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.

APARTMENTS
ROOM 103
Roommates. Well, of course something that said they would become happier would be popular enough that space would be limited, right? Might as well address the others in the room.]
Ah--hello. Did you just arrive as well? [He's not sure how long this operation has been going on.]

[ROOM 105]
Mission one: 'make friends', doesn't sound too hard, but he doubts that the corporation, or his roomies, have ever dealt with anyone like him. )
『I suppose introductions are in order!
My name is Kumagawa Misogi, I am seventeen years old, my sizes are impressive and I am here because I'd like to know if someone like me can ever be "happy". I think, in that aspect, we'll all have something in common.』

ROOM 109
[He's unhappy enough to reach into his pocket and pull out a handful of knives, apparently.]
I'll give you three seconds to run out of the room that belongs to the prince.
[But soon, he cracks a wide grin and giggles.]
Ushishishi~! Better hurry, or I can't promise you won't find yourself skinned.
[Sorry, roomies. You got the crazy one.]

Room 106
Getting to know others who are also involved in this shouldn't be too hard, though it'll make things a whole lot easier knowing your other roommates first. They can be a friend, enemy, or somewhere in between, Marx doesn't know. But he's going to put on his friendly mask and give the first mission a go]
Hey hey hey, will you be my friend? [He asked the one nearest him. With large innocent-looking eyes and a playful smile, who wouldn't want to?]

ROOM 204
He stuffs his phone back into his pocket and his face is completely blank, which usually means the cogs in his head are furiously churning and he is definitely not comfortable, so naturally the one thing to do is-
smile right up at you.] I take it you've just arrived as well. I'm terribly sorry!
My name is Mr. Gabriel.

ROOM 101
[What a way to be greeted after mysteriously appearing in a room that decidedly is not yours. The owner of the outcry seems to be an overly expressive teenage boy enthralled by the phone in his hand.
After having read the text, he whirls his head around once, twice, before deciding this isn't enough and spinning his entire body in circles for a 360 degree view of his new surroundings.]
Teleportation? Sci-fi? World War III?!
The apocalypse is orange?!

ROOM 110
Tomoko wishes it had, since a moment before she didn't believe in teleportation and now, well, it's hard to deny it.
She could have done without that in her life.]
Um... [Still trembling from the sudden location change, she holds her new phone up in both hands to read the text. She's not even registering that there are three other people in here with her yet, as spooked as she is, so don't mind her if she starts quietly reading the message out loud to herself.] ...welcome to Joywick... 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....
[What.]
Joypoints?

ROOM 102
A bright grin on his face, Rin's fiddling with the phone, opening every application he can find in it. He's sprawled out on the bed face first, his legs swinging behind him. Perfectly comfortable.
He doesn't look up from the phone as he speaks.]
Hey, hey, these phones are really cool, aren't they?

ROOM 107
She fumbles with what to do, too distrusting of her surroundings to investigate. Even so, she glances about the walls with a sort of wowed expression, mostly aimed toward her company.
Eventually she gathers enough courage to speak.] Um.
Hi. I'm Mary.
[She holds out the phone.] Does this mean we are all new here?

Room 104
Well, now he's aware of his "mission", which is kind of stupid. Just making friends? Ugh, he was hoping this wouldn't be some frolickly friends-are-the-source-of-happiness project, but that seems to be the case.
Oh hey, there are other people here.]
Let me guess, you slobs are here for RECOVERjoy too. That's the name of this shameful excuse for a company you were scammed by, right?
[He wasn't aware he'd have to room with... humans.]

ROOM 108
It doesn't help much.
He spots the others in there as well, instantly feeling a little uncomfortable that they're sharing. But, this needed to be done to get what he wanted.
As his phone buzzes, he reaches out to read the message.
'Make three (3) friends to earn 200 joypoints'
That sounded simple enough, right? If everyone who arrived at once was going to get a similar message, it only made sense to take advantage of the situation. He didn’t have his fortune here, that meant he had to compromise. And there were three others in here with him.]
If you're all awake, and everyone has to take part in this welcome mission, I propose to be anyone’s friend for a set fee. Everyone would gain something from it that way, wouldn’t they?
[There's no greetings, straight to business fellow roomies!]

