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.

No! No, we can't do that!

[Not wanting any sort of situation to start he thinks quickly]

I don't have any points to pay for anything but I did bring some snacks with me. I know it's not ice-cream but will that do instead?

[personal profile] pneumonia 2012-08-11 08:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Okay that's fine!

( and she runs out the store dragging him along. )

Let's go! go! go!! Shiro thinks you might be her new best friend!
balzams: (Uneasy ● Worried)

[personal profile] balzams 2012-08-11 08:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Aa-h!

[Latvia stumbles out after her, still trying to escape her grasp]

Th-they're back at my room! Do you know where the apartment block is?

[personal profile] pneumonia 2012-08-11 08:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Uh...

( she stops then falls to the ground. she looks up at the sky and points up to the sky. )

Is it up there?
balzams: (Smile ● Alright)

[personal profile] balzams 2012-08-11 08:40 pm (UTC)(link)
N... Not exactly. Actually I'm on the bottom floor.

I think I can find my way back though. If there's a map somewhere it'll be easy. Don't worry about it, just follow me.

[At a few paces distance of course]

[personal profile] pneumonia 2012-08-11 08:42 pm (UTC)(link)
( she slinks back up and stands behind him. )

Let's go then. Shiro is starving.
balzams: (Thoughtful ● Serious)

[personal profile] balzams 2012-08-11 09:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Okay.

[After a bit of wandering Latvia finally starts to get his bearings and manages to navigate back to the building he started in. It takes a while but not too long. Making their way down the hall they eventually come to a door marked '104']

If there are other people inside, don't disturb them too much, okay?

[personal profile] pneumonia 2012-08-11 09:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Why would Shiro do that?

( she could do so much worse~ but no just give her something to snack on and she will be quiet for a while. )
balzams: (Uneasy ● Concerned)

[personal profile] balzams 2012-08-11 10:25 pm (UTC)(link)
[He peers in and then pulls the door to again]

Just wait here, okay?

[Latvia shuts the door behind him. Honestly he's not sure about bringing someone he just met into his room. In retrospect he probably shouldn't have shown her where it was in the first place. After a moment or two he comes back out with a small tin in his hands. The words 'Piena Lāse' are clearly printed on the top]

Do you like caramel?

[personal profile] pneumonia 2012-08-11 10:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Okay.

( she looks down at it calmly and then takes it. she opens it and eats a piece. after that she stares at the ground. )

Are you mad at Shiro?
balzams: (Uneasy ● Confronted)

[personal profile] balzams 2012-08-11 10:32 pm (UTC)(link)
I-is it no good? Those are the only sweets I brought with me.

[personal profile] pneumonia 2012-08-11 10:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Shiro...likes them.

( she eats another piece and pouts. )
balzams: (Smile ● Shy)

[personal profile] balzams 2012-08-11 10:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah, I'm glad! You can even keep the tin if you like, I don't mind.

[Gifts always seemed to be the fastest way to positive relations with people. Well, at least when you actually wanted to give them rather than being forced to give them]

[personal profile] pneumonia 2012-08-13 03:54 am (UTC)(link)
Really? Shiro will keep it then.

( she smiles brightly. )
balzams: (Smile ● Happy)

[personal profile] balzams 2012-08-13 08:36 am (UTC)(link)
[Latvia can't help but smile back]

I'm glad you like it. If anyone asks how many friends you've made you can show them that as proof.

[Well, friends in the loosest sense of the word]

[personal profile] pneumonia 2012-08-13 03:52 pm (UTC)(link)
( say what? she ate the whole thing while he was talking. )

Shiro wants pudding...back home Ganta and Shiro ate pudding together!

[personal profile] balzams 2012-08-13 05:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Uh... Well I don't have any pudding...

I-I'll buy you some once I have the points, okay?
