan 2012-08-29 07:59 am (UTC)(link)
Good.

[Despite being injured, obviously injured despite the fact that Shizuo didn't really react to it, someone didn't realize that the other was considering leaving. It was habit you see, and routine for him to pick up something.

Which is why he went and picked up the table that people would normally use to eat on. He was more clear headed than usual, despite the anger, but this was all he really knew how to do. Though normally it'd be the fridge, not the table being picked up.

Hey, it's easy enough to dodge a thrown table, right? You might wanna, Bel.]
8fold: (I just hope you don't.)

[personal profile] 8fold 2012-08-30 02:51 am (UTC)(link)
[ Vriska looks uncomfortable. Why is this girl so sweet? ]

Yeah, no problem.
carsharkkonishi: (Fear is stronger than love)

[personal profile] carsharkkonishi 2012-08-30 06:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Good. [Sorry, Vriska. She always acts like that. But now she looks concerned.]

Is something the matter?
ushishishi: (So fucking fetch)

LIKE A PRINCE

[personal profile] ushishishi 2012-09-01 04:09 am (UTC)(link)
[Once again Bel thanked his experience with Boss and his deft skill at dodging things thrown at him. Dodging it almost easily, Bel just kept on easily as the thing crashed behind them. This destruction was just so hilarious.]

Ah, so serious~

[Standing up straight, he just grinned at Shizuo for a moment. This guy was intent on fighting, and it wouldn't help this friend finding mission if Bel lost it.]

As much as I'd like to get serious right now, it's not the time for that. That injury is enough. So ciao for now~

[With a few mores knives at Shizuo, he started his stroll out of the room.]

LIKE A FLEA >8|||

[personal profile] kingshizuchan 2012-09-01 05:47 am (UTC)(link)
[A hard stare was kept on the mophead, easily side stepping the knives as they ended up going into the stuff behind.]

Try anything and I'll kick your ass.

[But then he was out of the room, leaving Shizuo standing in the middle of the lobby and kitchen area. A second later (sooner than normal,)he looked around the room and down at the floor.]

Ah... What a mess. I should get a bandage I guess.

[And so came the matter of cleaning that up and throwing all the knives in the area. If any were the knives tied together with threads, it'd definitely lead to a new discovery for the not!bartender to come across. In the middle of putting everything in it's place, at least.

Knives in the trash. Yup.]
adieuche: (beware if you turn me on)

[personal profile] adieuche 2012-09-01 06:17 am (UTC)(link)
Regardless of any enjoyment one might get from it, that's no way to act in civilized society.

[He's not going to let on how much he'd like it, after all. He has an image to maintain.]

[personal profile] heyheyhey 2012-09-01 02:25 pm (UTC)(link)
If you say so.

[Civilized or not, Marx is going to enjoy himself. If Yagyuu doesn't want to, then it's his loss. And speaking of loss...]

Hey hey hey, wanna play a game?
guielliotine: (//Get Out)

[personal profile] guielliotine 2012-09-06 04:51 pm (UTC)(link)
[Well, she did have a point.] ...I guess so.
guielliotine: (//Get Out)

[personal profile] guielliotine 2012-09-06 04:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Two others...
gatto: (ready to be let down)

[personal profile] gatto 2012-09-06 08:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, yeah, that's right! That's the mission!

That's two hundred points, y'know?
