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.

[Kyouko is sitting on her own bed, less enthusiastically fiddling with her phone. Under normal circumstances, she'd say that it's stupid to get excited over a pretty average smart phone, but the mission dictates that she make friends. So, okay, here goes.]

Yeah, not bad. I've never had one of these before.

[He finally looks up, still smiling the whole time.] Me neither! There weren't that many cell phones back home.

Not too bad just for joining a game, eh?

It's not totally free, is it? We owe these guys 500 points just for joining. But I guess it's not a bad tradeoff for the phone and the room.

[personal profile] gatto 2012-08-13 12:32 am (UTC)(link)
Eh? But if we wanna win, we're gonna have to get a lot more than just that! Five hundred points is nothing compared to that!

We've just gotta keep winning them!
soulfood: (yeah you're the best)

[personal profile] soulfood 2012-08-13 12:42 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I know. And if getting points is always this easy, it's gonna be a cinch.

[She grins.] So, you wanna be my friend?

[Finally putting away the phone, he sits up.] We are supposed to make friends right now, yeah?

My name's Rin! What's yours?
soulfood: (is this engaging)

Kyouko. Nice to meet you and all that.

[She puts away her own phone and glances around the room.] Think we're gonna end up with anyone else in here? It'd be nice to have the space. I feel sorta cramped already.

[personal profile] gatto 2012-08-13 07:25 am (UTC)(link)
I dunno. [He follows her gaze, before plopping back down on the bed.]

It's nice having all this space, but it wouldn't be so bad to have the place be livelier, y'know?

[Kyouko shrugs and lies back on her bed.]

I guess so. Looks like we've got plenty of neighbors, though. I don't think things will ever get too boring around here.

[ And here is Terezi, small and uncomfortable and hidden from sight behind a bed. There's a frown on her face and she turns her head around, getting a taste for her surroundings. She reads the text. After that, she stands and she takes a step forward. A grin replaces her frown and she holds onto the phone tightly. ]

That was certainly quick! I did not expect the acceptance and arrival to be so instant. Hello to you both. I am Terezi! Terezi Pyrope. It's a pleasure. It seems we'll be living together, and so I can only hope we'll get along.

[Aaaand he's back to sitting on the bed, silently eyeing this new girl. ...Before breaking out into a grin!]

Eh, looks like we aren't alone, after all!

Terezi. I'm sure we'll all get along real good!

[Kyouko manages to stick a smile on her face.]

Yep, real good.

At least the girls outnumber the guys now.
