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.

[Lithuania's expression only grows more sympathetic; her shy smile and old-fashioned attire are doing nothing to dissuade Lithuania from the idea of a princess who needs rescuing, even if the rescuing is just informing her where she dorm rooms are.]

I wouldn't be too embarrassed! New places can be confusing if you aren't used to them. The rooms are in that direction--[he points]--I could give you directions or walk you back, if you'd like.

Oh! Would you please walk me back? [Blanche gives him a bright, hopeful smile, clasping her hands in front of her.] I mean -- oh, I'm not interrupting anything you wanted to do, am I?
vytis: (it's a beautiful day)

[personal profile] vytis 2012-08-11 12:31 pm (UTC)(link)
You're not interrupting anything--I'd be happy to walk you back. It will be good for both of us to get used to going back there, I'm sure.

[He'll start off down the road once he's sure she's coming along.]

My name is Lithuania. It's nice to meet you, Miss.

[She trots after him. When he asks her name, though, she stops and curtsies to him.]

Blanche! Princess Blanche. It's nice to meet you too, Mr. Lithuania.
vytis: (don't ask me why)

Oh, I'm sorry, Your Highness then. [Well, he's really not sure if that's the specific term of address he should use here, when he doesn't know where she's from, but he'd rather make an attempt than ignore it.] What kingdom are you from?