ROOM 206
Maybe he's a little afraid of looking away from his phone, or he's just flat-out irritated that he needs to talk to people. Wait, no, he's pretty cool with that! Or.. something. ]
... T'ch.
[ Courage, man! You can do this! We're all here for the same reason! ]

ROOM 203
Yeah. That's Tsurubami's life right now. So he's just going to sit here in Room 203 in perfect silence - making the exact face in this icon - while he waits for his roomies to show up. When they finally do show up, he doesn't even give them a chance to speak first. Don't they say he who speaks first wins, or something? ]
Ah, let's not beat around the bush. This is a terrible place to live, right?

AROUND THE CITY
THE PARK
Well, that shouldn't be hard, Blanche thinks. There are suckers on every corner. It shouldn't be too hard to find three saps to buddy up to. Besides, the more people she's nice to, the more people she'll have when she needs them around to do something for her.
The park is peaceful and even kind of pretty, and seems like a good place to start. Blanche is wandering one of the paths, chewing her lip nervously, doing a fantastic job of looking lost and confused before she spies someone. She runs over to them and taps them on the shoulder.]
Ah! I'm sorry. I don't mean to impose, but I think I've gotten lost.
[They'll probably notice that her dress doesn't look like something any modern person would wear. It's large, floofy, and very old-fashioned.]

Arcade
She'd stumbled along this arcade, and it'd been ages since she'd gotten to go to one of those! The only problem was, she didn't see any way to play them . . . but she wasn't going to give up so easily.
Kicking things always worked, right? Of course it did.]

Library or Arcade
Either way, he's decided to take advantage of his sneaking up skills and just roam around the library or the arcade until he finds someone he isn't too intimidated to talk to. Which is basically anyone if you don't look at them. It shouldn't take too long to make three friends this way he thinks to himself because three is a very small number in the grand scheme of things. And then he feels super smart and philosophical for thinking something so deep at this time of the day.
That's when either you walk past. And that's when he shouts out: ]
What's your favourite manga, stranger!?
[ If you look round then you might notice that he isn't making eye contact with you. In fact it looks like he's actively avoiding it. But there's no one else around, so he must be talking to you. ]

The Park
Thus, Elliot had decided to sit on one of the swings, digging his shoes into the sand as gloved fingers gripped the chains beside him. Three friends. Two hundred points. Sure, it wasn't much but it'd be a start, right? If he won the game then everything could be fixed. Everything would be alright again.
The boy gave himself a half hearted push. He just had to stay focused. That's all. It'd be over in no time.]

OUTSIDE THE STADIUM.
Maybe it's because things are just too similar to the Game; your cellphone buzzes with a message, and then bang! you're off in a mad scramble to get to the goal before the time limit. And with the way things had ended up... It's getting a little harder to just swallow the "do what we say, get what you want" line, that's all. Not that he has much of a choice in the matter, but that doesn't mean he has to work himself up into Mr. Bright-and-Smiley Sunshine, nope. Besides, make three friends? What are they, in preschool?
So instead of bothering with the stupid socializing thing, Neku had wandered out of his room and made his way to one of the largest buildings in sight, headphones tugged securely up over his ears and music blaring so loudly that it's audible to anyone standing close enough. ... and now he's just standing there, hands jammed in his pockets and eyes focused intently on the pristine walls in front of him.
... he's starting to wonder if maybe any of the shops in town sell spray paint. This place is begging for a splash of color. ]

KITCHEN LOBBY
Which is why the young girl is now located in the kitchen inspecting the stove and orange refrigerator. It seems up to date and clean enough... It passes standards. There is just one thing off, and she thinks it aloud.]
It's going to be hard for people to mark what food is their's...
[Maybe that was intentional considering this place, but she doesn't know that yet.]

Everything, everything is different. Coming from a world of Model A automobiles, Meredith is in a state of culture-shock to say the least. He isn't exactly the best to approach for social interaction, but well, that's what he agreed to, right?
Meredith figures 24 hours is more than enough to allow him time to get used to everything before he's caught off-guard with anyone. Right now, he's just outside the electronics shop, phone in hand and studying both it and the flashy gadgets in the window.
... He might be just a little off-put by all of this. ]

Even if he is curious about just what they've got hidden in there.
So he does the perfectly logical thing upon finding himself unable to go somewhere: he takes out the camera he brought with him and raises it to his face.
Snap.
Might as well take a picture of the place. And, of course, if anyone's near, he'll address them as he takes a second picture.]
Makes you wonder who designed that thing, huh?
