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.

Comments

Yep!

[heyheyhey]

[Never had Marx felt so angry and humiliated in his life, unless you count the time when Kirby won the battle against him on the moon. All that work, all that planning, lost in an instant. And like now, there's nothing he can do about it.

One thing's for sure, Marx is going to make him pay in his own little way. But not now, no... he's a patient one. When all things come into play, he will strike. And he will be the one with the last laugh]

...

10 or 50?

[A few more minutes of Bel watching the little man, and his laughter eventually fades. Eventually, he rolls over onto his back, staring at the ceiling. He gives a very dismissive wave, not even bothering to look at Marx.]

You've served your purpose. You can go.

[The grin hasn't left his face the entire time.]

50

[heyheyhey]

[And Marx does what he was told, but not without his hat. He grabbed the knife holding his hat and pulled it out of the wall, only to drop it on the ground without cutting himself. He puts his hat back onto his head and stormed out of the lobby; he will fight another day, so be prepared]

[Fortunately, Bel didn't care to waste more of his knives, and at the moment he was just to lazy to get up and retrieve them. So none were thrown as Marx left the building, Bel's giggles the only things that were following them.]

[What an entertaining toy. He looked forward to more of this one.]
